Lyrics:
Sometimes I feel like I don't know
Sometimes I feel like checking out.
I wanna get it wrong
Can't always be strong
And love, it won't be long.
Oh, sugar, don't you cry.
Oh, child, wipe the tears from your eyes.
You know I need you to be strong
And the day it is dark, as the night is long.
Feel like trash, you make me feel clean.
I'm in the black, can't see or be seen.
Baby, baby, baby, light my way.
Alright now, baby, baby, baby, light my way.
You bury your treasure where it can't be found
But your love is a secret that's been passed around.
There is a silence that comes to a house
Where no-one can sleep.
I guess it's the price of love; I know it's not cheap.
Oh, come on, baby, baby, baby, light my way.
Oh, come on, baby, baby, baby, light my way
Baby, baby, baby, light my way.
I remember when we could sleep on stones.
Now we lie together in whispers and moans.
When I was all messed up and I heard opera in my head
Your love was a light bulb hanging over my bed.
Baby, baby, baby, light my way.
Oh, come on, baby, baby, baby, light my way. - เพลง

This version kick ass.
I named my daughter Alayna Violet after this song. it is still my #1 favorite song of U2's ever....so many memories with it. Last week, at almost 5 years old, I had her listen to the song on AB, she had quite a smile on her face....i think it was pride....she's already a U2 fan. Hearing her sing "Ultraviolet liiiiiight!" is priceless!!!
It's such a happy good vibe song no wonder she had a smile on her face lol. It's refreshing to hear you're getting her into some real music before she starts listening to niki Minaj and the likes :(
Cool awesome song
+Patrick Freeland Beautiful name for your little girl!! :))
+Maggie Reilley thank you!
💟😘
I lost my mother around the time Achtung Baby was released and the line in this song “There is a silence that comes to the house where no one can sleep” could not have been more true, as our home was no longer filled with the sound of her voice and laughter...only memories. This song helped me through one of the toughest times of my life and I can’t thank you enough. A true classic,
Stay strong. Regards from Brazil. ❤️🙏
I'm pretty sure that Bono refers to his mother when he sings "When I was all messed up, and I had opera in my head (reference to his father) / Your love was a lightbulb hanging over my bed"
Bless your family.
I fee exactly the same when I lost my daddy. I can’t thank enough
Toughest times ..? What do you mean for ?
Bono's vocal here is ridiculously good!
If you mean ridiculously...I agree!
He is a shadow of his former self
we all get old... @@hosoiarchives4858
@@hosoiarchives4858 I mean, he's got older. That's how life works unfortunately.
He sings this better here than he ever did in the 90s.
I just appreciate what we can still get
When covid-19 is done I’m going to see U2, no matter where they perform.
Buy two tickets please because I'm going to 😂
Daniel V deal! 🤣
Make it 3
Make it 4😂😂😂😂
Me too that’s five please! 😂
This song never gets old
Absolutely timeless.
And never will
Achtung Baby best album ever! ❤️ U2 forever
You can't be more right!!! 👏 👏 👏
certainly their best
U2 Achtung Baby and David Gray's White Ladder albums were both the only two albums of perfection that I can think of.
100% ❤❤
Their last GREAT album
The clarity and tone of his voice for a live performance is quite extraordinary.
Ultraviolet is probably one of the most underated U2 songs ever !!
Achtung Baby is and will always be the best U2 album ever. Nothing else compares to the depth and breadth of this album.
yesssss!!!!
Mark Dorchester Sooooooo True! :)
The Joshua Tree is better than Achtung Baby
I have to go old school...best Album...U2 War
I thought Zooropa was their worst. I must agree, Achtung Baby is the best in my opinion, as well.
It's unbelievable how The Edge has the most powerful riffs but the most gentle and clear voice. I think we can consider him the Sound Maker of U2, as long as Bono is the Soul Maker. Without Larry and Adam, however, they would never have been playing for so many years. Fantastic Band.
