*waves hands* Me! Me! I had the 45 with that on it (I can never remember which
of the singles it was, though), and when I heard the new version was a little
disappointed. All in all, I think it's a pretty good comp., but more songs
from _Rattle and Hum_ than _The Joshua Tree_ on a "best of"? I certainly could
have done without one of the _R&H_ songs in exchange for "Gloria" or "One Tree
Hill" or "A Sort of Homecoming". And the b-sides are so cool to have on CD
finally.
