Beach Sequence - Passengers (U2/Eno)

[Keef8842]

Achingly beautiful. JM's visage is the perfect touch of melancholy.

[yallowrosa]

The inclusion of this song into the soundtrack of Antonioni's film was due to Wenders

[yallowrosa]

John Malchovich at Bar Bagno Jamaica of Lido di Volano (Ferrara) in 1995

[artfreak79]

perfect video perfect music for this sequence everything I imagined it would look like....

[stuartj1234]

a great album by a great band if you like this but are not familiar with passengers check out your blue room simply exquisite

[hairycub69]

If your like passengers then check out My life in the bush of ghosts by B Eno/D Byrne (1981) - both album take their time to grow on you...once they do ..thye never leave you. Listen to late at night or on a long journey - in a car or on headphones. I will be listening to both albums when I ma old and grey....beautiful music. Bearhug. Tx London UK

[tahoevic]

I agree all but how do you do it live?

Eno's Achilles Heel.

But sweet, Like Sam Barbers Adio for strings

[prateektaneja]

Beautiful. Makes you feel so sad and happy at the same time.

"Time.....Shoots on by."

[Alpebea1]

Intimo, meravigliosamente onirico

[djMacPhisto]

Magic track!!!!

[sundancer77]

whenever i am by the sea or even the ocean i always have this piece in mind. always. being by the sea equals this.

[argoninja2112]

if i hear music like this when i've died, i'll be sure i'm headed to the right place. follow it with Miss Sarajevo, and i'm a dishrag. undernoticed, underrated, unbeatable.

[tikidevil]

@argoninja2112 My thoughts exactly. This kind of music is universal, infinite and beautiful.

[HeatGuyJB]

I'm a lifelong U2 fan and I must say that this album is so awesome! This song along with Blue Room and Never Let Me Go really bounce around the vast emotions of a bleeding heart. Dim the lights and relax to a great album

[fortitude78]

@HeatGuyJB Well Never let me go isn't on the Passengers album - it's on the Million dollar hotel compilation - but I take your point :)

[osamentalmatico]

Porque el disco es interesante, y muy util para sonorizar, entre tantas otras cosas, la eventualidad de un corte de uñas de los pies.

(The Passengers: U2, Brian ENO, & some others)

[bonofoundgrace]

Just heard this masterpiece for the first time and I'm still recovering from it. I never did drugs and when I hear music like this, I wonder what the point would be. U2, in this song together with Brian Eno, can take me to any place or bring me into any mood. I can't describe the mood they brought me into this time, though... I only know they just changed it.

[Horsehockey105]

I just have to think of this music....... and I'm gone

[GSB876]

Paeesngers is a soundtrack for a movie never made .....

thats how Bono explained the project, some awesome pieces on there.

[1964go]

somewhere between Zooropa and Pop era 1995.

[DJTommyDaniels]

Incredible tune; it's a shame so many people - including and namingly U2 fans - have no idea about this project. Simply beautiful.

[UgoPiazzafan]

It's Bono playing the piano with a finger

(i'm not joking)

[spinnerjp]

this song and most of the passengers album is timeless,it took me a while to get into it as it was a big change for u2,but it is a real gem and i find myself listening to it more and more.

[cinemavirtualis]

This is one of the greatest sequences in any Antonioni film (which is saying alot) and its also one of the most hauntingly beautiful pieces of music that U2 ever created (which is also saying alot).  Passengers has always been underrated.

[misterberko]

I was going to leave a comment but see that "cinemavirtualis (6 months ago)" has already written what I wanted to say.

[Iberianwildwolf]

This album and the soundtrack of the "on million dollar hotel" are my favorites, but specially this one. It's breathtaking.

[WalshNo5]

Probably agree with you there Iberianwildwolf, although I did love all of their stuff before All That You Can't Leave Behind. Listened to Zooropa again tonight and have strangely always enjoyed that album !!

[Hewson60]

Where is it located?

[skarath]

Some good material in the Passenger album. Some cool vibes/grooves. Bono is relaxed and not overdoing it. I believe its all downhill for them after this Passenger albums.

"time - shoots on by..."

[babainowel]

This is fucking brilliant!!

No matter what the critics say, this is one of the best I've ever heard!

[vinsspirit]

This entire album is one of my U2/Brian Eno favorites. I couldn't care less what thw critics said about it. This is just brilliant chill music. Bought it on day one and I still listen to it to this day.

[tigerblack1968]

I love the music with this scene

[JamesVibe]

WOw, I have to see this movie "Beyond the Clouds"

I hope U2 makes another album like this

[maxsocial]

I've been admiring this song for a couple of years. but now along with this clip, it becomes something near to the perfection.

[subcin]

Beautiful song, beautifully done. This scene is a true wonder. 5 stars all the way.

[Mars325]

Very beautiful movie-

[Eiselberg]

better than WINGS OF DESIRE????

[U2005]

MUCH BETTER

[tanhaauser]

Great song from one of _the_ best movies I've ever seen. Certainly my favorite Antonioni and/or Wenders film.

[ToulacAxeHand]

Might go and see this movie, quite a nice scene, good camera angles and the mood provided by Eno and U2 is great.

[purpleoscar]

Thanks for this!

[mike11112e]
