And after all this years we still haven’t got this masterpiece in any U2 album. I sometimes think that never will we ever hear this as an official release. It’s a blessing we can listen to it here in TH-cam.
Now we might finally get it... kind of. It seems to have mutated into different songs for How To Reassemble An Atomic Bomb. Better than nothing I guess..?
The original unreleased version is among the best things this band has ever done, but this version... even with the shorter verses, the different chorus, and the different bridge... is still pretty amazing and heartfelt. Would have been the best song on either of the "Songs of..." albums.
This version is their finished version. Proves that you can overwork a song. I left this comment on one of the videos of the original demo. This is the only version we know. We have, the fans, only heard this one since before How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb. This version came out with the leaks at that time. So we only know it as this masterpiece. The later live version feels like a lesser version.
@@mosesmolina6427the original Mercy is not a demo that’s a myth. It was the 12th track on HTDAAB until they had to trim the runtime, so it was finished. The 2010 version and Luckiest Man In The World are re works because the band can’t help themselves always changing old material. The original Mercy is the superior version
Next to ZooTv, I think this tour is their second best. Just something about it. I think it’s the self confidence they seemed to have at this point in their career. ZooTv was the absolute height of their self confidence. They were on top of the world for sure.
Agreed. I think that’s because on Zoo TV, Bono was at his peak vocally & on 360, he was fully recovered from the 97-05 shakiness in his voice. He was fully confident again. Personally, my favourite vocal era is Elevation Tour though.
Interesting topic you bring up. Here are my (unsolicited😇) $.02.. I think we can all agree ZooTV is at the top. I would put 360° 3rd behind Joshua Tree as well. There were also some shows within PopMart, Elevation, and Vertigo tours that I like more than any show on 360°. However if what we’re talking about is the best overall product with the highest floor, 360° is probably the most consistent night in and night out quality product they’ve ever done. Mostly because Bono learned proper technique to safely deliver a vocal he was able replicate night after night after night after night. Whereas on Elevation, Vertigo, and PopMart, he had quite a few really poor nights sprinkled among the great ones.
Great video! Great song! The wonderful great U2! Thanks to Sirius XM's U2 Experience channel I am now familiar with this version and absolutely love it! I looked for it on TH-cam and found it here! Awesome!
I'm hearing mercy will be on the shadow release of htdaab coming shortly retitled "the luckiest man in the world" I really hope so as it's a quality tune that absolutely should've been on the album originally
yes and no, i love the studio version and love the"new parts" of the live version, and i "hate" if i have to choose ONE. Because one of them, if i have to choose, loose a part of the other. I would like in a perfect world make a mix of two of them. But i still prefer to have to know them. Apologize me, i am a little bit drunk.
Tema no incluido en "How to dismanttle an atomic bomb" y que hoy es el primer corte de "songs of ascent", con buena crítica frente a los malos comentarios de su disco anterior.
Watching this in hindsight, I would love to know why it didn’t get a berth on one of the last two albums. Definitely strong enough to replace a few other songs - assuming it didn’t fit either album’s creative vision?
I am. You are I’m up. You’re down Together we’re balance We enhance I have a white gown To live to die You’re always in my being Oh my That’s my way of seeing Lillies a sexual scent A veil of white decent You’ve seen my soul I’m so vulnerable You make me feel whole
😍😍😍 I was drinking some wine... and it turned to blood What's the use of religion... if you're any good I know I'm weedkiller honey... and you're sugar If you're the prosecution... I get away with murder If you were ice... I'm water And with your telescope... I can see further We're binary code... a one and a zero You wanted violins... and you got Nero You're gravity... searching for the ground You're silence... searching for a sound Your heart is aching... your heart is my home It's fascinating... I know I'll never be alone I'm rippin' the stitches You got two hands to rub I'm in the ditches Of someone else's love Love is when I lie Love puts the blue back in my eye Love will come again I'll be gone again... again If you're hunger... baby let me feed it If your heart is full... baby let me bleed it And happiness is for... those who don't really need it You love me... too much You always loved me... too much When I was rippin' the stitches You got two fists to rub I'm in the ditches Of someone else's luck Love is when I lie Love puts the blue back in my eye Love has come again I am gone again Love's got to be with a wink Only then love gets a chance to speak Love will come again I'll be gone again... again I... I can't escape myself I hear you talk Feeling nothing I fear nothing Feel.... I can hear so much Fear nothing I feel so much Fear... nothing Love has come again I am gone again Love is the end of history The enemy of misery Love has come again I am gone again Love is justice, a charity Love brings with it a clarity Love has come again I'm alive again Alive... I am alive, baby I'm born again and again And again, and again and again and again Again Let the heart answer❣
I feel this is a soulless version. no synergy, forced lyrics, too much words even. Not a fan of this. Even though I thought it was cool hearing mercy live

it's fucking fantastic! you wanna kill me and I wanna die! unreal!!!!

