[xThePinkFloydx]

to many great songs to pick one as the best, "one" was a long time favourite of mine, then came the album; all that you cant leave behind, just so many great songs.....

[NewBrain01]

Dreamed I saw a desert rose Dress torn in ribbons And in bows Like a siren she calls (to me) Set me alight We'll punch a hole right through the night Everyday the dreamers die To see what's on the other side She is Liberty And she comes to rescue me Hope Faith, her vanity The greatest gift is gold

[zeedevastator]

one of the best songs from U2!....agree with me?

[0bobmar]

@zeedevastator for sure! I actually first heard the song from the "infamous Stringdusters" . I've been a U2 fan for a while but totally forgot this song. Check out the "infamous stringdusters" version. They are an amazing bluegrass band. Amazing music.

[zeedevastator]

@0bobmar thx for your answer! thanks for your music tip,i enjoyed it =).....i would say bluegrass is not bad ;)....

[WickedEVZ]

@zeedevastator I agree!

[SteelHorseRiders]

@zeedevastator . . . . yep !!

[kkrueger4075]

@zeedevastator

Yep! One of the best U2 songs ever! Gonna have it played at my funeral when I die!

[zeedevastator]

@kkrueger4075 realy? are u serious about that? i think thats not a bad idea ;)

[SuperRod88]

Sleep comes like a drug in God's country!

[stefano44000]

I love this song. They are great

[YANK2012]

So agree too... we need peace in our border cities..

[Emersonclod]

this album is the best album ever

[litosusy]

This is a real good music.... I love this song... from Juarez Chih Mex

we need to follow God´s words here in our city

[LoyalJasperHale]

This was the ending song in Three Kings (1999)

[lui505]

Desert rose

Dreamed I saw a desert rose...

[pantalones222]

@lui505 Eric Johnson.... hahaha

[specialgravy]

how can anyone dislike this song is beyond me...they must be sunday teatime chart show listeners!!!!

[richardmbowman]

Excellent song from a great album. Few records, before or since, are this good. The Joshua Tree knocked me out. I played that record all day every day for months. And, it's still one of my favorites and one of the all time best recordings.

[moodyblue1964]

Sadly a song that the band don't seem to value anymore due to it's lack of live performances.

[0458FEO]

this album is the greatest for driving to vegas thruogh the desert, going to sin . they look so cool in that picture on joshua tree album , simply chillin,i wish i was like that, i will be dammit. lets form a band, any one in o.c. ca.. reply .i can get free rehearsal rooms, no joke.peace.

[raydenthetullgod]

@0458FEO Dude, you got me so inspired I have goosebumps. I'd totally do it except I live clear out in BFE. Good luck with your band...DO NOT LET THAT DREAM DIE UNTIL YOU ARE ON STAGE.

[MBOYA22]

I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED THIS BEAUTIFUL SONG SINCE THE DAY I BOUGHT THIS ALBUM IN 1987.

[e30m31989]

Love these boys.

[metalrat9000]

Man......Beautiful lyrics, melody.

[jeffscharpf]

2:10 best guitar playing ever :)

[muse19882009]

@jeffscharpf

I LOVE THE EDGE Best Guitar Player on Earth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! damn!!!

[TRXMoose]

@jeffscharpf U2 has some of the best and most interesting guitar sounds in the world, that can appeal to everyone. Unlike anything else.

[jalynch67]

asther113, are you forgetting that they had at least 3 albums out before that? And there was a Live at Red Rocks before there ever was a San Diego. No offense

[ProfesorMacOnline]

Nice sound...

[asther113]

I was there, San Diego-U2 was born, the musical journey began.

[avzeolla]

is this not the most unique guitar sound ever? -- - the backdrop for absolutely amazing lyrics. that solo is ridiculous.

"she's liberty and she comes to rescue me."

yes

[nosaj1939]

dress torn in ribbons and bows,great lyrics.great bass line,great guiter licks just a great song really.

[lizzi1572]

3 ppl missed the "like" button :D

[mountainhigh88]

87' january new year new release all the new possibilities 2set us free

[putamadreyadejate]

In my opinion this is one of the greatest songs ever written.

[MrBlaklight7]

Burned by the fire of Love! What a message for the USA.

[Grightsta1]

This song is timeless as the american southwest.... 

[RegLeachFan]

may 29th Winnipeg.... fuck yeeah!

