Get on Your Boots

So far, this is my favorite track on the newly released U2 album, No Line on the Horizon. I was looking for a live version I saw somewhere, though I don't think the one below is what I remember seeing. It's funny because while I prefer this live version to the recorded one on the CD, the harmonies here are definitely off. Perfection isn't always perfect.



The melody for the verses of Get on Your Boots reminds me a lot of Bob Dylan's Highway 61 Revisited.

Definite echoes of Dylan.
