one of the most beautiful song ever written. Gotta do also "Pride" and the triad of Joshua Tree album "With or without you", "Where the streets have non name" and "I still haven't found what I'm looking for"
yup.
They've already done "Where the Streets Have No Name"
@@btgiv6009 I don't find it on the channel. There are only two video reactions: Beautiful day and Sunday bloody sunday
Yes! Please! Amazing songs
yeah, With or Without You is awesome!
“All I Want Is You” and “Bad” are the two U2 songs that leave me in tears and back to being 22 years old and in unrequited love for the first time. Their ballads are utterly gorgeous.
Very well said, exactly that.
Totally agree, bad live from the Rattle and hum album is stunning!
Sooooo so good. All I Want it You; Bad; Running to a Standstill are soooo good
Absolutely, a lot better than the obvious.
Electrical Storm is another great “ballad” type song
Jay & Amber.... the most intriguing line in this song is "we GET to carry each other", which is infinitely more meaningful and heartfelt than "we GOT to carry each other" - "get" is privilege and "got" is nothing more than a task. honestly, you both represent and reflect what this song is truly about.
You say love is a temple, love a higher law
Love is a temple, love the higher law
You ask me to enter, but then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on to what you got
When all you got is hurt
To quote Bono " The song is a bit twisted, which is why I could figure out why people want it at their weddings. I tell them Are you mad? Its about splitting up"
It's not about hope, it's about resignation
Thanks for this insight, never noticed it like that, it gives the song even more meaning to enjoy :)
I love that too! Thank you for the insight… 🌟🌟🌟
@@stevendoran877 because of this I was sure that the first use was not “carry each other” but “harry each other” as in to annoy and stress someone. I’m wrong but I like the notion of duality in carry/harry.
No, that's the most cliché line in any song. It's a good message, but not intriguing.
THE MOST INTRIGUING LYRICS AND VERSE in the song is:
"LOVE is a temple
LOVE the higher law (_repeat 2x_)..."
There is no set of lyrics that perfectly suits the melody & Bono's stretched out notes & vocals as well as that unique verse alone.
Honestly, 'One' is the greatest song they ever wrote. The double meaning in how it kept them together as a band and about how we as people should come together and be as one has never been more important. A gorgeous song which stands the test of time.
The entire Joshua Tree album is unbelievable and soul stirring. Check out “With Or Without You”, “Where The Streets Have No Name”, “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For”, and “Bullet The Blue Sky”.
Such a great album.
*One* is from *Achtung Baby!* to be pedantic.
How 'bout "The Unforgettable Fire"?
All great recommendations!
'One' is from 'Achtung Baby' 1991
"Its too late, tonight, to drag the past out into the light." This song goes right through my heart like a knife...
U2 has many great songs, but “One” stands apart. It’s timeless; it would be a great song in any era.
“With or Without You” should be your next U2 reaction. Out of all their great songs, this one is my favorite.
The Edge is probably one of the best minimalist guitarists. What he plays has a point and meaning and there's no reason to swat a fly with a sledgehammer, so to speak. Check out "With or Without You" next. Heck, check out the whole Joshua Tree album. Cheers....
The Edge and David Gilmour of Pink Floyd being called "minimalists" has always made me laugh! They just use the notes that *need to be*, and kindly let the other notes rest until they're needed later on...
@@KozmikZootz Sounds like something a jazz aficionado would say - it's the notes they DON'T play, lol. Never thought of Gilmour as a minimalist, more as a perfectionist. Cheers...
Very intricate in his minimalism though
@@KozmikZootz Edge himself has said that if you take away all his effects, he's doing something very simple. He's just making all the right choices for a song, and yeah, it's simple. He just makes it sound like so much more. He talks about this in the documentary, It Might Get Loud.
