  • This is going to sound amazing live and in person on the tour! Can't wait. They have 10 great songs to play off this album. Don't think Cedars would translate too well to a big stadium...all the others...fantastic.

  • Seen them 5 times so far!!! It gets better ever time. Fed X brought me my tix last week can't wait for number 6!

  • U 2 sucks S.O.A.D is better million times!!!!!!!!!

  • hu the fuk r s.o.a.d

    That being said this is their worst single ever!!! Every single song on NLOTH is better.

  • underspeed: couldn't be, because my sharona isn't genius and this IS!

    perhaps some of the nay sayers would reconsider if they knew "get on your boots" is south? african, for get on your condom?

  • Bring it on U2!!!!! ARE THE BEST- LOVE U2 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx­xxxxxxxxx

  • Kind of reminds me of ZooTV and Popmart - This time the gigs will have something special

    'let me in the sound' part will cause earthquakes

    MAGNIFICENT U2

  • buen ritmo y acordes dentro de su linea.Me gustaria verlos por Madrid

  • It's easy to crititcize a band..any band it would be.

    "This is not good because...." "that's not good because..." "this is not good beacuse.." bla bla bla..

    Hold you the instruments and play music. I just would see what you are able to do!

    Who of you think that is able to make something original or "to save" the music????

    please...shut up!There are too much comments very ridiculous

  • cant get enough of this opening greatest band in the world!, i give a shit about all u2 haters, eat shit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Part 2

    I wouldnt mind so much but it seems U2 are trying to pass this off as their own original work. U2 are by far not the best band in the world and it seems crazy to even attempt at labelling a band as the "best in the world". How can you logically compare what is the most diverse subject within the arts?

    Get on your boots? Really intelligent Bono, give youself a gold star.

  • i dont like the part how beautiful u are ar are sound crap wtf Bona has makeup on his eyes

  • let me in the sound!

  • The whole sexy boots thing is about in the bible with the armour of god, they are effectively saying that gods boots are sexy... :)

  • Comment removed

  • great song from u2

    "get on your boots yeah"

  • ecovision78,DSB1993,cafora007. Instead of coming on here talking SH** about the best band in the World why not go play your Take That albums and fuc* off. Best band in the World Period

  • take that dont make me laugh im not saying u2 are shit they're a gr8 band but this song is a bit shit especially the lyrics come on uve gotta agree on that fella

  • let me hear the sound let me hear the sound, is he retarded where is his helmet and armbands

  • flora: if you're going to criticise get the lyrics right! at least.  let me in the sound ref.s amazing grace how sweet the Sound. Meet me in the Sound, if you wanted to know bono, meet him thru &inside his music. it's an intelligent rock song, i'm not surprised alot of people don't 'get' it. however, they've presented it for the whole world as pure rock fun, which it is, except to those like you that hate them for whatever reason and try to get to them thru leaving irrational remarks like yours.

  • the tune is good but the lyrics are hilarious

  • i wish people would just save some silly ignorant comments to great videos... keep it together and make a more decent use of ur time dsb1993

  • Hahahah, the guitar player forgot to turn on the distortion in the beggining of the song, when the drums entered, lol. But he still a great musician.

  • he hadn't forgotten! it's just like that! he does it everytime they play! :D

  • hahaha yeah

  • I Love seeing and listening to U2, they are the BEST ROCK BAND IN THE WORLD, LOVE this tune, WELCOME BACK GUYS, I would LOVE to be back stage with U2!!!!!!!!!!ummmmmm LOL, my mind wanders!

  • Comment removed

  • Coldplay and U2 are great! Peace my brothers and sisters

  • coldplay are fucking shite; I'd rather cut off my own dick, fry it and eat it, than listen to whiny ol' chris martin! make way for U2, the real deal is back in town again!!

  • Like this performance of the song but the rest of the album is much better than this song.

  • Maybe but its still a hell of an opening salvo to issue people with at the Brits.

