#U2 #AllIWantIsYou #Remastered
Lyrics:
You say you want diamonds on a ring of gold
You say you want your story to remain untold.
All the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you.
You say you'll give me a highway with no-one on it
Treasure, just to look upon it
All the riches in the night.
You say you'll give me eyes in the moon of blindness
A river in a time of dryness
A harbour in the tempest.
All the promises we make, from the cradle to the grave
When all I need is you.
You say you want your love to work out right
To last with me through the night.
You say you want diamonds on a ring of gold
Your story to remain untold
Your love not to grow cold.
All the promises we break, from the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you. - เพลง
Thirty five years since the summer of 1989....sitting in a car with the boy I loved. Longing in his eyes...playing me this song for the first time. The music washes over me and I'm right back in that car at age 18 with my whole life ahead of me. Given the power to go back and do it again, I'd have never let him go. Powerful song. 35 years seems like a minute ago. That six minutes and 37 seconds stands still in eternity. In my soul. How can a song be so razor sharp for this long?
It's called Love my dear.
The power of love, the eternalness of music.
I sang this song to my new wife at our wedding reception. Later that night on the way back to our hotel, as we were driving across the Sydney Harbour Bridge, this song came onto the radio. It was such a surreal moment!
No such thing as coincidence Damien.
Perfect Wedding Song. 💖
Yeah I think it’s a great choice for a song at a wedding. First dance or whatever. The other one I thought of was U2’s ‘love rescue me’. However I think playing it on a first date like the guy above said is putting the poor girl under too much pressure! 😯It’s a very emotional song.
Amazing your a top guy
It's my fantasy proposal. We are someplace special and he steps out and I hear this song outside. He is holding something that is playing this like in the John Hughes movie or has musicians playing the string instalment like the song while he sings to me
I watched this vid to see if it still affects me after 30 years, it still does
The 'Edge's' guitar riff is out of this world! 👍
3:50 to 4:30 is incredible.
Hurts to love somebody you cant have
Never a truer word said.
Yeah i know that Feeling. I tell her i Love her,But She let Us be Friends. It Hurts so much...😢
@@johnharris9823Better to have her in your life as a friend than not in your life at all.
Yeah but there's a lot of pain, compromise, despair, etc, essentially a wealth of negative emotion that one can go through before reaching that realization and acting upon it to make it your choice. Way way easier said than done in the end. Life is excruciatingly complex and you are often your own worst enemy, your greatest own biggest impediment
I feel that! I’m in love with my best friend and I just can’t freaking stand it. I want to make that shift but I don’t know how. I don’t think he does either, or if he even wants to. It seems like he does, but he won’t do anything about it. Lol, mind blown. He randomly told me today that I’m very influential….ok, dude, then why can’t I influence you to give it a shot? 😂
I have always believed that somewhere in the world there are still people who can feel the same emotions I feel when I listen to this timeless masterpiece.
No, it's just you
There are a few of us left
I have a slight suspicion that the guitar solo opens up the chakra centers and provides the perceiver with an intense moment of clarity.
Fewer and fewer of us, it seems...
But yes, you are not alone.
GAY
One of the most beautiful songs of our time, it still gives me chills the delicate yet powerful instrumental arrangement. This song will never get old!
I agree and feel the same .
Same here
This guitar solo in this song incredible.
Full of emotion.. suits the songs story.
We can all relate to the haunting power and pain of this. We've all seen that person who simply takes our breath away and for whatever reason...something about our circumstance...something about theirs...timing...they are just out of reach. And it crushes and burns and cuts like a knife in a way that changes us. And we somehow keep breathing. A masterpiece of visceral longing & unrequited love.
So well said!
The moment you realize your life is just a memory of old songs that you love...
well said pal
Exactly this. Music is the only thing that makes me connect to memories and make them seem real.
Amen
❤
so true...didn't know where the time went..but the songs take U back..make U feel...then we have to go...
