His dad had just died two days earlier. He shouts, "Hey pa, it's your boy!" during the transition. I literally just lost my father a few hours ago, and felt the need to revisit this video.
Facts 👏 Nothing but Facts. This is what you call 🤙 Nostalgia. I wish I was there because watching it over and over and over and over and over again gives me Goosebumps every single time. U2 showed up and showed out. The Most Amazing display of Love ever❤❤❤ U2 are Truly Amazing and Beautiful ❤️❤️
At the beginning of "Streets"; hearing Bono call to his recently passed father and saying "It's Paul" ...... "See you soon, father" ......"Amen"..... and Edge's face at 5:19 then gazing to the sky at 5:23
Imagine being the Edge playing the opening chords of Streets, watching one of your closest mates cry for his father. Imagine what he'd be feeling in that moment, as it's perfectly reflected on his face. He knew they were making history. This is THE U2 Performance, THE ultimate performance of Streets.
I didn’t know that he was crying for his father. This is my first time hearing this, it is exquisite. Giving me chills,,,The Edge,,,tearing UP the guitar"... Thank you, Martin! (So embarrassed 😔)
I remember standing half way up the hill in Slane when the little red light started to flicker for the intro on WTSHNN and then that little red light got bigger and bigger then the whole place exploded and the place went nuts.What a feeling what a moment to be alive .
Bono's Dad died 2 days before this gig. Everyone thought it would be called off so there was some surprise when it went ahead. It was a seriously emotional night and that comes through on the DVD. Probably the greatest gig ever.
+Andeez Anderson - This is THE concert performance to watch. You are right, the emotion comes through stronger and more real than any other. Bono is a showman, a performer, but this night, through his performance his raw self comes out, and the audience is right there with him - howling, crying, celebrating, tearing at the fabric life and stitching it back together and healing - there was SO much cathartic expression and healing in this night. It is the greatest gig. It breaks my heart and make me sing with joy at the same time.
+Andeez Anderson I agree with you, although i believe the DVD was shot at the second show which was like a week later. You can still hear the emotion though.
I was at this concert! Slane, Ireland. It was the most incredible experience I have ever had. The crowd was with every word, and the venue, on castle grounds, with all that would happen after this concert, Bono's father passed away, 9/11 in the USA, and so many things, it was just amazing to see such raw spirits from the band, and to be there for the all day concert. Amazing and I will NEVER forget how it changed my world.

i was there too, with my then girlfriend who had swapped Billy Connolly tickets to get tickets to go to this show. I am Australian, and first saw u2 in 1984in Melbourne. I, of course, married her and tomorrow we're off to Vegas to see U2 at the Sphere.
Lots of different opinions, that is what i heard clearly. Said his own name twice, said "see you soon Father" twice, then Amen. I'm good with what I heard, and makes the performance mean more to me.
Well, it's all subject to opinion. I have a few U2 CD's and I love them, I wouldn't say they're the best band ever, but damn did they record some classic songs, All I Want Is You is probably one of my favourites alongside songs like I Will Follow, Gloria and The Electric Co.
Much more impressive to see no cell phones recording. Everyone getting right into the music. Such a shame these days more people are interested in getting a recording of the song (and a shitty one at that) to show off to their friends on Facebook.
Undoubtedly the greatest U2 performance ever. Given his dad's passing at the time and the fact that they were performing at home, it was a cocktail of emotions that is clearly heard in Bono's voice throughout the evening, but especially at that magical transition for Streets. You can just hear all the pain as he holds the note. An amazing moment in an endless list of amazing moments from the best Irish band of all time.
What I still can't comprehend is that Bono ran, almost sprinted, around the heart; stopped on a dime and hit the first note with amazing clarity. It still gives me chills to watch this, all these years later.
Yeah, you are absolutely right, Sir...I think I have the DVD of this concert. It is very old, from around 2000-2001. That guy that commented no one was filming with their cellphones is funny...:) Can't he tell the difference in the video??? The video is not in HD, there were no HD technology yet during those years, or he can even google this if he really wants to find out how old it is...Sometimes, people need to use their common sense....:)
BRUCE ALCORIZA he meant the audience were fully present... he was commenting on the beauty of that... that the audience wasn't one step removed from the experience because of their phones, by their incessant need to record... that instead you can see and feel the audience get lost in the magic of that night.