  • awful song listen to something worth listening to such as coldplay

  • HAHAHAHA cold play is the child of U2

  • u2 is shit why are they trying to modernise everything why does bono nnow where eye liner  they should've given up 10 years ago and even bono sed that he is threatened by coldplay

  • I really like this song, it's catchy and I like the guitar in it;) Why r u all critizising?? Haters! I'm a number one U2-fan, and I'm not dissapointed with their new single.. Bono is so talented, he's good with lyrics, and Edge is a fucking good guitar player.. !!! Love this band!

  • Also the you don't know how beatiful talks about the beauty of women. and there are some lines talking about a feeling bono expressed all over the album: sometimes he feels he don't want to talk about political issues but it his work to help people to understand that peace is better and we don't have to argue. Many people will never understand the song because it has many lines which talk about nothing, but as i said women are the main idea of this song.

  • what bollocks, he's a prick. you are talking shit! he sat down and thought i know put some crap lyrics down on a piece of paper, repeat them, repeat them again, im bono, i think im god and everyone will buy my album. give it up u2, no longer needed. women.... wanker.

  • F*ck you very mediocre musicians and make way for bands who deserve it!! I love the Edge's 'solo'.... makes me piss myself!! ha ha

  • u2.....so far up their own fucking arses that they made a lame excuse on radio 1 that they run out of runway 2 do a cover of someones song. tossers more like they feel everyone is beneath them. fuck off bono edge adam fred brian john....who are u? give it u r past it!!!!!!! knobends.

  • this is a great song at heart, the recording's fucking weak though. drums sound flat, as do the vocals.

    I read an interview with Brian Eno where he said that the problem with U2 is that they work songs to death, til they become lame, then great again, then lame again, etc etc- seems the album deadline caught Get On Your Boots at the "lame" stage...

  • This is sad :( What the HELL have they DONE? I NEVER thought U2 would get me using capital letters in a bad way :S Bloody shite.

  • bad song

    u2 have lost it

  • Please check out their new song Breathe live and then decide if U2 have lost it. I don't think so. Boots is the worst song on the album

  • i agree!!! this song is embarassing!!! Great band but a horrible song!!

  • вашу мать!!! как же он ПРЕКРАСЕН!!!!!

  • nice song

  • staunch U2 fan, but not deluded...this is poor! seems like they fired a couple of songs together. can only hope that the rest of the album is better...first song is not usually representative of the rest...heres hoping so anyhow!

  • WOW

  • did i just see a little mascara on bono ha

  • This song is weird and terrible.

    I hope the rest of the album is better :)

  • I have listening to the majority of the new album and let me tell you it is so under par compared to there last albums and previous tracks.

    U2 maybe one of the biggest bands out there but this album is poor

  • I can see the band trembling with your analysis of this fucking belter of a tune...

    If you dont like it dear boy, i suggest you take the dildo from your rectum, cover your eyes and turn up your Rhianna album...

    We'll do the real stuff...

  • Maybe the best live band ever

  • U2 - a band who define their greatness not in albums but in ERAS.

    Another one begins - by a long way the most gruff, jagged REAL rock performance of the night.

  • they still got it.

  • chris brown and rihanna were supposed to sing this but u2 were chosen instead cuz chris brown got arrested 4 hittin rihanna. im glad u2 did it cuz u2 actuall sing<write and play their own music

  • Oh wow better than Achtung Baby, I din't know it was possible. Zoo Tv is resurected better than ever.

  • check out: WEF 08 Bono

  • sounds so much better live

  • they are amazing!!!

  • does anyone know if u2 is going on tour for this album and when?

  • yes, this summer/autumn

  • I bet "let me in the sound..." part with Edge's superb riff will set off earthquakes in arenas and stadiums

  • Los mejores del mundo

  • this song is so much better live, but i read several coments and lots of fulls said that u2's sound sucks now and that they are old, well i have an answer, i heard the record and boots it's clearly the worst song of the record, but the album is perfect on everyside, it's very experimental but it has given to me some new favourite u2 songs, magnificent, unknown caller, i'll go crazy tonight, stand up, FEZ, breathe, they are all my new favourite songs, then i like the rest a lot except boots

  • have you got the new album...am dying for it

  • yes but i'm sorry you'll have to wait, but trust me, it diserves the waiting

  • cheers for that mate. now am even more desperate for it

  • check out breathe live

  • yeah i did its shit like this

  • sounds better live i think

  • I agree,much better.

