One of U2’s most under-appreciated songs, in my opinion, is the A-side from the early single, Another Day.

Read MoreHappy new year, fellow U2 fans! As I’m sitting at LAX awaiting a flight to New York City, I’m praying that all will be quiet on New Year’s Day and the days leading up to it – no protests, no violence, no deadly attacks on innocent police officers or innocent people, period.