I swear the Edge's guitar tone on this song is out of this world
Baby Baby Baby... ♥️🇧🇷
Comme dans beaucoup de morceaux quand the edge est a l"'oeuvre 'c"est magnifique !!
definitely one of the bands most underrated songs
Turns me into a dancing queen!
Jaja salu2
@Michelle Aguirre jujujuju
I think they not play this one so often right? Maybe thats why...
Agreed
- from a begging korean province even whose dwellers are the fake ones who pretend true Corean ancestors’ pride as they don’t have its own but mixed into them only to parasite them.
When Bono shouts out "Ultraviolet" it gives off a shock wave of sound and emotion. Awesome version...
Toute la jeunesse et l'insouciance de nos 20 ans, j'ai la chance de connaitre et de savourer leurs musiques !! AB est l'album le plus abouti !!
@@mcmlxx7168 Yes indeed, and their music will continue to live on for generations to come!
I will never ever ever get tired of watching this 🇮🇪
same hahah
never get tired of this live version...
It's pretty good for a My Bloody Valentine rip-off; shame Edge had to ruin the bridge solo, though! Try Washington...
@@cl8804 how does this in any way sound like My Bloody Valentine
@@coreygrange915 listen to "blown a kiss" and find out
You re right
@@cl8804given Acthung Baby and Loveless came out only 2 weeks apart, I don’t think one was ripping off the other
One of my most favorite songs..........it's just so epic. The feeling the band captured on this track is just masterful.
Essa música é uma das minhas preferidas!!
EPIC it is !
I love u2....because sori...lula bono not 😢
La metto tra le prime 3 canzoni degli U2, la amo ogni volta che la ascolto. Vi ho amatovi amo e vi amero per sempre w gli U2.
One of the best songs written ❤
They are the most unique rock band with the best lyrical content. Plus the edges approach to guitar in a rock band was completely different making them even more unique. Best band there ever was is and will be.
100% TRUTH!!!!!!
Melhor banda do mundo!!
The Edge's guitar riffs make this song as powerful and unique as it is. Memories.
Yes! Just genius!
As well as Adam's bass and of course Larry's drums.
Man Boi It’s synergy. All elements are important.
@@manboi6852 adam larry & edge always make perfect with bono
@@wateryleaf now we are talking.
Sheer synergy
Cheers
,🙋💚
Joshua tree & Achtung baby are one of the best albums in rock history
yes
@Eduardo Smit YES, very overlooked album. It's solid all the way through.
Don't you mean two???
sulzer73 totally agree.., and what’s amazing is that both albums are polar opposites of each other and are GREAT! how many bands have made a great record then completely reinvented themselves and put out another great record!?! Only U2
@Eduardo Smit Bono actually thinks the album is weak but not the individual songs.
One of the best live bands ever, no discussion
I ended an 8 year relationship with this song. We parted ways with this playing.
This song and performance are perfection ❤
Absolutely right ❤
Epic !!
Late night, empty freeway, volume to the max= one of the greatest U2 songs ever!
Almost 30 years my favourite song.. Who else too? The lyricus are so right, so recognizable..I just love these four lads!
Lifts my soul hige every time for 30 years. As the end of the world.
My favourite song of all time
WoW Best concert EVER Rose Bowl CALIFORNA
Still can't believe I was there. One of the best nights of my life
Damn q.q you are so lucky hahaha !
dude I envy you so god damn much right now
Fritobandito858 yes! it was amazing!
that i believe :) im jealous
also there, ditto
3:00 The Edge. God Bless you sir! God bless you!
The best,this song helped me through the worst days of my life .I lost my wife as this song came out helped me get through my dark times.
Me 2 bro. Right on.
One of their best songs.
Bono's Voice is just awesome in this present Version !
Check your ears
Its one of the most powerful and most beautiful songs from U2!!!!
And underrated unfortunately :(
The Edge’s voice has an amazing tone to it. So underrated.
this song somehow embodies the 90s and all my life experiences during that time
My fav U2 song forever.
