Well, I really fell in love with that song. I'm sorry for being an newbie on music, the first version I ever heard from the beginning till end was the Gareth Gates cover and so I got to know the Righteous Brothers version, which is 1000 times better. But this one so special to me, I can't stop listening to Bono's incredible sexy voice. =) Enjoy. (..less)