Van Dyke Parks deserves a lot of credit for the beautiful, chilling string arrangements. One of the most beautiful rock songs ever.
One of U2's best written, composed and played out songs ever!
Bono wrote it for Ali, his wife. That makes it all the more special.
Played out? It actually the most underrated song that isn’t as known as much as their other songs
@@StMichael7 I think they mean the long outro of the song...
@@danielc1978 That’s not what he meant
@@StMichael7underplayed?
One of the rare instances where the video matches the magnitude of the song.
Beautifully done.
I strongly disagree with that. I think almost every U2 video perfectly matches the song. This one is awesome and I'm so glad they finally put it up.
I totally agree
Tony can you explain the video 📹 I thought the little fella died 😳
That’s true - the video is iconic
@@edbredin6406 He did die, the last shot of him at a funeral is the woman's dream, wishing it had been her instead because of the guilt she felt.
The best video of U2 in the 80's!
Was filmed in the town of Ostia, outside of Rome. Most of the footage was shot on a beach on the outskirts of Ostia, but there is one shot in the town itself. The church that can be seen when the funeral procession is happening is the Basilica of Santa Aurea.
I thought so, I remember seeing this on MTV,when they used to play videos.
Just out of curiosity, is this the same actor that played on Game of Thrones?
@@michaelmartinez3674 no. GoT was played by Peter Dinklage.
@@michaelmartinez3674 Paolo Rissi is the Italian actor in the video. And Peter Dinklage is the American actor from Game of Thrones. They are similar, but not the same.
@@wanderer8989 OK, thanks 😊
The church is actually in Ostia Antica, not Ostia. They are both very near to each other though. The beach looks to be along the coast south of Ostia at the Cancelli, which are public beaches with large sand dunes.
This song takes me to my late husband. I lost him to pancreatic cancer March 1st, 2006. He's visited me 3 times in my dreams since 2012 warning of the times we're in now in the world. I cry everytime I hear it now. I miss him.
Beautiful.
Im sooo sorry for your loss i loss my very deer friend we were secteatly inlove and i did not knnow that the last time i saw him would be the it rip chris a.k.a crispy i will always love u
So sorry for your loss
Blessings in JESUS name
I'm so sorry about the loss of your husband, the toughest trial we go through in this life is losing people we love. But God is real, the soul is real, Heaven is real and when our alloted time in this world ends we ARE reunited with those who we love. How blessed you are that God has allowed your husband to visit you in your dreams, not everyone gets that.
I can remember hearing this song for the fist time on Rattle and Hum and playing it over and over and over. I still get goosebumps hearing it to this day 35 years later
Me too
The middle/late part with the ringing guitar always sends shivers down my spine. Breathtaking.
Me too! Beautiful song @@
Me too x
Only "Love is Blindness" hits harder
This evening I'm driving my crush to our first date, and I'm playing this song in the car. Wish me luck bois!
Great choice dude! This worked for me in my first date as well. She will love it! Hope you had an awesome first date 🤙🏻
@@andresreyes3916 well she actually complimented my musical taste based on this song but in the middle of our date she decided to let me know she has a boyfriend. I'm not expecting anything right now, I'll just let life take its normal course 🤝

For me this is a fantastic unrequited love song. The build up and final release of the guitar solo is perfect. For me it captures the disappointment, longing and sadness I've (a lot of us) felt when I've longed for connection with someone but it never happens.
Don't give up..you will find your soul mate when you least expect it..I did at 67 ..wishing you happiness and love..❤
Well said. Keep searching and you will find it.
I’ve never gotten that from this song. The complete opposite, actually. Maybe the video, perhaps, I hadn’t seen it before. But I’ve honestly never gotten any of that before from the lyrics/ sound alone. 💗
Though the video is misleading, Bono actually wrote this for his wife
Beautifully said. It's the *perfect* musical illustration of unrequited love. Even without the lyrics you would get the sense of what the song is about. The music alone tells a powerful story and you can't help but *feel* it with all your heart. It builds into such an overwhelming frenzy of emotion and then the music dies away into a feeling of yearning and dashed dreams. Anyone who has suffered through unrequited love will understand.
