My theory why U2 tried to bury this song is the lyrics were probably frequently misinterpreted.
..."I believe in the bells of Christchurch, ringing for this land. I believe in the cells of Mount Joy doesn't understand.
I believe in the walls of Jericho. I believe they're coming down
I belive in this city's children
I believe the trumpet's sound..."
...I believe...
MY GOD!!!...POWERFUL stuff!
"A CELEBRATION" is one of the greatest songs of first time of the U2 carreer.
It seems punk but isnt!
This song give us all the energy of the band in the early of 80´s.