+1
My all time favorite! I've been listening to this song for 28 years now and it still brings back so many memories, good and bad, and I know I'll continue listening to it for the rest of my life.. 😙
forever.

This song is great, but this video is on another level. They've truly mastered the stadium act.
Era pé de rádio desde 1985 ligado na jovem pam para ouvir as melhores do u2 até que um dia ganhei uma camisa do u2 da FM cidade jovem pam .tenho até hoje essa camisa.
People can criticise U2 but their durability and worldwide acclaim speak for themselves. Their music connects with people in their souls..........and you feel you've travelled years of your life with them.
How true and well said Nick 👍cheers wherever you may be, 🇦🇺mick
People criticise everything
Don't worry about those p*ssies who are tone deaf... U2 STOPS THE TRAFFIC!!! Best band ever... PERIOD.
This is equivalent to trance music just not long enough . Rocker trance music with all the wonderful guitar work. Love it.
When you watch a performance like this it's hard to believe they are mere mortals.
I met Bono and he is very mortal Sir. Just like you or I. The talent that appears when he is on stage though is immortal.
C'est pour ça qu'il faut vivre l'insat présent intensément,on pense toujours que nous avons le temps. lol.
It's pretty good for a My Bloody Valentine rip-off; shame Edge had to ruin the bridge solo, though; try Washington!
@@cl8804 what the fuck are you even talking about lol how is this anything like mbv HAHA
Mere mortals subject to UCMJ!!!Truth !!!
This performance of Ultra Violet made me finally see the greatness of this song. Over the last 25 years, I have always "kind of liked" this song. This specific performance somehow deconstructs the song just enough to allow the listener to really understand the arrangement and to hear the melodic change-ups better than the album version ever did. The Edge's guitar playing and, more important, background vocals ring through more clearly with this mix and prove they're the engine behind the song; both seemed under-mixed on the album version. Because of this performance, Ultra Violet is now one of my favorite U2 songs. I wish I could get this concert on CD....
i would add the bass and drums too, all together makes for a perfect version of this song.
This song is one of my favourites from Acthon Baby .. great lyrics and catchy guitar riff .. great album ..loads of gems in there
thats awesome. Bonos voice was a bit under the weather for this particular night unfortunately because this was the show they decided to release way ahead of time and also live stream on youtube. It didnt do justice to what his voice can do.
I think that is trademark U2, experiencing the songs differently from the album when they are played live. But I especially have that with songs from AB, like this Ultra Violet for example: so much deeper than the album version. I've had the same with Mysterious Ways, One, Until the End of the World (all three have a different vibe and extended solos live) but especially Love is Blindness from the Sydney live show... that was pure magic. In the same context I also really loved the live versions of Gone, Last Night on Earth, Dirty Day, and Please; they reinvented these under-appreciated songs and me likey. Somewhere halfway through the 360 tour they replaced Ultra Violet by Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me Kill Me, and that also sounded so f*cking awesome. And getting this show on CD isn't really that difficult. If you have the DVD you just convert the audio file to flac or wave files and burn them to a disc.
The arrangement was always there ! I feel Enos production actually takes it to another level ! This is the best live version by a Country Mile but the album version is magical....
Just got tickets today for October Very happy
Words cannot describe what this song means to me!
I think it's the best song U2 ever done!
And I have loads of favorite songs by U2 🤷🏻♂️
This band just amazes me
Achtung Baby probably one of their all time best albums!
One of?
+Caius It is their best album...and arguably the best album of all time.
+MrNutsack100 yep! it is far better than Joshua Tree, overall a better album (although JT is great and With or eithout you an U2 anthem).
+Caius I feel it is the best album from U2!
+Caius Yes, it was such a huge creative leap in 1991. When I first heard Zoo Station, I was blown away by the transformation. Definitely one of the best albums of the 90's!!
I feel like trash….you make me feel clean…..perfect
Classic, if only it were 1991 again right now. good times.
This is my probably my fav U2 song ever specially this version I listen to it every time I miss my beautiful wife
Sorry to hear about your loss...
