This is my favorite U2 song. “Call out your name, call out in pain, call out in shame.” Was a heavy song for my adolescence. The Edges guitar screams, a sonic archetype for melancholy. I see the joy division in this
Song that I would have killed to hear live, but alas, my only opportunity as an adult, I was married to a prick who manipulated my life, and threatened to kick me out for showing my autonomy. And be taken away from my kids.....it was either my love for U2 or my children...
I love it. The guitar sounds as if it’s crying. And the version they did at red rocks incorporated “hold on, hold on tightly” chorus from Drowning Man.
Yeah.. it's mind boggling how horrible that crowd is. They were troopers though and plowed right through like they were playing to the Red Rocks crowd.
Ha, thought the same about the crowd, a bunch of stuffed shirts. They apparently had no idea they were watching what was going to be one of the greatest rock bands in the world very soon.
They were really on fire back then. Post punk geniuses. I've listened to Boy/October/War countless times since the 80's and they never cease to impress me. The songwriting and execution during this phase was just brilliant. Thank you for this video I love it.
The three you mentioned, plus "Unforgettable Fire", make their best career records list. Much as you, I've been listening to those records since the eighties and they are pretty much all U2 you need to listen to.
Twilight, 11 Oclock Tick Tock, I Will Follow, An Cat Dubh, Gloria, Tomorrow, Seconds, Surrender, New Years Day, Two Hearts Beat as One, Sunday Bloody Sunday, Drowning Man, what a collection of songs for your first three albums, a wonderful trilogy.
I saw U2 for the first time, in 1983 in Ft. Lauderdale as a 15-year-old kid for the WAR tour. The Alarm opened up for them and I had second row seats, my ears were ringing the entire next day. Concert ticket - $13.00, concert tee shirt - $10.00, unbelievable. I have seen every concert tour since that time with the exception of Discotheque.
And now U2 barley plays 11 o'clock tick tock if at all- Bono can't reach those high notes anymore its just that soooo much time has passed- they were children then.
My 2nd favorite song of all time. When I first heard this song on Under a Blood Red Sky I got goosebumps bumps and I still do. I can't get enough of this sing. My No. 1 favorite song of all time is New Years Day. All my top 10 favorite songs of all time are from U2.
What's really ironic about this song and its meaning is when life imitates art. In this song, Bono is looking for something outside his bubble. He was inspired to write the lyric after watching an atmospheric performance by the rockabilly/punk band The Cramps. "This was the peak of Goth and the gig was filled with candles," he recalled in the book "U2" by U2. "Voodoo was the order of the day, there was the atmosphere of Black Mass, and I was thinking it was the night of the tragically hip. There was a lostness in the looks on their faces. It was that sepulchral make-up, white face, dark eyes, stuff my mates in the Virgin Prunes were up to their painted eyebrows in. But it felt like the end of the world. To a very young boy, 19 years old, from the suburbs of Dublin, it seemed there was no life here at all. There might have been more humor than I was capable of spotting at the time." - Bono Vox
Huge props need to be given to the boys here - they all maintained amazing energy on stage in front of an absolutely dead crowd. That isn't easy to do, but to see them you'd never know if they were playing to that sleepy group or a theatre of 10000. Incredible stuff.
The amazing thing about history is that you don't realise you're witnessing it until it's after the fact. Which is absolutely prudent in the audiences reaction to this magical performance
What a Boring crowd!! Sitting there like bumps on logs, unbelievable!! I love this song so much, I can’t sit still to this brilliant performance, no way!!!! Absolutely mesmerizing and magical. That amazing guitar, Bono’s passionate voice, the drums, takes me to another stratosphere. Wish I could have seen them then, been a fan since I first heard Boy in 1980. Love this song so much, this melody is so addictive…❤️
Es parte de la historia , las buenas bandas ( depeche por ej) tuvieron q pasar por lo mismo, no es solo el publico sueco casi todos los programas de tv en el mundo traian bandas a shows de tv con gente como aburrida, era la puesta en escena de la tv en aquellos años, a las bandas les servía para darse a conocer mucho mas, era una buena estrategia.
