I heard this song on the Rattle and Hum cd before I ever heard the original. Now for some reason I don't really like the original... When I heard the original for the first time a few months ago I was disapointed because I guess I was expecting it to sound like this version. I don't really know why that is, that I like this better, it might be because I'm more used to Bonos voice, which is strange because I was raised on the Beatles... In any case I'd prefer to listen to this cover than to listen to the original. I agree the opening line is awesome.
