Lyrics:
Dinosaur, wonders why it still walks the earth, yeah
A meteor, promises it's not gonna hurt, yeah
Earth quakes always happen when you're in bed Fred
The house shakes maybe it was something I said Ned
…go easy on me, easy on me brother
…go easy on me, easy on me brother
When the lights go out
And you throw yourself about in the darkness where you learn to see
When the lights go out
Don't you ever doubt
The light that we can really be
Statues fall
Democracy is flat on its back Jack
We had it all
And what we had is not coming back, Zac
A big mouth
Says the people they don't want to be free for free
The Blackout
Is this an extinction event we see?
Go easy on me, easy on me brother
Go easy on me, easy on me now
When the lights go out
And you throw yourself about in the darkness where you learn to see
When the lights go out
Don't you ever doubt
The light that we can really be
When the lights go out
Ah, ah, oh, oh
When the lights go out
Ah, ah, oh, oh
When the lights go out
When the lights go out
Blackout
It's clear
Who you are will appear
Blackout
No fear
So glad that we are all still here,
Here!
When the lights go out
When the lights go out
When the lights go out
When the lights go out
And you throw yourself about in the darkness where you learn to see
When the lights go out
Don't you ever doubt
The light that we can really be
When the lights go out
Ah, ah, oh, oh
When the lights go out
Ah, ah, oh, oh
When the lights go out
When the lights go out
When the lights go out

I so adore Bono's voice when he sings the line "When the lights go out!" Sounds so crystal clear! They're still rocking- U2 the legends!
His voice still *has* it, as well as the rest of the band! This a fantastic song!
U2 are a whole different breed when it comes to live music. They do it the best.
When I listen to Blackout, so do my neighbors.
The bass line on this song is killer!
Totally agree! Outstanding!
Ohh yesss
It makes me wet
Perfect for this song!
Yes!
This live version is so much better than the album version. I wish U2 would stop over producing their music. Adam's bass in this is raw and dirty - they should have kept it that way! I want to hear an album from them that's stripped back and almost live. That's what 'Songs of Experience' should have been. U2 are best live and still the best live band I have ever seen.
Search for achtung baby outtakes
Think it's one of their best! Powerful, and a bit eerie. Considering the lyrics cut makes sense. Glad I caught it live Edges wailing guitar puts it over; but they mesh it wonderfully together.
And that's like 45 years on. That's superb, lasting talent.
Spot on
🎯🎯🎯
I kind of forgot just how awesome this song is. Nice reminder.
I *LOVE* the way Bono sings Brother at 1:18. Just screams U2 to me. I don't know why. It's just classic.
Mate, me too !!! But also this part 2:22 for me. He expresses peace.
Love this version so much more than the album version. So good!
U2 is my oldest love in music. Bono's voice, Edge's great sound and guitar playing and the solid and original spine of the band with Larry and Adam who are always forgotten... Juts one of the best bands still active that never changed a band member and that was never afraid to take chances. I would love your input on our last video. If you have just 3 minutes to listen and a bit more to comment, that would mean the world to me. Keep rockin' : th-cam.com/video/ufF4gUA_6rQ/w-d-xo.html
I forgot there was *this* version. The album is excellent but this is *Smokin'*! Love the vid, too!
U2 are by far is my favorite band in the world. Every song is gr8.
Songs of Experience is a Great Album. Greetings from Mexico
Edge can do magic with his guitar !!!!
And Adam with the bass and Larry with the drums. Fuck,this song is perfect
U2 = quality
adam's bass is mind blowing ❤️😍😍
YASSSSS!
We just saw them live and the bass for this song was unbelievable...you could feel it deep in your chest. Amazing show!
it is funny cuz the edge wrote it for him but he definitely made it better
U2 have been one of the greatest live acts for the better part of 40 years. This sounds just as incredible. SONGS OF EXPERIENCE!
One of their *best* and so late in their career (& some others on E+I)!
Yes guys...this is the way. This is U2´s sound
World to U2: Keep giving us songs that highlight Adam's bass as this song does, thank you. (Along with all other shining features that are so well known!)
Raw energy!! Can definitely feel the punk roots in this tune, can’t wait for the album
Love this version - especially Adam's bass! Completely disarming.
This is way better than the album version.
Bella Bella...
Been a massive fan of theirs since a little kid cause my dad always played albums like The Joshua Tree, War, Achtung Baby, All That You Can't Leave Behind etc. This new song reminds me of their older stuff and it's AMAZING!
as old as they are, they still make better proper rock songs like this than most rock bands these days.
Age is knowledge and that is was art need today
Lots of great rock bands today
@@fabiansilen6850 ppppppppppopppooooooooopoopoooooooooo
And those days. They changed me and my perception of music forever. I love them
EPIC. 40+ years together and still on top of the (music) world producing masterpieces such as this! WHEN THE LIGHTS GO OUT!
