Really? Jeesh. Easily one of their most embarrassing songs.

Im not talking about the quality of the song, but people were so happy they played it.

Hell, i remember even Bono talking about the song like: ¨yeah they did such a cool single¨

I thought it was a funny and obviously ridiculous response to something a small child would say, and I ran it by Thejambi before posting to make sure it was cool. Thanks for reading my post

Yep. The Fixer was huge circa 09/10.

I remember I was at a club a month or two after it dropped. The DJ put it on and the place went absolutely wild. Hundreds of people bouncing and grinding to the song. I approached one girl who was loving the song and asked if she preferred the Brendan O'Brien remixes of some of the songs from Ten on the 2004 Rearviewmirror set or his more recent mixes on the Ten 20th anniversary set. She looked at me with confusion and disgust and told me to leave her alone. Fucking pleb.

I don't remember The Fixer being that big of a deal.
Just Breathe of course had moderate success though. I got several compliments from friends on that along with "I thought they broke up?"

Ain't no one gettin' wet to The Fixer!
We still make records to be listened to — not that everyone will listen to a record track one to twelve in a row or side A or Side B — but we still make 'em in case somebody does want to listen to it like that, that's how we make em…

I believe Just Breathe is their biggest selling song in the States. Bigger than Last Kiss or Jeremy.

It probably could have been an even bigger hit if they gave it a proper video and did more promo for it.

I get it. You’ve chosen not to enjoy the song. It’s cool.
