"Bullet the Blue Sky" is the fourth track from U2's 1987 album, The Joshua . Although never released as a single, "Bullet the Blue Sky" has been played at nearly every one of the band's live concerts since its first performance at the opening night of the Joshua Tree Tour on April 2, 1987. The song is one of the band's most overtly politically toned songs, with live performances often being heavily critical of war and guns.
Amazing when you think about the fact that they released this ablum as a CD and it jumped way up in sales.