Damn… remember cranking this shit up high in my college dorm room on them technique speakers on Friday nights with the burning of incense in a dim lit room with Xmas lites strung up all over the place & band posters plastered on the walls while I sit there with my buddies pulling on that 2 foot bong giggling our way into the morning hours. Them were the days
Needed something to prod them into moving. Not guessing that they were lucky to see what would become one of the best bands in the 80's and so forth. Kicking themselves afterwards, damn I saw U2 in their infancy, and didn't appreciate them...I try to at least listen to new bands when I first listen to them, and later have gone to say "I remember when so and so first started or played in so and so place." And they went on to be famous....
Strepitosi. Amo questa canzone. E se possibile in questa versione live e’ ancora piu bella. The Edge gia’ allora da ragazzino sapeva suonare con un feeling tempo suono e gusto come nessun altro dei suoi tempi. Grandissimi U2❤
Ces jeunes rockers débordants d énergie et de talent face a un public assis dans une sorte de salle des fêtes 😅. Bien sûr, ils étaient tout jeunes en début de carrière
There were Great live even back in the day remember listening to this song on the old grey whistle test and yes amazing...I also love the song Spanish eyes...I lost all my vinyl in a fire in my flat 5 months back with lots of u2 recordings in there gutted... great upload....
Gee honey, let's go see the biggest band of the last 40 years before no one has heard of them. But don't worry, you won't have to dance, cheer or show any emotion.
When I loved U@ the most... I actually started not liking as much when Joshua Tree came out... But its a great album for sure... I liked their raw more up tempo sounds.. Unforgettable Fire was also one of my favourite albums. Bad...is so good!
I've always loved this song, Edge's lead break is great and Bono coming back in after that is awesome - they really go all out here and the Swede's sit like there like a fucking collection of mannequins.
Great performance...esspec the edge...the sound just resonates in your head still...crowd are not used to this stuff... prefer meatballs,yoddle and Ikea its seems?

We thought we had the answers. It was the questions we had wrong.
I love it. The guitar sounds as if it’s crying. And the version they did at red rocks incorporated “hold on, hold on tightly” chorus from Drowning Man.
Does Adam like his job or what !!!
It sounds a little like Joy Division because Martin Hannett produced the single.
I'm jumping out of my seat 42 years later, how are they sitting still?!
This crowd had no idea who was up on that stage in front of them. OMG Bono is so pure
So boring crowd !
@@francisaypa267 Totally
Yeah.. it's mind boggling how horrible that crowd is. They were troopers though and plowed right through like they were playing to the Red Rocks crowd.
Its like they're playing a dinner theater.
I finally understand why this is my dad’s favorite band
Even back then - the edge had the best guitar sound - what a genius
The Edge is the. Best
The tone on this song is incredible. I believe I read somewhere he wrote this at 17 yo.
This was the best moment of this audience's lives, and they didn't even know it.
So boring like robot crowd
Well they all look middle aged, not really a teen/20something crowd. I guess they took what bookings they could.
Unless they didn't go and see U2 at Roskilde in the summer of '82.
Ha, thought the same about the crowd, a bunch of stuffed shirts. They apparently had no idea they were watching what was going to be one of the greatest rock bands in the world very soon.
So true!!
Damn this is beautiful, with Edge singing so loudly.
Yes sr! He is s crack!

Cannot believe this audience...how can one sit still on a rocking song like this!!!!!
Probably the local senior center on a lunch trip?
If I were there, I woulda made the police blotter the next day for getting up and dancin' on my table !!!
Its like a back to the future moment.
Your not ready for this but your kids are going to love it.
Bono knew that we were going to see it on TH-cam that's why so much effort
lol you killed it bro
lolololol. I had the same thought... at least we can all enjoy this now...
Aaaahhhhh
"We thought that we had the answers. It was the questions we had wrong." My favorite line in my favorite U2 song 🎵 ❤️

Bono at the end, "thank you!" exactly as you encapsulated
absolutly!