When I saw them live in 2009, this was the only song that made me cry. I had tears in my eyes while watching them performing Ultraviolet live in Chorzow, 2009.
Was there too
It strikes a chord somewhere deeep inside
This album never gets old.
More true for this album than any other I can think of
I mean, how on earth do people write stuff like this. It's absolutely ridiculous how well these lyrics flow.
Anyone else listening during quarantine?
Listening all the damn time
Quarantine or no quarantjne
All the time since it first landed in my ears
@@jamesdavison2927 Exactly.
im... and is my hope
🙋♂️
Yo.....desde México....
my number 1 of all U2's greats...and this version is the best.
Thanks Foreveything 💯🎀💝💘💘💋😁
u2 thanks for lighting my way always! ❤
Dark Lyrics in a suit with laser beams. So many feels ❤
They sound so good live!!!!!!!!!!
One of the best U2 songs ever!!!!
1991, Achtung Baby: masterpiece!
First there was music, then there was U2!!
I hope i get to see U2 play this song Live in my life someday 🎉
Holy mother of music! This is one of the best songs in the history of humankind!
Marcos I. Vargas V. I'm agree with you.. Ciao from Milan
YES!!
You got it!
Totally agree. Spread the word!
I was there in 2009. I'll never forget it.
U2 PLEASE REMASTER THIS MASTERPIECE

Very good U2 THE BEST!!!!!!!!!
God bless U2 !!!
Can’t believe they managed to top the ZooTV version of this song
Absolutely Achtung Baby is one of the best albums ever. Ultraviolet (light my way) one my top fav songs of many.
❤️U2 forever!
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... Just 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 cover of their great Ordinary Love song. 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/yiUkR6YUNgU/w-d-xo.html
Bless you!
I was a late admirer to Achtung Baby, but this live performance from the 360 tour sold me on this song from this album... mesmerizing
For their ups and downs (in terms of selling albums/CDs/digital, which is, unfortunately, how the industry rates band), U2 has always been an amazing live band. Was lucky to see the ZooTV tour, when Achtung Baby was the new album. For a stadium show, they made it feel intimate. Love the 360tour DVD!
Thirty five years of songs and still at the top. Ultra Violet this time, Every Breaking Wave on the last Tour ... Always pure moments dancing with Angels. Thx Boys !
One of my favs and this live version captures the Flood / Eno recording spirit !
This has got to be the most hair standing on end performance U2 have ever done! They must have sat back, looked at this and thought "f@#k that was good!" The lightning and stage crew need medals.
I was blessed to have been there, Pasadena CA. The Black Eyed Peas opening up with Slash from G&R. Awesome Vibes!
Yes. Got a bit of elevation anxiety on this one. I think we were in the last row LOL. This was a great encore!
What a performance. Love this live version ❤️ specially Bono's dance ❤️
This song is absolutely fantastic.
È indescrivibile vederli dal vivo!!❤
Just to share and educate the listeners, Ultra Violet was Bono's song written as a homage to his dad. The lyric "Baby, baby, baby, light my way" and "opera in my head" is referring to Bono hearing his dad singing opera in the home as this was his dad's profession. Also, Bono (whose real name is Paul Hewson), didn't have a good relationship with his dad, but was inspired by his father's profession as he was growing up. Thus there was turmoil in the household during Bono's formative years, but he did love his father very much. In the later years after his dad passed away from cancer, Bono reflected back and missed him. His song is for his dad, actually.
Woow, didn't know that! And here I was thinking "Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own", was expressly for him, as he stated since Vertigo Tour. I always cry with 'Sometimes', even my dad is still alive, but some of us relate to that kind of relationship at some point.
Whaaat where did you hear this ?? The only song Bono
Wotofo about his dad was Kite around the time his father was dying !
@@michaelmarchei8539 I have one of the biography books written about U2 & BONO and in the book he explained about his dad and about ULTRA VIOLET that he wrote.
This is a complete lie. Educate listeners 😂😂😂.
