[xMrWhiteDudex]

The title describes the song

[Ccortanaa]

I LOVE YOU U2!!!!!

[nickgratton1]

the world has known only 3 super groups the beatles, the rolling stones, and u2

[dudemate78]

@nickgratton1 whats wrong with acdc they not big enough

[MrFerdell]

@nickgratton1 You forgot Zeppelin..

[Kenmorfdublin]

@nickgratton1 ..Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Queen, AC DC and The Who being the others you forgot to mention ;)

[SpaStvnvid]

oh yeah

[feralferret]

Sexiest guitar solo from Edge.

[jbrandt4him]

As a musician I can appreciate this great sound.... exalting the only one they can be referring to... Jesus Christ the "magnicet ONE". His name is above every name and at His name every knee shall bow. God U-2 No other one can declare us righteous! It's in the song bro...

[LedZeppelinisgod100]

Fuck anyone that says these guys aren't legendary.

[guitarnix34]

@LedZeppelinisgod100  amen!

[Vlaco84]

@AnarchyAhead. Excuse me. I made a mistake. I see you're a fan too. I thought you were talking crap about this video. My fault.

[Vlaco84]

@AnarchyAhead. Then why care to watch/listen? Really, when I think something isn't worth watching or listening. I simply don't.

Brilliant sound.

This is chilling, recorded or live

[feralferret]

@AnarchyAhead Was most definately *not* recorded. ;) Live all the way, baby!

With a limiter strapped across the main. Love the way the ambient synth pad chords are really loud and push forward in the verses.

[AnarchyAhead]

@feralferret I just meant that recorded it's also brilliant..... I had no doubt it was live, it's a real band! I've a long way to go improving my guitar work to comprehend what's going on under that hat. If he took it off, he'd probably look like a Cyberman from Dr Who.... out this world, I'll have to start going to bed with my guitar

[stevebenbob]

@jonoherron1 I love the way how the england???????????What sort of jibberish is this?

Bytheway 'The Egde' is a proud ENGLISHMAN as hes stated quite a few times before,just like Adam Clayton....another proud ENGLISHMAN!!

[69tomasito]

@stevebenbob the edge is irish his parents r welsh

[69tomasito]

@stevebenbob we dont go on about how 3 quaters of the beatles r of irish decent

[AnarchyAhead]

@jonoherron1 Who really cares? only small minded dumpsters worry about crap like this

[Tapiola2007]

It's pretty pathetic that people are arguing about where The Edge was born and is he English or Irish. U2 are a band from Ireland and they play their MAGNIFICENT music the world over.

[mussoorie111]

Without Bono's imagery lyrics and voice an- U2 wouldn't be U2.... To me U2 is Bono's voice and Edge's tingling guitar............

[mickysaidov]

Perfect perfect perfect!!!!!

[fjc7777]

U2 are IRISH best band in the world ! PERIOD!

[RODRIGOMEX121991]

maestros



[Paulinacameron]

what David Letterman said is true, the energy that this guys transmit in their concert is AMAIZING, lucky audience!! I saw Tina Fey when i went :)

[sejamtobemvindo]

I AM FROM BRAZIL, IT'S VERY NICE

[Kenmorfdublin]

U2 whoring themselves out for five days to a popcorn TV show, the shame... the shame...

[HolaDeco]

@Kenmorfdublin There's little they can do these days to keep a good audience they've retained since the 80s. Appearing on Letterman is one way.

[stevebenbob]

@Kenmorfdublin When your down to your last £100Million drastic times call for drastic measures!

[vortex755]

@Kenmorfdublin I know man, in a way, their just employees being told what to do. The Record label is the boss who tells them when and where.

[SeattleMark1979]

U2 & B&B

[MrCHAIRMANOFTHEBORED]

I will be greatly appreciative of any suggestions you can send me on how not to be nervous around her ,so I can ask her out for dinner and a movie and hopefully we will be dating when my brother and his fiance's wedding comes next July again I thank you all for your help with this matter

[DirectlyOffensive]

@MrCHAIRMANOFTHEBORED Just ask her: Would you like to go out with me some time?

THAT'S IT. Not harder than that. If she already knows you like her, why wait?