One of my favorite U2 songs. Amazing to see them pretty much as kids. Skit bra!
Lord there's nothing better than youth. It's a shame the current generation doesn't embrace it; they'll regret it for sure.
This brings back memories. I loved their sound & style the first time I heard them. EDGE has such a unique tone & style. I sure miss those early 80's😎
You can feel their expression and emotion in this live song. Wow. Amazing ❤
Golden memories of the best band in the world.
This version... It's amazing! 😎
Great guitar sounds from the Edge
That Guitar has The ISO 9000 Certification !!! OMG 2020 The same
Aqui uns meninos que se tornaram com os anos a melhor banda do mundo
proof u2 were willing to play anywhere remember it was on TV and that's all they cared about
Yup. Bono's looking out at that crowd and has to keep telling himself "TV cameras... TV cameras... ignore the stiffs... TV cameras..."
Sad song, sad song, sad song... love this U2 ! For You David ♥️✌🏻💋
What I am seeing here is the emerge of legendary band.
Fabulosos U2, especialmente la memorable guitarra de The Edge.
Y la voz de Bono 👌🏼
I love this band!!!!
On the other hand, I think the audience was hoping for ABBA to make an appearance.
Instead they got a fresh young and sharp U2
Siempre dejando un comentario a mi hermoso Bono 🥰 con una inolvidable canción de mi vida 11 o clock tick rock 👉🖤👈
Unbelievable, who’s idea was it to play at the local morgue?
i was thinking the same thing! crossed arms....etc nothing was gonna stop these guys!
You don't get it. It's cool.
if their manager had been told once he'd been told a million times , always wait til the crowd has finished the mains and just before dessert .
hey it the 80 abba was the thing in sweden but man this crowd is dead
Que platėia de mortos !! Um som destes, eletrizante, pura energia e ninguėm da platėia se anima a acompanhar !!! Inacreditável !!!
WoW. The audience Goes wild 🙂
😆
Damn… remember cranking this shit up high in my college dorm room on them technique speakers on Friday nights with the burning of incense in a dim lit room with Xmas lites strung up all over the place & band posters plastered on the walls while I sit there with my buddies pulling on that 2 foot bong giggling our way into the morning hours. Them were the days
so good.
Amazing band!
Edges sound the reason U2 made it
yeah, incredible guitar.
Grow up
U2 is because of Edge’s guitar.
4 very strong personalities.
That Gibson explorer guitar is iconic.
Fantastic
My God. That was a hard crowd to please. lol. It's just U2 in their prime. Next.
They don't get down with the English language, apparently. Why is this variety show being filmed at a restaurant?
They were watching the giant queen ants laying eggs in the dolly's skull.🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐝🦗🦗🦗🐜🐜🐜🤡🤡🤯🤯💀💀💀💀💀🐸🐸🐍🐒🐵
They weren't ABBA or A-ha,...
They were very good back then, but I'd say their prime would come a few years later after the release of "The Unforgettable Fire".
Oh wow, they're playing it real slow here, compared to the 'Blood Red Sky Live' version! Awesome footage! Love the band's good old times :-)
Love the mullets
Cada que estoy triste por alguna razón ... Está es mi predilecta , la escucho y mejora mi ánimo Siempre 😢
Publicity agent in 1981: "These crowd shots are going to look AWESOME in our promo video!"
Amo a U2 esta canción es de mis predilectas 💜❤️💛💋
No matter if U2 had turned up to the wrong gig, they had the world to speak to with their message
Needed something to prod them into moving. Not guessing that they were lucky to see what would become one of the best bands in the 80's and so forth. Kicking themselves afterwards, damn I saw U2 in their infancy, and didn't appreciate them...I try to at least listen to new bands when I first listen to them, and later have gone to say "I remember when so and so first started or played in so and so place." And they went on to be famous....
Sin duda en cualquier versión o momento es mi súper predilecta . Gracias mi U2 💕❣️💞💗♥️
Very pure Energy
The _real_ U2 ;)
Just amazing
Now the stadiums are packed
My favorite band on MTV
Strepitosi. Amo questa canzone. E se possibile in questa versione live e’ ancora piu bella. The Edge gia’ allora da ragazzino sapeva suonare con un feeling tempo suono e gusto come nessun altro dei suoi tempi.
