This clip of the song is great! The version on their Best of CD is not. It's slower and strange. I never really took note of it before. They should put out live albums.
@@travis07ful It actually was a single, from the Batman Forever soundtrack. I still have the cassette (of the single, not the soundtrack). There's even an official video.
I meant in the modern era, even going back over the past decade...whether they could do it, or still can, I dunno. How does a song like this get left off Zooropa?
Scuse me mate but U2 is u2... And the Beatles are the real masters of all they revolucionary all the music but U2 is still agazing and got things diferent that George Harrison., Johnn .. salutes my fríend from Argentina land of corrupt people governents haha
@@danielsimon7969 Yes but what I'm saying is that I wasn't alive for the Beatles, but U2/u2 is essentially the equivalent of the Beatles for people of my generation.
I wasn't alive for the Beatles, all due respect to u2 and I absolutely love this song... but I couldn't disagree more. They simply are not the best in the world. Great band tho
The Edge may not be overly adventurous and he doesnt often move outside his comfort zone but he is easily one of the most underated guitarists of his generation, absolutely incredible!
I think Edge does get out of comfort zone; not technical thing like sweep picking or tapping, but his texture and feeling of the sounds have gone through crazy journey
Randy Watson Errrr......no. I'm a guitarist and The Edge is using his Wah pedal during the verses because that's the composition of the song. You can see him play the song in the same way during their Popmart Tour of '97.
that´s what I meant. he´s using his expression pedal in this case not for wah. should be some sort of pitch shifting effect otherwise the verse would sound more like mysterious ways. at least it´s the way I used to play this song .. I tried to recreate the sound in the verse with pitch shifting and it worked out really well for me back then.
Most expensive tour in rock history, I am glad/fortunate enough to experience it at MI State U Football stadium. The whole football field was the stage!
While this is pretty hard for a U2 song, it's pretty easy to argue that most of Achtung Baby is as hard if not harder than this(as it is an Achtung Baby outtake). I would give it a listen if you ever have time.
One of their best ‘rockier’ songs, in the same vein as ‘Bullet The Blue Sky’ and ‘Vertigo’. Doesn’t receive as much attention, underrated. And they don’t often sing it live.
Let’s face it. The edge may not be jimmy page or Jimi Hendrix but this song rocks, just like a lot of other U2 songs. What makes him so good is how he fits the rifs and pitch w bono and changes the keys as he ages that’s y the edge is unreal
AMAZING SONG AND PERFORMANCE! Heath Ledger Joker's voice at the opening was great! And like someone else already said here before, this song's about the highs and lows of celebrity, how high a star can get and how deep can fall and maybe some other characteristics of humanity aswell like, fanatism, the darkness within and stuff...that's was surely what Bono was thinking about when he wrote it i guess
um, that isn't Heath Ledger's voice in the beginning. Not in the film, nor does it sound anything like him. Its clearly Bono's voice if you listen to him saying the exact thing at the end. Not trying to split hairs here but hey, get it right, for posterity.
Also, im pretty sure Bono is lip-syncing to a pre-existing rerecording of his vocals to this song which is kinda lame but im assuming is in place whenever he feels his natural voice would not suffice. A common occurance for vocalists who have done as much endless touring for 30 years as U2 have pretty much done.
I would say to probably about 85% of bands that have ever existed, this would be the greatest song ever written. But these guys have so many hits like this that they don’t even bother playing at 90% of the time. It’s wild. Heck, I’m a U2 fan. And I forget about this song sometimes. But it is so good. I would imagine the fact that it’s associated with a horrendous movie hurt a little bit. But the song is incredible.
Ahí estuvimos, a 1 metro del escenario, cansados antes del show por habernos cagado de frío en la pista atletica, la noche anterio y cagarnos de calor en el día, duermiendo poco y nada....pero valío la pena. Mismo esfuerzo hicimos el 2006 ✌
Grew up with this song. My brother used to play it around the house. Loved it then. Loved that Batman film. Such a good soundtrack too. This might be my fav performance of this song. The energy and excitement! The moving video graphics in the intro and the mic and the lights. Those divine, twisting, sexy guitar licks from The Edge! Bono in his element! Love it... Thanks for the childhood nostalgia. All the smoke and fog! So good... Awesome! Thanks for the post! 360! U2!
