Horror!

Sacrilege! Horror! A pox on whomever did this!

I just heard the "exclusive" radio dance remix version of U2's "With or Without You," arguably one of the all-time best slow songs EVER. The driving dance rhythm and funky pseudo-70s backing tracks almost smother Bono's singing.

How could they do this? Who said, "Let's take a perfect song, and "improve" it" with dance drum beats and fast rhythm guitar work?

The horror! The horror!


AAAAARRRRRRGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

    Oh you're not serious. Please tell me you're not serious. It's bad enough that Cookie Monster is cutting down on cookies, but now this? Maybe the world really is coming to an end.

    No messing with The Joshua Tree, people. It's the same as the remake of Psycho - waste. of. time. You can't improve it, so why attempt to wreck what's already great by a "tribute"?
