It is 1:27 AM April 4th where I am now. I play this in honor of the angel among men that was Mr. Martin Luther King Jr. He gave his life for equality and even today his words resound as strong as they did 50 years ago, with likely billions of admirers worldwide. Thanks for giving all who yearn for justice and liberation such glorious words of inspiration. Rest in eternal bliss Mr. King.
oh wow me too. My favorite band and my heritage. I'm from a small town, Galveston Island, TX where the emancipation proclamation was declared. Also, I was living in Memphis at the time the song was released. To this day, I still het choked up as a few tears run down my face.
.."They took your life, they could not take your pride!.." One of the best masterpieces that was ever written and composed by a rock band...💗 Long live Bono and U2!
the bit "early morning, April 4. shot rings out in a Memphis sky. free at last, they took your life. they could not take your pride" brings me to fucking tears everytime
The Unforgettable Fire is U2's best album, in my opinion. It has an atmosphere, a spark, feeling and dreamy, experimental, ethereal mood to it that none of U2's other albums have.
I feel like Zooropa has a pretty similar ethereal vibe, but whereas The Unforgettable Fire is pure rock, Zooropa is even more experimental with its sound. Regardless, they're both great albums in my opinion.
"they took your life. they could not take your pride" -> "they can take your life. They can not take your pride"" - ALWAYS FIGHT FOR FREEDOM and your RIGHTS!
A lot of U2 songs are actually gospel inspired- take still haven’t found what I’m looking for - about our lord and Savior is you read the lyrics This song is about our lord Jesus Luther Martin Jonah and Moses if you listen again to the lyrics - I absolutely love U2 and think they the best band by far of many 🙌💯😍❤✝️
Dr. Martin Luther King taught me so much to listen to his sermons is mind blowing. For a band that tap into their musical ability to celebrate such a revered, truly unique and inspiring individual is truly art.
It was February 10th 1989, when my family got MTV. When it came on the first video was this one & 10 year old me was hooked. Now I´ve seen them live 4 times & they´ve never left my top 3 favorites. Those 3 albums: War, The Unforgettable Fire & The Joshua Tree became a huge part of my musical upbringing & The Edge has probably inspired me more as a guitarist than any other.
this song has so much energy its unbelievable, from the message, to the singing, guitar, drum and bass, still an actual song after years pass. Excelent!
I grew up in 60s. The brilliance and emotion behind every line of this song!! Love but so much violence, towards those who speak love,!! Heavy, emotional song for those of us that were there!! Love the tears
The same exact thing happened to me as a kid. It hit me like a ton of bricks...very powerful stuff. It's an anthem, a rallying cry...still just as powerful for me as the day I discovered its meaning.
They were all one man. The goal was the same. To save us from ourselves. True work of art, This one man, is deeper than many of those who know all the words.
MLK 50 YRS AGO TODAY, His life ended but his message still strong!!! THANK YOU U2! I love this song because it is beautiful Great song and love the guitar in the beginning! What mouth breathers disliked this song ? This is a powerful song . Love it
I was 4 years old on April 4 1968 when while standing right in front of his room door on the outside balcony of a Memphis Tennessee Motel the greatest ambassador of peace, love, honor, respect and dignity who was awarded the distinguished title of Noble Laureate, earning the Noble Peace Prize for his ceaseless unwavering commitment to ensure future generations of all races creeds colors and gender unconditionally live together peacefully with the lack of oppression for all of Earths inhabitants without biases nor prejudice of a person's religion or lack of religion Christian, Muslim, Jewish, Buddhist, Zoestrian or Pagan made no difference to Dr. Martin Luther King who's life was taken early morning of that day. For no other reason than racist hatred and bigotry by a man who himself never contributed anything positive or valued for the enrichment of society in his entire life. I only take a little bit of comfort in what the song suggests that they took his life but they could not take his pride. I do take much more comfort and knowing that while Dr. Martin Luther King was living he made the world a better place to live getting better each and everyday he drew breath on this planet for the sake of all humanity and that he is undoubtedly in the loving arms of our creator in heaven where he is undoubtedly making it a better place while his presence is there. Peace Always, cv.
One night I was sitting eating something at the table in the kitchen and I seen part of this song and I really enjoyed it I used to hear this song on the way to my stepsister Kathy's when she drove me out there when she lived in San Diego and it always brought peace to my mind I really like this song and it's a really good one from you guys u2
