it seems like this video portrays U2's mutual respect for all other bands by piecing clips of other performers. But not only does it do that, but the vocals appear to sync with the videos.
the message I get from this song is that there is a message that every band is trying to express through their music: love.
"love left a window in the skies, and to love i rhapsodize."
this song is an appreciation of what all bands try to do. amazing...
That's such a cool video. I wish iTunes would sell it. Probably all of those damn estates couldn't agree on how big a piece of the pie they'd want for it.
at 3:49-51 is that the edge in the crowd or is that just some guy in a ski cap? anyway this is the greastest vid ever! u showed all my favorite musicians!
Sometimes I just put this on repeat it really means alot to me. Just got the ringtone for my phone too if u want it check it out at DownloadEveryTone . com #varialbes#
Their new album is good. IF you listen you can hear the old U2 sound in a few of the songs. Yes, their sound has changed through the years but they are still the best in the world. Their Joshua Tree album will forever be untouchable. Im seeing them in October. Cant waite!!!!
Im sorry their new album is a stinker in my opinion... god dam there last 2 albums were classsics then they release garbage pop-esque mixed with the bad parts of rattle and hum tortured with a hint of october... I hope they make up for it i tell you what!! why couldnt they made songs like this for the album....
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I was really hoping their new album would of stuck to this style of making songs... Their new album cant even compare to their last 2 masterpieces, or Achtung Baby, Joshua Tree or even Zooropa!!! The Edge said they made an album similar to ALL THAT YOU CANT LEAVE BEHIND but scrapped it and "broke new ground" with the new album, yeah they definetly broke something with the new album and its not a good thing.. FACK U U2 for releasing a crap filled album below par... still see ya on tour in VAN THO
Well, that's your opinion, I think their new album is a masterpiece. It's comparable to their last two. Its' definately different and that's what's different about U2.
I agree with both of you. I think No Line is a great album but I love "Window In The Skies" and when I heard they were working with Rick Rubin, I got pretty excited...but then they scrapped it and went with Eno and Lanois. So give and take, I guess...

But I'm sitting here with tears in my eyes after watching this again.
I love the motif of the growing roots. The lyrics are beautiful. The editing is nothing short of brilliant.
I think it's their best video ever and one of the best videos I've ever seen.
True art elevates the human spirit. Thank you U2 for lifting my spirit into the stratosphere for the past 25 years!
