  • one word. epic.

  • Very very good!

  • Just another day at the office for U2. Amazing.

  • It's not right, the translation of "i will sing, sing a new song"

  • @lucascopin good for you

  • anyone noticed that edge's is playing the bass and adam the guitar? ;)

    and i know why.. edge wrote the bass line for this song so he played the bass in their early shows and it had ended up in that way. how cool?!

  • @TakeMeToOchrasy actully adam had left the studio when the song was recorded and it was just the edge, buno and larry left recording it so edge played bass on it after laying down the guitar track.

  • @TJM862 No that isn't right, Edge is always playing the bass line in this song!

  • @TakeMeToOchrasy live yes, on the wikipideia page it has this to say The song was recorded right at the end of the recording sessions for War. Bassist Adam Clayton had already left the studio, and the three remaining band members decided they didn't have a good song to end the album.[2] Bono, The Edge, and Larry Mullen Jr. quickly recorded the song with The Edge switching off to both the electric and bass guitar. Bono called the song "40" as he based the lyrics on Psalm 40.

  • If you like this song, be sure to read Psalm 40, which this is based on!

  • jaja ... lo sorry.. me deje llevar por un  momento,pense que era el video de otro

  • simplesmente emocionante!

  • i'm singing this in my next pgsorm show,u2. gonna be fun

  • why do adam and edge switch instruments in this song?

  • dunno, they just always have. it does seem strange, though, since they don't do it that often. It's like, "why this song in particular?" Maybe they wrote it on opposite instruments, or something.

  • It's cause Edge has to do the backing vocals and the guitarist has to do a lot of feedback stuff that requires him messing around with sounds and that would mess with the microphones or something. I know next to nothing about guitars, but I know they do this cause of tech reasons, and that its just not random. I, too, like how Adam rocks the guitar. I wish for kicks they play Endless Deep with him on lead vocals.

  • actually its because during the recording sessions for the war album, this song was born while they were just messing around. adam wasn't in the room so edge started playing the bass.

  • Actually, the Edge wrote the bass line to this song, hence why he plays it at the end. When they play it live, Larry is last to leave because he was the first person to put the band together.

  • When they were recording the 'War' album, from which this is taken, by the time they came to record this song Adam had gone on a pre-arranged holiday. So Edge played the bass lines

  • k. When recording War, Larry left, i dont know why, maybe for a holiday. but anyway, they had to record one more song due to contract, and they hadnt written another, so Bono pulled out his Bible, and they recorded a version of Psalm 40, hence the name 40, and the edge recorded the guitar and bass parts, so i guess its just a nod to the edge??

  • 1st - Larry plays drums

    2nd - Edge plays bass because the guitar part has a bunch of effects on it, which would skrew up the vocals

  • dude its harder to play the bass and sing along then play guitar with and sing...

  • its not a matter of how hard it is, its a matter of the effects pedals (feedback, delay) on the guitar would mess with the mic

  • essa musica é a mais bonita do U2...puta q pariu..a gente sente uma coisa , tipo um arrepio...sem explica ção..

  • i'd love adam at the guitar!!

  • linda linda linda linda!

  • I have seen U2 4 times so far...but never with this song as the last...I hope I will...great video thank you :)
