This performance of "Staring at the Sun", played by Bono and the Edge as part of an acoustic set at the PopMart concerts, was a departure from the version on the Pop album. It was a more subtle, vocal-orientated version, with only the two guitars and some harmonies during the choruses.
Pop was the only U2 album that U2 did not play a single song from for the full duration of their tour. "Staring at the Sun" was performed live during U2's 2018 Experience + Innocence Tour, which Andy Greene of Rolling Stone described as "a rare onstage acknowledgment that Pop is a thing that happened."
Irish rock band referred to those who lost their lives as ‘stars of David’ in rewritten lyrics of their song ‘Pride (In the Name of Love)’
U2's Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr. play bass and drums respectively for the track (they did not appear on the original recording). Sinatra changes the pronouns in the lyrics from a first-person perspective to a third-person, presumably to refer to her father. Canadian singer Matt Dusk recorded the song for his album, Two Shots.
Against many odds — of age, of personal change, of shifts in attitude about authenticity and delusions of grandeur — “U2:UV” does come off managing to feel like actual rock ‘n’ roll.
