  • niesamowity text...można odpłynąć

  • red lettering would have shown up much better

  • Lélekfacsaró mesterek !

  • one word.... GREAT

  • ssssso beautiffull!!!!!!

  • Such a brilliant brilliant song, just so far ahead of all the young pretenders and the cynical critics who are out of breath trying to dismiss U2 as being no longer relevant, and whom I say to - suck this masterpiece with your last breath into your ear canals and DIE... ;).

  • @Kenmorfdublin Bono has said himself, great music is beyond even relevance.

  • If you have never played with fire till the fire started playing with you consider yourself lucky

  • @gonzobonzonofonzo Or hon, blessed to come out on the other side of hell!

  • no one can't beat IRISH..

  • I thinks this is probably one of U2's deepest songs and most meaningful lyrics they've ever written

  • I'm saddened by all the comments on this vid, most of them are missing the point and message of U2 and this song. Leave the baggage at the door and ignore the comments bar. Just relax and listen to the music. You may gleam something out of it. = )

  • Flavia, I remember you every single time I hear this song. Don't know even why I'm writing this... you've really made a permanent statement in my life. Thank you very much for crossing my path.

    Love you.

  • Me and my friends used to smoke a lot of weed listening to this music..

  • Muy buena rola de U2, para todos los que alguna vez perdimos la esperanza por las drogas o adicciones....Vámos! el cambio de conciencia esta cerca....Saludos desde Guatemala!

  • @Ficcionario tienez mucha razon =D

  • Nicely done, just too bad the words are hard to see with white on a light colored background.

  • the altar of the dark star the moment of surrender speeding on the subway through the stations of the cross pray for the ones you love suffering w/addiction this song assures me that there are people who have compasion for those of us who are struggling and that our familys havent given up completely thank u god for u2 in their life stories they have given me a little steam the fuel to push on thru this moment of doubt peace be with you all and forgive my spelling grammyG

  • @chefaaron100 im prayin someone understands i was weepin tryin to peice it together when i heard this on the album and liberated and free to show my emotion , shame, hope& prayer of surrender i would love to hear back from you folks so we can support ONE another

  • @chefaaron100 i agree ...surrendering to god .. we all have a story we all been on the dark side.. some still are . thru my own expierance prayer was the answer for me . when i threw in the bloody towel and wept as i asked god to remove my addictions life began to unfold. u2 has been such a lift in my life .. one .

  • white flag ------> surrender.....

  • a very addictive song

  • puta que pariu caralho vai toma nu cuuuuuuuuuu

    que massaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

  • I ♥ this song!

  • lollerz and blashbuck are quite possibly the biggest cunts of all time

  • best song u2 <3<3<3

  • esse videos é um dos melhores deles

  • one of the greatest moment of the u2 360 tour show. touching

  • I am big fan of U2 but i think that the song sounds very similar to 'Lost for words' of Pink Floyd....

  • Actually declared the 36th song of all time :)

  • sounds like something i would like to play at my funeral.

  • one two three klap klap

  • I have to listened to U2 for 30 years and they have brought up every emotion. I have to stay away for a while and dont go for the superhits. I love this song because it is not a popular hit and means something personal for me.Mellow and techinically brilliant. I am a great fan but even a stonger critic and to get this reaction makes them brilliant.

  • I want to dedicated this song to a friend call Gustavo Cerati :).

    Quiero dedicarle esta canción a un amigo que se llama Gustavo Cerati :)

    Si cada uno puede enviarle un mensaje de sanación, estaría bueno. Saludos

  • thumbs if u saw them last night in pittsburgh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • This is one of the most awesome songs to play and sing.

    Check out my cover by searching for "moment of surrender cover by patrik".

  • <333333333333 U2!!!!!:DDDDDDDDDDD<3333333333­3333

  • 11 people refused to surrender.

  • <3333333333333333333 U2!!!!!!!!!!:DDDDDDDDD<3333333­3333333333

  • This song doesnt deserve to be called the 160th best song of all time by Rolling Stone. Let's be honest people, the only reason is was is because its U2! Its An Average song...ehhh i give it a 7. (:

  • @LyricsAndMusique totally agree

  • seeing them tomorrow! cant fcking wait

  • gonna see them in st louis on the 17th, so fucking excited.

  • When they say, "This song came together in one take," they really mean, "We took Your Blue Room, and All My Life, and made them good in one take."

  • i cried when they played this at both Montreal Shows! what an amazing two night!:') love you U2!<3

  • i love this song awesome

  • Ten people wouldn't know a good song if it bit them in the ass.

  • i know the black holes....

  • This song is so awesome, yet so many ageist naysayers try to write U2 off as has-beens, this is proof positive that U2 are still experimental cutting-edge innovators with a peerless pedigree that the likes of Coldplay still follow around like mongrel dogs sniffing for inspiration.