[MrCHAIRMANOFTHEBORED]

as I said at the end of my previous post I could use some suggestions on how to ask her out because evey time I see her and try to talk with her I get really nervous and over think what I want to say to her,because I really care about what she thinks of me. I really like the feeling I get when I see her or when I'm around her, she knows I like her alot , please folks send me some ideas on how I can get over my nervousness when I'm around her or when I see her so I can ask her out,

[MrCHAIRMANOFTHEBORED]

I want to play this song at my brother and his fiance's wedding reception next july, for them as well as for this lady at work I want to ask out for dinner and a movie as I believe that she is the most beautiful intelligent lady I've ever had the honor of meeting,she is everything I look for in a lady she is intelligent,has blonde hair,blue eyes,she's the same height as me,she has a great body,comes from a good family,she's a great mother to her child, I just need some suggestions on how to ask

[yuckthefankees2000]

who the fuck cares where they were born people like U2 for their awesome music and not for their heritage even if clayton and the edge were born in england, U2 origianted from ireland making them an irish rock band

[stevebenbob]

@yuckthefankees2000 Your'e right U2 play Awesome music(I think this live version is better than the recorded one),but i was merely pointing out that most of the best rock guitarists in the world -"MOST"-originate from England,which includes'The Edge'

[beatinDobby149]

@stevebenbob edge is from ireland not england you douche

[stevebenbob]

@beatinDobby149 No hes not "douche"I know it hurts like hell but he was born in London,which was the last time i looked on the map, in ENGLAND;Which makes him ENGLISH!!!!!!!!

I'am sure you'll get over it.

[HolaDeco]

@beatinDobby149 Edge was born in Barking (London suburb) on 8 August 1961. He moved to Ireland with his family at a real young age. Case closed.

[wolfennyc]

Don't think Adam Clayton was born in London though....I think Adam Clayton was born near Oxford,England.

[ketankshukla]

The GREATEST band ever assembled! Absolutely spine tingling music! BRILLIANT! 100 stars out of 5 :-)

[TheCanadaGold2010]

This is the greatest band of all time for all eternity.

[gosj3964]

MAGNIFICENT  !

[feralferret]

Wish I could hear Adam's bass, seems to have been EQ'd right out.

[dalivoxhewson]

very underated song to date but not forever

[kingpunk2000]

like this if your irish and are not proud of U2

[ColorblindCasper81]

The edge is a freakn boss. He doesnt play the guitar the tracitional way he taught himself. He's so right! Screw chords! Do whatever sounds good! But U2's older stuff is the shit.

[NeonDCL]

Ahhh one of their best songs! I personally like it better live!

[Niesha18C]

I really like this song!!... too bad for the 79 jackass', they've never seen anything MAGNIFICENT!!

[thefonze007]

why are they so good? please tell people?????

brian,,, IRELAND x x x

[ljwjfac110369]

hope they gave the appearance money to charity. they used to be the coolest band up untill the joshua tree, guess everyone has there price.

[ChiapasZapata]

Clayton plays no Lakland?

[kurtnils]

@britflik- I guess you arent familiar with 99% of pop and rock! LOL!! Even the beatles used layed effects with Ronnie Spector! What an idiotic comment! Take effects away from ANY band even unplugged! Its part of the sound- even old Blues records have a scratchy effect that makes them better- Your like Bill Oreilly- make up some crazy "fact" and than argue with it-- wow They have won more grammys than any other band in History! Look that FACT up pal! ROTF!

[ironskull57]

britflik you do not no talent if it bit you on the ass .

[britflik]

i guess nobody here knows how u2 actually make their music. theres so much echo and reverb, check an actual mixing desk recording of them, theyre pretty awful when u take effects away

[bugmusk6]

@britflik lmao you are a fucking moron!!!!!

[britflik]

@bugmusk6 yeh well have u checked?

[elisdewaard1]

@britflik

Kind of logically when you play an electric guitar huh?! Stupido!

Listen, I have a electric guitar with just a small amp and also on that amp there are effects like waves etc, nothing important!

[slockyboy]

The Absolute Best!!!!!

