Tucked into Zooropa, U2's 1993 album, "Some Days Are Better Than Others" was produced by the Edge with Brian Eno and Flood, with Eno adding synthesizer, Flood and Robbie Adams engineering and Adams handling the mix. The music is credited to all four members, the words to Bono, and the title says plenty: a weary, wry shrug at the way life lurches between good days and bad ones.
