  • check out my song last love story, I was inspired by this song to write it!!

  • My baby girl Xpristina is my soul...when we got together and had a child (one hot night in NYC...) I heard trumpets and my son, Alexandros was born. Makedonian and Puerto Rican! What a mix. I love therefore I am....

  • lol i actually thought this was the actual music video xD

  • SHINE

  • Oh look at 1:05 it's Amy Winehouse lookalike

  • with your twin flame you do not compete with one another nor do you pretend to be other than who you are. You love each other for their individuality and uniqueness. You understand that some things are better left to your twin's strengths rather than competing.....one day ...

  • i want to learn to play it on the guitar

  • This song makes me feel so many things. Great lyrics.

    Amazing song. U2 is the best band. !!!

  • Such an amazing song - makes me double bitter I'm on my way to old age and haven't experienced the feelings expressed in this song in what seems like a lifetime - and even then, only for what seems like a flash in time.

  • Uma das melhores !!!

  • This is so fun to sing to...!!

  • Tiene algunas fallitas pero me gustó me gustó tu trabajo Manuel Aragón (y), felicidades.

  • You can run from love and if it is realy love it would find you ....

    some day ... I hope it would find me too

  • This song basically does nothing for me, but when his voice hits that little transition in the chorus when he says 'man, AND a womannnn', it blows my mind a little.

  • Great video :-)

  • Just bought this song. Love it.

    My first personal U2 favourite! =)

  • i used to listen this song 7 years ago, when i was 13, 14yr, and i never listened again.

    now, i'm reminding those times and... fuck!! . i miss those times.

    one of my favorite U2 songs.

    Love it.

  • No matter how many times i hear this i cry...Love can be wonderful...One day,,one day,,one,,...I await for my soulmate...blessings!..cbono69

  • yeah. but the actual video suxx...

  • nice video, I really enjoyed it, u2 is amazing !

  • Favorite song from this album!

  • My man and I broke up today for things that are out of ours hands. Always since the single was realased I love it ...it hepls me to get out all that I have inside of my heart. I want you know that I wish you all the good luck and goodness in this life.

    I still loving you Babe. <3

  • My heart breaks for those who have no one.....

  • @earthalien77 But then, I also see the freedom they have!!! lol

  • Addictive song

  • @Spacejunc How do you make this video? :)

  • After Something of the Beatles, this song is the most romantic songs of all the music story.

  • wait is she... Thought they got rid of all of them in ww2!

  • luk guy's expression during "i thought this is d 1 4 me"

    i wonder y didnt he sleep lyk a stray dog :P

  • My absolute favourite from U2! But the video... I regret to say this but it's horrible. Gives nothing back about the meaning of the song. And it's not even ended decently. A crime against the song.

  • Been listening to U2 again. Their more current albums. Feels like coming home. Melodramatic, yea. :) You guys really are my first love. <3

  • Dude you need to up load this in HD with better sound quality to do it justice!

  • super group... great song... another one of hundreds... this group is as good as the Beatles... Led Zepplin,.. The Who...

  • I know I'm going to get several thumbs down for what I'm going to say next, but... Maddox's article about these shitty songs was hilarious. :D

  • the purest, the best love song. if I can say so.

  • One of my favourite song...

  • Muy buena cancion... una de las mejores... amigo Spacejunc podrias decirme en que web site podria descargarla???.,... por favor... te lo agradeceria muchissimo... muchas gracias

  • is this a remake of the song "a man and and a woman" by francis lai?

  • Too bad "romance" doesn't rhyme with "distance". Faggots.

  • @Jakker27 Was that somehow directed at me? Did you just try to insult me?

  • i LOVE this song. i sing it(horribly) everytime it comes on at work =D

  • I love it!

  • i love this song !!!

  • Wow Love it .

    and this is the first song of U2 that ive heard .

    so romantic .

  • I couldn't agree more with twocord about this song reminding me of never finding my special soulmate even at 50yo! My only one died of cancer 23 years ago when we were still in our 20s. Such is life.

  • My favourate line is:  "Brown eyed girl across the street;

    On Rue Saint Divine"...♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

  • @earthalien77 I thought this is the one for me but she was already mine; you were already mine

    :)

  • One of MANY songs that comes right to mind when I hear some moron say that U2 hasn't done anything great since Joshua Tree!

  • What a good song this is... so is video! I didn't know this song till the other!

  • i dont get the video did she die ??????

  • one of the most beautiful and unknown songs of u2..i've always find it very "feminine" in music and words..so amazing a man can write this..

  • the video is BEAUTIFUL tooo...

  • Oh my.....this song says IT ALLLLLLLLLL

  • I'm in love and you?.

  • Thank you, Thank You!! Excellent song! Here, I was looking for the 1966 "A man and a Woman" movie theme song and clicked on this. MAN!, did I get pleasantly surprised. I can't believe this song was not heard of more. I am now going to buy the CD! Thanks to you and U2. ~~~~Mark

  • @SuperDutyDieselMark Be patient with How To Dismantle an Atomic Bomb - it's an AMAZING album but it takes some growing on you - like most U2 albums. Prepare to be BLOWN AWAY!

