A left over from the Achtung Baby recording sessions, the song was released to celebrate the 20th anniversary of what were arguably U2's richest recording sessions (any session that One or Love is Blindness falls out of must be rich!)
Lyrics:
Once I had fame
I was full of pride
Well, there were a lot of friends
Always by my side
But my luck ran dry
Now my friends begin to hide
Everybody loves a winner
Everybody loves a winner
When you lose, you lose alone
Everywhere I turned
There was a hello and a smile
I never thought they'd be gone
After a while
Oh, that big road ran down
And the smiles turned to frowns
Everybody loves a winner
Everybody loves a winner
But when you lose, you lose alone
Hands to heaven that I would be true
To get back that love
There's nothing I wouldn't do
But I learned and I lost
And now I paid the cost
Everybody loves a winner
Everybody loves a winner
Everybody loves a winner
But when you lose, you lose alone
U2 also released Blow Your House Down and Down all the Days
