U2 released "Luminous Times (Hold on to Love)" in 1987, and the credits are the story here: Brian Eno doesn't just co-produce it with Daniel Lanois and the band, he also shares the composing credit with all four members, which makes him something closer to a fifth writer than a man behind the glass. The words, though, belong to Bono alone.

Bono sings lead, the Edge plays guitar, Adam Clayton holds down the bass and Larry Mullen Jr. handles drums and percussion. Flood recorded it and Dave Meegan mixed it.