This is, primarily, a breakup song. In fact, this was my divorce song back in 2011. After 23 years, we realized that we "ran a good company" together, but we were not the same. "Did I ask too much? More than a lot? Well you gave me nothin', now that's all I've got". "You say love is a temple... love the higher law. You asked me to enter, and then you made me crawl, and I can't be holding on to what you got... When all you got is hurt". What a song. What a song.
Well, kind of. It's about a gay son alienated from his father telling the father that he has AIDS.
@@Windupchronic it’s actually about the German reunification according to Bono.
@@avaairvine Then he's changed what it's about, because my info came from an interview he gave back when the album came out.
@@Windupchronic U2 are a Christian band so I doubt this is true
I found this quote and it is about splitting up. “The song is a bit twisted,” Bono explained in Neil McCormick’s U2 By U2, “which is why I could never figure out why people want it at their weddings. I have certainly met a hundred people who’ve had it at their weddings. I tell them, ‘Are you mad? It’s about splitting up!’” I never really listened to the lyrics just enjoyed the vibe.
U2 is a band that made a difference is my life, I have only seen them once live, but they are so incredible Bono, The Edge, Larry and Adam, thank you...
40 years now listening to U2. Now I know, when I, as a teen, noticed how long time Beatles. The Doors, Rolling Stones fans, etc., felt, following their favorite group during the many decades and listening to their old songs.
It happen to each Generation when it come to that
I'm not crying, you're crying!! I love this song so much!! U2 will always be one of my favorite bands!!
Edited to add: Zooropa, Stay (Faraway, So Close), Daddy's Gonna Pay For Your Crashed Car, Numb, All I Want Is You, Mysterious Ways, The Unforgettable Fire, Pride (In The Name Of Love), I Will Follow, The Sweetest Thing, Even Better Than The Real Thing, and Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, K*ll Me. Also Bono & Gavin Friday "In the Name of the Father"
ANDDDD "The Wanderer" U2 + Johnny Cash!!! 😎
🎶🎶🎶
Keep smiling! 💗1️⃣💗
ooh. forgot about In the Name of the Father. I need to put that on my playlist! Thanks for the reminder. I haven't heard that since the 90s.
Yes, thanks for recommending songs off the Zooropa album. Dirty Day is another good one off that album.
yes Zooropa BONO has the best rock voices with the greatest emotion and i love Th edge's signature guitar jangle they were my fave group in the mid 80's and saw them play live a couple times in their heyday. They were awesome
@@AzaleaLuna - Zooropa has seemingly been forgotten by many, but it’s still one of my favorite U2 albums. “Stay” and “Lemon” are some of my favorites from that set of songs.
So glad you finally got back to U2! Three songs in, and SO MANY more to go. I think you'd love "Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For", "Mysterious Ways", or maybe even their duet with the legendary B.B. King, "When Love Comes To Town". Also... any chance you can get back to some INXS? You need to hear "Need You Tonight", "Suicide Blonde", and "The One Thing". Another suggestion - you've done "One" by Metallica, and now "One" by U2.... can you do "One" by the Bee Gees? :)
Definitely gotta hit INXS again. Nobody does funky dance pop that is always original like they do. I Send A Message, Original Sin, Burn For You are some of my faves.
yes, INXS! Listen Like Thieves, Mediate, Beautiful Girl, Baby Don't Cry, Don't Change... lol, i might be a little biased because i love everything they did (when Michael was still alive).💖👍
Maybe they should just do “Rattle and Hum” on the movie channel. Two birds.
Bono's voice conveys emotion & longing in a way that few singers can match. Combined with the otherworldly guitar prowess of Edge and the amazing talent of the rest of the band make U2 legendary. A few more of their songs I'd suggest include "Pride (In the Name of Love)" (about Dr. King), "Where the Streets Have No Name", "With or Without You", "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For", "New Year's Day", "Bullet the Blue Sky", "Seconds", "Ordinary Love", "Bad", "I Will Follow", "Please", "Mysterious Ways", "The Unforgettable Fire", "Breathe", "Until the End of the World", "Desire", "When Love Comes to Town" (with BB King), "Drowning Man", "Sweetest Thing" & "Van Diemen's Land"'... just to name a few (there are so many to choose from).
and speaking of raspy voices - when are y'all gonna do some Dr. John?
