For mine, it's the best ballad. It can mean so much, mean different things to anyone. I think it sounds more powerful when it's done acoustically on guitar and piano. The lyrics are so beautiful.
Green light, Seven Eleven You stop in for a pack of cigarettes You don't smoke, don't even want to Hey now, check your change Dressed up like a car crash Your wheels are turning but you're upside down You say when he hits you, you don't mind Because when he hurts you, you feel alive Is that what it is Red lights, gray morning You stumble out of a hole in the ground A vampire or a victim It depends on who's around You used to stay in to watch the adverts You could lip sync to the talk shows And if you look, you look through me And when you talk, you talk at me And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing If I could stay Then the night would give you up Stay and the day would keep its trust Stay and the night would be enough Faraway, so close Up with the static and the radio With satellite television You can go anywhere Miami, New Orleans London, Belfast and Berlin And if you listen I can't call And if you jump, you just might fall And if you shout, I'll only hear you If I could stay Then the night would give you up Stay then the day would keep its trust Stay with the demons you drowned Stay with the spirit I found Stay and the night would be enough Three o'clock in the morning It's quiet and there's no one around Just the bang and the clatter As an angel runs to ground Just the bang And the clatter As an angel Hits the ground
I love how they still manage to deliver a great performance of this song even when they're ageing, I hope they'll still keep it going on in the coming years.
As someone who has a been playing Guitar for 30 Years, do you have any idea how hard it is to make a 1980's era Les Paul Custom sound so Sexual?? The Edge is one of the Greatest Sonic Innovators of ALL TIME!!!!
By the looks of it, the LP Custom Edge has appears to have a volute. Which would signal it is a Norlin era LP Custom. So I guessing his is a 70’s LP Custom, either ‘74 or ‘75. More likely a ‘75 cos it looks like Grover tuners as opposed to the waffle backs and no witch hat knobs. However, I believe Gibson made a replica of his original LP Custom which was auctioned off a few years ago..
After years of playing this song only with guitars and voice, to hear it full band is very moving. Actually i never liked it acoustic, I love it full band!
@Barry Obama that entire show is one of the best shows-start to finish- I’ve ever heard. Just a stunning performance of the band at their creative peak
iiving through the 80s and 90s was for a fete for all of us! now its 2021 what will we do to keep commiuionisn from continuntioning. sorry for the ms im just so in love with our generation that we dont need a repeation in any form! stay close to the Loed hes been my siVOR LIFELONG!!
I’m stuck On this song Even though it’s partly wrong Didn’t know what that was I know talking for the show hosts That’s ok Saying the words I can not say Feels like open wounds Chased by a bunch of hounds It can be that resisting Almost always Denial never works Keeps the menu of self esteem Those fuckin words I’m trying I’m not crying
Larry has on something...what’s with his glasses...I dunno what do you think? It’s like your phrase was a micro sentence or the 3 phrase denial that extentuates your bashfulness. U-2 can be ultimately close company. It’s U-2 lmao. Get it
Did Larry have some problems with his left arm during this tour? He's not using it at all the first two thirds of the song as if he was sparing it from strain.
Would Edge’s fans abandon him if he didn’t wear that ski hat? We all know from that Pavarotti gig Years Ago that he’s bald. We knew it back when he had a pony tail sticking out of a cowboy hat. Come on, Edge, your band is all about painful honesty. Do you have a son?Model how a person can still be cool if they’re bald!
Dizzy Derwish Every band ever makes mistakes in concert sometimes. It’s a fact of life. If you actually get upset at a concert because the singer messed up a lyric, I feel genuinely sorry for you, man. Once again, lighten up.
tg72201 No, the answer is stay home & listen to the studio recording for ten times less the price! You’ve obviously never been to a Broadway show. When you pay THAT much money, you expect and do get a PERFECT experience.
Dizzy Derwish I expect to have fun, and with U2, I expect to have an emotional and transcendent experience, which I do even if bono flubs a line. Also I saw them and paid $75 for GA tickets which meant I was right close to the stage, pretty darn good deal if you ask me, and a load of fun.
At 2:57 Edge blows the chord!! Right after Bono goes “And when you talk, you talk at me-“ Edge didn’t know where he was in the song. Hasn’t he played it enough since 1990?? People are paying > US $200, so focus, Patty, FOCUS!
Dominic Dowling Spelling mistakes such as “there/their/they’re” are ignorable, but blowing the chord in an iconic song(Bono says “Stay” is their absolute best) now THAT is unacceptable.
@@DanielBrowne-dz7we sorry, I forgot idiots can't read long names... Or read at all Why don't you go and help your impeached little man? Surely he's done nothing wrong
One of the most underrated and compelling songs ever written. Still deeply powerful even today decades after it's written. Still gives me goose bumps
My favorite U2 song. Hits you when there’s a woman in your life you wish you could “stay” with instead of the piece of shit she’s with
Masterpiece of a song.
Agree. But why allways that acoustic shit. Play the album version live
For mine, it's the best ballad. It can mean so much, mean different things to anyone. I think it sounds more powerful when it's done acoustically on guitar and piano. The lyrics are so beautiful.
U2 you're the best band and i love you so much
My favorite u2 song , it was released when I was in HS . Bring back so much memories
One of the best songs ever written, ever played and ever been :)
BEST Live version! Love U2
Best concert ever
That’s just a fantastic song and a great performance. Don’t remember a full band performance of this song since it first came out.
There’s one on Zoo TV live in Sydney
They did full band during Zoo TV.
Green light, Seven Eleven
You stop in for a pack of cigarettes
You don't smoke, don't even want to
Hey now, check your change
Dressed up like a car crash
Your wheels are turning but you're upside down
You say when he hits you, you don't mind
Because when he hurts you, you feel alive
Is that what it is
Red lights, gray morning
You stumble out of a hole in the ground
A vampire or a victim
It depends on who's around
You used to stay in to watch the adverts
You could lip sync to the talk shows
And if you look, you look through me
And when you talk, you talk at me
And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing
If I could stay
Then the night would give you up
Stay and the day would keep its trust
Stay and the night would be enough
Faraway, so close
Up with the static and the radio
With satellite television
You can go anywhere
Miami, New Orleans
London, Belfast and Berlin
And if you listen I can't call
And if you jump, you just might fall
And if you shout, I'll only hear you
If I could stay
Then the night would give you up
Stay then the day would keep its trust
Stay with the demons you drowned
Stay with the spirit I found
Stay and the night would be enough
Three o'clock in the morning
It's quiet and there's no one around
Just the bang and the clatter
As an angel runs to ground
Just the bang
And the clatter
As an angel
Hits the ground
I love how they still manage to deliver a great performance of this song even when they're ageing, I hope they'll still keep it going on in the coming years.
Esse guitarrista me enlouquece😍Quequeisso Brasilllll?Amo❤
It's amazing how all the Instruments come together!

