When I was young and foolish, I used to believe it was the height of cool sophistication to start New Year’s Day by putting the U2 song of the same name on at high volume. A totemic beginning to the New Year, I thought.
I know better now, and wouldn’t assume to sully the intelligence or patience of my dear Readership by forcing Bono on them while they’re still in a delicate place.
Instead, please to enjoy Leatherface rocking out to Hüsker Dü’s “New Day Rising.”
Aah. BRACING.