  • @Kenmorfdublin I'd just like to point out that producer Brian Eno is behind a lot of the experimental side of U2. It's no coincidence that he also works with Coldplay. Maybe it's Brian Eno's influence on both bands that has drawn your conclusion :)

  • @jimmy54o Eno only produced one Coldplay album if I'm not mistaken at the time of typing, so I think it's more a case of Coldplay following U2 VIA Eno around for inspiration then perhaps.

    Chris Martin is a self confessed huge U2 fan since he was a kid, and they've been called the best U2 tribute band in the world, but I think that's unfair, some of their music is truly brilliant, unique and inspiring in it's own right.

  • The ultimate u2 song.

  • Noi eravamo a malapena coscienti

    Due anime troppo furbe

    Per restare nel regno della certezza

    Persino nel giorno del nostro matrimonio

    Noi ci incendiammo

    Una ragazza non potrebbe negarla

    Non lo è se io credo nell’amore

    Ma se l’amore crede in me

    Oh, credi in me

  • u2 today..

  • Watched their Glastonbury performance last night and really enjoyed it. They've still got it, nice one U2!

  • I've been listening to U2 since before I was born (I'm 16 now) and I honestly can't imagine where I would be now if it wasn't for them.

  • This song has moved me to tears...RIP Clarence Clemons.

  • R.I.P. Clarence Clemons. Thumbs up if you know why i put this comment here.

  • @Blashbuck who's he?

  • @moviehypno23 he was the saxaphone player in bruce springsteen's band. they dedicate this song to him every night they perform.

  • @Blashbuck why did u put this comment here?

  • @Blashbuck MIAMIIIIIIIIIIII

  • @Blashbuck Fuck off! You're using a guys death for attention seeking and making yourself seem superior. You are so pathetic, seriously!

  • @lollerz16

    calm down bro.

    also, if you're really foolish enough to react like that to my comment, go ahead and read the top rated comments to just about any coldplay song. you'll see there's some definite raging and crying for you to do there.

    in the meantime, calm yoself.

  • @Blashbuck Btw, this song is horribly overrated. I just hate it when people like you whore for thumbs in the comments. Do you have nothing going on in your life? Kinda sad.

  • @lollerz16

    Wait...you don't like this song, but you'll go to the youtube video a cry to some guy about his top rated comment. Explain that please?

    Also, do you know why i put that comment there?

  • @Blashbuck They performed this song in memory of him. It's pretty obvious. I moan because I'm tired of people like you attention seeking over the internet on shite music on youtube. Please, just stop. You're an irritation to anyone with intelligence.

  • @lollerz16

    I'm laughing because you assume you know more about this than i do. You don't. You're just begging for attention by trolling on a song you say is crap. You still haven't explained why you came to this page in the first place.

    Calm down, and go live your life. You can't win this.

  • @Blashbuck I came here because I saw it on the Rolling Stone 500 list and I played it to see if it had improved since last time I heard it. It's still boring pish. If this was released by any other band, people would say it was crap, overly long and mundane. I'm begging for attention? Haha, seriously, go do something with your life. Why don't you beg for thumbs up from passers by? I bet you would love that.

  • @lollerz16

    ok. obviously, you're not getting a thing i'm saying. have fun making up lies from comments near the top of the page and trolling for your own amusement. I'll go do something remotely useful.

  • @Blashbuck You go ahead and do that. By useful, please tell me that means not being an attention whore? We can only hope. So long, prick.

  • @lollerz16

    i like how all of your replies are nothing but "NO U" responses. And find out for yourself. we all know you need that information asap. why don't you be useful and tell me why you haven't seen all the other millions of comments everywhere on youtube that are all seeking thumbs up?

  • @Blashbuck Um...this is awkward. My last message was intended for you not to reply too. I'm bored of you. Can't you see that? Now please, go to school or something. Contribute to society. Become a doctor. Just do me a favour and when you successfully diagnose someone, don't ask for their thumbs up. It's inappropriate rather like what you did in this video. Goodbye and good luck in your recovery. x

  • @lollerz16

    you're not good at answering questions. why don't you do YOURself a favor and calm down before your next response. Everyone asks for thumbs up dude. sorry, it's true, and if you haven't noticed, then you're way behind. i don't care if you respond or not, i just want you to know that.

  • @Blashbuck Have to get the last word in bro? Kinda sad.

  • @lollerz16

    holy crap.

    look who's talking.

    really funny.

  • @lollerz16

    good for you

  • @Blashbuck Pathetic. I've muted you. Goodbye attention whore! x

  • @lollerz16

    this just keeps getting better and better. you moved the conversation away from what it was supposed to be, plus you said you were "bored of me" like 3 comments ago. guess not. you really do care about me don't you?

  • @lollerz16

    i think i win. sorry man.

