[11] For the re-recordings, the band members decided that they did not need to remain faithful to the original versions of the songs; the Edge said, "We gave ourselves permission to disregard any sense of reverence for the originals." [9] The Edge began with a rough outline for each song by choosing the key and tempo, before he composed musical ideas on acoustic guitar and piano, [14] and improvised vocals that he would later play for Bono. Since the two share a similar vocal range, [11] the Edge believed that they would be able to determine the viability of a vocal idea once Bono attempted it. [14] The Edge conscientiously shifted songs into lower keys to better tailor them to Bono's vocal range, saying his goal was to "serve the song by serving the singer".
