  • This is great. A man and his guitar against the world.

  • The edge is great guitarist .

  • Chapter 2 No line on the horizon..

  • The Edge looks like Chuck Norris

  • @Rosanawohlke There is a difference, Edge needs to play the guitar, Chuck Norris need just to hold 'em and the guitar would play itselve

  • @karezza1

    *Edge

  • really strikes a chord deep within. can't help but let my eyes water a bit.

  • nothing, but beautiful.

    period.

  • små negrar i sanden

  • U2 are not that great, they are only popular because they have a good guitarist, he really gives them The Edge.

  • Mmmm he really does have a nice voice.

  • Grande U2, Grande The Edge, Grande mi Chile :D

  • @stepinside2007 your not normal

  • his voice is so high that he has to put a capo in 6th fret ! AMazing the edge !

  • @16Milou42 i think its in the 5th fret, but he IS FREAKIN AMAZING

  • @TheSuperman151 Using only the bottom 3 strings, without a Capo, it's B minor, D, and then just remove all the fingers except 3rd fret one to make the last one. Open G, I think, with a closed 3rd string. Then for the strumming, go to 4 chords with Eminor and D, but when you play the D it's the strum then the individual plucking again. Drop a finger to close the bottom E string, then lift all the fingers off to make it totally open, then return. Sorry, I can't explain much better than that . :(

  • his voice matches perfect with bono. The edge got a nice voice to. i like van diemens land and think he should sing more :D

  • Someone needs to grab those two chics by the hair and rip them back down to the floor. Nothing worse than inconsiderate fucking people.

  • beautiful and philosophical voice

  • Happy Birthday this week Mr. The Edge! lol You are not just my Guitar Hero, but you are an amazing singer and all round amaaazing person!!

  • Bono and the edge are both great musicians individually but combined they are AMAZING!

  • @museruls i personally think that the edge is a better musitian than bono individually, but there still a great group

  • HAPPY BIRTHDAY :D

  • This is breaking my heart...

  • the edge sounds just like bono

  • U2 would still been an amazing band without Bono! <3

  • edge´s voice is AMAZING

  • Is it just me or is Edge a better vocalist than Bono ever has been?

  • wow

  • Seriously underrated singer and guitarist. Wish he'd do a solo record.

  • Edge's voice is AMAZING!! *-* He's so sweet

  • is this a solo career or something

  • this is why i started 5 years ago playing guitar

  • the best guitarist in the history 

  • @prezydent2025 um were on crack wen u said this

  • @prezydent2025

    I agree! "The Sonic Architect"

  • This is BY FAR the best version of this song.

  • @captross07 Have you heard the Prague version? Very very similar but even less top strong strumming, so very light and just incredible.

  • Awsome...

  • beautiful voice

  • Only very very talented music man can very good sing and be a the best guitarist on the world.

  • Brilliant.

  • 10 people dont know good music when they hear it

  • "EDGE, I GOTTA GO TO THE JOHN - NOW MAN!!!!" "Dude...I got it, go ahead RUN!" " ...now let's see... what we got next, running to stand still?...... SUNDAY BLOODY SUNDAY!!??? - HO MY GOODNESS!!!!! I hope they don't boo me." *gulp*

  • @irishpunk, when either of them sing it, it sounds like garbage

  • he wrote sunday actually

  • when Bono sings it, it's very powerful (in the really driling it in)

    BUT when Edge sings it. it becomes a 'gentler' but still getting it through "do you see what you have done?" type thing. Just...wow

  • Jebany!

  • Too good to be true! That's awesome!!!

  • 10 people have a hard on for Bono

  • after 'numb', its the second time I hear the edge singin .

    Edge, you ROCK !!!

  • @bonavox11 Wanna hear the edge singing listen to van diemens land! i think its by far the best vocal he's done!

  • @larwhelan . You are so right !! I almost forgot that one !!

    The edge sings better than Bono can play the guitar .

    Thanks to remind me .

  • @bonavox11 That's true though Cheryl Cole sings better than Bono can play the guitar, ever so slightly haha no problem mate!

  • anyone know how he plays it? this is different from the normal version. does he tune different;ly?

  • @justjoe032 No, He just puts a capo on the fourth fret, then plays it normally, exept the form is moved up 5 frets, thats all

  • the edge makes this band what it is

  • @lazzaronico That may be so, but it was  Larry Mullen who started the band .

    Bono started as guitar player, but couldn't play well enough, so he started singing .

    Anyway, Best live rock n roll band ever .. !!

  • edge wrote the first lyrics that became this song, its good he gets to sing it too,

    great song, great man

  • Este vídeo mostra como a banda U2 é especial, além de ter um excelente vocalista também tem um guitarrista que manda muito bem cantando. Que banda abençoada por Deus

  • what guitar is he using in this?

  • @DominikGintowt

    his cream les paul custom

    was sold for charity in 2007... now he plays a replica of that guitar, specially made for him by gibson

  • @DominikGintowt its a gibson les paul custom :)

  • wow edge doesnt mess up too much. even the EDGE is human. that shows you even the best mess up sometimes. incredible performance though. incredible musician. hes in his own league jsut like the other guitar legends.

  • Any real U2 fan wouldn't be surprised at his vocal ability,knowing he sang part lead on Seconds and sang solo lead on Van Diemens Land.

  • 10 people are gay ! -.-

  • @RollTheFemers 1998

  • This is just amazing.. I like how he made Sunday Bloody Sunday more soft and emotional.. Really Beautiful.

