With or Without You" is a song by Irish rock band U2. It is the third track on their fifth studio album, The Joshua Tree (1987), and was released as the album's lead single on 16 March 1987. The song was the group's most successful single at the time, becoming their first number-one hit in both the United States and Canada by topping the Billboard Hot 100 for three weeks and the RPM national singles chart for one week, with a further three weeks at number two.

"With or Without You" features sustained guitar parts played by guitarist the Edge with a prototype of the Infinite Guitar, along with vocals by lead singer Bono and a bassline by bassist Adam Clayton. The song originated from a demo recorded in late 1985 that the group continued to work on throughout The Joshua Tree sessions. Ostensibly a song about troubled love, the track's lyrics were inspired by Bono's conflicting feelings about the lives he led as a musician and domestic man.

Hi arejay222 I added a guitar. I couldn't get it to sound like the original because of the lack of guitar effects. Still, I hope you like it. Great job everyone!

Hi arejay222. I did a bass track using my new acoustic bass I just got today and using it for the very first time. I thought this bass would fit great on this acoustic version of this song. This is also the first time I'm recording on bandhug in a very long time since supporting my wife battling cancer. My recording sounds like I'm playing in a large tin barrel. I should really spend more time playing around with my sound settings but this is the best I can do for now. I hope you like it.