[DimStep17]

NEW MUSIC GROUP CAN DIN SKY

[Slikrik1212]

That intro is sick!!!

Love Letterman's U2 description when he references "shoot some electricity right to the spine". That's pretty much exactly what U2 does. Their sound is just so unique.

[us601308]

This is awesome song by the greatest rock band in the world! My only complaint is the stage lighting could have been a little better.

[Kenmorfdublin]

We Irish aren't that bad are we? ;)

[dougww1ectebow]

@Kenmorfdublin I've been to Ireland, twice. No, you definitely are not. :-)

[Kenmorfdublin]

@dontnomuch Typed he waving the white flag, fucking love it. ;)

Some mothers do ave' em! lol!

[Kenmorfdublin]

@dontnomuch You type such shit, and as expected living up to your dumb username's ignorance, the Nazis and Hitler were funded by Jewish owned banks.

Observations and truth have nothing to do with anti-truth Nazidiots like yourself.

[evelynnjoo]

love this song!!

[Kenmorfdublin]

@dontnomuch You can't talk, your country owes trillions to China because you let Israeli Zionists take over your country, most of puppet Obama's team are Israeli's and they are currently pillaging your economy to fund their wars -with American blood - against their Arab neighbours.

My beloved Bono? - I can't stand the fucking idiot.

[bugmusk6]

@Kenmorfdublin lmao you are a moron!!! Bono will be remembered forever but you won't be remembered for anything!!!!

[Kenmorfdublin]

@bugmusk6 Speak for yourself you pop idol worshipping clown. Bonohead is your hero? Well the laughs on you stupid.

[Kenmorfdublin]

@dontnomuch No, you thought of it first, not me, and you decided it would be a good idea for a username, quite staggering really.

[Kenmorfdublin]

@dontnomuch ...you don't know much do you? - at least you admit to it anyway.

[wolfennyc]

@dontnomuch take a long walk off a short pier,shitdick..U2 are like young punks compared to the Rolling Bones,Aerosmith and the Who......those are bands that are too "OLD"

[jppjc]

@dontnomuch yeah over a million views..this song must be terrible..get a clue u bonehead if u dont like them or the song dont watch the video douche bag

[Kenmorfdublin]

@jppjc Well said jppjc ;)

[themonaluisa]

Love it!

[KendoWatcher]

my first concert was u2 it was awsome.

[johannerbeerkraut]

for every game in munich football stadium they play a video with traditional pictures of the club and this song in the backround! just magnificent!!^^

[kxjack]

This is the only way people can comment when i show them incredibly stupidity.

Yes my english is crap is not my native language but at least i have a brain.

I believe in democracy and i fight for a better world even if don't use a perfect english people can understand.

[Tomsouthrock]

mothers rock baby ..........dont forget it ........lets walk in the wind girl shhhhhhhhhhit....

[adomeg]

IMHO, this David Letterman live version is better than the studio version. Note how much more prominent the Edge's guitar is on this live version.

[l0lkie]

hups... somebody could dislike this???? !!!

this is magnificent

[u2mc1]

super group.........................­........

[jmillzz2]

The real hero of U2 is the Edge.

The way he uses effects is so right on.

If you even know a little about guitar technology you know you are hearing

a fortune coming through those guitar speakers.

[stevebenbob]

@jmillzz2 What do you expect? All the best guitarists are English!!

[jhein1992]

@stevebenbob the edge is irish...

[stevebenbob]

@jhein19 No hes not,as i stated earlier,both The Edge and Adam Clayton were born in London ENGLAND,so you can say half the band are ENGLISH!

Hope your not too dissapointed.......

[jhein1992]

@stevebenbob interesting...im not irish so i don't particularly care...i do think its quite interesting that probably the two biggest bands ever in america, the beatles and u2, are not american...

[wolfennyc]

@stevebenbob you're absolutely right ...Edge was born in London to Welsh parents and was raised in Ireland

[toates9721]

@stevebenbob are jimi hendrix, slash, john frusciani and eddie van halen english NO, and don,t give me jimmy paige(good) and eric clapton as examples, ps the edge is a irishman you don,t have to be born in a place that makes you a citizen you have to want to be part of that race and embrace it

[stevebenbob]

@toates9721 The Edge was born in England -end of conversation-i won money on this as a bet.

