SUMMARY: RUNNING TIME: 4:18 Min.
It’s the fifth track off U2’s seminal 1987 album, The Joshua Tree.
REVIEW:
The intriguing title alone suggests that listeners should give it a chance. Yet, that’s really how much this track deserves. As a moody, low-key ballad, “Running to Stand Still” is essentially a generic sampling of U2’s sound. In that sense, the song is filler for The Joshua Tree album.
BRIAN’S ODD MOON RATING: 5½ Stars
