OTHER NOTES
All I Want is You was the final song released to promote Rattle and Hum.  The single contained both an Edit version and the original album version with the strings portion intact. The longer version also made it to the Best of 1980-1990 release.

All I Want is You remains a song that is performed live more than 10 years after it's release. In 2000 it was performed at the preview party for U2's new album at the Manray club, and this performance appears on the Stuck in a Moment CD Single.
Previous Single:  When Love Comes to Town (1989)
Next Single:  The Fly (1991)