I believe in life there’s always that one moment where everything aligns and it’s magic. This was one of those moments. The fact it’s in their home country, in front of their home fans, his father passing away just days before and the emotion. One of the best moments in live music history
Totally agree - there was a chemistry in this performance - was beautiful when he was telling the story of borrowing £500 from his father, can tell how much it meant to him. U2 still one of the best bands Live.... what a show....
A truly magical performance, Literally a couple days after Bonos father died, U2 put on this masterclass of a show. Not a phone in sight just people connected through the joy of music and making unforgettable memories. Hard to believe just over a week later the world was torn apart with 9/11 and has never really been the same since. What I'd give to go back to those days, if only there was a way to know your in the good old days before they've gone 😭
When I feel like I am falling down, disappointed to people and losing faith in everything. The songs like these emotionally charge me back to where I belong, what I should do. Thank you for spreading love
I got to see them when I was your age for Unforgettable Fire and then Joshua Tree and in the decades that have passed, I always feel remarkably lucky to have had their music follow with me through about my whole life. I am going to the desert to see the Joshua Tree [sadly fallen] in about a month and I'm seeing them this summer too. I'm seriously stoked that you're getting to see them in Dublin this summer and I imagine they'll pour their all into that show and I hope it leaves you in head-shaking disbelief for how amazing it is. Anyway, yeah, cheers.
This is maybe the best ten minutes of live music I’ve ever seen. Where The Streets, when the lights come on, when you see 100,000+ people going apeshit, that’s almost a religious experience. Just to see so many people so high on the buzz of live music (and I’m very much not religious) Incredible. Absolutely incredible
@@bobbievasco6915 for saying he lost his dad a few days before that gig, I think it all came out in that transition from All I Want to Where The Streets. Just amazing Edit to add: most people who’d just lost their only surviving parent would’ve cancelled that gig
I'm not a great fan of U2 but this is far and away the most heartbreaking/soulhealing performance I've ever heard, in ANY genre of live performance. Stunning and achingly beautiful.
Só não percebi! Uma atitude dum espectador que não deve ser fã... quando numa parte, alguém joga lhe água com força? Ele viroses e disse lhe alguma coisa, que não percebi...?😡 Gosto muito desta banda U2🎶🤩👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹
@@wesjohnson4637Because of all the albums they've made, I only like Joshua Tree. I like occasional other songs but Joshua Tree is really enough for me. I love Edge's cinematic guitarwork and the rhythm section of Larry Mullen Jr and Adam Clayton but really tire of Bono's politics.
I have seen this video 500+ times, and it gets me every single time, Hairs on the back of my neck. Totally amazing. So glad to have seen U2 live now 5 times. But this show, this night, this performance is probably the best liver performance ever. It's on par with Queen at LiveAid. Thank you #Amazing
Mark Laverish I will forever regret not seeing them. I bought my ex and I tickets but we obviously broke up months later. I was too nice and told her to go ahead and enjoy them as they were a gift, blah blah. In hindsight - fuck that. I'm the guy who has all their albums, watches their videos like this weekly, etc. Oh well. My point is - be happy you saw them, and not only saw them, but 5 times man! I'm jealous!
Everytime I see this, it makes me cryin. Between the 2 songs, you hear Bono scream, cry and pray: It's paul, it's paul.. see you soon father. Amen. And the Where te streets... talkin bout heaven😢
Now half the crowd would be looking at their iphones trying to get good footage instead of just experiencing the moment. This is amazing. What a moment.
I keep coming back to this video every few months - for the past five years at least it seems, though I'm not sure when it was filmed. At around 4:53, when the crowd realizes what the next song is....pure joy.
My mom was a raggae fanatic she visited me and I played her this show. She stood up and danced to this song - where the streets have no name in 2005. She passed in 2006. I will never forget that beautiful moment ❤. I miss her every day
We played this song as my uncle (one of the biggest U2 fans there ever was) was in the ICU shortly before he passed. Part of me likes to think that this song was the last song he heard. Will always hold a special place in my heart. Thank you U2!
