Indeed. The term he was looking for and couldn't find was "anti-climatic", and I agree... it lets you kind of waiting for the big guitar ballad-ish solo which never happens, and I think that's actually a very good summary-metaphor for the whole song (and most human relationships I guess).
Spoiler (click to toggle) Or maybe I'm reading too much into it and it was just Edge being lazy and not wanting to record a guitar solo that day.
Originally posted by ahn1991:Edge has never really been a guitar solo guy for me. I think he excels in his ability to set up an atmosphere within a song. That's why his trademarked "echo guitar" effect is quintessential Edge guitar work. I know people have talked about U2 scrapping the echo guitar stuff, but it's a huge part of their musical identity. It wouldn't feel like U2 without it.
