U2 - Where The Streets Have No Name (Live @ Cannes)

[lawstruk]

LADIES N GENTLEMEN THIS SONG IS DEDICATED TO MY FAV CRICKETER sACHIN TENDULKAR THE BOMBAY BOMBER AS IT IS HIS ALL TIME FAVOURITE SONG

[Gordor68]

bono's voice seems worn out from singing for 30 plus years. Listen to him sing from the 80's and 90's and compared to now.... a big difference.

[TimStatic]

good lord this is the best and greatest song EVER

[FourEpicPeople]

bono looked weird in 2007

[awezman]

This is the only time you'll ever see the keyboard player on stage with the band ever.

[TrollkarlenJakob]

@awezman Thats not the keyboardplayer. This man is Sam O´sullivan and he is the bands crew cheif and Larrys drum tech, he is standing at a small mixingtable, not a keyboard. The name of the man who is playing U2s keyboard-backgrounds is Terry Lawless :)

[blulicious2]

One of my top 10 favorite U2 songs

[jpjames1]

I like it sounds good to me

[ajaxrulzz]

Doesn't sounds the same ;)

Look at the difference between Magnificent on the 'magenificent guitar'' (don't know the name) and on the Les Paul.(davind letterman were edge gave the les paul awway)

[roncesvalless]

1:21 que refelejos de edge ,casi se la pega jajaja

[LinkinParkPRSCE24me]

bono's voice sounded weird, something about this vid doesn't sound right hah

[imtyrone]

His voice was in bad shape at that time. But now, it sounds really great.. :D

[TheAmalgamut]

Can you turn on the "High Quality" button on?

[arielsiko]

gooo very very good

[delacerdaa]

doesn`t bono look like robin williams LOL

[Hatekrew1987]

he sounds like him over here too haha

[fvs182]

YES!

[19719063]

right song on wrong place.

[mark2twenty2]

lol see edge almost get hit by the camera at the start!

awesome as always u2!

[Holter62113]

Bono is a little bit tired

look like john lennon

great song

great band

great musician

great career

that's U2

[delacerdaa]

@Holter62113

Bono looks like the comedian Robin Williams....nano nano LOL

[TheGreatGizzo]

amazing performance!!!

[Elobonovox]

<3 <3 <3 ... no line on the horizon... 2009 ...

[Franckdatankpart2]

wtf, adam isnt even playing his bass in the intro

[joshua0112]

He never has. They use bass pedals at that point. They always have.

Do your research before posting next time.

[americanpitbull04]

lol u are right hahahahaha

[bocajrthug106]

lol who ever saiod this performance was bad...Jaja, ok buddy! This is probably one of their most unique performances! 5 Stars!!!

U2 for LIFE!

[thebonodrums]

the reason it sounds right is all the instruments were recorded at the 2002 super bowl performance. The voice is the only thing thats live.

[charley5054]

Now, that is one stupid comment.

[Logitec2k4]

For him to say that they aint playing live, come on, you can hear it in larrys drumming...

[askdlashdhsak123]

Dude if you get your facts right, this version is standard tuning, while Superebowl is 1/2 step down...

Can't be recorded

[thebonodrums]

that can be fixed VERY easily...terry lawless is back on there on the board. a recorded performance can easily be tuned down or up. It is WELL documented that this WAS NOT live except for his voice. Their is NO WAY a les paul can sound like a strat.

[ZooBaby94]

Indeed it was. It was loud as hell there, so nobody can notice the difference. Same with the guitars, Streets couldn't sound like that on a LP. As for the rest of you guys, get YOUR facts strait lol

[thebonodrums]

wait a minute you ARE on u2start lol sorry Nick i though i recognized that picture lol

[ZooBaby94]

Indeed I am. I knew that you were right, and saw that you might have needed some backing up, so........ :thumbsup:

[charley5054]

This Les Paul is not even close to sounding like a Strat, it is live and now please STFO, listn to a real Vertigo tour live and you'll notice the difference

[thebonodrums]

fanboys lol ok

[rademr]

horrible version, sorry.....

[eddy621]

It sounds great, but there's a reason why Edge uses a Strat for this.

[bap1093]

Yeah I agree; I like the sound of his strat better. More shimmery

[imtyrone]

If u look very close, u can clearly see that it isn't U2's gear..

[eddy621]

All he really needs for a small performance like this is the AC30 and a delay, which he has. It would be a waste to bring everything.