  • i want to learn an introvert version like this on my guitar SO BAD.

  • @7leintje93 ur gay!!

  • @itzurboyleo you're so weird. and by the way, i'm a girl. aren't people expecting girls to like introvert and 'cute' or whatsoever things?

  • Edge is the best!

  • Sweeeeeeeeeeet. : )

  • Wooowwww what a great version ! The Edge has a beautiful and sexy voice like Bono !!! I really love those guys cause they are the best of the world !!!!

  • Comment removed

  • are those tatoos?

  • their on his shirt

  • yeah thats what i thought.. tight fitting shirt haha

  • edge is the coolest guy in the world

  • anyone want tabs? I found them

  • I like The Edge singing it better.

  • at least I'm not a little girly fan of a rip-off band who can't open their mind

  • u2 are a gimmick, over-rated and over-hyped.

  • So nice,. a shame people don't do concerts like this these days...

  • The Edge = amazing.

  • no, no its not a fact at all.

  • @breda83 fuck you

  • no i think your just a little bit jealous

  • @breda83 I've read some of the comments posted by you and I have a question that I would like for you to think about. Do you think you might be saying these things out of a pathological need to stand out? It just makes me think because you're making the same arguments again and again with no real cunstructive criticismand a complete and utter disregaurd for the music itself. I'd also like to point out, U2 has been a band for 30 years. I think they're entittled to make a little cash now.

  • The Edge is a Awsome and legendary Guitar player . and he is respected by legendary guitar players . he basicly made the .8th note delay and if you dont no what that is i guess ur not a guitar player. and simplicity isnt stupitity . His tone is Epic and his style is flawless . plus if you can do better then why arnt u on a stage playing infront of Thousands . him and john mayer are my favorite and most influencial musicians to me .

  • are you for fucking real or what?

  • Yeah . im dead serious . u must not no what reall guitar playing is!

  • U2 are a church sounding way over-rated corporate rip-off

  • umm no, he isnt an insult to genius guitarist. He is a "sonic architect" to quote JIMMY PAGE. you know him right? a genius guitarist. there is nothing wrong with simplicity...

  • @breda83 define what u mean by your "fact"

  • Fact means Fact son

  • @breda83 eh son?????? 1st of all i do know what the WORD fact means. i was just wanting for you to prove some real facts to show that u2 are over-rated. There is a difference between fact and opinion obv your is an opinion, which, we cant take away from you.

  • @breda83 A gimmick guitarist who's changed the face of modern music? Sure.

  • you sir are a faggot and a dumbass.

  • listen ,I am not yout father.

  • I agree......he's got over 25 years worth of music that's still appreciated, while most of those other "Legendary" guitarist blew their wad in less than a decade. WTF does an echo machine do to insult a genuine guitarist. Name one person on the radio that plays with no effects that fits the Legendary category. The Edge rocks

  • Bellissimo

    Bravo Edge! Così ti voglio :)

  • so much alike its creepy

  • sounds a little like bono

  • the difficult thing of this song is that The Edge sings "against" the rythm of his guitar rythm.

    surely, guys like Jimi Hendrix played more difficult songs - but Edge is not that type^^

  • i love this man. seriously.

  • still more famous then you

  • your taste in music is up your ass lol lol lol

  • He wrote the music to every u2 song so if you like or love u2 you love the creative magic of Edge. That is a fact.

  • you need a reality chech dude !!!!!! you know get out of your little box yeah he might not be the best guitarist but hey we all have our different styles dont we ? fortunately for the edge his is simple stuff with delay that created a whole new sound for music. and guess what if you think your any better why dont you try and do what he is doing im sure you wouldnt do well !!!!

  • clearly he is not one he is respected by many LEGENARY guitarists and others like myself two theres no written rules saying that your not allowed to write melodies purely on delay or any effect three he has got some really good technique look at the bullet in the sky solo and four GET OUT OF YOUR HOUSE AND LOOK AT THE BIGGER PICTURE AND STOP TRYING TO WIN AN ARGUEMENT THAT ANSWERS ITS SELF YOU TWAT !!!!!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • based on the comments on your channel i think its safe to assume you dont know much about anything. Maybe you should just quit while youre behind, cause you cant have an argument with false statements.

  • as famous and awsome as ever

  • Still way ahead of you,dumbfuck!

  • a 3.09 c'è un piccolo errore.....

    ma la canzone è bellissima comunque

  • sentito prima io,ahahahahhaha....

    oh,davanti a 200mila persona...

  • Si infatti..... Ma non credo ke il pubblico se ne sia accorto..... Cmq Glè lo si può perdonare

    XDXDXDXDXD

  • @LayItPlayItDown agreed.

    However, it's really hard for guitar players to sing words while playing solo parts unless they are really repetitive(i,e, radiohead's street spirit) or the words are easy(i.e. the typical lead singing background part: "ahhhhh"). You can hear the edge messing up a few times through the song(1:23ish); it's clear he is really concentrating.

    IMHO the only people who are really good at this is hendrix and john mayer.

    Still, this is an awesome version of a classic.

  • hey thanks man, that was insightful

  • @memorywarp listening to those people clap i would blame it more on the awful rhythm all around him.

    but yea its really hard and mayer is seriously under appreciated as a musician especially in that avenue

  • 3.09  one little error

    ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh

  • i find that the only difference between the edge and bono is that bono has a more powerfull 'iconic' voice. but david evans is still a superb singer

  • beautiful song

  • I love this version, he has just an amzing voice ♥

  • i think this is how the song should be permenately
