Vertigo is the first single from U2's
2004 album, How
to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb. The single screamed onto
radio stations in September of 2004 and has begun makng a climb
on charts based on radio play alone.
The single featured several songs, including a
cover of Kraftwerk's "Neon Lights" and a new b-side
produced by Brian Eno and Daniel Lanois entitled "Are You
Gonna Wait Forever", presumably a left over from the All
That You Can't Leave Behind recording sessions with these
two producers. To fill out the single releases are various
mixes by Jacknife Lee of the title track. The instrumental
and the 12" version mixes are the same mix only one lacks
vocals. The 10" mix is a different mix of the song.
A promotional single was released to radio in
September 2004 for this song.
The version of Vertigo contained on these
promos isn't the exact same as the version on the album.
The version on the single and on the single promo is actually
slightly edited, and is missing a few seconds of sound at the
end of the track. Otherwise the track is the same as the
album version.