I had a similar story except my sister Colleen committed suicide at age 40. We used to attend U2 concerts together as she introduced U2 to me about 47 years ago. I sang a U2 song to my sister by her gurnee at the burn unit in SF ICU. I played, "All I Want Is You" and I sang It softly by her ear not exposed. She was wrapped from head to toe with bandages like a mummy with swollen slitted eyes and only one big toe sticking out. She held on hard so my husband and I could fly back to say goodbye to her as we learned this news on our vacation. After the song came to an ending my mom screamed "I love you!" and then she flatlined. Your story resignated / resignates something powerful within me. Sorry for your loss. Music can bring out a hidden memory not faced, especially the band U2. Bono and band will always carry on for generations to come. When I hear one of U2's songs at the grocery store, dentist office, playing in a car etc. I know my deseased sister is by my side. Blessings to you.
@@carenclarke6896 que hermosa historia haz contado, mientras recuerdes a tu hermana jamás morirá, vive en tu pensamiento y en tu corazón, tienes razón, la música es algo indescriptible y que nos unirá por siempre a todos y cada uno de nosotros, te mando un abrazo a la distancia desde México Man.
One or two folks sit down to write a song. Four record it. And, somehow, it transforms into a special “moment” for 100,000 people in a stadium…and who knows how many who watch it on this video. That is one of the powers of art.
Very few singers in the world and can connect the way Bono does with to the audience, is amazing how he is able to share his emotions to the whole crowd and youtube viewrs though his singing, AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!
Remember Bono's father died probably a week or two before this show, so it's like all his emotion is being poured into the music. It must have been therapeutic in such a time of grief
The Grieve transition when starting where the streets have no name will never be the same again. What a soul Bono, Looks like he’s calling his dad from Haven for a last concert. Even Edge is aware of the conection and played his best guitar solo ever.
Have never seen raw emotion like this. Two days after the death of his father and he laments at the end of "all I want is you" which is most likely to his Father' and not Ali , have never seen a better portrayal of emotion than this wonderful bit of music, have to say it is the best Bono performince I have ever heard and most likely the best performance I ever will hear.
Great Artists always have the ability to create something beautiful from their pain. Their art acts an outlet for them. This cry after All I want is you was just that.
No words could ever express how every cell in my body gets elevated after hearing that CRY! Tears roll down the cheeks every time and I feel clean again!
You will never know what you missed if you didn't see this band in the 90's and early 00's. Probably the best you could ever see across any number of lifetimes.
Was in the crowd that day..what a performance. Twas a real privilege & honour to be there, everyone there knew it was special..there was real electricity in the air. It doesn’t tire 17yrs on, the same goosebumps rise. A credit to themselves, music & Ireland.
Everything about this is perfection, iconic, and spectacular. A moment in musical history that will be remembered for centuries. You simply don't get this anymore in music.
So... Streets was my father's and my favourite song (also favourite version) but we didn't know the context. He used to ask me to play it on gigs since i was like 13yo but never did it. He passed away last december and i didn't have the chance to say goodbye. Today i played this in a gig at college with a candle and a photo of us behind me and finally had the chance to say goodbye.
U2, & Led Zeppelin, the two bands that have forever stayed at top of my "favorite" list. Thats 40 years for Zeppelin, and 35 for U2. I'm clearly getting old.
