u2hype: "Has anybody noticed how very similar it sounds to "All Because of You"? The guitar, especially in the beginning is almost exact"

That's often the case with b-sides because U2's songwriting process is often non-linear, they jam and record what they do and then they go back and start refining each of those things into tunes... what happens is pieces of songs show up again in unused tracks or in earlier versions of songs...

As an example, "Always" is musically almost identical to "Beautiful Day," and "Lady With the Spinning Head" ends almost the same was as "The Fly."

To add to that, "Fire" evolved from "Saturday night" and "Vertigo" from "native son".