One of their best songs in my opinion. I rank it right after Where the Streets Have No Name, With or Without You & Pride
This album is unbelievable!!!
Anytime U2 live after Corona! I wish it is Not only a dream. I love U2 since 1985!👍
My favorite U2 song
That jacket with the fog is awesome.
Bono has the voice of an angel
Best U2 album ever...ACTHUNG BABY!
It sounds so sad but so good
What a tune what a group,what a dvd ,I’d crawl to the ends of the earth to see u2,absolutely timeless 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
My fav U2 song. Epic
Wow….just wow.
U2 = THE BIGGER BAND FOR ALL TIMES (for me) [they play and perform lke in studio or radio song, amazing !!!]
U2 are without the best live band ever . I saw them in Cork Ireland when I lived there. Took me to another world. If you get the chance go and see them. Memories that'll last a lifetime...
@Al Catraz, agreed. I saw them in Cardiff in 2005 and still rate it the best live show ever (and I’ve seen the stones, The Who and some other greats).
Besides being loved, loving and sex, there is no greater joy to the brain than U2 Live!
Bono’s vocal here - holy hell!!!!!!
Sometimes I feel like I don't know
Sometimes I feel like checkin' out
I want to get it wrong
Can't always be strong
And love it won't be long...
Oh sugar
Don't you cry
Oh child
Wipe the tears from your eyes
You know I need you to be strong
And the day is as dark as the night is long
Feel like trash
You make me feel clean
I'm in the black
Can't see or be seen
Baby, Baby, Baby light my way
Baby, Baby, Baby light my way
You bury your treasure
Where it can't be found
But your love is like a secret
That's been passed around
There is a silence that comes to a house
Where no one can sleep
I guess it's the price of love
I know it's not cheap
Baby, Baby, Baby light my way
Baby, Baby, Baby light my way
Ultraviolet Love
Ultraviolet Love
Ultraviolet Love
Baby, Baby, Baby light my way
I remember
When we could sleep on stones
Now we lie together
In whispers and moans
When I was all messed up
And I heard opera in my head
Your love was a light bulb
Hanging over my bed
Baby, Baby, Baby light my way,
Baby, Baby, Baby light my way,
Ultraviolet Love
Ultraviolet Love
Ultraviolet Love
Baby, Baby, Baby
Baby, Baby, Baby
Baby, Baby, Baby light my way
Baby, Baby, Baby
Baby, Baby, Baby
Baby, Baby, Baby light my way
Baby, Baby, Baby light my way.
This is possibly their best song ever the way it was played at 360. Was an ungrinded diamond for 18 years but finally they discovered it. It is so complete; powerful and melodic at the same time.
But the best version is no doubt Sheffield Aug 20, 2009!
Johan Sandberg - was there mate. Front and centre about 5 back from the stage. My mate still laughs at how loopy I went when the bridge to this song was played. I knew what was coming and couldn't stop jumping haha
Any link for that performance?
Johan Sandberg a diamond indeed!
Johan Sandberg zoo tour was better
Achtung Baby is a perfect album. Best u2 ever did.
This is the absolute best version of Ultraviolet (Light My Way) in terms of both presentation and performance. Arguably the best song on Achtung Baby. From Larry's matter-of-fact demeanor, to Adam's devilish smirk and great smile, to The Edge's ever-present technical mastery of the guitar, to Bono's command and control of the way he has to use his voice to sing now, these Lads never-ever cease to amaze.
This song helped me rise from a pretty dark time in my life. My wife was the light bulb hanging over my head. That light/love I could count on.
bones2900 👍🙏
U2 has been my light since 1983. UltraViolet
Achtung Baby is their best album!
Damn this song is powefull
Ricardo Medina García
So true!
U2 shadow placê
Taking my 9 yr old son, Charlie, to see U2 for first the time (my 19th) on July 1st. Just told him today. He has watched all the concert videos multiple times and cannot wait. Not sure who is more excited, . His fave album is Achtung Baby.