Please, let me tell you my story of being at this gig... My best friend and I got fake tickets (young and dumb). There are 4 ticket checkpoints going into Slane Castle gigs, we made it past 3 and we were buzzing. 4th checkpoint, we were rumbled. Side gates unbolted and unceremoniously kicked out. Embarrassed and gutted we started walking back to the buses hoping we could get one home to Dublin. Then... we got a call from our friend who said.... F:"Where are you?" Me: "We got kicked out" F:"Come to the backstage gate I have two backstage passes for yous!" No fu*king joke. From the bottom to the top with one sentence. We drank, were fed and smoked it up backstage in this little camper van as we watched all the famous people coming and going to the stage, it was awesome. Also, it was a beautiful day (ahem), the sun was shining and before the gig they showed an Ireland -V- Holland football match on the big screens. We won!! Jason McAteer goal. 1- 0 to get Ireland into the World Cup Finals Playoffs. The 80,000 crowd went insane when the Irish scored. An amazing moment. And then THAT gig. This video does it great justice, it really was special. Of course, everyone knew Bono's dad had just passed and there was just something in the air.. like as if it was an Irish wake, There was defo an appreciation for Bono not cancelling the show. People would have understood if he did. And they just played out of their skins. I remember that pint being thrown at Bono.. (and his funny reaction) we were in that section of the crowd. I remember the long note he held at the end of 'All I want is you' which seemed to come from very deep down. And I remember the Streets kicking in. I was 21. I was happy. I was with the best friends. And it was a truly magical moment. And I'll never forget it. Thanks, U2
At the beginning of "Streets"; hearing Bono call to his recently passed father and saying "It's Paul" ...... "See you soon, father" ......"Amen"..... and Edge's face at 5:19 then gazing to the sky at 5:23
The energy is unreal from min 4:28 and on is amazing , real music unlike what we have nowadays!! U2 and just pure music 🎵 🎶 awesome 👏🏼 for generations to come
One of the greatest song, live performance ever in the history of mankind. I've never seen magic like this before. Look at ocean of people. prefect live singing perfect music. 10/10 stars, this is what its called perfection, thanks to TH-cam we are witnessing one of the historical concert of greatest band in history The U2.
There is nothing in this world like the opening chords to "Where the Streets Have No Name". Bono feels it every time, I feel it every single time, there was a time when the entire world felt it... Every single time!
I cannot even begin to imagine how it felt being there at the moments when the transition between this two songs happened! This is by far the best live performance out there 💖✨✨
Been to many U2 concerts specially here in Dublin since 1993 but this was by far the best and I even got to go there after party for the 25th Joshua Tree in 2017 but this was some night.. Had to put my claim to fame in there😂👍☘
Bonos dad passing away days before, Ireland qualifying for the World Cup hours before, Ireland in jovial spirits after the pain of the previous decades, the crowd involvement, THAT song transition. How can one not cry watching this?
Does anyone else look at the 16m views and wonder how many of those are just you?! Such an out-of-this-world segue. And the best 'reverse-heckle' ever!
I haven't listen to U2 in such a long time. my oldest sister introduce them to me when I was about twelve yrs old, now I am 45. This video was powerful. The energy in that place must have been strong. All I can day is....WOW!!!!!! 😊🎶
A good friend was at this show in Ireland. He said this moment was absolutely transcendent. The pinnacle of their career and one of the great moments in rock history.
Thanks dad for introducing me for such a great band as is U2. I’m pretty sure that without their music i wouldn’t be the same person as I am today. Thank you
I've seen U2 live four times and every time the intro to Streets starts you can feel the entire stadium rise. When they hit the first few bars before the verse and throw the lights on the crowd it's close to a religious experience - and that's coming from an atheist :) This is a great version.
I can't count how many times I've watched this video but the intro to The Streets have no name gives me the chills every time. I loved it when it first came out and I still love it. Brings tears to my eyes because I can hear the base and here comes Bono. Amazing and Awesome. U2 Forever ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Now I am 49 years old. My first u2 album was Joshua tree. Since 1987 I am a totally u2 fan. In the later 90s the music style was not mine. But the last albums go back to their roots. But where the streets have no name is Unsurpassed. In this live act the 2 minutes between this great songs is unbelievable. Thanks u2 for your unbelievable and unforgettable music. Greetings from Austrian

Probably the best transition between two songs to have ever been heard here on earth
Couldn't agree more
Brillant
Totally agree. There is no better transition possible…
His dad had just died two days earlier. He shouts, "Hey pa, it's your boy!" during the transition.
I literally just lost my father a few hours ago, and felt the need to revisit this video.
@@TheAgwon79 so sorry to hear that sad news bro. My condolences. take care of yourself.
No Phones, No people glued to their screens. Just people connected from music to soul to energy. What a time it must have been
Facts 👏 Nothing but Facts. This is what you call 🤙 Nostalgia. I wish I was there because watching it over and over and over and over and over again gives me Goosebumps every single time. U2 showed up and showed out. The Most Amazing display of Love ever❤❤❤
U2 are Truly Amazing and Beautiful ❤️❤️
Die schönste Zeit meines Lebens. Ja du hast Recht !😊
have known it, even in France, since 1975 (Bowie, Genesis, Yes and many others)

Saw U2 in Dallas, Tx in 2001. I was inside the heart shaped stage right next to Hanson (all three brothers). Pretty cool.

