From part of a Feb.1992 letter to the editor (B.C.

Dave Langille could only find U2 "spending their time in the book of Job." When he listens again he will hear: in their song 'Mysterious Ways,' which everybody seems to have as Number One everywhere, U2 ramming the 2nd Chapter of Acts down worldly throats; on 'Till the End of the World' an exquisite presentation of the Gospel account of The Betrayal, where a plain recitation of the biblical account is at the same time a modern believer’s realization that he, like all of us, has played Judas: "In the Garden I was playing the tart… I kissed your lips and broke your heart." And then, at the most glorious of Christian moments: "In waves of regret, waves of joy… I reached out for the One I tried to destroy." Perhaps the best lyric is from ‘Mysterious Ways' -- sung, you recall, on every dance floor in the world this past month -- and is the triumphant Christian epitaph of the sixties Man-Is-Wonderful-Drugs-Will-Set-Us-Free ethos. Jimi Hendrix, bless him, wrote the exemplary lyric of the psychedelic age, ‘Scuse me while I kiss the sky.’ To which absolutely no one else but Bono could reply: "If you want to kiss the sky… Better learn how to kneel. On your knees, boy!"

You made me laugh with the song. I ordered the limited color edition. Greetings from Mexico!
I’m glad @Guillermo 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🤣🤣🤣 - blessings from South Africa 🇿🇦
It’s great it’s being rereleased but 35 euro on iTunes is pretty much daylight robbery
Nice video but sounds much better on mute
I agree…