"When Love Comes to Town" with B.B. King is 🔥 I also love the U2 and Bruce Springsteen's live version of "I still Haven't Found What I Am Looking For." Two really amazing singers at their best.
When Love Comes To Town is such an underrated gem. Both Edge's and BB's guitar work is sublime.
Bono, The Edge, Larry and Adam!! U2
One love.
One blood.
One life.
You’ve got to do what you should.
One life.
With each other,
Sisters, brothers.
Love the whole Rob Squad Family you guys have built and continue to build and grow. 🔥🤙
👍❣️👍❣️👍
One of the best songs ever. Please review. “New Years Day”, “With or Without You” and “Mysterious Ways”. Thanks for your reviews and discovering so much great music.
My all-time favorite song by U2. One of my all-time favorite songs overall.
I never get sick of this song. It is so well-written: the lyrics are poetic but also hit you right in the chest, Bono’s voice…it gives me chills every time. I think you guys would also like “With Or Without You.” They also re-did this song with Mary J. Blige and that version is pretty epic in its own right.
In the U2 concerts I’ve been to, Bono changes the line to “Have you come here to play Jesus to the lepers in your bed?” I mean….dang.
My favourite rock band, I’m glad to see you playing their music!
Mine too!
One of my very favorite U2 songs! If y’all haven’t done it, do “Where the Streets Have No Name “ or “I Still Haven’t Found what I’m Looking For.”
"Love is a temple, love the higher law.
You ask me to enter, but then you make me crawl" ...has to be one of the most beautiful lyrics of any rock song ever written.
This would be the perfect song to play for a woke person
@@sylvesterquast9906 What an odd and small person you must be.
@@hdmccart6735I hit to close to home for ya ? 😁
“You ask me to enter, then you make me crawl, and I can’t be holding on to what you got when all you got is hurt.”
"Pride (In the Name of Love)", *With Or Without You" and "All I Want Is You" are all slower songs by U2 that showcase Bono's voice. All three are songs that are so good, you get chills from listening.
Jay/Amber, you'll love their "Pride (In The Name Of Love)", "Two Hearts Beat As One" and "Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For"!!!
Two Hearts Beat As One and I Will Follow were back in the day U2! I also like Bullet The Blue Sky!
"Running to Stand Still" is one of their underrated gems
U2 is amazing and this song is so incredible! Bono has a voice that cannot be beat. The emotion in his voice and the lyrics are unmatched.
"Did you come here for forgiveness, did you come to raise the dead. Did you come to play Jesus... to the lepers in your head."
Such a great lyric.
If I recall, the song is derived from a meeting Bono had with a man dying of AIDS when it was in its early years who challenged the way people thought about / pitied / excluded HIV+ people. In that context, the lyrics take on a whole new dimension eg
“You act like you never had love, and you want me to go without”
And especially
“You say love is a temple, love a higher law.
You ask me to enter, but then you make me crawl
Well, I can’t be holding on to what you’ve got
When all you’ve got is hurt”
Heartbreaking, attitude-changing, life-shaping words for us at that time.
@@stuartmorgan1770 I heard it was about an AIDS victim who was dying and his father. I always pictured the young man in a hospital bed and his father finally coming to visit. I think Bono said it wasn't but it sure fits lyrically.
My younger brother died of AIDS and it was horrible watching him wasting away and dying. He wasn't rejected by family but his friends quit coming around, mostly out of fear. He was given contaminated blood after an accident and wasn't gay or a drug user, but there was a perception that all AIDS victims brought it on themselves.