Awesome how the band just appears for a few seconds near the end, walking down the beach. This is not just a music video, but a short film. A timeless classic!
They also show up in the circus camp right before she slips off her nightgown, drinking by the campfire.
Bono and Adam Clayton also at 2:32
This Song is ........
" A Religious and or Mystical Experience "
One of the most underrated songs of u2.. It deserves lots more views, probably billions of views.
I was going to say the same thing. It is so moving.
Just because there's not millions of views DOES NOT MEAN it is an 'underrated ' song !!! FFS !!! Maybe 'underappreciated' in YOUR world.
Why is it underrated?
Agree. my favourite.
@@scoot88 Never has been.
When Bono sings “all the promises we break...” I lose it every time. Such simple, but strong lyrics. So sad, but beautiful too.
Me, too...
Can you imagine that someone called this"elevator music", in an unrelated video where someone thought "I still haven't found what I'm looking for" was from Cardi B...
Probably some moron who wasn't even alive back in the 80s 😄 😄 😄
@@ElaAusDemTal What?!…Elevator music?!…Cardi B?!…smh. Just makes me sad that this song hasn’t yet touched the hearts and minds of some of the younger generation.
You’re a man. You’re not supposed to cry.
Yup, me too. Just...guts me. No matter how many times I hear this, I have the same reaction.

Shot in glorious b/w and in homage to Fellini, this 6.5 minute clip does more to evoke human emotions than most 3-hr movies. For me, it's a testament of the human spirit in the name of courage in the pursuit of the impossible. I love the fact that the band makes a cameo. Bono's vocals and the Edge's guitar are pure magic. Brilliance and Perfection. Enough said.
1:40 When she looks at him and knows;
1:46, when the Strongman looks at his friend and immediately knows how lost his friend is in love and knows it will only bring pain to his friend;
I always was so grateful to the strong man for being his friend;
3:16 with the ring and that smile;
3:24 hopping in the Strongman's sidecar, meaning his buddy had his back on the trip;
3:47 That heartbreaking smile he shoots her;
4:01 Dashed;
4:50 ending the only way it could ever end.
6:00 Tossing the ring into the grave because his love died (or did he die);
6:03 The Strongman sees the ring and shares the pain with his friend and knows what a loss this is for his friend.
Amazing video. One of the all time greats.
Edge said she died however how? That's always bothered me
❤😢
😢
OMG, I'm criying!!! One of the most beautiful songs ever!!!!
I agree!
Un fuerte abrazo hermana
Isn't it just!!!
indeed
Me too..very touching
I get that the music is great, but did anyone see just how unbelievable the music video actually was? That was the _ultimate_ 1980s music video if I ever saw one. Fucking fantastic.
I wonder who the one die in video?
@@anitaafriani6176 I thinking about that too lol
El amor imposible❤
It is figurative. The little man buried his love for her to obscurity.
The sound of the orchestra at the end of this song is a true masterpiece.
Yeah, the orchestra makes it even more special & beautiful;.
Van Dyck Parks did the string arrangement which closes this masterwork.
❤😊
Nothing beats listening to U2 it really takes you back to a very happy place when the world was not so bad
In this case, early 1988
Amen, so true.
Partly because Reagan kept the country away from wars and brought us back from a recession
I was younger. Good times!
The world has always been "bad" depending on where you were or who you were or what color you were. You were ignorant about that as you were young. As they say- that´s bliss
One of the few music videos of the time that reached the level of "Art Film". The story line combined with the musical composition is simply breathtaking. & I love the enigmatic ending! Who died? It's a midget's coffin they're carrying, but he's at the funeral and she isn't. Call it what you like - this is art.
