...is a warm gun?
what eventually became "Pull The Trigger" from Turn Off The Dark, a.k.a. the closest thing to Songs Of Ascent we have right now. I like some elements from that and some elements from this, from an earlier iteration of Dismantle where the bomb theme was more recurrent... does the title remind anyone else of the Happiness Is A Warm Gun cover from the Last Night On Earth single??

This is a rocking track
I'm glad this one left the vault.

Tiene ese sonido peculiar de como desmantelar una bomba, algo floja la guitarra en ocasiones pero mantiene la armonía que se necesita, el solo muy característico de la banda, así como el puente, que nos muestra la increíble voz de Bono. Genial !!

Please U2 Please U2 Please...
... start touring again in 2025 including European shows! Seeing you in the Sphere in Vegas was magnificent. However, a bit of a travel to get there from The Netherlands to see your show. Happiness sounds amazing, can't wait to hear this song and other reassembled atomic bombs live!

Uplifting
Love this song! I get happy every time I hear it. Way to go guys! Another home run. I can’t believe they would put this one in the vault to see the light of day so many years later. I guess that’s just U2.