@@thondomain You may be right about the father. I’m not sure - so long ago, I’d have to research it. I’m so sorry to hear about your brother. And yes, that experience of blame and rejection instead of tolerance and love was so prevalent. BTW there is a really excellent and heart-breaking UK TV drama series called “It’s a Sin” that explores the different reactions of different people to the gay community and AIDS victims in the UK when the disease first emerged It will challenge and break your heart but it is is soooooo good. With this lyric I guess the point was kind of - that is not how we treat people. with, say, cancer. And so “we’re one, but we’re not the same…” I so wish the world could almost go back to that time when we at least tried to listen to each other.
So right!
Bono the lyricist is SO often SO good. I think, though, he wrote some really awful-sounding poem during covid for some occasion. I cringed so hard reading it, lol!
Guys, you have GOT TO check out their song All I Want Is You from Rattle & Hum, it's not only the best thing they've ever done but it really is their DEFINITIVE ballad, it is a thing of heatbreaking beauty and it's just MAGNIFICENT.
The song is heavily based on the band members going through a tough time together and thinking about breaking up. This song came out of that difficult time and you can feel the pain in the words. In my opinion, one of the best songs...ever! ❤️🎸
Keep smiling 🤘 🙂
I know it's not their most popular song, but one of my favorite U2 songs is 'Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses.' After that, I'd have to say it's 'With or Without You.' (Hope your hand feels better soon Jay!)
Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses is my absolute FAVORITE U2 song, which is saying a LOT, cause they've got SOOOO many amazing songs!!!
I love that song! But I prefer the single version over the album version
Throw in Kite, which is a great song that no one knows.
Kite was one of my favourites from the All That You Can't Leave Behind album.
“You ask me to enter, but then you make me crawl, and I can’t be holding on to what you got when all you got is hurt”
Absolutely perfect writing.
Their performance of Bad at Live Aid is probably the greatest live performance ever.
Definitely one of them. I was transfixed watching it on MTV in my friend's living room.
That performance took them from a successful band to worldwide superstars.
Don't be ridiculous
Queen
I think Queen took the best performance ever that day, although U2 is my favorite band ever. I used to say back in 1982 to my friends, this will be the biggest band in the world one day... watch.
Yes! Please do more U2 -- maybe something from each of their albums? They have grown through the 80s, 90s, 2000s and beyond!
So happy you came back to more U2! My favorite is "Two Hearts Beat As One."
This is one of my favorite U2 songs. Bono is such a treasure. Such a good person.
They did a version of this song with Mary J Blige, and I completely love it. She sings with so much emotion, it really makes me feel the song even more.
That version was awful. Her caterwauling completely murdered the subtle beauties and heartbreak lurking within the song and its lyrics. Terrible.
I agree.
To add an extra comment, with a personal opinion.. the Duet Version with Mary J. Blidge is WAYYY better.
One of only a few songs.. I enjoy from this band.
But..I really appreciate this song's lyrics.
I recognize.. the Revised Version would not exist.. without the Original.
You must watch u2s live from slane castle version...marry j was decent but..
You're all wrong. The studio recording that ended up on Mary's album was horrible. However, the original live performance ft. Mary as a guest- the one that led to their official collaboration- was phenomenal. It was an occasional performance by the two done specially for the live Hurricane Katrina Relief telethon. It was truly like going to a gospel church and getting a religious experience. The entire gospel choir was made up of just one woman: Mary J. Blige. TH-cam search it. (It's 4min 43seconds)
U2's live version at Slane Castle is an incredibly close second, but nothing beats the original version on Achtung Baby!.
Most definitely..and I like it better..
I love U2. If you haven't already, "Sunday Bloody Sunday " is a great song.
They already did it....the Red Rocks version
Absolutely amazing band !! Legendary !
U2 is one of the most unfairly hated on bands. They're a GREAT band! Legendary, even. People hate U2 because they hear other people saying they hate U2. And those OTHER people who they're following.. hate U2 for that same reason. It's become hip to hate U2.
