admittedly pretentious. Leave it to the Irish. We are good at making jokes that are true. AND singing songs that are true, in between the jokes. Don't try it. If you ain't got the Irish gene. Blow all your money be bad at money, but like Bono, just do it. Everyday all day. Cause you MEAN it. Thanks brother.
As Ive gotten older- I've learned that other things should've been my moral compass, like parents, family, teachers, etc. I now appreciate how and why so many kids are led astray- b/c they weren't as lucky as me to chose an 'idol' like these 4 fellows. I am lucky that I chose to follow a group like u2. I thank them, all 4 of them- for remaining humble, true and just in their doings. Easy to go otherwise- and after all these years- I love them, truly, like the brother I never had.
Everyone has imperfections, such as Bono, and it's easy to talk about his imperfections to create a bad image of him. Bono made some mistakes, but they are so few that doens't affect the great human being he is.
I love this band. I don't love the fact that Bono turned from an angry young man into an establishment figure. Rock n roll pioneers of the 50's would be turning with some of the things he says on stage, not to mention the photo ops with George Bush. I don't believe Bono is nieve so there must be an large element of meglomania in it. They stopped being really creative as a rock n roll outfit after Zoo TV, it was shortly after that his actavisim took over - keeping him in the media spotlight.
@Tonyo1221 Get a clue. Why do you think he's getting photos with Bush? I'll enlighten you. It's because of what Bush did for AIDS/HIV victims in Africa. Far more than any previous president, or any following president for that matter. You may not agree with Bush on anything, but this is certainly one thing he got right, and doesn't get any credit for.
And I will disagree with you about Bono's megalomania, I think it (was) a Jesus complex, I think he lightened up in the '90's.
@daddyofisabel I agree, Bush did good with Africa but remember we elect leaders all over the world to do good things for our societies and those less well off in others. We shouldnt put them on any pedalstal and call them great for doing what we elect them for. They are greatly rewarded for the job they do on our behalf. We shouldn't lower our moral compass and call leaders great anytime they show a little humanity towards others.
is Bono living his life like Jesus come back to life?( sort of humuorous comment and a little bit of serious too)..seems like he is committed to the human race..to support, help build community spirit, and world peace.
"she will suffer the needle chill' definitley about a drug addict but like all u2 songs there meanings will differ tour to tour.
as bono states you dont really know the song or its meaning until playing it live. thats the beauty of u2 songs. they have so many meanings, but all important meanings.
Ainda me lembro quando ouvi falar do U2 pela primeira vez, era inicio de 1980. Me sinto um privilegiado por poder ter vivido a história da música em todos os seus enfoques e com tanta qualidade. É inimaginável. U2 é uma lenda viva.
Tattoo on my neck in honour of this song. How does anyone not love this band? Disregard politics if you like... I will always appreciate being raised on this. U2 is the best band ever
kinda subdued version. Running is such a beautiful song the dedication was nice. My fav perfomances of this song are the one's with edge on guitar his intro notes are so haunting I think those are from the Zootv tour.
Its so funny how u2 talk's about the endless possibilities when it comes to music. it seems thought that when they move on, everything thing in the book will have been done by them. they are the best
unreal band, and unreal that they have been at the top for so long, one bad album(pop) and even that had stay(faraway so close,staring at the sun and numb).....viva u2
And unreal that they made countless beautiful songs with meaningful lyrics that can stress the mood you're in or change it. Never listened to Pop, but I know Stay and Staring from registrations of their live shows and they are two of my favourite songs. Since 360 (what a live band!!), I'm regularly on You Tube searching for U2 music and I've become a bigger fan still. Incredible what gems there are, unknown to me until now. I'm very greatful that they are still around, making more amazing music.
to me this is the best perfomance i have seen u2 do...the passion and love bono sends with the prayer at the end of the song gives me goose bumps and i sincerly hope they play running to a standing on 150810 in horsens DK...i love this sound and care

Hello, unpleasant person. I am American and have known since i was 8 that Monaco is a principality and that they are not "royal". You should be careful how you speak - the American Grace Kelly has a very large family and we do use the internet."
stalking you??? You sent me a message to which I replied. Next time you write inform people you are bedridden and chronically ill and abstain yourself from sending messages when you do not agree with comments. So you started. Had I known you are sick I would have ignored you. Hope you get well.
Bono dedicates this to the "Brave men and women of the United States military" ...because in Iraq they truly are Running to Stand Stlll. God Bless America.
Its not the army`s, its the governments playing "their game"...
The troops out there are their pawns, I hold all of them in high regard for standing by what they are asked to to even if they don`t agree with it.....
Listen to the song and hope and pray they come home to their loved ones please......
So proud 2 B irish (EIRE). Really at the top of their game wen they made this song & album,love EVERYTHING about them. Seen them 4 times, everytime they just get better,love watching Adams expressions on stage(like is this really happining) U2 ARE THE BEST BAND IN THE WORLD. NORTHSIDERS RULE YEHWEH!
fuck you faggot i bet you dont have the balls to say that to their face and withstand the beat down your dumbass would get afterward...id like to see that happen you stupid motherfucker...u should fight for the taliban with your attitude...you stupid communist bastard go fuck che's dick u disgusting piece of garbae you dont know anything about America or its military so blow a dick...you should stay in britain so you dont get your ass kicked in the best country on the planet.death to che guevera
my family is in the military...but the whole military is not who were talking about..its the 'upper ranks' that couldn't care-less than to send peoples lives into the mess so that they get a bigger paycheck. and come on man...the only way to get your point across is to relax when you talk about that stuff. i love america... but any treatment that the government gives to our troops is pretty much shit (i know that from personal experience).
Yankeesftws you sound like a total idiot. You saying death to Che Guavara when the man is dead the C.I.A killed him in Bolivia. Just because i have a picture of Che does not make me a communist. Even if your military defeats the tailiban which you probally wont considering the russians tried and they army was twice the size,it will be at huge cost of life.
@SevenFiveSevenCrazy This tune is dedicated to friends and acquaintances of Bono and the rest of the U2 who had been addicted to drugs and who have completed their lives badly.That which Bono has said and he is dedicated to the brave soldiers of the USA is just to raise the atmosphere, he frankly do not think that, because this soldiers are actually only a tool in the hands of manipulators and mobsters
For those who don't know...this song is about heroin addiction. As beautiful as it is it is also painful. "She will suffer the needle chill, she is running to stand still". Listen to the lyrics and ask yourself what you are doing to change world. Do you scream without raising your voice??