  • Masterpiece, the song, your video... near to the images I had inside of me , while listening. thanks.

  • Love U2 and this clip... A man and a woman.. Just the greatest

  • Your video is really well made

    and U2 is awesome!

  • My Favorite of U2

  • i dun need any kind of drug....to get my self high....whn i m lisening to this song....cheers....

  • amo esta musica noa sei como descre-la, ......

  • Una bonita canción, simple pero hermosa. Sin sentimientos complicados.... solo protección?

    Muy acertada la elección de los actores para el video clip, ya que no son ni bellezones ni super modelos de otro mundo, lo que hace que cualquiera pueda sentirse mejor identificado con ellos.

    Gracias por la canción.

    -Apasha-

  • Refreshing song

  • Thanks for sharing Spacejunc! one of my favorite songs!!

  • none knows it..it's the most romantic song of U2..and my favorite song...when he says.."you can run from love and if it is really love it 'll find you" ...*.* i love it

  • Now this really sucks.

    Especially how you cut it at the end.

  • Great vid!

  • this song reminds me of a man I once knew...

    Diese mystische Distanz zwischen Männer und Frauen wird für immer unüberbrückbar sein. Egal, wer man ist, wo man ist, wie alt man ist. Und trotzdem ist es einen Versuch wert.

    We are not creatures of circumstance,

    we are creators of circumstance. T. Palmieri

  • Every time I heard the part "everything is not ok"," I was reminded of another tune. Finally just realized the resemblance to the melody in the Beatles "A Day In The Life." It's been driving me nuts.

  • This song is deep, I still can't seem to get all the words out.....

  • This guy almost sounds like the singer from ringside. When I first heard it, that's who I thought it was.

  • the mysterious distance between man and a woman ...one of the beauties of life

    a beautiful video for a beautiful song

  • Awesome!

  • piękne to.......

  • How can I hurt when I'm holding you? I can't wait until the day a woman makes me feel that way. Bono is a lucky man.

  • great video!!!! wow....

  • Que daria por escucharla en vivo, si ya pudo escuchar "electrical storm" en vivo, esta tambien merece lo mismo.

  • stop spamming

  • cancion es muy elegante, Me gusta U2, es me favorita!!!

  • MacDonald's is everywhere ;)

  • Thanks ☺

  • Probably one of the most romantic songs of all time - and it's hardly even known about - only hardcore U2 fans know it. One of my all time favorites.

  • @twochordcool agreeedd... totally my favorite song by u2

  • @mUslcfrEAk It's gorgeous. Check out "Drowning Man" by them - that is another gorgeous song and possibly my favorite - but it's so hard because they have so many good ones. Hands That Built America and Birdland come to mind.

  • @twochordcool Totally agree...fantastic song!!!!!!!! ( And, fun to sing to...!!)

  • @earthalien77 Total gorgeousness, ain't it?

    "And you're the one there's noone else"

    :)

  • @twochordcool I agree :) 

  • @twochordcool Hardcore? Dumbass, the song is from their 2004's album - hardly smth id call hardcore.

  • @xTroop18546x The song is BURIED on HTDAAB - and MOST casual listeners of U2 DO NOT know it - I'm talking about people that hear Beautiful Day, One and Where the Streets Have No Name on the radio. In that respect I stand by what I said - only HARDCORE U2 fans, fans that know all their music from front to back, know this song.

    I think some of their best songs are the songs that are not well known and aren't on the radio - this is one of those songs.

  • @twochordcool Agreed

  • @twochordcool i know this song cuz i heard it yesterday in mcdonalds

  • De las mejores canciones de esta banda...

  • esta cancion esta de puta madre! (Y)

    viva u2, la mejor banda de todos los tiempos!!

  • LOL - he missed the entire point of the song.

  • This a pure Bossa Nova, beautiful song!

  • Me gusta mucho esta canciòn.

    Es una de las mejores de u2.

  • The only pain is to feel nothing at all....

  • nice video

  • si igual,ami tambien me gustan las canciones que mencionaste del NLOTH..

    y yo agregaria unknown caller...aunque para se honesta me gusta mucho mas sus primeros albunes..he visto incluso que es sus ultimos tours estan tocando canciones que jamas se tocaron en vivo en su epoca como " drowning man"...

    que suerte que tù los podras escuchar y ver en vivo!!! Te felicito!!

    Saludos amigo:)

  • si,una de las mejores canciones del album pero no hay que olvidar crumbs for ur table,original of the species,miracle

    drug...No entiendo como pueden decir que u2 ya no hace buena musica?Por dios acaso estan sordos??

    en fin I LOVE U2!!!!

  • COMPLETAMENTE DE ACUERDO!!!