It's part of the international right wing conspiracy to discredit liberal or politically active bands
“One” is one of my top 5 U2 songs. The music beat is great but the lyrics are brilliant-“Did you come here for forgiveness? Did you come to raise the dead? Did you come here to play Jesus to the lepers in your head? Did I ask too much? More than a lot? You gave me nothing now it’s all I got.” Amazing lyrics. Love this song and love this band. I got to see them twice in concert and it was different than just seeing a fantastic live band performance. Seeing U2 back in their heyday was an “EXPERIENCE”! (My younger sister was such a huge fan that she saw them concert 16 times!)
I was 15 years old and managed to get tickets to the Joshua Tree tour show in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. I bunch of kids from my high rented a school bus to drive us and bring us home (more than half of us didn't have our licenses yet!). What an experience...first real concert, and on my own with friends from school! What a night, listening the crowd singing together after the encores ended. The echoes of thousands of voices, still gives me shivers of emotion. One of my favourite and heartbreaking sings by U2 is from Rattle and Hum; "All I want is You". Beautiful and heart rending at the same time, especially the music video.
I'm not a big U2 fan but Achtung Baby is one of my all-time favorite albums. It's fantastic from start to finish.
This has always been one of my favorite songs. I’d put it in the top 5 most beautiful rock songs of all time. Thank you for bringing this one to us!
"Pride (In The Name Of Love)" is a GREAT song. Very emotional as well.
So…. U2
Great band. Great! Great, band.
Many years ago, we had tickets to see them in Houston. It’s a 3 hour drive. Looooong story short- we were 2 hours in and realized that we didn’t have the tickets. Yikes!
Many phone calls, a rendezvous in Victoria (Texas), many thanks and Houston traffic- we get to the hotel, shower, dress, go! We get to the stadium, park, show tix, run up the ramp, grab a drink, find our section, and the lights go out. Whoop!!! We made it!!!!!
Such an iconic band! You guys picked a choice song! Much love!
This is a great ballad from U2. My suggestion for the next U2 song is "Desire." That's my favorite song of theirs.
I still remember the first time I heard that on the radio before the album was released. I still think of that moment every time I hear it
@@mdanam The first time I heard "Desire" was on my alarm clock radio when it woke me up. I remember thinking "That's a weird ring that keeps coming in during the chorus." 🙂
I told you guys!! Thank you so much. My favorite band by far.❤
U2's performance at Live Aid in 1985 gets overshadowed by Queen but to my it's equally as good and might even be better. I said to me so don't crucify me. The song Bad was so good in that concert. U2 is one of those bands who not only write great songs but they back it up on stage and put on an amazing show with how good they sound!
Oh I love the usual U2 sound, with The Edge creating that wonderful guitar delay sound using dotted 8ths . But I also love their ballads, like this masterpiece.
Thank you so much for listening to U2. They are fantastic and you are correct: it is about humanity....."we've got to carry each other".
I love that they totally got the song. The band was actually unimpressed that people played it as a wedding song. They felt people totally missed the point of the song. Excellent that you guys got it!
U2 "Bad" from Live Aid. They were already a big band but this performance launched them to superstardom status!
80s U2 is classic, but 90s U2 has some of my favorite songs.
Their most beautiful and spiritual song ever! U2 has an amazing library of music. Your next should be Red Hill Mining Town.
U2 has such a great catalog. You definitely need to check out their material from their Joshua Tree album. " I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For", "With or Without You", " Where The Streets Have No Name"
"I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" still speaks just as meaningfully to me as strongly as it did in 1987. That's powerful stuff!
"It's A Beautiful Day" is one of my favorite U2 songs, great to put on your workout playlist. Sending healing vibes to your hand!
Good taste ! Grammy wins for Song of the Year, Record of the Year & Best Rock Performance ......(2000).
"Bad" is one of U2s best. It is SO good! Bono's vocals will give you chills! That would be a great U2 reaction.