Grandissimi U2❤
Una canción que me encanta ya la tengo tatuada ... Siempre en mi corazón 👉❣️👈 Mi Bono 🙃
on of the best songs with I will follow, Pride and Bad and and and
Eles são guerreiros, merecem todo sucesso que tem, cada publico osso!!
Must be SO difficult to perform to mannequins like that. :). Great song.
great song
What kind of audience is this?😳 These boys are rocking it regardless. Bono's angel face 👼😍😍
I dare say that's the most inanimate audience U2 ever played to, Its like they are interrupting a good meal!
U2 FOREVER 💪💪💪❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍
Amazing from this show to the live aid performance was only 4 years!!!🙌🤘
Scandinavian ecstasy...
Fan, vad kul!
this is why the swedes handled corona...calm, cool, collected. also cool to hear U2 sound irish.
They were probably doing it more for the Camera exposure than the audience gratification.
Energy and Power and message
Great old footage of The Edge
at least no one in the audience was talking on their cell phone.
Que platėia de mortos !! Um som destes, eletrizante, pura energia e ninguėm da platėia se anima a acompanhar !!! Inacreditável !!!
Ces jeunes rockers débordants d énergie et de talent face a un public assis dans une sorte de salle des fêtes 😅. Bien sûr, ils étaient tout jeunes en début de carrière
Aahh the old reverb/echo/delay on Larry's snare drum ...loved the 80s
Mi canción favorita ♥️🖤♥️ la amo es parte de mi vida 💜♥️♥️🖤
There were Great live even back in the day remember listening to this song on the old grey whistle test and yes amazing...I also love the song Spanish eyes...I lost all my vinyl in a fire in my flat 5 months back with lots of u2 recordings in there gutted... great upload....
❤️ I LOVE U2 ❤️💜💙💚🌹💋
Strange set up, it looks like a night at a Stockholm Berni Inn, where the customers had had u2 thrust upon them unexpectedly 😮
Bono says, "Its a cabaret", and he is right, right he is. But that does not stop U2 perform, the public looks star struck.
Gee honey, let's go see the biggest band of the last 40 years before no one has heard of them. But don't worry, you won't have to dance, cheer or show any emotion.
Listen to The Edge ....
Fantastic crowd here. Out of control.
Nice gem you have here. Thanks
Mullen JR is the greatest rock drummer of all time.
Thomas Stone joking 😂😂
milwyr
Respect to this talented drummer. Greatest rock drummer of all time.
2:50.....wow, tough crowd!
Lovely supper club gig.
When I loved U@ the most... I actually started not liking as much when Joshua Tree came out... But its a great album for sure... I liked their raw more up tempo sounds.. Unforgettable Fire was also one of my favourite albums. Bad...is so good!
Except recognize 'Achtung Baby' as their tour de force.
Such a powerful performance!!!
I've always loved this song, Edge's lead break is great and Bono coming back in after that is awesome - they really go all out here and the Swede's sit like there like a fucking collection of mannequins.
Awesome
Great performance...esspec the edge...the sound just resonates in your head still...crowd are not used to this stuff... prefer meatballs,yoddle and Ikea its seems?
If they only knew.
Never give up!
Oh Gosh !
Amazing song for that years...
Cracking version!!!
Damn did the eighties ever have some great hair lol. Miss growing up in that decade.
Chris Robinic poor edge never did have the hair
💙🙏
Love this ❤
Thanks for this ! ;-)
Stunning audience, indeed !
💖💜❤️💙💚💛 I LOVE MY BONO 💋💋💋💋💋💋
they were listening to those who would become the biggest rock band in the world but didn't know it😄
What a crowd!
I preffer this phase of U2, the First álbuns
Fo sure!
The last two decades have been pretty cringeworthy.
@@FoobsTon. I dont think so, i preffer till 1986
No hay día que escuche esta belleza de canción
Love this