@alexandriaocasio-smollett5078 Very good points
This is one of the best U2 songs ever made .
And not officially released as of 2022
It really is! I only just heard of it today. 🌹
I'm with you mate! Fantastic!
The need to have this on songs of experience
the rumours are it is on the album, but when it come out and if it comes out only edge know! lyrics and music amazing!!
This is an amazing song!
This and North Star need to be officially released
What a beautiful song! - they should play this more on the E+I Tour.
My second favourite song. Very moving and I love everything about it. Revealing…..
That guitar solo 😍😍😍
What solo?
@@thuurmans from 3:19 to 3:35
Seen this live in Brussels 14 years ago. Brilliant!❤

Great live version! U2 Always on the top of music scene!
How wonderful this song
... December 2020, from Sicily to Dublin with love
Great video! Great song! The wonderful great U2! Thanks to Sirius XM's U2 Experience channel I am now familiar with this version and absolutely love it! I looked for it on TH-cam and found it here! Awesome!
Julie X wish they had there own permanent channel!!
Yeah, that would so incredibly awesome!
I'm hearing mercy will be on the shadow release of htdaab coming shortly retitled "the luckiest man in the world"
I really hope so as it's a quality tune that absolutely should've been on the album originally
💯

40 years fan. But i'm still getting fucking
grazy, by hearing songs of U2 live these.

Marvelous song!!!!
Wow amazing quality video. Thanks!
I love the studio version, but I still like this short live version.

Espetáculo
This song is fuckin amazing.
Should be on a album why not put it on the next album there do its a masterpiece love it
Ouch. My heart hurts.
Why?
Than you xox
A melhor banda do planeta 🌍🌎🌏 🇮🇪
How can we get hold of this track?!Love it 👌🏻
This song along with winter should be on an album.Best two songs in years period
Tema no incluido en "How to dismanttle an atomic bomb" y que hoy es el primer corte de "songs of ascent", con buena crítica frente a los malos comentarios de su disco anterior.
Amazing song. Too bad was never released.
Watching this in hindsight, I would love to know why it didn’t get a berth on one of the last two albums. Definitely strong enough to replace a few other songs - assuming it didn’t fit either album’s creative vision?
They must make an album of their working tapes..👍👍👍
Eso fue hermoso!!!!
Linda demais , lembra eles no início .
U2 should be arrested for not having this on an album. Maybe even the death penalty.
omg hotest version of this song
Can't believe how much they messed up this song. The original demo version was perfection. Just like everything after Pop, over-produced.
Parece que How to re assemble la tendrá
Que rabia da, que no editen estos temazos...!!!
What does he say after "Because because because we can..."?
Linda
❤
This version is not even half as good the recorded version which Is perfect .....
🎉❤💥
I am. You are
I’m up. You’re down
Together we’re balance
We enhance
I have a white gown
To live to die
You’re always in my being
Oh my
That’s my way of seeing
Lillies a sexual scent
A veil of white decent
You’ve seen my soul
I’m so vulnerable
You make me feel whole
nice job! the audio is so good! where did you get it??
u2 é a banda maior banda de ROK DO MUNDO
Dan Reese this is the official wide awake in europe lp audio release
😍😍😍
I was drinking some wine... and it turned to blood
What's the use of religion... if you're any good
I know I'm weedkiller honey... and you're sugar
If you're the prosecution... I get away with murder
If you were ice... I'm water
And with your telescope... I can see further
We're binary code... a one and a zero
You wanted violins... and you got Nero
You're gravity... searching for the ground
You're silence... searching for a sound
Your heart is aching... your heart is my home
It's fascinating... I know I'll never be alone
I'm rippin' the stitches
You got two hands to rub
I'm in the ditches
Of someone else's love
Love is when I lie
Love puts the blue back in my eye
Love will come again
I'll be gone again... again
If you're hunger... baby let me feed it
If your heart is full... baby let me bleed it
And happiness is for... those who don't really need it
You love me... too much
You always loved me... too much
When I was rippin' the stitches
You got two fists to rub
I'm in the ditches
Of someone else's luck
Love is when I lie
Love puts the blue back in my eye
Love has come again
I am gone again
Love's got to be with a wink
Only then love gets a chance to speak
Love will come again
I'll be gone again... again
I... I can't escape myself
I hear you talk
Feeling nothing
I fear nothing
Feel....
I can hear so much
Fear nothing
I feel so much
Fear... nothing
Love has come again
I am gone again
Love is the end of history
The enemy of misery
Love has come again
I am gone again
Love is justice, a charity
Love brings with it a clarity
Love has come again
I'm alive again
Alive...
I am alive, baby I'm born again and again
And again, and again and again and again
Again
Let the heart answer❣
what album is this song on? i never heard it before.
It is a version in progress, th-cam.com/video/JFS0h1SLTWY/w-d-xo.html this is different
Bono - Always struggling with his inner-ear monitors :)
😎😎😎👽🦊🦊🦊🦊
this makes me want to get drunk and dive into the river liffey and die happily heigh ho
Origina demol version are much better than live version
studio version is much much better.
agree - studio version much better. the segments added here that were not in the studio version just sound silly.
Rockman Rossi agreed
Don’t get all the love for this song. Just a B Side track simple.
Great song, but if they add 'when I was ripping the stiches...' and 'love hears when i lie...', this song will be perfect.
Sorry but I prefer the original chorus (”I’m rippin the stitches...”).
No no no- original words and arrangement please. This is not good- v disappointed
I feel this is a soulless version. no synergy, forced lyrics, too much words even. Not a fan of this. Even though I thought it was cool hearing mercy live
Definitely worse than the original