    How to dismantle an atomic bomb fue un excelente album, y las 5 canciones q mencionas arriba son mis favoritas del album.. en mi opinion mejor q No line on the horizon, aunque tambien tiene sus buenas (magnificent, i'll go crazy if i dont go crazy tonight, breathe).. pero miracle drug y a man and a woman me tocaron personalmente en un tiempo especifico de mi vida.

    bueno, por fin los llegare a ver sep.21 en boston!!! como U2, no hay, y nunca habra otros!

  • such a  beautiful song

    the lyrics are so meaningful =)

  • i love u2 its lyrics are awsum true love leaves beauty innocent :p

  • Cannot remind or sing the melody of this song. So much noise behind.

  • Beautiful song.. :)

  • This actully works i tried it!

    1: think of your crush

    2:Make a heart with your hands

    3:ThenTHen kiss yourr hands while making the heart

    4:Then put your heart where your real heart is

    5:This will only work if you post it on your favorite love song///Tomorrow your crush will kiss you or ask you out

  • My fav U2 song :)

  • This song has a simple but delicious drum and bass. It's one of my favorites of U2.

  • So many many people getting caught up on the word 'sister.' I don't think there's any incest involved, it's pretty simple - Either:

    1. He's using the word "sister" as a synonym for a woman, and that's all. Like "Sista."

    2. It's his wife's or girlfriend's actual younger sister than the protoganist (Not Bono, the character in the song) is addressing.

    There. No incest required.

    Of course, only Paul Hewson knows what he's referring to specifically, but that's my idea :)

  • @dukeon

    sister=woman

  • REBECCALOVEMOM

  • only pain is to feel nothing at all

  • i love this song. so much so so so so much. haha

  • oh my God!!!

    U2 songs are so great....

    I love all of them

  • The only pain is to feel nothing at all!!!

  • He fell in love with a nun.

  • brilliant song!

  • wah. u2 normally have great music videos... give me them in a circle in the studio playing "live" with fancy camera moves and smokey cigs in ashtrays any old time.. this one... eh....

  • I don't know if I should ask this, but ... is this song about incest? I love this song, but I've always wondered that about it.

  • I think that Bono is using "sister" to say the other person is of the same dignity as he. In Song of song which is a love poem that is held as one of the holist books of the Bible says,

    "You are an enclose garden, my sister, my bride."(SOS 3:12)

    Bono has name Song of songs as one of U2 faverite books of the Bible and it seems to have inspired this song.

  • @butterflyhope333

    sister=woman

  • @mauradejablue

    yeah that could be it too :)

  • Odonnellll: Lmao! That's a sharp observation regarding the "sister" mention.

  • ODonnellll.

    It's about a man being faithful to his significant other. And i don't get where one viewer got the idea that he fell in love with a nun. That would not make any sense just like the incest part wouldn't.

  • Is this song about divorce or redemption? Or is it about love in general, cuz this song is epic.

  • Can someone please explain to me why the band didn't release this song as a single? It is arguably one of the best song on the album and truly a masterpiece. This should have been released as a single.

  • hmenon2003: that is a good point. I think it's better much much better than Vertigo (which was released as a single).

  • no the best song on the album is vertigo

  • Every day, I drive to and from school listening to this song on repeat.

  • I had blasting from car the other day and people were trying to find the station to listen...I really want this song to be played at my future wedding..I cannot tell you why this song is so great!

  • lovely song¡

  • This song is perfect. It's in my top 10 U2 songs.

  • I'm sorry but this woman is gorgeous

  • dont be sorry, be happy she s gorgeous

  • świetna piosenka

  • Simplismente maravilhosa!!!!

  • My music!!!

  • Just got dumped by my girl, because she likes more than one guy :-( I thought she is the best, I would do anything, and the more I did the worse it has gotten. Well at least at this painful time when my heart is torn apart - a bit of solace, at least there's U2 with this healing song, that soothes my pain. As they sing: "And you're the one, there's no-one else

    who makes me want to lose myself" I guess I lost myself but this song gets me back on my feet. Thanx Bono!

  • bro be a man must be thousands that have a great ass out there..be a man and walk away

  • thanx bro, was difficult but I walked away without turning back....... I ammmmmmmmmmmmmm the man!

  • I hear you sisounek.I'm your opposite.I loved my BF with all my heart, mind and soul and I would never hurt him.But he kept doubting me, and though I assured him with all my patience,love and understanding,he only got worse.He started investigating, analyzing and measuring my every word, expression, movement;Eventually he lost it, and without any logic or proof he concluded I cheated on him and took off, leaving me with huge bills for a dream that we planned together.

    Sending prayers your way.

  • Thanx for your comment, I think we have common things to talk about, if you dont mind, you can email me at sisounek at gmail com

  • No one cares.

  • Bleh opinion :P

  • just great, i love metal music, but this song is so f.... great ¡¡¡¡¡¡

  • Very nice song

  • WATCH MORE TV

    SPREAD THE WORD~ U2

  • No es una cancion comercial, pero es buenaza...

  • Totalmente deacuerdo... la mejor cancion del "How to dismantle....."

  • An Atomic Bomb

  • Wonderful music, wonderful words...

    Us are the best...