[U2kie]

I disagree. Unless you are using some kind of strat sim, a genuine strat is pretty much a requirement for this song's sound. But Edge made it work alright in here, but it's certainly much different.

[BigAlWright]

wow thats weird the edge looked like he was using a Les Paul in this. and the organ in the intro was blah

[BassLedzepU2]

yeah it was a special edition les paul, made for his Music Rising fund. I beleve you can buy it.

[gahansly]

de l'autre coté du golf, et je l'ai raté, honte sur moi :(

[forzaFcu]

hahaha good one, looks a bit yeah :D. sounds good, great version.

[U2jr]

i was there!:)

[pedneault]

Criss Bono parle plus francais que Koivu

[lolxx69]

Bono parle tres bien francais et il a une maison a Montréal.

[Florian5]

Il a surtout une maison sur la cote d'azur a Eze ;)

[glasgow2048]

brillant .the best

[dubaiedge]

they are ridiculously great

love how he snuck in all you need is love

[laurent0669]

c pa un live débile,il a joué 2 music pr faire plaisir aux persone ki ont atendu 10h pr le voir,cété pa préparé,et si tu y avé été,toré pa di pareil

[CynKing8]

I love Bono...but this look always reminds me of Robin Williams/Elmer Fudd

[aaronwolfson]

What an amazing red carpet!

Viva la France!

[pierolbedo]

ce live est desesperant... le son est mal reglé et il n'y a aucune ambiance !

[ztvbono]

what did adam say to dallas at the end

[ANEMYLLAB]

Bono is revered in Ireland,by the way, as an example of lad from nowhere turned good.

ONLY ASSHOLES envy the bands success.

THEY are the F********** EEGITSS!

[anitamcgahern]

Learn how to spell wank stain!!!!!!!!!!

[ANEMYLLAB]

Great!

People dressed in black tie clapping hands! lol

U2 are feckin brilliant.Unlike most bands,they've a great team working for them.

[duralipay]

give the politics a rest? bono has to be one of the greatest musicians alive because he uses his position of respect in a way that benefits the world instead of investing it in sports cars and luxury homes. sure he might be rich but he invests back into the movement against global poverty. hes one of the greatest men of our time. but thats just my opinion

[anitamcgahern]

That's funny, what about the fact that he wants the Irish government to hit the citizens of Ireland with extra taxes to aid third world relief while at the same time he and his band members have been caught sheltering a lot of their income in foreign countries such as Holland in order to avoid paying taxes in Ireland. In Ireland he is commonly referred to as a Fu***ing eejit!!!!!and has been for years.

[ToulacAxeHand]

This was during the early years, and was a decision made by the manager Paul McGuiness to get the band off to a good start.

If you were in U2's position, I'd suspect you'd do the same.

[fifamanutd1234]

Thats why everyone in Ireland loves him

[yourdestiny]

i love u2 and this song but i don't like them playing it at cannes, somehow streets doesn't belong there, imo. bono looks good tho

[1337Hansson1337]

almost looks like he is hailing at 04:39-04:42

[morvwhitey]

give the polotics a fucking rest bono, your band is unbelievable but less of the talking

[franckdatank]

no politics here, he's talking bout sleeping on the beach

[SashaDaae]

Jumping to conclusions morvwhitey are we?

[webvideofan]

Wow, how many times are they almost gonna hit Edge in the head with that boom? LOL.

[rudybay]

its terry playing the keyboards, he played onstage during various shows in the european leg in the vertigo tour, terry lawless, dallas is also there helpin edge on the rig, dallas is the man, he gave me a pick during a vertigo show

[dillbox]

nice to see the a keyboard player next to larry instead of hiding under the stage

[dman102793]

thats the sound guy and thats a soundboard not a keyboard

[cathkel]

Poor Bono doesn't look like he's enjoying himself i reckon its because hes too far away from the crowd to get any feedback. His voice is shot it must have been some party

[baddalailama]

peace

[deborahu2]

i was hereeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[nookupang]

still great to enjoy U2 music, i think bono voice nice..but older... hehehe

[leelakin]

I think it will contain 15 tracks (80-90 mins), only the screening had 9 tracks (55 mins) :)

[maddogwally]

Your version is better. Looks like the Edge survived the boom camera hitting him the head. Whoops! The pit falls of a Rock Star! Looking forward to the film, wish it contained more than 9 tracks though.

Peace.
