Numb Lyrics

Note: U2 has released different versions of most singles in different countries. We are not showing every cover image in this space, just one that's representative of each release.

"'Numb' was a left-over from 'Achtung Baby' called 'Down All The Days.' The song didn't really work but the instrumental backing was interesting. Brian added some fantastic keyboards. Then when we were trying to get a final running order together for 'Zooropa,' we had this backing track but we didn't know what to do with it. Edge took off into another studio to demo a few ideas, and, within a few hours, had worked out this way of almost rapping over it. I think it is a sonic masterpiece and Edge's delivery is fantastic." - Adam Clayton, U2 By U2 2006

Rob, Rob, Rob, wake up. Rob, well listen, listen. Look, we've been offered the new U2 remix, right? It's called Numb or something. I don't know whats it like but it might be quite good. And even if it isn't, if it's no good, we just sell the multitracks down at Camden Lock and, y'know, and make a bit money that way. But anyway, when you wake up, give me a ring. And I'm gonna call at the studio and book some time. Oh yeah, I wanna use a full string section, ok?