  • u2-the lord's of the music

  • Martin L. Gore (= Depeche Mode) is better than this. Dave and Mart's voice is amazing, awesome. WRONG :D

  • I have always been a big U2 fan but this is just a rip off of Escape Club's Wild Wild West

  • the best band!!

  • OMG!!!! love it!!!!! i thought bono had an eye problem with flashing lights n that's why he wear sunglasses. hmmmmm anyway i love it!!!!!!!

  • whats bono doing with the eye make up?

  • return of Mr McPhisto !!!

  • U2 trying to do Led Zepp sort of?

  • get on your boots grows on you with each performance..so will the album no doubt

  • u2 are the best band in the world, who can even come close haaaaaaaa.....

  • Alot of bands

  • coldplay cant play u2 rip offs

  • When did I say I liked Coldplay? there shit

  • muse, radiohead,coldplay, and 1 band that as always been better than them is simple minds but have never been the media darlings like u2 ! check out book of brilliant things live hats what your call live boss

  • I'm a Born and bred Dublin/irish U2 fan-I have supported U2 since at least 1982-what amazes me is that they are still able to reinvent themselves over and over and do it with grace and style-and at that ......... 27 years on from which i first heard them

  • There are worse songs on the album. This is actually one of the good ones

  • what ever fuck head............

  • Fantasic comeback brilliant tune Welcome back, Love U2 xxxx

  • Bono = Greatness

  • i dont think its that great

  • You like U2 ?? watch this ---> watch?v=WSatzWI532M

  • Good job U2

    Bono said back in an interview in the 90s - 'the first job for a rock n roll band is not to be dull'

    The whole point of this song is to be different to other crap thats out there, U2 move with the times.

    The brits whent downhill after this performance, dull, boring performances from duffy, coldplay, take that, KOL and pet shop boys are just crap so they don't count

    Thank You

  • These guys could trawl out Kings of Leon / Coldplay stuff in their sleep, album after album.

    The point is the fans of other bands hoped that they would do JUST that!! They were hoping they'd become predictable dinosaurs. But they are restless - they are for moving on

    This album will drag them just further away from the other "biggest" bands in the world. They'll say "Take it, take the safe conventional crown, enjoy it - we'll get back to where our heart is - the mad sonic beauty of the 90s.

  • absolutely spot on - cant agree more.

    Incredible and surprising start. reminded me of touches of Popmart and ZooTV.

    They're just one incredible band

  • u2 don't even play on half there albums its all done by eno and there helpers ! its a shit song thats the bottom line

  • I've seen you been saying things about u2 all over the video. I'm sure you don't understand the song, can you explain the lyrics to me?

  • thats the thing i have always liked u2 ! but i don't have a clue what this song is about and its really bad as music go's! u2 has written classics from bad to one tree hill to zoo station 1 there is nothing you can tell me about u2 and there history ! if its a bad song it critisised and this is bad

  • well even you really anoyed me with your comment, I'll tell you what is this song about. The song uses as metaphors sentences that aren't used as metaphors but if you hear it again you'll understand it. The song says that women are the best thing men can have and that we have to be with them if we want to succeed in the future. the chorus get on your boots is like bono telling women to act don't feel ashamed of what they are and act. I will continue on another coment

  • Wait until you hear the album. I'ts totally brilliant and thankfully nothing like boots

    Best performance of the night

    Listen to

    Magnificant

    Moment of Surrender

    Crazy

    Fez

    All classic

  • Damn! forgot is U2! :p (Sofi)

  • Love you too since i was 14th(28th now), but don't really like his last cd's, too far commercial. They need that thing that they used to have. I think they are rich enough now, so they should care in release albums that really kick ass!