It was fantastic to see that live! Plus other E+I songs.
3 years ago no one listened, now we are facing: The Blackout.
Yes. And they seem to be part of the predictive programming. Take a look at their you’re the best thing about me video. Sign.
Yes true. 🌊
@@reylove33 bruh why does everything have to be a conspiracy😐
U2 have always been ahead of their time so it comes as no surprise...
U2 will echo through eternity! The Edge kills it!
I agree! They are etching their place in History!
That's because he's Welsh :)
That's because he's The Edge...
You couldn't have said it better....... Our guys don't give up . its about love peace and understanding more than we know . blessings.💙🙏
There - that wailing, siren sound for this song! Perfecto!
The intro to this song is incredible! It should've been the album opener I think.
Fack. I never considered but now that I do, I would had been great. I love the songs, but I didnt like the album order.
You miss the point of the story in the album so
Well, im not sure about it being an album opener but a gig opener - for sure! I hope it will be their opening song on the upcoming tour.
They'd get too many people thinking their Achtung sound is back.
I didn't realize SoE was a concept album. Am I missing something?
One of their best songs.
This is the pure Rock N'Roll. Thanks U2.
Omg, I freaking love this song!
Been here since the J Tree was just roots...what's grown from those roots to these long branches is truly spectacular... forming the ultimate U2 family tree of music.
These guys know what’s coming! All their latest songs are all about it.
Honestly i havent looked more forward to an album in a long time, the 4 songs theyve played have been great. cant wait to see you guys in dublin next year
“What we had is not coming back.”
Great song to kick off the eXPERIENCE. Adam is on fire here
Love love love this song just wish the rest of the album, as good as it was, was like this
I didn't click "thumbs up" immediately as the video began. I resisted the urge and thought I should let +U2 earn my approval. Who was I kidding, really‽ It's +U2, after all. Even before Bono began singing, Adam, Edge, and Larry had already won me over. My enjoyment grew from there. Great job, +U2! Thanks, +U2VEVO!
So true. I felt the same.
Cool story bro.
Something between 70s Punk, 80s Rock in a style of amazing U2... it is a song of experiense!!!
Epic vibe. U2 is a trip. One hell of a ride. I will continue to follow.
Oh MY GOD!!!.... when the light go out...🙏🏻
This is one of my favorite songs from this new album. I think it should get more radio airplay than it presently does.
They don't play anything good on the radio
You may see an Irish band. I see LEGENDS
I see both
@Natmanprime No all four are super talented. Bono is Irish and his lyrics over a 40 year career stand comparison with almost anyone else's.
They can be Irish and legends..the two are not mutually exclusive...
They have been my legends since 1983. Glad we agree. Life needs more of it, yeah? My life would have different without them. God speed U2 and you.
Since young age of listening to music, I have NEVER EVER heard about U2 as an Irish band but always a LEGENDARY.
43 years of unforgettable rock music and still going strong....
48 years now
Yet another amazing song. Well done, U2.
U2 Masterpiece!
Concert worthy!
I'm just 13 years old and from Spain and i've been listening to U2 since I was 4, they are my favourite band and I love them!!!
I have all their albums and I was at Croke Park (Dublin) in 2017 to see them on their Joshua Tree Tour!!!
thats very cool. I have love them since the beginning and took my daughter to their I&E show at the forum in 2015. I own every album on vinyl an CD
Si eres de españa,entonces hablas español??
Luis Muñoz wow you’re cool
You’re a wise kid. What’s your favorite U2 album? Impossible right? Ok, how about top 5 in order? If you’re old enough to have grown up with them as I have it’s really impossible to put their records in a “my top 5” order because each album was special because of what I was going through at the time. So I’m curious as to how a younger fan that has to go back and listen to them feels their top 5 u2 albums are in order.
Blue Zulu I believe that each album has its ups and downs I personally do not like pop at all. Every other album is amazing in my mind. I am also relatively young also but I grew up listening to them. Truly the greatest band out there and it’s a shame that modern day music is messed up.
When the house shakes it’s not an earthquake, it’s me turning the music up to listen to U2💃 great song even if the lights go out. :)
It happened to me just now lol volume up loud something shook 😅💙
this mix of the live version with the studio version is awesome!
This is a great tune. There’s a bunch of later-era U2 gems out there.
I LOVE FINDING THEM
Some people don't think do - but I do!
Heard this in Belfast last year. We were near the mini stage. Brilliant show. Best band in the world and have been since Live Aid_ period.
Boum boum boum the bass yeeessss !!!
Loved this song! Best band in the world, always!
Another U2 classic!
The new album is just pure legendary! Love U2.