Magic to hear this outdoors in a stadium on a warm evening
Honestly, this entire album would be a great ‘full album’ to listen to. Not a clunker in the bunch. Great vid as usual! 😎👍🏼
Agreed! Amazing album. Not a bad song on it.
Absolutely!!! And when you think about the year it came out and how much competition there was in 1991, one of the greatest years for music ever-- Nevermind, Ten, Metallic's Black Album, Blood Sugar Sex Magic, Out of Time, Use Your Illusion, BadMotorFinger, Temple of the Dog, Into the Great Wide Open, Girlfriend, Gish, and so much more-- that just tells you how amazing Achtung Baby is to be able to stand out among so many other classics!!!
@@mamatay7 Excellent point
This is a great band. One of my favorite bands. You should listen to Mysterious Ways, Where the Streets have No Name and I Still haven't found what I'm looking for
There is a song, "Sometimes you can't make it on your own" Bono wrote when his father was dying. So meaningful and his vocal is tremendous. I highly recommend it!!
I love this song! Bono's voice and the lyrics just hit you right in the heart! U2 makes really thoughtful, beautiful music. ❤❤
U2 donated the proceeds from the single version of One to AIDS research. They recorded the song in Berlin and part of the inspiration was the unification of Germany, although the breakup of Edge's first marriage was also said to be an influence. It was not about Bono's own marriage; he and Ali Stewart celebrated their 40th anniversary this year.
Not a massive fan of U2 overall, but they have done some decent stuff over the years. "Bullet The Blue Sky" is definitely one to hear. Fantastic song.
"Decent." LOL One of the biggest bands of all time... some decent stuff...
@@robertreichle1 yes, some decent stuff. They're one of the most overrated bands of all time, but they have some decent songs.
@@jawbone78 You're in the minority when you include all generations.
@@robertreichle1 Agree. Guy's comical.
Yeah if you want a heavier, edgier Edge, lol. Bullet The Blue Sky & Wire from the Unforgettable Fire are great!
One of the most beautiful song ever written... I love it!
I'm SO HAPPY you reacted to this song, my absolute favorite from U2. And I'm so glad you realized that he's not necessarily talking about a romantic relationship between two people. Back in the 90s, the members of the band were going through some rough waters and they were contemplating breaking up. Bono sat down in the recording studio and sang this song. It re-energized them, and the rest is history. For more great U2, check out "Mysterious Ways" and "Angel of Harlem." Also "The Sweetest Thing" -- be sure to watch the official video! But honestly, you can't go wrong with any of their songs. They're an amazing band.
Angel of Harlem and Sweetest Thing are excellent choices. But if you want a fun video to watch, look for Where the Streets Have No Name where they play live in downtown LA, if you thought that U2 was hype, this video will show you they were the real deal. Walk On is another good song.
My favorite band since 1985. If you want to hear a great U2 song, you have to hear "Miracle Drug". It will leave you breathless.
Really respect the perspective you lend to this song Amber. Thanks to both of you!
Love U2!! Started listening to them since 1980, with Gloria and the start of MTV!! Pride, the unforgettable fire, I will follow!
As a lifelong fan, I love watching ppl discover U2 for the first time❤
OMG! This is one of my favorite songs. This song just makes me think of my wife. It’s not that she likes it, it’s not like it’s our song. But the imagery brings your loved ones to heart. Thanks J&A for doing this one tonight. (For you comic book fans, they used the lyrics in the wedding of Cyclops and Marvel Girl. Geek trivia.)
Their collaboration with Mary J. Blige on this song is 🔥
Yessssss...I said same , before I read comments!!3💕🙌
I like this song very much, but the version with Mary J. makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up, it is so good.
Agreed -- I think the duet with Mary J. Blige is better.
th-cam.com/video/ZpDQJnI4OhU/w-d-xo.html
Agree, definitely need to listen to that version!