  • The quality is horrible,althought U2 gave the best show!The "No Line On The Horizon" will be a huge success

  • well, if you are saying it is mimed don't ya think he might have grabbed a track that sounded better (don't get me wrong I loved it ---LIVE and RAW) cuz he sounds a little hoarse, like he has a cold or bronchitis or something. But would you turn down a performance like this if sick? No. And it was sick. (in a good way)

  • Sub stream of conch shell DRIVEL. don't wanna hear about wars between nations from venture cap philanthro rocker blah blah rant continues at the rant after party with all the other liggers trading in third hand riffs and omphalos gazing stately plump music GOOD TO B BACK!

  • wow i didnt realize larry was actually singing during the bridge until someone mentioned it lol awesome

  • He be better off trying to learn how to play the drums first

  • This almost 50 year old guys still ROCK. This is definitely the most infleuntial band in the last 30 years... Nobody expect this performance from such an Old Band. THEY ROCK... The song is not their best one. But it makes the effect. And It makes the trick. The Album is another different animal. I love How they marketed this album... Good musicians, good business men. They know what they do. That;s for sure... FUCK ALL HATERS... I LOVE U2

  • i think it must be embarrassing for other young, contemporary bands that U2 (a band from the 80's for goodness sake!) are giving them a run for their money!

  • I love The Edge but he's not at the top of his game right now, sounds aweful.

  • I'm still not crazy about the words, but at least this sounds better live than the over-produced album version. I'll be curious to see what these guys are up to on the album, I haven't listened in over a decade.

  • I really enjoyed this - good performance and the visuals are stunning! LOL at the sunglasses coming off after all these years - turns out he's been hiding his eyeshadow all these years ha ha! And yes I agree, the new album is fucking awesome, and this song sounds much better in that context

  • fukkin awful mimed it too nice eyeliner wanker LOL

  • Get one thing straight, you clueless muppet. U2 have not mimed a song live in the last 25+ years or more. If you think this is mimed, then you're the wanker!

  • Are you blind? It's not mimed. Plus, if it's awful, why are you watching the video. U2 is the best band in history.

  • excellent!

  • New U2 Album Is Fuckin Great if u want it go to an @U2 Forum and someone there will send u a link!! Don't be fooled by GOYB even tho its not a bad song its defo my least favorite on the album!

  • The new album is fucking brilliant.

    Also the opening of this live performance and the let me in the sound parts are ace. Still, it's the worst song on the album....

  • It rocks..welcome back U2..the new album is fukin great..

  • Oh yes. As the band pointed out 2009 will be theirs. Can not wait for the Album :-)

  • it is all over the interweb now, and boy is it amazing.

  • Good performance of a mediocre song (by U2 standards). Allthough the song is growing on me.

  • Stupid answer (by stupid person standards)

  • Go fuck yourself, dickhead.

  • If that was towards me I don't get it. When I said thankfully nothing like boots it was ment in a good way. Boots is a good song live but its nothing new and its nowhere near the level of their great songs. U'll see when you hear the album.

  • It was'nt directed at you, it was directed at stevik74, who just posted an insulting comment about me, for no reason.

  • I just posted an insulting comment about you... like you just posted an insulting comment about U2..

    I thing ( i'm sure) that we (all) are nothing compares to U2 or all the big bands of all the world. you can judge one song but not all the works maded in 30 years by one of the best bands in the music's history . So that's why I said to you STUPID PERSON ( and i'm still thinking about it).

  • I was just judging that song, which I don't think is very good. I does'nt mean I was slating U2, because I am also a fan. If you heard the album you'd realise that it's probably the worst song on the album.

  • Yours :"Good performance of a mediocre song (by U2 standards)"

    so explain CLEARLY what do you mean about it.

    form me... BY U2 STANDARDS.. mean an insult to them!

    yes i heared ... MAGNIFICENT ALBUM

  • that kick ass zoo tv attitud is back and im luving it...

  • WOOOOHOOO!!! That's amazing!

    The part where Larry stands up to sing and banging those tom's! Cool, let see him sing more (just in case of Love and Peace or Else)!

  • I got a bit excitable when I saw Larry stand up and sing!

    I hope he does more!

  • best perfomance of the brits by a country mile!!!

  • Almost same as grammy;s to bad

    but i love it L=:P

  • mejor ke en los grammys 1000X
