Miami The 8th Track On The 1997 Album Pop Is By Common Consent A Song You Either Love Or Hate Its One Of The Most Experimental 'out There' Songs U2 Has Ever Made. It Has A Trip Rock Style And Begins With A Drum Loop With Mullen's Hi-Hats Playing Backwards Through A Very Extreme Equalization Filter. Howie B One Of The Albums Producers Explains "The Main Groove Is Actually Just Larry's Hi-Hat But It Sounds Like A Mad Engine Running Or Something Really Crazy -- About As Far Away From A Hi-Hat As You Can Imagine... The Task In 'Miami' Was To Make It Unlike Anything Else On The Album And Also Unlike Anything Else You'd Ever Have Heard Before." Edge Also Comes In With A Frenetic Guitar Riff And Bono's Affected Vocal Style Singing About Miami In Metaphors And Descriptions Of Loud Brash Americana.
