I never liked U2 at all, but this song is excellent and the video transfixes me. I've watched it over and over since it was posted. Did U2 have anything to do with the video? That's not clear, but whoever did this did an amazing job. Synching the moments where singers seem to be singing what Bono is and the moments when guitar notes or drum hits in the video match the song. Where is Dylan, Neil Young, or Jeff Beck? Well, I suppose everyone is going to miss seeing someone they want to see...
Everything flies under the radar, but this video just encapsulated (is that a word?) rock music for the last 35 years.......love, jazz, blues, rap (a little), but come on....
this is a masterpiece, beautiful video, beautiful!!!!! this is music, this is art, this is love, this is peace, this is rock!!!! omg!! i just love it!!! how do you did to get all these music scenes, its like 70 years of music. i cant belive this, this video touched my heart!! am i crying? i cant belive it, U2 RULE!! bob marley rule!! The beatles rule!! the who rule!! jonny cash, jimi hendrix, RADIOhead, oh my god this is awesome!!!! man i love ur video
I remember when this song first came out, and I was only 14, I listened to it time after another trying to understand and feel the song. After a week of windows in the skies i had fallen in love with it, and years later, I still am.
These guys aren't human.I'm not selling man short but I really don't think It's humanly possible to achieve what they have and will! plain to see thier angels cleverly disgusing themselves as humans on earth sent by The Lord to bring about love and peace and a positive direction for all of humanity (thier music saves lives and inspires good in all)* What better platform through music can something so great be achieved? Remember music is a very powerful tool!

este video está inyectado de esperanza, buen rollo, de todo lo bueno y lo mejor... a mi me parece después de escucharlo que soy capaz de conseguir cualquier cosa que me proponga. qué grande es la música........!!!!!! y viva U2 por abrir ventanas en el cielo.....
Discordo totalmente de vc abigo o q acontece é que o U2 ainda n parou de tocar n ce enfiou nas drogas ou nao suicidou , ce vc pegar cds , musicas , shows historicos , rock mesmo o U2 bate todas as bandas isso é obvio ate por que eles tocam ate hoje agora veremos quando os caras morrerem e virarem lenda como essas bandas que voce citou com certeza sera lembrado mto mais que elas e eles n fizeram esse clip pq sao maiores q eles pq n sao so no seu pensamento eles fizeram em homenagem mesmo.
O que me encanta em U2 é isso: eles podem ter sucesso pra caralho, podem ser milionários no meio da música, mas mesmo assim não se deixam levar por essas coisas... tanto q nesse clipe é como se eles tivessem pagando pra ver o show dos Beatles, Elvis, Jimmy Hendrix, Led Zeppelin... pq eles sabem q esses artistas enriqueceram e ainda enriquecem o mundo da música mais do q eles mesmos...
not only the song but the video its a celebration of music and life! its about our history and our fellings, those that only can be moved by the sounds of music and truth.
After listening to those guys play, you start to love them, and when you see them in a video like this, somehow,you feel like they're alive, watching john, kurt, jimmy is just...special, at least for those who grew up with them.