Being African American growing up, I knew little of what African Americans went through ever since they were brought here to North America in chains in 1619 and subjected to slavery and all forms or cruelty for centuries in school I was taught very little of the struggles African Americans went through just not only to be accepted as Americans but as human beings. But we overcome racism, and racist injustice through our accomplishments, in war and peace, but our history was virtually ignored and forgotten and enough is enough. I stand with Americans of Native, Asian, Hispanic, Muslim, of all nationalities that made a contribution to this country and were subjected to racism as well. Every time I hear this song from U2, a song they dedicated to the Late Martin Luther King Jr, who made a difference in his non-violent policy of protesting and working for human rights for all Americans, not just African Americans. He and all in the Civil rights movement were brave enough to stand and defy Jim Crowe/Segregation and racism and make a difference. I listen to this song and sing it proudly. I believe there is hope. "Love can overcome hate. God bless you, U2, for dedicating this song to King. May freedom ring.🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🦅🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
It was This song as a kid that made me feel different bout music. I dont think thers ever been a song more than this one where u want to play it again and again straight after.
This is why to this day I love U2! No doubt Martin Luther King Jr and Coretta Scott King are up in heaven prasing them for writing and dedicating this song to him May we keep King's dream of racial justice and equality alive for the haters in this country who still hate others because of race will never win and destroy what King stood for. God bless King, U2, and God bless the U.S.A. Amen.🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
@Mary Teresa I'm not sure that you understand what "Communist" actually means? Or whoremonger for that matter. It might give your argument more weight if you researched your insults more thoroughly. Also, what your sentiment has to do with a great song, I'm not sure
Martin Luther was, ultimately, a religious man, and believed in the ‘nuclear family’. It’s unlikely he’d ever cheat, nor abuse women. You likely obtained that information from a white supremacist who was attempting to entice you into sympathizing with them. As far as the other comments: it seems rash, and most certainly immature of you to respond to this confused individual by bashing current politicians who have nothing to do with the subject.
Hard to believe this was put out all the way back in ‘84! Lyric, instrumental and production wise it sounds so incredibly clear, pristine, deep and impactful compared to a lot of other stuff out at the time, U2 truly were, and are, in a league all their own.
MLK 50 YRS AGO TODAY, His life ended but his message still strong!!! THANK YOU U2! What mouth breathers disliked this song ? This is a powerful song . Love it
This song beautifully reflects the man about whom it was written: Martin Luther King, Jr. I also heard it played a lot in the immediate aftermath of Nelson Mandela's death. I came up w/ my own special verse, if U2 ever did a new version just for him: "Sunny morning, like those before. Trouble comes out of clear blue sky. Brave leader, they locked you up. But they could not take your pride."
This song is about any martyr or hero who sacrifices himself in the name of love, including Jesus, MLK Jr, Mandela, etc... . Sacrificing oneself for the greater good of the group is the definition of a hero. Certainly the line about April 4th is about Martin Luther King Jr.
48 years today we lost Martin Luther King, Jr. RIP Dr. King your dream is still out there. What mouth breathers disliked this song ? This is a powerful song . Love it U2 - only sucess...
🇮🇹 CASPITA ....QUESTA CANZONE È PROPRIO ROCK'N'ROLL .... DETTA LEGGE.... E LA BAND GLI U2 POI ....NON CI SONO PAROLE E VAI CON LO SPETTACOLO.... TANTI SALUTI DALLA PROVINCIA DI BRINDISI.... ITALIA 🇮🇹
Although the song does make a specific reference to MLK, it's not just about him. It's about anyone like him. Anyone who choses personal struggle to make the world a better place.
today almost all the black people in africa and america think to be white is a crime they are so racist even there was a cocentration camp of many families of white,chinese and indian who were killed by zulu group,,,what a great dream was
Alma Tuomaala i'm a white American. when I was in 3rd grade, I saw a film in Wich slave capturers dispose of people who they didn't think would be worth very much. They tied them to a big rock. Made the edge of the boat slippery. Then, pushed the rock into the sea. Nothing ever made me want to kill people, more than that. If I had a time machine & an assault weapon, I would. I don't know what the moral of this story is. But, if it makes anyone think, then good!
All these years I have liked this group, until one day my white friend at work, told me this is a classic, until I found the lyrics, I never knew how powerful this group is. Big Respect to U2. One of the most beautiful songs I ever had the privilege of hearing in my lifetime !!!!! nuff said, peace U2
I’m not black, but I always loved this song. Once I read here and confirmed only that this song is in reference of MLK, I liked more. What a man MLK, what group U2 and masterclass song! The world needs love more than ever!
I love this song because it is beautiful 48 years today we lost Martin Luther King, Jr. RIP Dr. King your dream is still out there. God, this song fills me with such an indescribable peace.