My comments about all the best guitarists originating from England was a bit 'tounge in cheek',but i also could have added Dave Gilmour and Mark Knoffler in you response;i also could mention Nigel Tuffnall;who could forget the legendary Spinal Tap guitarist!

[BoxiestLive777]

@jmillzz2 you know the right thing one time the edge song beautiful day alone his voice is better than bono's voice

[CabbageMan55]

@jmillzz2 i agree...the edge wrote 'sunday bloody sunday' entirely on his own. He even performs it alone at a few gigs

[JulietteRomeoAlpha]

One of their best songs to date! Get's me going every time!

[alynmearns]

Check out the winedarksea cover of Mysterious Ways...frighteningly good! U2 = best band since The Beatles!

[thebestacc100]

You guys are the best band ever you are legends and always will be.......... Some day I want to learn to play the guitar the same way as the edge..........love you guys you rock

[GodsAthiest]

Not their best album, in fairness.

[Smokie1960]

Best band on earth at this time by a huge margin

[akvavitten]

U2 make people happy....

[Ferstoned]

Stones are MUCH better than U2.....

[W2Jackass]

@Ferstoned How can you even compare the two..? :l

[lyfzwrthlvngful]

They are the best ..... and that's it ...

[finnsia]

U2 is GAY

you stupid homos

go die on an island

go suk diks from ur fav groups u sick homo freaks

go die in a ditch

[baird007]

@finnsia Go get a life, junior.

[finnsia]

@baird007 lol back to you kiddo

[baird007]

@finnsia Good comeback. Got any more?

[finnsia]

@baird007 Just get a life sir so stop replying

You accuse me of not having one yet you continue to spend your time here playing your childish games. You're pathetic.

A word of advice is for you to stop being such a hypocrite and live by your own words and go out into the real world and do something with your self. Instead of writing "Go get a life, junior." Your condescending school yard insults merely make me sick. You're pathetic, I'm disgusted by your behavior. This is over.

[baird007]

Sorry, I don't need to take your advice. I think you should take it because you obviously need it for yourself. Good luck!! :)

[finnsia]

@baird007 You arrogant adolescent condescending crap makes me sick. You need the advice your over grown child.

[baird007]

@finnsia Well, coming on this forum proclaiming "U2 is gay" is a very mature response! No one wants to read your insulting crap on this forum. Does it make you feel like a big boy to call people names? Does that make you feel justified? It only shows how insecure you are and name calling doesn't enforce self confidence. That is all I have to say to you. Hopefully you can find a form of resurgence in your life and grow up. All you're doing is projecting your insecurities on other people.

[finnsia]

@baird007 cute comeback but you're merely an overgrown child trying to feel good about yourself, grow up

[baird007]

@finnsia Take your own advice. You clearly need it for yourself.  I don't have to try and feel good about myself. I already do feel good about myself. How do you feel about yourself?

[finnsia]

@baird007 good

[beatlejuice1969]

@TimodeBoxer ... I respect your opinion, really. As a band, The Beatles were only together from 62-69 technically w/ Ringo. That is their 1st album to the last. Think about that:  13 albums in 8 years. Along w/ touring, singles, writing for other bands, films. I have every U2 album, so not to take anything away from them. But, remember in the 90's during the Zooropa, Pop time frame. U2 lost their way for a time there too. They have stayed a phenom. since '80, Untouched 4 longevity.

[BrianjustBrian]

Beatles had no cometition. U2 writes better songs too. Sounds better. They're just WAY better

[beatlejuice1969]

@BrianjustBrian ... Well let's see. ComPetition in the 60s: Rolling Stones, Kinks, Bob Dylan, Beach Boys, Led Zeppelin, The Who, Miracles, Jimmi Hendrix, The Doors, Temtations, Ray Charles, Little Richard, Jefferson Airplane, Credence, Eric Clapton, and Elvis off the top of my head. Yeah, no competition at all.... Like I said before, I'm big U2 fan too, but who's their competion now? Lady Ga Ga and all the computerized garbage? Your'e killing me man!

