Great song, I loved this one, it is a very tortured song, elements of a man losing his faith, at odds w/ his reality, cynical, dark, disillusioned, jilted love, with sexual imagery, all the elements of tragedy but nicely put in a rock/pop song.
thanks for posting bono refrences dali in the same album on the track tryin to throw your arms around the world on achtung baby 1991 also check out equip.org
The artwork of Dali shows you places beyond your reality it is surreal. U2's Acrobat has the same affect; it makes you imagine other places. Combining the two is very powerful. as they complement each other very well. The words 'Nothing makes sense' complements Dali's work, the religious aspects of both help harmonize the images and the music as one. The alien and hostile sound of edges guitar goes well with the eerie and mysterious landscapes of Dali's world.

U R absolutely right! :) mistakenly put his Nude Descending in this video. It doesn't spoil the overall picture though.

es una exquisita combinación, una de las mejores canciones, a mi gusto, q tiene u2 y la majestuosidad de la obra de Dalí, simplemente SUBLIME!