@@traog It is definitely smooth & spiritual!!!! Love it! A great song, made even more fantastic with that colab with Mary J Blige!!🙌💕💗🙏💞🌞
Running to stand still - thats the one
This, track is among my favorite U2 songs along with "Discoteque", "Numb", and "Hold me, thrill me, kiss me, kill me". All are completely different styles.
Not a lot of bands stay relevant and famous for 40 years, but these guys have.
Seeing U2 in Dublin is a bucket list item for me. They and INXS are my favorite bands of all time.
For what it's worth: I don't blame you Janet, but if you haven't seen them in the last decade I'd like to warn you that they aren't what they used to be. I've seen them live several times over the years and I'd rather not anymore after the last concert I went to. Everything is off. Idk. Ever since that bike crash in NYC Bono hasn't been the same and the band altogether has lost their energy and spirit. They're still talented, but Bono's voice has dropped off significant and I think they're increasingly using backing tracks for both the vocals and instrumentals. Their stage performances are more gimmicky, and their newer music has taken a dive. Also, they've seemed to have betrayed all they stood for over the years and on stage they tell you their music is about things it was never about before. Then there are breaks in the performance when it gets to be about corporate sponsored charities, and they solicit participation from the audience on the spot. It's hollow and I felt duped for attending the concert. Just my two cents. If you do go, I wish you all the best. Visiting Ireland, whether Dublin or anywhere else, I think you'll have a great time. I highly recommend going to the pubs with live music, especially traditional Irish music. Also, if you're anywhere near the bridges at night in Dublin, keep your eye out for performances on the bridges or on either side of the river. Often there will be dance performances.
U2 and tom petty & the heartbreakers were the artists that changed my life. the impact of their music shaped me and took me into a world of emotion, intelligence, passion, history, energy, i could go on and on. i will always be grateful and love them forever ❤
I saw U2 in concert in the when this album was big they were fantastic live it was my birthday gift from my husband
I’m not a big fan of later U2, but the Joshua Tree album is absolutely a must listen to
You do realize this song is not from Joshua Tree, right?
@Wilt Chamberlain is the GOAT I remember TUF was an album I wore out in my first year of college in 1985!
U2!!!!
This song saved the band from disbanding. One is a out the struggles the band was going though at time, but I think it's also a universal message. My favorite album from U2 is The Joshua Tree, all the songs on that album are great.
The beauty of this song is in the slow build up throughout. Perfection.
Cool song! Try “Amie” by Pure Prairie League!!🤘🔥
You should look at (if there's such on youtube) "Bad" (live) by U2. It really shows Bono's power and just how energetic their shows are. Oh-0 Look it up as a Live Aid performance. Awesome song. :)
That Live Aid performance was fantastic. There were a bunch of incredible performances that day.
I hope you heal quickly. Ive been laid up from wiping out on my mountain bike in August and watching your Channel has been a bright spot. Thx!
Just love this song! So much meaning to me and Im sure to others. Thank you for the post and reaction Please stay safe and much love guys
Mary J. Blige does a fantastic cover/duet version of this song with U2!
makes this version irrelevant, Mary J is a whole different level.
It’s incredible!
@@K31011 absolutely disagree. The original of such a great song can never be irrelevant because of a cover or new version. The Mary J version is great but the original is better.
@@K31011 What utter rubbish. Blige screams all over it, demolishing the subtle beauty of the original.
@@amymikesparks2699 It really isn't.
U 2 IS DEFINITELY ONE OF THE GEMS OF BANDS THAT CAME OUT OF THE 1980S AND SURVIVED TO HAVE GREAT CAREERS!!
SUNDAY BLOODY SUNDAY IS A GREAT SONG NOT SURE IF THAT'S THE ONE YOU GUYS REACTED TO OR NOT I HAVEN'T LOOKED BACK BUT YOU REALLY CAN'T GO WRONG WITH ANY U 2 SONGS!!