Imagine what he'd be feeling in that moment, as it's perfectly reflected on his face. He knew they were making history. This is THE U2 Performance, THE ultimate performance of Streets.

There is a point in time that the LIVE version is so incredible that you completely forget the studio version - this is one of those moments!

@@bobbievasco6915 for saying he lost his dad a few days before that gig, I think it all came out in that transition from All I Want to Where The Streets.
Just amazing
Edit to add: most people who’d just lost their only surviving parent would’ve cancelled that gig
Alguém no começo do concerto lança lhe água. E ele disse lhe algo, que não percebi...
yes fellow brother. this is like baptism, initiation, just a pure beautiful moment.
An Irish Wolf crying into the night. An absolutely masterful performance.
I'm not a great fan of U2 but this is far and away the most heartbreaking/soulhealing performance I've ever heard, in ANY genre of live performance. Stunning and achingly beautiful.
YES IT IS ❤️
You are a fan
Só não percebi! Uma atitude dum espectador que não deve ser fã... quando numa parte, alguém joga lhe água com força? Ele viroses e disse lhe alguma coisa, que não percebi...?😡 Gosto muito desta banda U2🎶🤩👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹
Then, why on earth would you not be a great fan?
@@wesjohnson4637Because of all the albums they've made, I only like Joshua Tree. I like occasional other songs but Joshua Tree is really enough for me. I love Edge's cinematic guitarwork and the rhythm section of Larry Mullen Jr and Adam Clayton but really tire of Bono's politics.
The BEST transition EVER performed by a BAND U2 Greatest Band in the WORLD
What a drummer Larry Mullin Jr is....
I have seen this video 500+ times, and it gets me every single time, Hairs on the back of my neck. Totally amazing. So glad to have seen U2 live now 5 times. But this show, this night, this performance is probably the best liver performance ever. It's on par with Queen at LiveAid.
Thank you
#Amazing
Mark Laverish I will forever regret not seeing them. I bought my ex and I tickets but we obviously broke up months later. I was too nice and told her to go ahead and enjoy them as they were a gift, blah blah. In hindsight - fuck that. I'm the guy who has all their albums, watches their videos like this weekly, etc.
Oh well. My point is - be happy you saw them, and not only saw them, but 5 times man! I'm jealous!
Only saw them once and dont even remember the gig because i wasnt interested in them back then. Would give anyhting to see them again...
+Mark Laverish U2 was awesome too on Live Aid 1985 ... ;)
+Mark Laverish Every time !!!!! . What a transition between the songs!! . Man its fucking life in a nutshell.!
I'm agree with you man!!!!!
The best ten minutes on TH-cam!
My dad passed away this evening.....I came here to listen.
Beahanshl Reannatzh ❤️
Everytime I see this, it makes me cryin. Between the 2 songs, you hear Bono scream, cry and pray: It's paul, it's paul.. see you soon father. Amen. And the Where te streets... talkin bout heaven😢
Now half the crowd would be looking at their iphones trying to get good footage instead of just experiencing the moment. This is amazing. What a moment.
I keep coming back to this video every few months - for the past five years at least it seems, though I'm not sure when it was filmed. At around 4:53, when the crowd realizes what the next song is....pure joy.
+Dean White It's from the DVD Live from Slane Castle. It was recorded in 2001.
Yeah bro. Me too. Where streets have no name goes well after any song.
Specially 'Bad'.
+GuitarPlayer1244 its my fave concert ever and its 3 months and 6 days older than me
Not a U2 fan whatsoever, however,this not only gives me chills, but this makes me want them for a one night stand...
Sam Newton brilliant
Bono is a gift to the world he's just incredible
My mom was a raggae fanatic she visited me and I played her this show. She stood up and danced to this song - where the streets have no name in 2005. She passed in 2006. I will never forget that beautiful moment ❤. I miss her every day
I’ve been fortunate to see U2 live 4 times. This is the best live version I’ve ever heard. Actually brings tears to my eyes listening to this music
the power of live music eh Barca?
