So far, this is my favorite track on the newly released U2 album, No Line on the Horizon.

It’s funny because while I prefer this live version to the recorded one on the CD, the harmonies here are definitely off. Perfection isn’t always perfect.

The melody for the verses of Get on Your Boots reminds me a lot of Bob Dylan’s Highway 61 Revisited.