[truthserum2000]

I love this song, I made a video for God Pt II, check it out ...hope you enjoy it youtube.com/watch?v=1_NctqNddk­k

[ddraguti]

This one is one of their timelless songs. The best on this album definitely and btw one of their best songs ever. The Edge's guitar rythm in this song is something you cannot forget. If to complete a list of their 5 best songs ever this one would be in.

[seantbuckley88]

two fuckin wankstains took the time to slag this-get a fuckin life!!

[jaytv777]

my fave u2 song.made me play this beat till my kit got wonky.great original percussion..xxx

[popsracer18]

2 people never have been at god's coutry.

[xxleandraxx1]

I love U2, they make me feel proud to be part Irish ^ ^

[Colossus3999]

Sleep does come like a drug

[RoShamBohhh]

Songs this good are so rare.

[TheGoier]

the joshua tree is real music!

[thyczko2]

In God's Country is a Great Song

[rosie3814]

@thyczko2 I think it's U2's best song....although I have a soft spot for "two hearts beat as one"

[superman9905]

Good song!

[pdbordelon]

Beautiful song!

[alienmind2007]

the most powerful song i've ever heard, it makes me go nuts.

[Guigley]

This song makes me want to drive at 90mph through God's country.

[coltsuperocean10]

...from an age when U2 were a great band!! They soon turned into a pathetic bunch of cocksucking cunts!

[EKpaul1]

@coltsuperocean10 I hear what you are saying but understand why they had to re-invent themself or they would have died out. A bit of sell-out if you ask me but guess it pays the bills :(

[Shaun17170]

I'm Half French and I love this! Have ine the album was released!

[bansheewhiskey]

u2 rules

[TheMerseyBoy]

superb album and band - dub lads and musics in the blood

[TheSnakeoilmerchant]

Can't believe there are even two people that dislike this song. They must be French or something.

[XxchrisDxX]

On a nice sunny morning, waking up and getting ready to do whatever... this song is what you want to listen too. Set you up for the day

Thank God for U2!

[Vladhill1]

Essa canção me remete às alturas... Deus existe e está presente em todos nós!

[jakovasaur]

Henry Rollins can blow me!

[wickedwetcat]

Edge wasn´t good looking, honestly when he was young, but now, WOW, he ´s hot as hell

[generationaluv]

@wickedwetcat my sife thnks he is the hottest ever! (then and now!) I think so ,too...well, at least his guitar and singing!

[bltffratski]

aviadmei , I couldnt agree more!!! Joshua tree is U2'scrowning glory, came close to it in rattle and hum but there will never be another joshua tree!!!

powerfull music!!!! turn it up and give your neighbours the full watts !!! hahaha

[generationaluv]

@bltffratski ...& the critics rated this ablum as one of the best in pop/rock history. every song is magic!

[itsmejunky]

I love this song. so powerful. i love this whole record to be honest..

[A64JAMES]

U2's newest album is not the best the older ones are the best.

[fastguild2007]

I lived in Joshua Tree, near the Monument, when this came out - Such an awesome 'outdoor' album. Used to listen to this while driving through the Joshua/yucca tree desert....GREAT DAYS INDEED!!!

[MBOYA22]

1987 was one of The greatest times in the history of Music. Slippery When Wet(Bon Jovi, Appetite For Destruction (Guns N Roses) Girls, Girls,Girls(Motley Crue) Bad( Michael Jackson) and The best of them all ,The Joshua Tree by u2. I was 17 and I rocked them all but Im still rocking u2 and this is my favorite song.

[iojoTV]

This is one of my favorite songs from any group. The imagery is haunting.

[TheKKIsBack]

How can one band make so many good tracks on one album, its re-donkilous

[DTL3317]

The Joshua Tree = Masterpiece

[thyczko2]

well behave people rarely make the history books ;)

[todd291022]

Great song from a band that will never get old.

[PSNmickrob]

deffo the best album by far

[estrellanortena14]

REAL MUSIC!

[carlosweber]

Fantástico U2!

[airsquad1]

This songs Vibrates at Pure LOVE,You can always count on this song 2 make Y extra HAPPY.Vibrational Prayer,''EVERYONE on MOTHER-EARTH FEELS LOVE and PEACE. ALL4ONE++LOVE4ALL

[dualityofman999]

Youth is for those who radiate under the sun, dying is for the stagnant one. There is a wicked woman who waits for all to help accelerate our inevitable fall. I want to walk slowly, I want to hear the sweet voices of the eloquently spoken. I want to know when to run & when to lie still but my mind won't stop racing up that wicked, sinful hill. -A. Somberg

[beppetoer1950]

AND MY GRANDSON OF 9 YEARS LOVES U2 ALSO!!!! HE WENT WITH ME TO THE CONCERT OF U2 YN BRUSSELS , HE WILL NEVER FORGETR THIS EVENING, IT WAS AMAZING

[generationaluv]

This song sums up U2 in their very essence, sound and message! ~ the best song, if it is possible to even choose from such a volume of greatness!