Archmetal06 b
Just saw them play this one live at the Los Angeles Forum May 16 2018. Phenomenal Show! Love the new songs! The Blackout...Red Flag Day...Cedarwood Road...Love is all we have left...Lights of Home...Get Out of Your Own Way...all great!! And they play of these on the current tour and many hits from years past!!
That bass!!
I can only imagine how amazing this song will be live during new tour. They definitely need to extend the 3:38 build up and make arena completely blacked for a bit
They not
It was fantastic live!
This is the classic and rock and roll U2 group that I knew in the 80s
The best song from SOE. Not sure why but the other tracks lack some ass-kickin unlike this one..........dark, brooding, no-nonsense rock!
It’s brilliant to see a band from a country as small as mine to become basically the most popular band in the world.
Now that's the U2 I love-passion creates power. Can't have light without power
John 3,16
Adam Bass line OMG!!!
YeS! and in Man and Woman
Spitze. ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ Happy new years 🍀
90's U2. I love how in this album, and Songs of Innocence, they applied what they learned in the 80s, 90s and 00s.
an incredible band ! an unforggetable sound !
These guys have seen fame. Legendary. It remember Jesus is king. You must be born again.
Still the biggest band in the universe. U2 will never be topped.
Depeche Mode...
@@theclash3015 justin bieber is better
Pipe down Tony
Anthony Serrano huge u2 fan but definitely not the biggest, but imo the best
@@theclash3015 people says Pink Floyd...
Still rocking bravelyyy....after all these epic memorial of their years....deeply through time..that's OUR U2 !
Great song!! Probably their best in over a decade! 👍👍
It's an *incredible* song!
U2 is bigger than anybody they were on the same page with in the 80's. Ex.: Billy Idol, Duran Duran, Culture Club, The Fixx, Elvis Costello, etc. Good song. Cheers!
After so long I am still impressed and overwhelmed at them. Great tune, à la Achtung Baby. U2’s really unique. When the 💡 go out, ahahahahahah!!!!
Best song of the album so far! We will be jumping!
Finally they are completly back with their sound!!! I have had years without listen to them like they have to be listened.
Their darkest classic. Total Noir all over!
100% U2. Fantástico regresso. Simply the best!!
When the lights go out, Jesus and the believers He shines through are still the light of the world. No need to learn to see in the dark - just turn on the light!
This is the U2 I miss. I wish they made a real rock album of songs like this instead of trying to write hit singles for Spotify
RU KIDDING ME, THIS BAND IS GOING BACK IN TIMES
U2 BLACK AND WHITE VIDEO, GREAT!! SOUNDS LIKE THE OLD GOOD TIMES!
Watching this during coronavirus lock down... Scary how fast freedom gets abandoned because of fear of disease.
Could not believe I got to go see them last month 🥰 first concert at 15 and it was to see my favourite band ❤️
Should have more views this is a terrific song. U2's creativity at work once again
A great video. The song starts with an Adam Clayton infectious groove. U2 always a high performance band, both in the studio, and especially live. C'est la vie!
Will probably be their best Album in long time. I luv this song. and get out of your own way. Legends!!
AMAZING SONG. AMAZING BAND. I LOVE U2
Jessica I couldn't agree more !
I know, right?
Le vrai retour de U2...les meilleurs de loin....
I love this song. I can't stop listening to it.
For the first time since 1997 I sing a U2 song for a week straight.
Finally they're going back to the roots with this song, sounds like a song that could be included in achtung baby :p
It's very achtung isn't it! 👌💕
like zoo station when it starts
I think it would fit better on Pop. I wouldn't describe their 90s work as 'their roots,' that is punk(ish). But, their 90s work is definitely their most interesting and innovative (I miss that band).
act like The Fly
Achtung baby is hardly roots. I think that’s a masterpiece that stemmed from their musical evolution.
I’m late to the party discovering this very awesome song!! Better late than never?
Thank you U2 for that awesome powerful song! Please never stop making music :)
This has a Discotheque vibe to it.
What a stompr ! What a rocker... I liove this track. SOI was amazing. Hope this big brother can follow in its footsteps
beste Rockband ever. Super Rocksound. Bin sehr gespannt auf das neue Album.
🇩🇪
bloody hell. the mojo has been rediscovered. long time u2 fan but not a fan boy that praises everything....but love this.
Adam...!! Wth..!! Breaking out *hard* with that funky bass bro....Awesome music
I ❤️ U2
Its my favorite band
Same here! :D
U2 - The Blackout- Eletrizante!!!
good to hear them with that killer rythym section.
Ohh yeah baby... rock n'roll... Great sound...!!! U2Forever
This song is so good! I hope their next album rocks this hard. :)
Ich habe U2 schon immer als Rockband geliebt !!! Die haben es immer noch drauf eine super show abzuliefern. Das letzte Album " Songs of Innocence "finde ich besonders genial.