  • @Blashbuck idk, actually... but I'm guessing this song is about him.

  • this piece reaks of ENO

  • La mejor canción que he oído en los ultimos años, sin duda.

  • Simplemente una gran Cancion!!

  • I saw them performing last Saturday. It was unforgettable!

  • Pro shit

  • beautiful song

  • Mucho sentimiento, me enkanta cuando Bono la interpreta.

  • The black holes and dark star may symbolize the bad situations our bad choices led us into. Once we hit rock bottom, there is a part us desperately wanting to fight our way back to the way things used to be, when life was fine and dandy. Sadly, scars become deeply rooted in our psyche. And there is no way out...unless we actually let Christ, the Logos and full embodiment of God, restore us. The moment of surrender before God's throne is the freedom we are all yearning for. "

  • 3:23 - Amazing! I love the "yearns" The lyrics are beautiful

  • This is in my top ten favorite U2 songs; next to "Bad," it's their most underrated tune. To me, this song is more tragic than "One" or "With Or Without You."

  • i want to get married to this song...while coming down the aisle. raw, emotional, real, spiritual, deep. 'nuff said. perfect.

  • @stromssa I like your visual communication of this song. It`s not often I see somone interpret texts as precisley as you do here. This description indicates the group`s values and concern for other people as well.. U2 has been my number one ..for years...but this album has a touch of something special...Oh yes...It sure is Magnificent.

  • I don't just like this...I love this!

  • bad !!

  • eu adorei a homenagens que ele fizeram no rio de janeiro para as crianças que foram mortas

    homenagem foi linda com essa musica !!!!!

  • U2---''MOMENT OF SURRENDER''

  • i played with the fire til the fire played with me...

  • vi amo

  • It`s a really good song, but I`ve heard better.

  • Every eye looking every other way, glancing down so the pain would stop

  • vision over visibility!!! :)

  • You could drown in this song

  • 8 people did not play with the fire

    

  • Rolling Stone declared this the 166th greatest song of all time.

  • @TERRIBLEPRODUCTIONSS and number 1 of 2009

  • @TERRIBLEPRODUCTIONSS Hahaha i was just reading that list. That is brought me here.

  • @TERRIBLEPRODUCTIONSS 160th :)

  • @TERRIBLEPRODUCTIONSS

    But Beyonce's "Crazy in Love" is declared the 118th greatest song of all time.

    Your argument is invalid.

  • i could be wrong but i feel like this song is vague reference to one surrendering to Christ, repentance and his restoration to sanity.

  • Thank you Bono, for dedicating this great song to our beloved Gustavo Cerati...I'm sure He can hear you in his sleep.

  • The longevity of U2 is just outstanding. My dad's followed them since the 1980s, and I've been a fan since the early 2000s. They've explored so many genres, excelled in so many ways, but underneath it all they're true artists and masters of their craft.

    This is another classic that shows just how U2 can bridge decades and generations without ever losing sight of themselves.

    As always, kudos to the masters.

  • we're gonna be in sao paulo next week! yey!

  • The best song off the album for sure..LOVE, love it!!

  • DLA ICH MUZYKI I TWÓRCZOŚCI WARTO ŻYĆ BYĆ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I've been in every dark hole....at the alter of the dark star. Who writes stuff like this anymore? This is a true classic that didn't get any airplay because of the lenght of the song. FM radio sucks now because all they want is 2 1/2 minute crap pop songs on it. Back in the day WBCN in Boston would have dedicated a full night to play this album. I miss the old days when music was something you listened to and not some crap promoted on MTV. Of course I bought the CD. :o)

  • From the 4th masterpice.....

    1) Joshua Tree

    2)Achtung baby

    3)All you cant leave behind

    4)No Line Horizon

  • i could listen this song 4653475548745384570 times more without getting bored

  • Simply brilliant.

  • altyd,the,number,one,of,music,­voor,maud,en,hans,hony,great,s­ong,kiss,you,

  • altyd,the,number,one,of,music,­voor,maud,en,hans

  • U2 never ceases to amaze me. long live U2!

  • thrilling song

  • Great verses, average chorus....some weak lyrics. Disappointing album.

  • @arniemazmax Those verses are powerful. Some of Bono's singing reminds me of Jon Crosby's. Funny, 'cause it's always been the other way around.

  • @arniemazmax lmao!!! You are a fucking moron!!!!!

  • @bugmusk6 Thank you by the way you express yourself that's a compliment.

  • I tied myself with wire To let the horses run free Playing with the fire Until the fire played with me The stone was semi precious We were barely conscious Two souls too smart to be In the realm of certainty Even on our wedding day We set ourselves on fire A girl could not deny her Its not if I believe in love If love believes in me Oh believe in me At the moment of surrender I'm falling to my knees I did not notice the passers by And they did not notice me
  • masterpiece...