Novembro de 2019 ouvindo esse espetáculo , lembro de ouvir essa musica em 1995 , Bons tempos que a MTV só tocava coisa boa ! Ps: Acho que essa musica era da trilha sonora do Batman eternamente .
Great to see a live vid up of this. It seems to be a song they haven't performed that often in recent years, so I'm guessing it's a hard song to perform live for whatever reason and get the effect they're after with a live performance. Shame, because it's definitely one of my favourite U2 songs.
The 360 tour was an amazing accomplishment and sight to see I was very lucky to be a part of that and witness what I believe was the best tour I have ever seen in my life... Thank you U2!!
Bought the soundtrack while in South Korea when it came out. I remember singing it and learning it during a late night guard shift. Camp Pelham (Garry Owen) South Korea US Army.

One of their best and most underrated songs that always gets overlooked amidst all their hit singles. This song is awesome
Yes, it is.
I like the sleazy feel it has to it B-)
Wasnt a single, it was from Batman Forever soundtrack
This clip of the song is great! The version on their Best of CD is not. It's slower and strange. I never really took note of it before. They should put out live albums.
@@travis07ful It actually was a single, from the Batman Forever soundtrack. I still have the cassette (of the single, not the soundtrack). There's even an official video.
Bono’s vocals here sound incredible
really?i was thinking the opposite
I think they sound pretty bad on this song. And I'm a huge fan, seen them live 7 times.
This song banged so hard in the 90s and still does!
2024.10月👍
Officially the coooooolest microphone in the entire history of mankind.
Amazing song. One of their best and probably most overlooked/underrated ❤
Troof
Live was amazing
Edge's guitar sounding savage here
its not only edge who plays guitar. Ihear at least a second guitar and strings
Yes!
It’s always savage. He’s better than Hendrix
the tone is amazing.
the whole package is beyond words
Just here?!? ;-)
I don’t care what anyone says U2 are a great band.
U2 should make more songs like this.
T Rex ain't so easy to copycat...
I meant in the modern era, even going back over the past decade...whether they could do it, or still can, I dunno. How does a song like this get left off Zooropa?
It reached #16 on the Billboard Hot 100. Very accepted.
We wish. It’s a cocaine song. Their other songs are mostly pussy songs
They should ride into the sunset
you won't believe it but this one is my favorite u2 song...seriously
Batman forever
I believe it...it is a good song
@erol gulten I see. Impossible to not like that! 😉👍🏻💯
mine too man
É uma ótima música
Best live version I've heard so far
Try the Mexico version, even better imo only..
U2 makes it look so easy. This band is the Beatles of my generation. They're simply the best in the world.
Scuse me mate but U2 is u2... And the Beatles are the real masters of all they revolucionary all the music but U2 is still agazing and got things diferent that George Harrison., Johnn .. salutes my fríend from Argentina land of corrupt people governents haha
@@danielsimon7969 Yes but what I'm saying is that I wasn't alive for the Beatles, but U2/u2 is essentially the equivalent of the Beatles for people of my generation.
I love both epic iconic bands you mention here!
I wasn't alive for the Beatles, all due respect to u2 and I absolutely love this song... but I couldn't disagree more. They simply are not the best in the world. Great band tho
We was thy X-rays we g
The song that got me into U2.
The Best U2 tune ever for me in my humble opinion.
There's certainly more "testosterone" in this song than in most of U2's biggest hits. It's more bold and more powerful. :)
The Joshua Tree 2017 and Zoo TV the bests
This was the first U2 song I ever heard. My parents bought the Batman Forever soundtrack. Epic...
I love your humble opinion
@@taekwondotime *testosterone Yep, and how! 👍🏻
I like how Bono enunciates SO well in this live version... all sorts of lyrics I can finally understand haha.