"One man betrayed with a kiss" line gives me chills.
Me too
He’s talking about Jesus being betrayed by Judas inscariot
For me it was "free at last, they took your, they could not take your pride"
One of the greatest songs to have ever been written and sung by any human being..I salute U2
It is 1:27 AM April 4th where I am now.

oh, MLK gave his life? I didn't know that.

"Free At Last ... They Took Your Life ...
They COULD NOT Take Your PRIDE." 💪❤💪❤💪

.."They took your life, they could not take your pride!.."

Long live Bono and U2!
The voice
the bit "early morning, April 4. shot rings out in a Memphis sky. free at last, they took your life. they could not take your pride" brings me to fucking tears everytime
even though it wasn't early morning, Dr. King was shot at 6:05pm on April 4th :/

..lyp
Amen
Today is the day to play this song and remember Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Thank you U2 for memorializing this great man, through song, forever.
Dr. Martin Luther King taught me so much to listen to his sermons is mind blowing. For a band that tap into their musical ability to celebrate such a revered, truly unique and inspiring individual is truly art.
Every time the line "They took your life but they couldn't take your pride." plays I want to give this video 100 upvotes.
Musicians, poets ...amazing and powerful lyrics not just in this song but so many others ....
It was February 10th 1989, when my family got MTV. When it came on the first video was this one & 10 year old me was hooked. Now I´ve seen them live 4 times & they´ve never left my top 3 favorites. Those 3 albums: War, The Unforgettable Fire & The Joshua Tree became a huge part of my musical upbringing & The Edge has probably inspired me more as a guitarist than any other.
An almost unrivalled run of brilliant albums from a very special band.
im black and i think u2 did a fantastic job in making a song that embodied the spirit of dr king! i love u2 and martin luther king! rip dr king
Well said , if only we had Dr King with us today , 🙏
U2 is a band with soul.
I'm Black As Well....
This Always Was A Epic Song...
Bono & All Created A Powerful Peace Anthem...... For All Society...
the 1st verse is about Ghandi the 2nd about D Day and the 3rd is about King.
He's definitely resting in peace Mlk is a man of God
RIP MLK.
Thank you Bono for this great song honoring Dr King and his ultimate sacrifice!
I listen to this one every April 4th in memory of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr! The world still needs him.
Never knew how great this song is, so powerful 🙌🏽 a nice Christian song
Possibly the Best song out there ever. Just ridiculous how a human can come up with this Greatness
IN THE NAAAAME OF LOOOVE!! WHAT MORE IN THE NAME LOVE!!
This song and New Years Day are sooo very powerful that i still get goosebumps listening to them today !
this song has so much energy its unbelievable, from the message, to the singing, guitar, drum and bass, still an actual song after years pass. Excelent!
I grew up in 60s. The brilliance and emotion behind every line of this song!! Love but so much violence, towards those who speak love,!! Heavy, emotional song for those of us that were there!! Love the tears
Besides the Soweto Gospel Choir's cover of this song, no one else should touch it. I can't get enough of it!
the first time i heard this song i nearly cried..... i'm now 12 and figured out the actual meaning of the song. I burst into tears listening to it.
Your 21 now how do you feel about it 9 yrs later?
Ethan son I will see you in eternity 💘😂 xx God blesses you have a lovely weekend xx God 🙏🙏🙏 bless you Sonshine
@@joey9140 was gonna ask him the same question but a whole year later.
Music and magic share a common root word for a reason.
The same exact thing happened to me as a kid. It hit me like a ton of bricks...very powerful stuff. It's an anthem, a rallying cry...still just as powerful for me as the day I discovered its meaning.
now youre like 22
This is one of the greatest songs of all time, period. Bono did an amazing job singing this song. :D
not a huge U2 fan tbh but this has got to be one of the best songs of all time by anyone ever
In the name of Real Love that's what has kept my Mother and I alive these super huge amounts of years 1958-1993 on up to 2022 now!!!!!!+
this song reminds us of the stories of the Holy Bible and the sacrifice of Martin Luther King Jr.
has the fact, that he have had a lot of women, even when he was married, also something to do with Bible?
@@Bakoska having many women is in the bible... read about king david
They were all one man. The goal was the same. To save us from ourselves. True work of art, This one man, is deeper than many of those who know all the words.
Unforgettable, this song, is part of my life, absolutely the most important, of their immense discography! 🙏🙏🌈❤️♥️🌈
MLK 50 YRS AGO TODAY, His life ended but his message still strong!!! THANK YOU U2!

