Lyrics:
The sea it swells like a sore head and the night it is aching
Two lovers lie with no sheets on their bed
And the day it is breaking
On rainy days we'd go swimming out
On rainy days swimming in the sound
On rainy days we'd go swimming out
You're in my mind all of the time
I know that's not enough
If the sky can crack there must be someway back
For love and only love
Electrical Storm
Electrical Storm
Baby don't cry
Car alarm won't let you back to sleep
You're kept awake dreaming someone elses dream
Coffee is cold but it'll get you through
Compromise that's nothing new to you.
Let's see colours that have never been seen
Let's go places no one else has been
You're in my mind all of the time
I know that's not enough
Well if the sky can crack there must be someway back
To love and only love
Electrical storm x 3
Baby don't cry
It's hot as hell, honey in this room
Sure hope the weather will break soon
The air is heavy, heavy as a truck
We need the rain to wash away our bad luck
Well if the sky can crack there must be some way back
To love and only love
Electrical storm x 3
Baby don't cry x 3

Larry is so banging hot, and Samantha has such an emotive face. Perfect casting.

[@Katalavena]

I could be another victim of the Mandela effect, but I remember watching the Making the video of this one and Bono was like: yep buddy (Larry), it's your turn to be the all over the video, i'll be here shoting my 2 scenes and resting. Or something of the sort.

[@jauxone]

the most underrated song of this group ever

[@actual-360]

This song kept me alive when it came out. Everything was crashing down: markets, buildings, my personal life. “If the sky can crack there must be some way back” was like a prayer I said over and over until it was over.

Masterpiece. Will always be my favourite U2 song. And the William Orbit touch is the cherry on top. It's so ethereal and dreamy.

[@elpatron762]

Where is the William orbit touch supposed to be?

[@zonesquestiloveunderworld]

​@@elpatron762This is his remix of "Electrical Storm" - the original version is rather different. He also produced the track. If you're familiar with Orbit his distinct style is very recognisable, too.

[@ozalma4731]

A lot of U2's songs have become a soundtrack to my life, the good and the bad. This song is beautiful in so many ways, this song I can say for the loving part of my married life it is the song for the end of my marriage. Divorce is always hard not to mention putting to rest all of life's aspirations and raising of children together. Looking at life afterwards takes time to sift out the good from the past comes perseverance and courage to be good with being oneself alone. Not lonely just not needing to be codependent with anyone. I love who I am today, maybe someday I will be able to share my life with someone else. Maybe....

My favorite U2 song. I was hooked when i heard intro alone, for the first time back in 2002 when I was 14 years old. I also remember how this version always reminded me of Madonna' s "Ray of Light" sound, not knowing that William Orbit actually produced this masterpiece.🙂

[@savvasv.7078]

Same here... 14 when i first listened to that magnificent breeze of sound back in 2002! One might not had been able to tell then but now one can be certain, songs like this masterpiece have defined an era and even had an impact on the way one would view the world, from there on. At least i know i am one...