I have wondered who died for years, still no closer to working it out
The first time I heard this song, I cried. I then saw the video, and I wept even more. When my ex and I divorced, I listened to it too often, but it fit how I felt. I have never lost that love in my heart. No matter how old I become, this song and video still affect me deeply.
Oh my gosh same. It's been 4 years since we ended and it still makes my chest feel heavy
Start wild fires and fires 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😡😡
This is The Best U2 Song.
For Ever.
ALL I WANT IS YOU.
BONO,
And His Band,
THANK'S YOU.
Can’t wait. This is, without a doubt, one of the best love songs ever written. Definitely in my top 10 favorite U2 songs.
100%. Amazing how great songs hit completely differently at different times in your life and different times in the world.
@@valueinyou9931 That’s so true.
Yes it's gotta be
This music video evokes more emotions after it's 6 minutes than most films do in 2 hours.
Beautiful pieces of art working together as one.
I have the same feeling... and I bet everyone in here agrees
True
i cry everytime i play this, why do i put myself through this?
Search for the film The Million Dollar Hotel...written by Bono and soundtrack by U2.
....my. my true rocknroll will never die ! he. hey..
Rocknroll is here to stay!!
The main actor in this video has the eyes of an angel. He made me feel every bit of this.
That's Peter Dinklage from Game of Thrones.
@@botz77 No. That's a myth. The actor is an Italian named Paolo Risi. You can find the info on his imdb.
@@botz77it’s not him. Way before his time.
@@botz77😂 I thought it was him too, but it isn't. The actor's name is Paolo Risi.
Who died though? I thought it was him at first, until he was at the funeral.
This song should have closed out the Joshua Tree. It feels like it was recorded during those sessions. Such a timeless song.
one of the greatest love songs ever, by anyone.
Yes, it is!
This and Kathy’s Song
Yep
The bald dude with the mustache is the best in this video. Extremely loyal to his friend. That’s the vibe I received.
He acted really well. His few Seconds n minimal but perfect expression.
The acting in this silent movie is excellent.
This song is a realization of how painful it is when you want someone so badly . Love ❤️ unrequited I love the intensity in Bono’s voice when he sings at the end of the song “ALL I WANT IS YOU”
This song and the video (which are perfect both are perfect with one another), I cry so much. I have been on that end so many times of the little person....seeing him in love and getting hurt, has happened to ALL OF US. I also cry because it is SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SONG. And to think, he wrote this song for his wife!! I think that is what makes this song so much more beautiful...to write, sing, and dedicate a song to her is TRUE LOVE. I cannot imagine how she felt when she heard him singing it to her. I Believe those who listen to other genres, after hearing this song, I KNOW they would ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT....Especially if they saw the video. This song and video ca touch ALMOST ANYONE ANYWHERE.
If they asked me what the best thing about covid quarantine was, I'd say U2 uploading these legendary videos.
Quarantine has been over for more than a year
Badass. That's the spirit 🤘

Can I watch this video without crying? It seems I cannot, after all these years.
Absolutely beautiful song, love it. The solo truly does have a cathartic release to it and the guitar riff itself is very nostalgic. I will pass this song down to the next generation of teenagers forever. I love this song, sincerely, a British 13 year old.
Nice analysis there-It's a real winner of a song by U2 and combined with the video it's really impactive.
It's fucking beautiful.
Im 16 and I will help you
Always liked this song. But after seeing the video, realized that this is not just sound and vision, but truly art.
Music is Art.
Same, but actually realized after all these years watching the video it's actually a sad story...
Quite possibly one of the greatest and most emotional videos ever made. Breaks me every time she looks at him while she's with the other guy...
She's the best silent movie actress in this video. Very emotive.
