   Desire
She's the candle
burning in my room
I'm like the needle
needle and spoon
Over the counter
with a shotgun
Pretty soon, everybody got one

Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture Beaver Average	#1 by Beaver Butt at Dec 11, 1975 at 3:30 PM EST
	This is my probably my favorite song by U2. I think this song is about the band's desire for fame and how it's finally being fufilled(Rattle and Hum came out after huge success of The Joshua Tree). Also, in the line "Like a preacher stealing hearts in a travelling show, for love or money, money, money." Bono is questioning himself whether he is doing this because he loves music or because he has a desire to stay famous.

	"And the fever, when I'm beside her" I believe in some live performances Bono has changed "beside" to "inside". Not sure if he was told by the record company he couldn't have such a direct sexual reference on the album or what...
