ive listened this song so many time, but i never bored with that!!!i have only 2 thumbs..............ill give 100 thumbs ive have it!!!this awesome song..............
This song is for all of us. I like Adam's nod toward the end. U2 are always seen as Bono and Edge, and Adam and Larry, but Adam's nod was a true emotional wink that he knows Paul's loss. It's nice. Kite is a beautiful song.
Dying. Who can understand what it is, why it happens and all the other pain and changed lives that come with it. This song is brilliant at somehow so softly and gently opening up our minds to be willing to at least thing about it. It takes some of the fear out of it and reassures us of the beauty of everlasting life. Brillant again.
This is what makes U2 a great band-they get us, and we get them. My dad was dying of cancer around the same time as Bono'sd Dad, and this song said it perfectly. I saw U2 in Providence 10/31/01, and Bono was crying as he sang this song ( I was in the 2nd row)-and so was I. I saw the shadow in my Da's eyes-but I knew it was not goodbye. This song reminds me of the night I said goodbye tio him-he was gone 2 days later. Great song, great poets, great band.
Sorry for your loss. As a person who lost loved ones you and your dad had something that many others did not. That is the chance to say good bye and to hug for the last time. I did not have it, nor my parents.
Very well said, my friend. I have had similar circumstances and this song means very much to me. I have seen U2 live many times but it was before Kite.....however, I will never forget the raw emotion I saw in SBS and Running to Stand Still in particular
well this song makes me feeel sad cause like when he saids i want u to know that u dont need me anymore it reminded me of my ex cause he found how love felt and now hes with his new love not been scareed of loving
Bono dedicated this song to his Dad ( Bob Hewson) who was at that time terminally ill, and later died during the London leg of the Elevation tour 2001, see 1:26 he shed tears, This song is deep, I hummed this song to my mum on her death bed before she died and it kills me each time I hear this song....
It is edited at the 4:06 mark for whatever reason. It's like the film goes back to the last note in the last bar of the song then skips back. This same video is out there without this jump as well.
This song is killing you when you have lost someone beloved.
