    i did this song in central china once in a public square (if you've ever been there you'll know what it's like) a Chinese girl who sang like an angle was playing and gave me the "stage".. So many people began to gather around, and it was a such beautiful thing. "she runs through the streets with her eyes painted red, under the black belly of a cloud in the rain" ... Thank you U2, for giving the world yet another wonderful moment to remember, even if you couldn't be there to see.. Through my not so great version, you reached out and touched the hearts of a thousand people on the other side of the world.. always my love and respect .U2 for the world

The vibrations that emanate from this song lifts me up to God and His divine power. I was 16 when I first heard this song and it gave me so much hope. I first heard "a la la de day" as "I have a lot of days" and the power that that phrase gave me is beyond words... The most beautiful lyrics of hope ever written can be found in this song. I'm in my 40s now and this still moves me to my core. ❤💛❤🧡❤💛❤ Thank you from the bottom of my heart.🦄🤍
