    I grew up on U2, from the early 80's to today...this is great music and real talent. I think talent like this is a long way way from what people 50 years from now, will be able to refer to as their early influences. Music is so much more about image these days, that musical talent seems to take a distant back seat, and I only see that worsening.....many of the great bands of yesterday wouldn't get a chance today

      All kidding aside, I’ve been a mega fan of these guys since the first time I ever heard Bad on the radio in 1984. So I am approaching this from the perspective of someone who loves these guys. But to say they are undeniably the best player in the world is absurd.

    I have been following them since their first album came out when I was in high school. And to this day they are one of my all time favourite bands. My wife and I have seen them in concert a couple of times and what a treat that was. But when we visited New York, we were lucky enough to get into the studio audience for that day's taping of Letterman, and were thrilled to see that these two greats were on the guest list to be on the show....but when they surprisingly decided to do this song while sitting there, brought tears to our eyes and still does. This was one of the best musical experiences we ever have had.

Gibson’s Pete Townshend SJ-200 Signature Artist Series guitar is a painstaking recreation of the 1960s acoustic he used to compose such classic hits as “Pinball Wizard” from the legendary 1969 rock opera Tommy, and the Who concert staple “Won’t Get Fooled Again.” This new version-which Townshend uses regularly on stage-has many of the same features as his vintage J-200, but with several modern appointments.

    I'm not afraid
    Of anything in this world
    There's nothing you can throw at me
    That I haven't already heard
    I'm just trying to find
    A decent melody
    A song that I can sing
    In my own company
    I never thought you were a fool
    But darling, look at you (Ooh)
    You gotta stand up straight, carry your own weight
    These tears are going nowhere baby
    You've got to get yourself together
    You've got stuck in a moment
    And now you can't get out of it
    Don't say that later will be better
    Now you're stuck in a moment
    And you can't get out of it
    I will not forsake
    The colors that you bring
    The nights you filled with fireworks
    They left you with nothing
    I am still enchanted
    By the light you brought to me
    I listen through your ears
    Through your eyes I can see
    You are such a fool
    To worry like you do. Oh
    I know it's tough
    And you can never get enough
    Of what you don't really need now
    My, oh my
    You've got to get yourself together
    You've got stuck in a moment
    And you can't get out of it
    Oh love, look at you now
    You've got yourself stuck in a moment
    And you can't get out of it
    I was unconscious, half asleep
    The water is warm 'til you discover how deep
    I wasn't jumping, for me it was a fall
    It's a long way down, to nothing at all
    You've got to get yourself together
    You've got stuck in a moment
    And you can't get out of it
    Don't say that later will be better
    Now you're stuck in a moment
    And you can't get out of it
    And if the night runs over
    And if the day won't last
    And if your way should falter
    Along the stony paths
    And if, and if the night runs over
    And if, the day won't last
    And if your way should falter
    Along this stony paths
    It's just a moment

    I love this song - I think that most of all of us could relate to it at some time. I think the emotion in Bono's voice was genuine. I remember Jimmy Carr as a guest on a podcast talking (respectfully and not as part of any gag) about the subject of someone passing in such a way. (In general he - wasn't talking about Micheal Hutchence). Jimmy made the comment "A permanent solution to a temporary problem".
    This might not always be the case but I think I could hear this frustration and anger in the song.
