Catchy Hit, Great Mixes

"30 years on, U2 are still "squeezing sparks of light" from their extraordinary career. Has any band ever sounded this vital this late in the game? None that I can think of. NO LINE is, simply enough, U2's best record since '91's ACHTUNG BABY, and here is its most promising single.
"I'll Go Crazy" is one of the catchiest uptempo singles U2 have ever released. Those who were lucky enough to catch the band on the U2360 stadium tour know that "Crazy" was radically retooled into a crowd-pleasing techno-stomper, and the mixes on this single give you a taste of how well this song lends itself to being remixed.
But, regarding the song itself: Bono's muli-faceted lyrics blend humor with wisdom, passion with pathos, drama with whimsy. "Crazy" is about stepping outside your safety zone and experiencing life to the fullest.
The music is vintage Edge, and also multifaceted, with his trademarked resounding melodies, jangling rhythms, and crunching riff-action. The track is topped off with lush synth-work, smooth production, and driving drums and bass from Larry and Adam. The overall sound quality on all three tracks is superb.
If you like U2, and you like remix singles, this is one of their best of the decade."
U2's best this decade!!!!

"I'll Go Crazy If I Don't Go Crazy Tonight. This song is easily the best on the new album -which is also great-if not the best of U2's decade. The song is from the blackberry commercial and the animated music video. It's lyrics, melody, and beat are superb. This discs contains several remixes and the single version, it does not include the blackberry version, but the single/album version is very similar to that. This is a must have for a U2 fan, or a great song to start with for new U2 fans. GREAT SONG!"