I took my friends from the UK to this Concert in 2001
they were crying with joy because the whole places was jumping and dancing
I was there in that day, I live in Dublin. I saw u2 for my first time at 13 years old. This was the peak, just such a beautiful concert
perfect transition between the 2 songs!
Ditto
that transition is quite emotional... Absolutely agree :)
Bono's dad died the night before which adds to it
Ynml
Annop Catsman lnb
Can you imagine being the center of that much loud, positive, emotional energy? I wonder if it ever gets old...
The transition between these two songs in as good as it’s possible for rock music to be
It doesn’t get better
We played this song as my uncle (one of the biggest U2 fans there ever was) was in the ICU shortly before he passed. Part of me likes to think that this song was the last song he heard. Will always hold a special place in my heart. Thank you U2!
I had a similar story except my sister Colleen committed suicide at age 40. We used to attend U2 concerts together as she introduced U2 to me about 47 years ago. I sang a U2 song to my sister by her gurnee at the burn unit in SF ICU. I played, "All I Want Is You" and I sang It softly by her ear not exposed. She was wrapped from head to toe with bandages like a mummy with swollen slitted eyes and only one big toe sticking out. She held on hard so my husband and I could fly back to say goodbye to her as we learned this news on our vacation. After the song came to an ending my mom screamed "I love you!" and then she flatlined.
Your story resignated / resignates something powerful within me. Sorry for your loss. Music can bring out a hidden memory not faced, especially the band U2.
Bono and band will always carry on for generations to come. When I hear one of U2's songs at the grocery store, dentist office, playing in a car etc. I know my deseased sister is by my side. Blessings to you.
@@carenclarke6896 que hermosa historia haz contado, mientras recuerdes a tu hermana jamás morirá, vive en tu pensamiento y en tu corazón, tienes razón, la música es algo indescriptible y que nos unirá por siempre a todos y cada uno de nosotros, te mando un abrazo a la distancia desde México Man.
One or two folks sit down to write a song. Four record it. And, somehow, it transforms into a special “moment” for 100,000 people in a stadium…and who knows how many who watch it on this video. That is one of the powers of art.
Very few singers in the world and can connect the way Bono does with to the audience, is amazing how he is able to share his emotions to the whole crowd and youtube viewrs though his singing, AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!
U2 have produced some of the best lyrical rock songs.
You guys have been rocking it out since I was 16. Me and so many other people are so glad you got together and are Still together thank you
Magnifique la transition entre les deux chansons
Pour ma part where the streets est la meilleure du groupe 👍🇫🇷
I'm freezing. That transition gives my good bumps. its the fucking greatest
Spencer Gadoury a
Spencer Gadoury Same... ❤️
It's like we're hearing his true soul singing out. Awesomely amazing, totally badass!
Remember Bono's father died probably a week or two before this show, so it's like all his emotion is being poured into the music. It must have been therapeutic in such a time of grief
Matthew LaTorre it wasn't a week or two, it was a day or two, which makes his performance all the more remarkable
One of the best turn over to the next song i ve ever seen and heard.
The Grieve transition when starting where the streets have no name will never be the same again. What a soul Bono, Looks like he’s calling his dad from Haven for a last concert. Even Edge is aware of the conection and played his best guitar solo ever.
Pure artist. No half naked dancers in the background. No lipsync. Here u get what u paid for. God bless pure artist and musicianship
This performance makes me so emotional. U2 forever and ever.
By far, my favorite band!
Abençoados com o talento e nobre coração.
Abençoados...
Amo❤
Sometimes you can feel your heart open during the build to the lyrics. Pure and simple majesty
Have never seen raw emotion like this. Two days after the death of his father and he laments at the end of "all I want is you" which is most likely to his Father' and not Ali , have never seen a better portrayal of emotion than this wonderful bit of music, have to say it is the best Bono performince I have ever heard and most likely the best performance I ever will hear.
o
hi
Great Artists always have the ability to create something beautiful from their pain. Their art acts an outlet for them. This cry after All I want is you was just that.
@@aidanmckendry6915 hello there bai
No words could ever express how every cell in my body gets elevated after hearing that CRY! Tears roll down the cheeks every time and I feel clean again!
Some bands try to blow your minds, some bands try to rock your world, U2 haunts your memories.
The best ten minutes on TH-cam!