I SAW THEM LIVE IN THE LATE '80S, PROBABLY AROUND '86, '87 I THINK, AND IT WAS GREAT! DOWN IN SOUTH FLORIDA AT ORANGE STADIUM!! AT THE TIME I HAD A WHITE WORK TRUCK WHICH I PAINTED IN BLACK PAINT U 2 ON THE ROOF BECAUSE THERE WAS A VIDEO OUT AT THE TIME ON MTV AND DURING THAT VIDEO THEY SHOWED AN AERIAL SHOT OF A VEHICLE THAT HAD U 2 PAINTED ON THE ROOF SO I WAS HOPING TO GET INTO ANOTHER MTV TH-cam VIDEO!!😁😁😁😁😎😎! WELL IT DIDN'T HAPPEN BUT WE HAD A BLAST ANYWAY!!!
I drove two U2 tours. Man oh live, could they draw in really big crowds. But their music is truly gorgeous and well crafted.
my favorite U2 song.. would play it on juke boxes in my home bars in the late 90s and the bar would come alive with good vibes..
Even better is One with Mary J Blige. Btw, why haven't you done MJB?
I have been hoping for the duet, too! They react to bands and singers they were not familiar with so I wonder if Mary J Blige is too well known by one or the other of "the Squad?"
I love U2 especially their work from the 70's and 80s. IMO this song and the album "Achtung Baby" are the pinnacle of their work. This album is phenomenal and, in my opinion, just as good if not better than "The Joshua Tree" which is another fantastic album. When "The Eagles" came out with "Hotel California" even they knew that they would never be able to produce anything near as good anymore. And so, I believe U2 either consciously or subconsciously set out to reinvent themselves and went in a direction that had them evolve to stay relevant. Understandable, but Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton, and Larry Mullin no longer have that raw energy that had a bit of punk, a bit of new wave, some rock, some pop and even some blues infused into their sound. Again, understandable I just wish I could have my cake and eat it too when it comes to music from the great U2.
The Fly and Ultraviolet are my favourites of the album. Achtung Baby doesn't have a bad song in it
Name 1 Song by U2 from the 70's?
@@JohnJohnson-mo4bn You got me, I thought "Boy" came out in late 79 but it was actually 80 and the songs I remember are "I Will Follow" and "Electric Company" Forgive my aging mind.
One of my favorite rock bands, and another great song, from their large music catalog.
Oh yesssss!!! Love U2!!! Love the colab with Mary J Blige also.. primo
I got to see them 2 nights in a row at sun devil stadium, a lifetime ago, ( i.e. before I ever birthed my grown ass children!). AMAZING!! SO MANY SONGS OF THEIR'S.. CHECK OUT EARLY
" I WILL FOLLOW "!!💞💕💗🙌🙌🙌
Also love their song " one tree hill " & of course all the popular ones..
. " Beautiful day ".. so many , many great songs. Elevate!!! Yessss
Their earlier stuff is much better IMHO. Give me anything off of the Joshua Tree or Rattle and Hum album and I'm happy. Oh, and the Unforgettable Fire as well.
Ain't even started yet just ready to love this. Thank you both for everything you do here.
I love being on this musical journey with you. This is another favorite. I also love the comments from other listeners. It reminds me of music I love and clues me in on music I may have missed.
U2 has some good songs "Sunday Bloody Sunday" and Great Collaborations .. U2 with BB King - "When Love comes to Town" ... is definitely one to check out.. also "Where the Streets have No Name" was a live video they tried to do a quiet video shoot o a rooftop.. and the word got it.. the video is a fun time
You have to do them live. I would highly recommend All I Want is you/Where the streets have no name Live at Slane Castle 2001. When Bono starts keening for his father in the transition between songs whose funeral he attended earlier that day is chilling.
My favourite U2 Song. Absolutely beautiful and mostly makes me cry
This is a fabulous song. Deep.
Not only is Bono full of talent, he is an incredible human being ❤
Bono only gives One Dollar to Africa and he pockets the other 99 dollars. He is not a nice person.
