Even Better Than the Real Thing" is the second song on U2's 1991 album Achtung Baby. It was released as the album's fourth single on 8 June 1992. Even Better Than the Real Thing" originated from a chorus guitar riff that the Edge composed in Los Angeles during the Rattle and Hum sessions. A demo of the song, called "The Real Thing," was recorded at STS Studios during the same session in which "Desire" was recorded.

Multiple videos for Even Better than the Real Thing were filmed and released. The most widely-known version was directed by Kevin Godley in January, 1992 in London.

Even Better Than the Real Thing is the title of a number of Irish charity albums recorded on The Ray D'Arcy Show on Today FM and released over a number of years for the Irish Christmas market. The albums featured Irish artists performing covers of U2 songs until 2005 when the series was temporarily discontinued, although in 2008 Even Better Than the Disco Thing was released featuring covers of disco songs instead. The title is taken from the U2 song "Even Better Than the Real Thing".

Ahh) Give me one last chance And I'm gonna make you sing Give me half a chance To ride on the waves that you bring You're honey child to a swarm of bees Gonna blow right through you like a breeze Give me one last dance We slide down the surface of things. You're the real thing (Yeah) The real thing You're the real thing Even better than the real thing, child. We're free to fly the crimson sky The sun won't melt our wings tonight (Oh now, ooh, yeah) (Here she comes) Take me higher Take me higher You take me higher You take me higher
