[5d4e]

<3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 Stay, and of corse U2! it's my favourite group

[alliwanttosay1]

Adelaide deserves a stringless violin and autotuneless Kesha with this kind of altitude ...

[AchtungRose]

I love this..

stay, staying, coming, stay the night the day will trust, stay..3 oclock..I love you Bono, I love U2

[Sonnymaestrini]

guitar totally untuned ://

[rayoflightcrystal]

he s soooo handsome !!

[tiff70]

wow...tuni...or lack off should i say

[aekoriginale21]

adam so cool..

[hellyfornication]

wow bono on guitar, that's unique. i don't if doesn't play correct, like i don't his voice isn't that good nowadays. they're u2 and they bring their feeling in their music. great

[208blues]

wow, Adelaide crowd, "get a life".... literally

[survivorproject]

That's the problem with hollow body guitars they say ....feedback!

Like U2's former band name XD

[LostShadow901]

Adam is the best :D smoking,chilling and smiling ;D damn he is good ;D

[SireAtwode]

Some roadie got fired... I know the feeling of getting up in front of people with a guitar that's out of tune. You kind of want to play quiet and you get unsure about which strings are in tune. Then you try to play on the high strings or the low strings...it stinks. I was at the U2 show in Chicago in 2009 and they got up to play "Bad" and the Edge was waaay out of tune. I was bummed because that is my favorite song!

[SireAtwode]

Some roadie got fired...

[wagsteiner]

for me is the guitar he had problems ... came a sound horrible!

For this test two times before ...

[pol4383]

God Bono you need guitar lessons, please leave it to the Edge. (I am a bit U2 fan) Not a very good version of this song.

[bonosfriend]

@pol4383

Bono has never claimed to be a guitar player.. He would much rather leave it for the Edge... Let the man enjoy himself.. Listen to that voice for god sakes!!!

[lonkylaine]

Does not have the magic touch of Sydney shows

[sugarelli74]

Wonderful...But..Don't play guitar!!!Please!!

[gman1114]

Guess the band just taught him basic chords. Yes, stick to your vocals.

[gibso12]

Typical Adelaide crowd lifeless and boring why would they bring the 360 tour to Adelaide with crowds like this

[tplamont]

I was in that crowd and I don't remember it being lifeless and boring.

The people who made this recording miked up the band, not the crowd.

[randall883]

@gibso12 hahahah! U'RE FUCKLY RIGHT!

[rickybigstone]

@gibso12 I perfectly agree with you! what a boring crowd...

[gibsonvox]

i agree with lesassassins..

[lesassassins]

when U2 was a good band

[dovesfan]

and if you shout, i'll only hear you... possibly my favourite lyrics of all time, makes my eyes water for some reason

[mmaxsters]

2009/2010, biggest band on the planet u2

[r0ck3r1980]

does anyone know if there's a live non-acoustic version of Stay on youtube?

why do they never play the normal version of this song ?

[HacjienceYukona]

@r0ck3r1980 This is probably the closest to the original out there.

[pescofetedral]

Linda música. U2 segue sendo tudo de bom.

[Kippe1702]

green light, 7-11 you stop in, for a pack of cigaretts, you don't smoke, don't even want to, hey now, check your change dressed up, like a car crash, your wheels are turning but your upside-down You say when he hits you, you don't mind, because when he hurts you, you feel alive, hey now, is that what it is? Red light, grey mourning you stumble, out of a hole in the ground, a vampire, or a victim, it depends on who's around, you used to stay, to watch the adverts,

[Kippe1702]

You could lip synch, to the talk show host And if you look, you look through me And when you talk, you talk at me And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing. If I could stay, then the night would give you up. Stay, and the day would keep its trust. Stay, and the night would be enough. Faraway, so close Up with the static and the radio. With satellite television You can go anywhere: Miami, New Orleans London, Belfast and Berlin.

[Kippe1702]

And, if you listen, I can't call. And, if you jump, you just might fall. And, if you shout, I'll only hear you. If I could stay, then the night would give you up. Stay, and the day would keep its trust. Stay with the demons you drowned. Stay with the spirit I found. Stay, and the night would be enough. Three o'clock in the morning It's quiet, there's no one around, Just the bang and the clatter As an angel runs to ground. Just the bang and the clatter...

[Kippe1702]

...As an angel hits the ground.

In conclusion, a beautiful song!

[flevobirdy]

greetings from holland

[flevobirdy]

[7RedBass]

Very very bad guitars :-/

[karlostkd13]

@7RedBass

Bono just sing...please!

Break that guitar

[DownSouth94]

this is a great song

[cookamidgera]

this is not in adelaide but sydney!!

[zenodoros]

Nah mate, the second Sydney show may have been released professionally, but there was also a pro-shot Adelaide concert from Zoomerang. That's where this is from. I think it's a better concert than the Sydney one personally, but I might just be biased!

[tommywm24]

it's footy park, adelaide

[abbythatsme]

Its probably because noone could see him. They either thought it was the band playing to a vocal backing track or 'sleepy' from the local production of snow white & the 7 dwarfs. Back at the local production, the other remaining actors keep saying where the f&*k is Sleepy?The actress playing Snow White simply replied, "who cares, he is a precocious little tw@t" Ps he is a also c$nt

[quique2310]

Guess "Stay" was too new for most people they didnt knew it at that time, no one was singing and didnt got much excited with the title...

Nice performing!!
