"Miracle Drug" by itself is worth the price of this album. I love that The Edge sings the bridge and sounds so much like Bono.

On another album that I just reviewed, Neil Peart says: "Even love must be limited by time."

On this album, Bono says: "Of science and the human heart, there is no limit." And: "Love makes nonsense of space, and time . . . will disappear, love and logic keep us clear."

I'm sorry, Neil, but I'm going to have to go with Bono on this one! (

First words

Quotations

I am you and you are mine
Love makes nonsense of space
And time will disappear
Love and logic keep us clear
Reason is on our side, love
The songs are in your eyes
I see them when you smile
I've had enough of romantic love
I'd give it up, yeah, I'd give it up
For a miracle, a miracle drug
