| So so ....overated. |
| Appropriately titled. Ok...it's not bad...but I'm ssssooo sick of this band. Especially the wailer. |
| 7 in the morning in Toulouse. Time to prepare to go to work. This version live of Bad give me joy and energy so strong ! What a really magic gift for me Really really , THANK YOU RP ! |
| NICE! Can you play some more Irish bands and tunes for St. Paddy's Day, please, RP? |

| Not so much bad as bloody awful. A tuneless droning noise. |
| Again!?!? You know I turn off RP everytime U2 comes on. That's at least twice a day of late. Please, RP needs a Bono Limit! |
| Everybody in my church loves this live version... |

From the angle we were at we could watch the musicians very closely: watch Edge work the guitars, roadies scurrying around, Bono's expressions and demeanor change with each song. And what was even cooler is that the band realized we were all back there and turned around and played to us from time to time. We were sooooo close it was just magical — you could almost feel the waves of musical vibrations emanating from the stage. I'll never forget it, and this song brings it back so clearly every time I hear it. Wow - I was at that show! In the same place - about 10 rows up from the stage above and to the right behind Larry... Bono climbed up on the drum kit and sand about 3 songs to US during the show! |
| Jeez this a long song, I am on my third click of the PSD! |

But that's why I have my own playlists, for occasions when RP is not my cup o'. Because I cannot hear RP anytime, I HAVE this song on my playlist ... ;-) What a great bad; have seen them live with this song in Stuttgart 1985 / Neckarstadion an later on air at Live Aid; never forget it... |
| Good U2, before the new wore off. |
| I'm not the greatest U2 fan, but this song gives me chills every times I hear it. Reminds me of great sex (and what's great sex without repetition!) - starts out slow, then keeps slowly builidng until...then softly fades outs. |
ppoppOct 11, 2012 - 15:52 | Nice connection! U2 used to play an exert of Walk On The Wild Side during Bad on The Joshua Tree Tour (and maybe others too). |

| Everything that sucked about the 80s. Reminds me of jocks pumping their fists and bouncing back and forth on their firmly planted feet on the dance floor. Kill me next time. Sorry, I hate this band, had to get that off my chest :) |

| This is the version of this magnificent song that made me a true believer in this band. Still possibly my favorite track from the lads. |