You say you want
Diamonds on a ring of gold
You say you want
Your story to remain untold
But all the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you
You say you'll give me
A highway with no one on it
Treasure just to look upon it
All the riches in the night
You say you'll give me
Eyes in a moon of blindness
A river in a time of dryness
A harbor in the tempest
But all the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you
You say you want
Your love to work out right
To last with me through the night
You say you want
Diamonds on a ring of gold
Your story to remain untold
Your love not to grow cold
All the promises we break
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you
You all I want is
You all I want is
You all I want is
You
Rattle and Hum album.
It's the first song that I learned in English and by memory of U2...I speak spanish, I'm from Argentina...but when I was a little girl on My fourteens I guees, I was "singing" in English....all because of them...I just love The song and I ❤️ U2
Thanks!
tysm, sweetheart ❤️
Irony is that Bono's explanation of the lyrics is that the song is sung by the woman, responding to the man trying to do everything for her...when all she wants is him
You nailed that Cam
3:55 little guy makes his move against all odds. I think we've all been that character in some form or another at some point. It's why this parts hits me all the time
I agree with you; I've been him, too, desperately trying to connect with an unrequited Love who I can't understand at that time will never be mine.
And I also relate to the Woman who feels a tender love for him and doesn't want to hurt him; but when she's kind, she inadvertently gives him hope. She doesn't mean to be the villain. But they will never be together, because she desires to be with another who is more suitable.
It's a timeless Tragedy.
@@brettstingel5736 💙
The Edge’s guitar at starting at 3:46 coupled with Larry’s drumming is just sublime. It’s one of his best solos.
agree 100% -- super underrated
This has been one of my U2 faves for quite a while.
no surprise. this music captivates simple minds.
@@brerabbit4233 I like Simple Minds too. 😁
That guitar solo goes hard.
The arrangement on this track is phenomenal. Fantastic song. Edge's guitar solo at the end is awesome. Rattle and Hum period rulz. 👍
This song is haunting to the core. A masterpiece of music and video that match each other and sends chills down your spine. The solo by The Edge is magical. It has been an honour to go to 5 concerts and see U2 perform live.
Nailed it with the word haunting always felt they were tapping into some celtic pagan spiritual well with stuff like this
This song hurts so good
It's unfortunate that they don't make music like this nostalgic poem any more. This takes me back to those beautiful and wonderful moments of the simplicity of romance in life
That look she gives him at 1:38 is absolutely priceless. It broke my heart.
Right! Priceless
She is such a great silent movie actress here.
I know the lyrics are related about a man singing to a woman, but for me it's a little more personal. I've lost 2 children. My daughter died after a motor vehicle accident 10 years ago, and my son only 3 years ago to brain cancer. The line "All the promises we made from the cradle to the grave" just chokes me, but I have to let all out occasionally. My wife and I are doing Ok. Thankfully we have a world of music that can help evoke emptions both happy and sad.
I'm sorry for your loss,and I'm being empathetic...🙏
So sad 😢
My Best whises and emphaty my friend,a U2 fan greets ...😉👍
I’m so sorry for your losses. 💔
More than 20 years have passed, I dedicated this song to a girl who wouldn't love me back. It still gives me the shivers 🙂❤
I feel you! Hope you have moved on and found the love that is everywhere, you just have to open yourself to it ❤️
give yourself the love you wanted. it can be healing to. also been there.

@@Jeffro5564 ahaha you don't know me ☺
I can reply, brings back so many memories. I had the opportunity with such a fine gentleman in the 80s working in New York. He was from Ireland how I miss him and wonder.😢☘️💚
Not a big U2 fan, but I can't deny they're great. They particularly excel at " longing" types of songs. This is probably my favorite. The author probably knows very well what it's like not to get the person you admire.
This is a classic. U2 should be very proud to have the courage to make this.
Yes, you are right
Ever since U2 videos started getting the HD and 4K treatment a few months ago, this is the one I've been waiting for. Such an insanely overlooked gem from their back catalogue.