To be fair he makes a few mistakes. Like his style though brings something different.

More likely a ‘75 cos it looks like Grover tuners as opposed to the waffle backs and no witch hat knobs. However, I believe Gibson made a replica of his original LP Custom which was auctioned off a few years ago..
with the money he has in equipment, It's not that hard, dude. The Edge is a great guitar player himself, not for these things.
‘Sexual’?? Not getting much action, man?
@@rubbadubdub6543 at the time, not much Bro!🤣🤣
Love this song more each day..since 1992..
After years of playing this song only with guitars and voice, to hear it full band is very moving. Actually i never liked it acoustic, I love it full band!
Imo...this song far better acoustic.
I agree, U2 is my favourite band ever, but I personally don't like acoustic versions, full band it's waaaaaay better!
@Barry Obama thanks bro.

the best song of U2
It’s great but the best is running to stand still.
Very cool. Great song by the guys. Like that Adam and Larry played here too, not just Bono and Edge, (Which I like, but like this better. : )
I don't know. Maybe with a cleaner sounding guitar and Larry using brushes instead sticks.
Stay ♥

Amo essa música 😊
Tô aqui ,Mad in Brazil RJ Brasil
Nunca tinha ouvido essa música que não fosse acústica, achei que nunca ia ouvir com a banda completa.
Esperei muito pra.ouvir essa versão acustico
They look old but the performance is still there.
The real song starts at 2:16, beautiful
😇❤️
Did someone hit a sour note at 3:01? haha
yes kkk
Sounds like Edge hit a chord that was a half tone flat or something like that...
Checking i tunes every 4 in the afternoon
Como alguém dá deslike?
I’m stuck On this song
Even though it’s partly wrong
Didn’t know what that was
I know talking for the show hosts
That’s ok
Saying the words I can not say
Feels like open wounds
Chased by a bunch of hounds
It can be that resisting
Almost always
Denial never works
Keeps the menu of self esteem
Those fuckin words
I’m trying I’m not crying
Zoopla tour
Good gig never standing again
Don’t say things like that . Don’t say things like that and that . Don’t say things like that at all .
Larry has something with his glasses, do you think? It’s like a micro camera.
In this particular case, I'd say yes.

en el minuto 3:00 se equivoco el guitarrista
The way Bono sings out of tempo ruins everything
Would Edge’s fans abandon him if he didn’t wear that ski hat?
We all know from that Pavarotti gig Years Ago that he’s bald. We knew it back when he had a pony tail sticking out of a cowboy hat.
Come on, Edge, your band is all about painful honesty. Do you have a son?Model how a person can still be cool if they’re bald!
Maybe it's for warmth
Wyatt Koelsch Yes that’s possible. U2 only uses little LEDs for stage lights.
It’s pretty chilly up there.
How did Bono blow the lyric at 4:29?
Has he not done this song enough??
Or maybe... maybe FOCUS, Bono!
Musicians make mistakes, man. Lighten up.

If it’s these Paddies making shitloads for themselves, that’s a different set of expectations.