Incredible guitar work by the one and only Edge! It's as if he's playing a symphony on his guitar.
They guy is almost sampling himself. A true masterful artist!
I think he uses any Mekvox sintetyziser, or sampler or such (maybe based o the guitar solo). Not really sure of this.
The Edge may not be overly adventurous and he doesnt often move outside his comfort zone but he is easily one of the most underated guitarists of his generation, absolutely incredible!
I think Edge does get out of comfort zone; not technical thing like sweep picking or tapping, but his texture and feeling of the sounds have gone through crazy journey
he´s pitch shifting most of the song. he needs his board there. thats why.
Couldn't agree more. He is phenomenal in his minimalist way.
Randy Watson Errrr......no. I'm a guitarist and The Edge is using his Wah pedal during the verses because that's the composition of the song. You can see him play the song in the same way during their Popmart Tour of '97.
that´s what I meant. he´s using his expression pedal in this case not for wah. should be some sort of pitch shifting effect otherwise the verse would sound more like mysterious
ways. at least it´s the way I used to play this song .. I tried to recreate the sound in the verse with pitch shifting and it worked out really well for me back then.
21 years old and can't get enough of U2. This song is just truly epic, use it to pump me up before engineering exams!
Interesting to know that the guys who build villains secret bases and gadgets have to be suitable qualified
Run with it!! The best generation Is now!!!! Turn the world Into the next chapter.
This is one of their best songs of all time.
This song is one of U2's best and stands out in their catalog. Now 25 years old, I think its still provocative and fun💘. LOVE U2 always...SoFla🇺🇸
Best live version of this song.
Most expensive tour in rock history, I am glad/fortunate enough to experience it at MI State U Football stadium. The whole football field was the stage!
The Edge is everything you could ever ask for in a ROCK STAR! This song just validates it.
One of my favorite U2 songs, they don't play it enough! Awesome sound, nailed it.
I think its because when they do it, it makes it all the more spectacular. Like if you had a treat all the time, it wouldn't be a treat.
stunning guitar played
One word describes this song and performance.....INCREDIBLE!
U2
The best live version of this song... amazing... bravo U2!!!
Favorite live version. Amazing!
U2 REALLY should do this song in concert more often! It's easily one of my favorite U2 songs, and it's from a pretty underrated superhero flick too!
My favourite U2 song! I love how they used the sound of the violin alongside the electric guitar in that way. So effective!
One of the best live bands ever !
U2 es la mejor banda del mundo, y The Edge es de los mejores guitarristas del mundo 💜 los amo
Sin duda alguna amigo
no lo dudo, son épicos. ♡
That opening is gotta be the best. Perfect timing.
when a song becomes art - an absolute masterpeice - vocal/lyrics are outmof this world
This might be one of the greatest live performances of a song I have ever layed eyes n ears on
Yo estuve ahí!!!! Gran concierto, hasta Journey estaba entre el público.
Batman Forever awesome tune thanks for posting!
Mek Vox
i love this to
@Zero Kool The only thing to save from Batman Forever is just this epic and awesome U2 song. 🦇😉
Estadio Nacional de Santiago.... Ahí estuve! Gracias por este vídeo!
Yo si hubiera sido más grande hubiera ido.
Yo también estuve
Yo tb!!!
Best U2 song. I can listen it 5 times with no break ;)
I think this is one of the hardest song U2 has ever played
Yeah. It's up there with "The Fly" (especially the 2001 version live from Boston").
Like a Song and Bullet The Blue Sky are most hard. U2 in their prime are at post-punk band.
Maybe but... it's not necessary to be noisy to be hard
"Acrobat" for example ;)
While this is pretty hard for a U2 song, it's pretty easy to argue that most of Achtung Baby is as hard if not harder than this(as it is an Achtung Baby outtake). I would give it a listen if you ever have time.
What's so hard about it? It's pretty simple to sing/play actually.
You're Star!..💫
Magnificent song, U2's best.
Saw the movie twice because of the soundtrack back when I was a teen still rocking it ❤
I definitely love this riff. The Edge is awesome.
