Background Information
This double-CD compilation album features a number of “acoustic” tracks produced by Universal Music TV and Sony Music TV. By acoustic they mean songs that feature an acoustic guitar. These CDs would be sold through television promotion, as well as in shops.
The U2 track featured on this compilation is their cover of Lou Reed’s “Satellite of Love” that was recorded in the early 1990s, and released as a B-Side on the single for “One”. There is a bit of additional silence on the track, but otherwise the song is identical to that found on the CD single.
