Their success as a live act was greater than their success at selling records until their 1987 album The Joshua Tree increased the bands stature from heroes to superstars; according to Rolling Stone.U2 responded to the dance and alternative rock revolutions. "Stuck in a Moment You Can't Get Out Of" is the second single from U2's 2000 album, All That You Can't Leave Behind.