Love this... especially that microphone, and the stagehands following Bono around with the smoke machines.
This is a great song, great lyrics and everything
When you ask U2 to contribute a song to a movie and they present you with this masterpiece.
It's actually a Zooropa outtake, its title is hidden in the Zooropa album artwork.
@@robertwiles8106 interesting
U2 forever, Batman forever 😎
Great band, great song, great show. Thanks for upload this magic performance.
It has to be Edge who picked this particular performance of the song? God Bless him for that #U2
My god this song sounds amazing. I didn't hear this live version.! I LOVE IT.
They play this song twice in Chile... 1998 and 2011. Here the 1998's link th-cam.com/video/tWh_wJEyYQ0/w-d-xo.html
I was there. As a U2 and batman fan, it was amazing!
What a song. What a performance!
One of their best ‘rockier’ songs, in the same vein as ‘Bullet The Blue Sky’ and ‘Vertigo’. Doesn’t receive as much attention, underrated. And they don’t often sing it live.
vertigo was my favorite song! ♡
The way bono opened up this song is just...BADASS
Another,another fantastic song of this incredible band...i love you forever U2...
The biggest tour in history this tops ever bands live performance ever in over 55 years of rock and roll , he'll it even tops zoo tv
At the end when bono is swinging on the mic and laughing evilly just cracked me up!!! Classic!
Let’s face it. The edge may not be jimmy page or Jimi Hendrix but this song rocks, just like a lot of other U2 songs. What makes him so good is how he fits the rifs and pitch w bono and changes the keys as he ages that’s y the edge is unreal
I died when he started swinging from that mic.
He almost died too lol
And me too!
Lol
Lol it added humor to such an intense performance
La mejor canción de U2 ever!!!

A common occurance for vocalists who have done as much endless touring for 30 years as U2 have pretty much done.
+Rudy Dembinski he didn't lip sync, this song was just edited to a different track. Says so in the description
Is anyone more comfortable on stage than Bono ? Great song .
A brilliant rock n roll spectacle. U2 always delivers!
What a song. Anything from the 90s from them is very good
Perfect! Nice job, Edge's guitar playing is brilliant here
THE HEAVIEST U2 SONG!!!! along with THE FLY & BULLET THE BLUE SKY
Lars Ulrich would be proud as the biggest fan of U2 haha
What time is it in the world.? It's Showtime... Those riffs by the Edge tho, epic.
Amazing live performance! 🤘🏻
Amazing performance!!
It blows my mind! Allusinating version of this incredible song. Powerful performance. U2 rocks!
Que otro nivel la entrada de bono, no puedo dejar de repetir esa parte
My favorite song from u2 i love this
Their best song, heard it on acid for the first time driving through Sydney with a girl at 4am in the late 90’s.
Never left me.
The Edge tone is so compressed... what a fucking amazing tone.
batman forever was a springboard for this song, along with Kiss from a Rose, both written for the film.
I would say to probably about 85% of bands that have ever existed, this would be the greatest song ever written. But these guys have so many hits like this that they don’t even bother playing at 90% of the time. It’s wild. Heck, I’m a U2 fan. And I forget about this song sometimes. But it is so good.

Powerful and absolutely beautiful!!! Great sound and visuals!!!

Great performance love it
Oh my god this is so good.

Only song I wished they played at the Sphere. Acoustics and Visuals would have been incredible.
Same here! I was there last night at the sphere
Mi favorita de U2. Cuando la escucho en el gym me siento batimamado.
Outstanding !!
You gotta admit, Edge's vibrato is one of the best, actually
Best song they ever done
I LOVE THIS BAND SO MUCH their music's unique and their gigs are the biggest amazing, so inventive and creative!
One of my favourite songs of 1995 - clearly underrated. Strange that they've hardly ever played it live!
Ya 10 años!!..de uno de los mejores conciertos por su despliegue👏🤟🍻
The 360 tour was an amazing accomplishment and sight to see I was very lucky to be a part of that and witness what I believe was the best tour I have ever seen in my life... Thank you U2!!