Me too. One of the most difficult to find U2 videos in a decent quality and now finally in HD. All I had was the Best of 1980 to 1990 VHS tape (but long time without a VCR) or low resolution uploads on TH-cam recorded off VH-1. And it's one of their best videos (in my opinion).
Bono doesn’t get the credit he deserves as a song writer.
The Edge guitar in this song is remarkable!! How he gets that sound is so awesome! Gives me chills everytime!!
And misty eyes, if you wanna know the truth…
Jimmy Page called The Edge "an acoustic architect." The perfect description of what he is able to do with that instrument.
It is not often you see a song and video complimenting each other so emotionally, so perfectly. Once you have seen it, you can't imagine one without the other. One of my favorite music videos of all time.
So who died? Can't figure it out lol
Totally agree, I grew up listening to the song and hearing it on the radio but I never knew there was this equally beautiful haunting video that went to it. The beauty of the internet, you can discover these sorts of things
Right now, I see the ring that the little person buys is going to be seen again at the very end of the video.
I'd been searching for this MV for a long time and I thought it was deleted for some reason. But now it finally is reuploaded. This is my U2 favorite song.

From Wikipedia:
Director Meiert Avis shot the promotional video in the town of Ostia, outside Rome on 18 April 1989.[4] Written by Barry Devlin, the video takes an unusual cinematic approach to the song, with U2 band members making only brief cameo appearances. The video tells the story of a dwarf played by Paolo Risi[5] who falls in love with a trapeze artist played by Paola Rinaldi, one of whom apparently dies towards the end. While there is disagreement amongst fans about exactly who has died, The Edge was quoted as saying it is the trapeze artist who dies.[6]
The video pays homage to Fellini, who was shooting his last movie, La voce della luna, only a few miles away from the U2 set, and also to Tod Browning's 1932 film Freaks.[7]
Thanks for posting this. I wondered about the ending. I have seen the movie freaks. I remember the man who lights a cigarette with no arms.
Yes the dwarf throws the ring in the grave and walks away heartbroken.
I’ve seen that movie and it was the very first thing I thought of when the story started to unfold.
Of course, the fact that those scenes showing him mourning near the end are interspersed with some shots of the trapeze artist apparently dreaming adds the extra layer of...maybe she's merely dreaming the whole sequence up, and that the dream is reflective of the "death" of her as a love interest for Risi's character!
@@MusicRunner82 Cool! A much more nuanced and imaginative take on the meaning of those scenes. I was much more literal in my interpretation and, after seeing the burial scene, assumed the “dreaming” shot was of her battling a fever.
I like your interpretation better. 🙂
Simply a love song, "all I want is you, all I need is you " you're my harbour in the tempest! As usual Bono took out the real meaning of LOVE!🌟❤
He really does💖
Written first by The God of Love:
Psalms 107:28-30 Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he bringeth them out of their distresses. :29 He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are still. :30 Then are they glad because they be quiet; so he bringeth them unto their desired harbor.
I had an old cassette tape with other songs yet most notabaly or memorably this one on it. It helped me get through my teenage years of Depression. That was many years ago now, God has set me free.
If you feel you need a mythical being to feel 'free', then you will never really be free. But I'm glad you survived your teenage years.
The most beautiful song that I've heard! Awesome U2!!
I love this song. The guitar starts out so gentle and controlled and descends into madness.
I have the same assessment.
And, really, its just like love.
My mum walked down the isle to this song, even though I wasn’t born for the event, I still feel incredibly connected to this song. Cherish this song forever 💓
Yep same here. Did your mum or other parent chose it? Just asking cus my dad was the U2 fan and it was his idea
My best friend from high school recently admitted all he ever wanted was me. He said he's loved me for 25 yrs
What a great song ❤️. The pain of having it all & then loose it 😢....
Finally! 16 years' worth of TH-cam I've been waiting for this
Hi, I have been looking everywhere 2 get the original, at long last we have it, none of that blurry video we have had for so long, even wrote 2 U2 and asked them 2 give us the original, no reply, I guess enough of us asked, in the end, love it!!!
