You're the Reason I Sing

Is it weird to read the lyrics to an album full of songs you haven't heard yet? I don't know, but I'm sure glad I did. Somehow, a German fansite was leaked the full lyrics from How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb and if you're at all a fan of U2, you absolutely must check them out. "Sometimes You Can't Make it On Your Own," the song Bono wrote and sang for his father's funeral, is just stunning. And I really don't even know what to say about "Yahweh" other than I love it.

They've taken them down, but the lyrics are still on the Google cache. I love Yaweh as well, the bridge on "Miracle Drug" blows me away, and "A Man and A Woman" and "Original of the Species" are some sizzling love songs...

Hey, John -- thanks for commenting on my blog and letting me know about this! The lyrics rock! I can't wait to get my grubby little hands on this album...