You will never know what you missed if you didn't see this band in the 90's and early 00's. Probably the best you could ever see across any number of lifetimes.
AMEN man.
At 51 yrs old. I have never ever seen such an epic band.
Among the most EPIC song transitions in rock history...
Was in the crowd that day..what a performance. Twas a real privilege & honour to be there, everyone there knew it was special..there was real electricity in the air. It doesn’t tire 17yrs on, the same goosebumps rise.
A credit to themselves, music & Ireland.
Everything about this is perfection, iconic, and spectacular. A moment in musical history that will be remembered for centuries. You simply don't get this anymore in music.
So... Streets was my father's and my favourite song (also favourite version) but we didn't know the context. He used to ask me to play it on gigs since i was like 13yo but never did it. He passed away last december and i didn't have the chance to say goodbye. Today i played this in a gig at college with a candle and a photo of us behind me and finally had the chance to say goodbye.
💐
Tut mir leid fuer deinen Vater, schoen, dass du es schliesslich geschafft hast, sich mit ihm zu verabschieden! Viel Glueck
Lean into it Brothrt x
U2, & Led Zeppelin, the two bands that have forever stayed at top of my "favorite" list. Thats 40 years for Zeppelin, and 35 for U2. I'm clearly getting old.
U2 >>>>>>>>>>>>
U2 FOREVER.
This is cathartic. You can't play it loud enough on good enough of a sound system. It tears at your soul.
The past 10 years or such this has been my favorite songs when they do they back to back..
Please, let me tell you my story of being at this gig... My best friend and I got fake tickets (young and dumb). There are 4 ticket checkpoints going into Slane Castle gigs, we made it past 3 and we were buzzing. 4th checkpoint, we were rumbled. Side gates unbolted and unceremoniously kicked out. Embarrassed and gutted we started walking back to the buses hoping we could get one home to Dublin. Then... we got a call from our friend who said....
F:"Where are you?"
Me: "We got kicked out"
F:"Come to the backstage gate I have two backstage passes for yous!"
No fu*king joke. From the bottom to the top with one sentence. We drank, were fed and smoked it up backstage in this little camper van as we watched all the famous people coming and going to the stage, it was awesome. Also, it was a beautiful day (ahem), the sun was shining and before the gig they showed an Ireland -V- Holland football match on the big screens. We won!! Jason McAteer goal. 1- 0 to get Ireland into the World Cup Finals Playoffs. The 80,000 crowd went insane when the Irish scored. An amazing moment. And then THAT gig. This video does it great justice, it really was special. Of course, everyone knew Bono's dad had just passed and there was just something in the air.. like as if it was an Irish wake, There was defo an appreciation for Bono not cancelling the show. People would have understood if he did. And they just played out of their skins. I remember that pint being thrown at Bono.. (and his funny reaction) we were in that section of the crowd. I remember the long note he held at the end of 'All I want is you' which seemed to come from very deep down. And I remember the Streets kicking in. I was 21. I was happy. I was with the best friends. And it was a truly magical moment. And I'll never forget it. Thanks, U2
At the beginning of "Streets"; hearing Bono call to his recently passed father and saying "It's Paul" ...... "See you soon, father" ......"Amen"..... and Edge's face at 5:19 then gazing to the sky at 5:23
Pure presence, pure compassion
The Edge fells Bono's pain.
Empathy. Written all over his face. He then new this has to be the best performance we can do. And they achieved that. Awesome.
For my money, the best live performance of the best song ever written.
Never will there be another like U2.
Well said
Rollingstones ook niet
Man that's true.
I don't want them to stop singing.
The energy is unreal from min 4:28 and on is amazing , real music unlike what we have nowadays!! U2 and just pure music 🎵 🎶 awesome 👏🏼 for generations to come
His voice sounded great thus night. One of my favourite performances from them
One of the greatest song, live performance ever in the history of mankind. I've never seen magic like this before. Look at ocean of people. prefect live singing perfect music. 10/10 stars, this is what its called perfection, thanks to TH-cam we are witnessing one of the historical concert of greatest band in history The U2.
But where...
Tutte queste persone unite da un unico grande immenso lungo grido ...meraviglioso
After all these years, I still want that highway with no one on it.
Do you know what this song is about?
