U2--Dancing Barefoot (Patti Smith) 1989

[@brianmcdonald9298]

Always loved this version. Needs to be played very late at night with someone you love

[@calanthiarose]

Good Idea

[@jjpallas68]

Agreed❤

[@politruc6030]

R.I.P. Ivan Kral - a composer of this great song.

[@revwahfair]

Ivan was cool. I would talk to him occasionally in the 2000's when he lived north of Ann Arbor on the Huron River. Had great conversations and I never met him. We would message each other from time to time.

[@morand-gw7xn]

Bono has a bad ass fucking distinctive voice , that few if any could replicate, throw in his vocal range..... Complimented by three life long Mates of equally skilled musicians that stayed together for 40yrs, and tracks like this are the result... Fucking brilliant.

[@deplorableaussie6749]

Yep, absolute facts .

[@darrellhiatt6500]

Heard this on radio in very late 80's and never knew a Cover. I knew U2, very nice

[@reyesnoemi4229]

O leeeeeeeee

[@tv2109]

Definitely one of the greatest covers ever!

It's ok... It's not great... The Mission cover of this is far better. And I don't really like The Mission that much 😝

[@ChelseyEasley]

@ I listened to it out of curiosity. Definitely disagree.

[@GlorifiedTruth]

A matter of taste, I guess. I think U2 kills this, and I'm not a huge fan.

[@allanmckenzie6696]

Simple Minds do a better cover

[@cahillgreg]

@@allanmckenzie6696 'better' in a Bay City Rollers way

[@sschlieper9483]

Rarely a cover is better than the original. This is one.

Are you on drugs or something

[@sschlieper9483]

@ Apparently you are though. Patti Smith is amazing but this version blows hers away.

[@MrHeavyduty007]

@@sschlieper9483 - 100% agree with you!!

[@sroundy4118]

Disagree. I prefer Patti’s rawer version.

[@shanghaiffgg]

well, sometimes its not about which is better.sometimes they both sit in the same mood@@sschlieper9483

[@fabriziosorano27]

The Edge's backing vocals blew my mind

[@winterlynn9012]

I never knew as a preteen that this was a cover, I discovered it in 94 thanks to the movie "Threesome " Maybe because I heard and grew up with this version, I prefer it over the Patti Smith version but it's the only version that I can not only play over and over again, but one that I can truly say is in my top 5 of favorite songs.

[@RockMusicVideos]

In 2004, this song was ranked number 323 on Rolling Stone '​s list of "The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time".

[@pulchritudohumana7563]

I had no idea it was a cover. Love this song by U2

[@slidin122]

I didn’t either until I saw Daisy Jones and the Six !

[@monikaj2889]

Oh my🙈 I feel offended as I love Patti Smith 😂

[@SOGNAMETAL]

Holy fucking fakk, first time ever I listened to this song was mid 90's, I was in high school and I'm still getting the exact same eargasms and stunning feelings as when I was a kid every single time I listen to this timeless masterpiece, can't wait to see them next July, even though I'm sure they will never play this song live. Cheers to all the folks who feel levitated by this song.

[@ezrhino100]

U2 are an incredible cover band. They pick only songs that they will nail perfectly. All of their covers are classics...

[@dominikj2267]

i love how u2 doesn't over treat songs making them bad ass on their own

[@louisristaino5973]

Great debate on what's the best version the original Patti Smith or U2 absolute toss up really both great in the own ways

[@Rash_Situation]

@@louisristaino5973 Agree. I would never say one is better than the other. That's like saying one emotion is better than another. All of them make art, life, etc. a well-rounded experience.

So smooth ! I come back to this cover consistently as to me I think its the coolest patti smith cover out of hundreds. Smooth , pleasant , but yet stimulating . Leave it to bono

[@hectorvortac]

Finally listening to this remake for the first time. I am a big fan of U2 and don't hate this take at all, but to say it blows away Patti Smith's version I just don't understand. I hate to say this but they seem to have taken out all of Patti's emotion and mailed it in.

[@montycantsin8861]

Agreed. Like the shallow cover of Because The Night by Natalie Merchant. I like U2 and Natalie Merchant, but I like them better when they did their own thing.

[@lucamontanarilughi530]

E sti cazzi?

[@hectorvortac]

non chiaro. traduzione?

[@TheRadioAteMyTV]

To each their own. I like both versions but I prefer this one so much more because of the final half. Bono just sings it better and for me, way more passion.

[@Omgirrl]

Love that cover. Love the Feelies.

[@ElisaSilva-rs4lk]

Great song, love U2's performance. But learned about the original later and I have to say I prefer Patti Smith.