Bravo, Bono & Co.!
this is one of the greatest song ever. hands down
Early morning, April four
Shot rings out in the Memphis sky
Free at last, they took your life
They could not take your pride.
MLK was shot around 7pm eastern time but the Irish are not known to be sticklers about time!☘
Instead of took your life, it sounds more like answered your life o-O

GENIAL l'ouverture de cd best 1980-1990 une pure merveille
JESUS.. One man in the name of Love 😍
Every second of this was good. Almost 4 minutes and I loved all of it. Not a good beat with crappy lyrics, not a good chorus with bad in-betweens.
ВО ИМЯ ЛЮБВИ! Самая лучшая песня этой группы ! Обожаю !!

@Jonathan Glass no it's about mlk, the music video is all shots of him.

Although the song does make a specific reference to MLK, it's not just about him. It's about anyone like him. Anyone who choses personal struggle to make the world a better place.
today almost all the black people in africa and america think to be white is a crime they are so racist

Long Live MLK! Or, at leat, his memory.
All these years I have liked this group, until one day my white friend at work, told me this is a classic, until I found the lyrics, I never knew how powerful this group is. Big Respect to U2. One of the most beautiful songs I ever had the privilege of hearing in my lifetime !!!!! nuff said, peace U2
I still remember when I was 21 , I travel and this sound never lack in my stereo system, unforgettable memories
Fifty years ago today ... a shot rings out in the Memphis sky.
the lyrics make U2 great humanitarians themselves by remember these special people through time.
God, this song fills me with such an indescribable peace.

Thumbs up if youre listening today 4th of April.
Listening today, April 4, 2021. How strange and poignant that the Easter falls on that date this year...
One man....betrayed with a kiss
very striking lyrics
I was about to make the same comment as mentioned below: one of the greatest songs of all time.....!
" One man washed up on a empty beach."
* Drowning Man.* U2.
I shall die by drowning after suffering to the same extent as the Lord.
St Michael.
I always think of Jesus ,one man betrayed with a kiss , it makes me cry and happy what more in the name of love 😊
I love this song because it is beautiful
This song makes me want to take my own life
Yeah, that's pretty much why you listen to this song.
WRONG! I LOVE BONOR BECAUSE HE LIVES SO large. #
@Ian Turner many iconic men, including Dr. King. Jesus, the men who stormed Normandy beach, etc.
@@spider-keithasmr38 ⁰0⁰00
all time great classic songs
Whenever I lose faith in people, humanity in all and even in myself, U2 always helps
that song keeps king. dream alive. yeah U2
The best 80s songs of all times
libby hamer well of the 80's maybe
I love this song because it's written for our Jesus Christ savior to learn us what love means and wash our sins away
It’s also about the tragic death of Martin Luther king jr
@@justanotherotakuanimeweeb6189 yeah, but MLK was not Jesus. Not even close. MLK loved black people. Jesus loved everyone. Big difference.
@@tylerdurden9923 Yeah, but MLK is also referenced. Jesus wasn’t shot on April 4 in Memphis
1984, best year of British pop. Ever.
I’m not black, but I always loved this song. Once I read here and confirmed only that this song is in reference of MLK, I liked more. What a man MLK, what group U2 and masterclass song! The world needs love more than ever!
Its early morning on April 4th I had to listen to this
"WHAT more in the name of love?" Those are the correct lyrics.
It means , what is there more than love to defend.
@@petersvox9762 It means, "What more has to be done in the name of love for love to prevail?"
Miss those U2 concerts from the days of past ....
M.L.King a true man that cames in the name of love‼
Love this song. Excuse me while find my Joshua Tree vinyl. Would love see them live in Dublin.Would be the ultimate!!!