There is nothing in this world like the opening chords to "Where the Streets Have No Name". Bono feels it every time, I feel it every single time, there was a time when the entire world felt it... Every single time!
Geez ... The world needs this more now than ever before. Love to all you music lovers - you know the unity this brings! ❤
Bono has such a Beautiful Voice.. the rest of the guys were born to Do what they are doing and they do it extremely well ☮️💕
I cannot even begin to imagine how it felt being there at the moments when the transition between this two songs happened!
This is by far the best live performance out there 💖✨✨
Been to many U2 concerts specially here in Dublin since 1993 but this was by far the best and I even got to go there after party for the 25th Joshua Tree in 2017 but this was some night.. Had to put my claim to fame in there😂👍☘
This is my only musical dream. To be there when magic like this happens
That this was caught on film and preserved for future generations is nothing short of miraculous. This performance will outlive us all.
Bonos dad passing away days before, Ireland qualifying for the World Cup hours before, Ireland in jovial spirits after the pain of the previous decades, the crowd involvement, THAT song transition.
How can one not cry watching this?
Does anyone else look at the 16m views and wonder how many of those are just you?! Such an out-of-this-world segue. And the best 'reverse-heckle' ever!
I haven't listen to U2 in such a long time. my oldest sister introduce them to me when I was about twelve yrs old, now I am 45. This video was powerful. The energy in that place must have been strong. All I can day is....WOW!!!!!! 😊🎶
A good friend was at this show in Ireland. He said this moment was absolutely transcendent. The pinnacle of their career and one of the great moments in rock history.
I watch this every single day. Without fail
Thanks dad for introducing me for such a great band as is U2. I’m pretty sure that without their music i wouldn’t be the same person as I am today. Thank you
Still have the goosebumps when i listen to "where the strs. have no name" even in 2016... They are that good!
This is so true. I prefer the original video. Good music and still very relevant.
몇번이고 몇번이고 봅니다.
정말 너무 좋은 노래들이네요.
좋은영상 볼수있어서 감사합니다!!!!!
U2!!!!!!!
I've said it before and I'll say it again, one of the greatest (if not the greatest) musicians ever. Edge.
Streets is the only song ever to make my cry at a concert...spiritual
Amazing, really a stunning performance.
I would like to dedicate this song to my beautiful wife of 25 years....Barb ❤ All I want is you! ❤
U2 such bands will never repeat ...😭
I've seen U2 live four times and every time the intro to Streets starts you can feel the entire stadium rise. When they hit the first few bars before the verse and throw the lights on the crowd it's close to a religious experience - and that's coming from an atheist :) This is a great version.
His voice is so powerfull there its amazing
I think this qualifies as one of the greatest conserts in history!
I think i've watched this about a thousand times.. wish i could give million likes to this video
Best live performance ever
I can't count how many times I've watched this video but the intro to The Streets have no name gives me the chills every time. I loved it when it first came out and I still love it. Brings tears to my eyes because I can hear the base and here comes Bono. Amazing and Awesome. U2 Forever ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Simply takes you to a free and beautiful place. I cannot stop listening to this song!! There is only one Bono and one U2 - forever band.
Wish they would've done the super bowl 50th anniversary coming up. For sure they would make that night spectacular!!! U2 fan forever!!!
I hope they do it.
Well, Coldplay, a band heavily influenced by U2, is doing halftime, so it should still be a good show.
It's that the hype is not that much for such a huge event
+Tito Marrero they already did 2002 Superbowl.. 911 Tribute
was there in long beach when it was filmed what exquisite chaos!!
Now I am 49 years old. My first u2 album was Joshua tree. Since 1987 I am a totally u2 fan. In the later 90s the music style was not mine. But the last albums go back to their roots. But where the streets have no name is Unsurpassed. In this live act the 2 minutes between this great songs is unbelievable. Thanks u2 for your unbelievable and unforgettable music. Greetings from Austrian
That sound of The Edge guitar...EPIC
One trick pony though. Although a very good one
The transition and the fact that the audience can accent it well makes this my favorite U2 live performance in general.
I was there in person...one of the best days of my life so far
Damn Skulls $$$$$$$$$$$$$
I could listen to this song (and version) on repeat for the rest of my life.