[dingo48307]

The Beatles are The Beatles and cannot be matched, but U2 is a phenomenal band.

[dshibbs1027]

I know when the edge came up with that riff for the first time he knew it was a hit. Wish I had that kind of songwriting ability.

[mikevbushy]

u2 is far superior to the beatles dudes old fogies saying the beatles shaped what bands such as us are, ARE COMPLETELY HOGWASH!!!! You idiots act like the beatles were the ONLY people making pop rock and roll music ever. IT's ridiculous

[beatlejuice1969]

@mikevbushy .. I'll pick apart your post 1st. MUSIC IS SUBJECTIVE PEOPLE. Opinion. Comparing bands is stupid. Like comparing Laruel & Hardy to 3 stooges and Marx Bros. just because it's all comedy.

The Beatles were breifly influenced by Dylan, did NOT pay tribute to him. In fact, Lennon parodied Dylan songs in the 70s (Lennon Anthology). Now, I've seen U2 live and they sang Help, Helter Skelter, Sgt. Pepper, and God Pt. 2 (Lennon Tribute)...THEY were Beatle influenced, BIG TIME.

[breachmania]

That's a great tie David!

[burubudur12345]

I came.

[Derry100]

Just an incredible moment of music. The EDGE is one of the most talented and wonderful guitarist in the world ! This song make me really vibrate ! Thks to this wondeful band !

[andreestes]

I really think that U2 channels God through their music.

[PirateXzibit]

@andreestes Absolutely. No questions about it.

[mnmm1]

@andreestes I'm not impressed with celebrity either way, but musically, these guys are at a level above anyone else. Their music is spiritual.

[offthelinegt]

69 dislikes?!?!?!?! ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?! There are at least 69 retarded people on youtube I guess

[flabbledabble]

@offthelinegt at least? there are so many stupid people on youtube its ridiculous ... Anybody who cant appreciate at least one U2 song has problems (although we should worship them all ;-)

[Iphone4isnumber5]

@offthelinegt them people are deaf...hahahaha

[MsJCBurke]

@offthelinegt watch it or Sarah Palin will tweet you into oblivion.

[kxjack]

@offthelinegt

You are one of 10000000000 IDIOTS OF THE WORLD that came on youtube

Who the fuck you are to oblige everyone to like U2 !!! , i like them as well as others bands, but i don't pretend from others that they like what i like this is world and demorcracy.

This is what U2 fight for and by reading your words they would probably don't want to a fan like you.

[offthelinegt]

@kxjack Wow, your english is TERRIBLE! I'm not quite sure if you're bashing me or complimenting me .. you've got some work to do buddy lol

[chompypunk890]

@offthelinegt Oww ! Don't be so rude with them. They maybe like Mariah Carey, Enrique Iglesias, ... or The Jonas Brothers. Hehehe :D

[xXcloudlowellXx]

@offthelinegt unfortunately more then that my friend, they just haven't seen this video yet

[jpjames1]

The Beatles lacked testosterone probably only thing they didn't have. Elvis had it Rolling stones had it and U2 have got it too

[blenderhead14]

69 people wont stop clapping their hands.

[apegrape1000]

haha so much reverb

[XDRockMusic]

was bono sick during this show? 2:35?

[pablof59]

Absolutely great !!

[ameredon1]

just want to know if edge is a baldie guy..

[pastyourhorizon]

I'd still want to see these guys live if they were all in wheelchairs because they'd still beat out any other band.

[xMrWhiteDudex]

Its almost sterotypical to say your favorite band is better live than on the studio album but U2 truly is better live . They really get the purity of the sound from their live performances on songs like this, elevation , and many many others !

[jhgosnell]

superb live...i agree...even better than studio i think

[hecktine]

u2 Rocks Fan since 1986 THE Beatles Led zep doors Pink f ROCK N ROLL the best music for the soul

[NikonFstopper]

Pink Floyd is No 1, then comes U2, the Beatles, and Zeppelin.

[TheHermit76]

@NikonFstopper you´re right, maybe not the Beatles. Greetings from Vienna/Austria/European Union