My first love….over 30 years ago…made me a mix tape. This song was the first song and was her message to me that she loved me. I am now an old man. Married, solidly middle class, grown kids and a white picket fence.
Found out recently though mutual friends that she…my high school sweetheart just passed. Opioid overdosed. Had not spoken to her in decades, but cannot help to think the world is worse off with out her in it. Rest In Peace Aimee Rebecca Elizabethann McAleer.
U2 at their very best, When they get it right they are awesome
Thirty five years ago I thought the band was so cool. Now......I know they are
This song and "Stay" are my favorite ones. Also best videos, very cinematographic.
And with or without you.
Can't wait for the 4K Stay video.
Me too. This song, Stay, The Fly and Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me. The BBC live version of this song with an orchestra is just awesome!
Agree!
Is the actual official video for Stay even on TH-cam? I can never seem to find it.
Can’t wait to see the video.. The song is a masterpiece, blows me away every time...
Shot in Italy ❤️
Always!!!!
Watch thé live vidéo in concert with orchastraw.
Beautiful takes me deep in my soul ❤️

Love it breath it sing it ❤️🎶🎶🎶
I remember my older brother had bought Rattle & Hum (an uneven U2 album) when it was first released and we'd liked this song. Then the music video was released and it took the song to a *completely* different level! Why don't they make music videos like that anymore? It's a work of art
Probably the most beautiful video for a song ever made.
He said that he wont hurt me
He said that he want a beautiful family
He said that he will come to me and create a story together
He said me to try, not to let him go so quickly
But then all his promises are just made to be broken
And here I am, 5am in the morning, hearing this song and cry like a child
Bcz I dont ask much, I just need his presence
Yes, this song is a tear jerker. It is also the song about Bono and Allie deciding to get married.. (He wanted to give her the world and she told him that all she wanted was him)
Yes I am in the same. A future I saw so clearly. It existed, I know it did. Now, it's gone. All I wanted was him in my life.
@@mayflores5931 what would you suggest to a younger yourself? Like could you've done something to make that future be your present?
@@aaryanshrestha2890 if I could go back and tell my younger self anything, I would tell her to never settle, and shes worth it no matter what they say or how she gets treated.
@@mayflores5931 you can still tell your future self that! 😉💜
Thank you for finally allowing this to be on TH-cam. It is such a momentous video. Possibly the most momentous of all time. It means a lot to me.
I'm not a real big U2 fan but this is a bloody good song
This is one of my favourite U2 songs but they have let them self's down over the last couple of years with their politics
@stephenmcginley6705 in what way?
This song convinced me once that love was real and I cried believing it. Now I cry realizing that nothing is real.
Love is real; it may be fleeting or unrequited but when shared between two ppl it is like no other feeling. Truly a gift from God.
This song really encapsulates the passionate and tender feels of romantic desire. It’s so uplifting with steady movement, yet bittersweet. Utterly sublime to listen to. The climax is just perfect. Sums up the emotion with such power and beauty.
Well said
@@Erin.56Thank you ❤
Such a powerful song! Love seeing these videos remastered! At 50 years old now I still kept my favourite band U2 safe inside my heart and soul!

5:26 I nvr watched this whole video before. my heart is just shattered 💔
Once, people talked face to face listened to music or made music this is such a profound beautiful song, it's gypsy and raw. All I want is you. Phones kill all notion of these sentiments. Blocking,distracted from nature and reality. Harsh on our hearts for sure. 🌈❤️
@Jimmy Audrey merry Christmas 🎄 to you
@Jimmy Audrey thankyou that's nice. From Ireland then England then Ibiza then Valencia!!!
Yeah I remember back in the 80's when we didn't have TV or video games or electronics to distract us from sitting around and staring at each other.
U2 IS THE BEST BAND OF THIS PLANET.