[melinahewson]

Have no words.

[softhotty]

My favorite U2 song todate.

[ketankshukla]

"Magnificent" should have been on Joshua Tree. It would have sounded great with Bono's 1987 voice!!!!

[jdb1a1]

A few years back, I was in Palm Springs for a conference and I ventured up to Joshua Tree to check it out. I could literally FEEL this song all around me. It was amazing. This song FEELS like the desert! This is my all-time favorite U2 song.

[Auntkekebaby]

One of my favorite songs of this great album.

[exills]

@Auntkekebaby I agree with you man

[exills]

Respond to this video... Was at Bono's house last week in Killiney rang bell but he was away ..maybe in God's country?

[UFOS4]

Joshua Tree will always be my favorite from U2. Always.

[AFanofABBA]

One of my favorites off The Joshua Tree. Always thought this song was a little short. Love the guitars here.

[ArrJayEss]

@mollysangelique Nog iemand uit België? 

[MrNewpatel]

@11joshman was a bit suprised about it too but know abides hope, faith and love which never fails:)

[11joshman]

why does the lyrics say i stand with the sons of kane?

[rosie3814]

@11joshman I think it it's I stand with the sons of Cain. Some say the human race are the sons of Cain since Abel died before having children. So we are all sons of Cain. Some religious conspiracy theroists think that the sons of Cain a really sons of satan.

[rosie3814]

@rosie3814 It's just speculation on my part of course

[rosie3814]

Of course it's just speculation on my part

[softhotty]

My Favorite U2 Song of all time.

[lgwelsh1]

There was nothing that sounded like this in 1987, it was in a class all it's own. This is U2's greatest record in my opinion.

[lola9343]

@lgwelsh1 Yes. This was a storm.

[mickwillie1]

dreamers want the evil to stop.two many satan gangs to throw a stick at.Golden Child awaits you.Christ.watch radio ga ga radio go go,but mercury 2nd planet ,try the 3rd ,Christ.

[smithy2402]

Ireland is God's Country...

[FriedChickenofDeath6]

@smithy2402 Sometimes I really wonder if God lives there...

[MichaelD8393]

@smithy2402 and U2 is God's Band.

[smithy2402]

@MichaelD8393

Nice One...Michael...

I won't even try to add to that...

[MichaelD8393]

@smithy2402 thanks and happy new year :)

[smithy2402]

@MichaelD8393

Happy New Year...Michael...

To You and Yours...

[twistedNEKO]

i think this is the most beautiful song in the world.

[davgabe]

The ultimate rock and roll band U 2

[sunny1kiss]

Although this song is dedicated to the Statue of Liberty, I believe that its about our desert; here in Arizona. Have always thought so. I've been burned by the fire. The desert is the fire. When I die, I want this song played at my funeral. Have lived in the desert plane a long time.

[Ollfie]

Great Credits from Three Kings

[ZerrickiShadow]

@Ollfie Good movie.

[rcameronswindsor]

@Ollfie i've loved this album for years just saw three kings and came to listen to this song fucking bomb

[bl1gh7y]

@rcameronswindsor weird, that was the film i saw the other night too but i forgot what film it was and the only thing i could remmember was this song, just had to google some of the lyrics to find out what it`s title was

[BeyondNeptune]

wow, at 0:11, they remind us that sometimes powerful sounds can come from strings and not just our mouths

[tomberoickk]

What is the year of this album??

[felixu2fan]

@1987

[PeteMachalek]

@tomberoickk 1987 - My sophomore & junior year in college. A TRULY TIMES-DEFINING ALBUM.

[diegolivingdetroit]

One of my favorite songs,period!!!

[SoCal80s]

"THE UNFORGETTABLE BAND'!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[HolyRoller478]

This was the song at the end of the movie "Three Kings" with Mark Wahlberg and George Clooney, right? I love this song! I just can't believe how short it is though. They've done some long classic hits but this has to be a short hit. Wow!

[purocartel1234]

me gusta mas en la version de video del rattle and hum

[lU2stigch]

@strangeuniverse1 no they say it in U2 by U2 thez just went out to take some photos and corbjin wanted to make a photo with the joshua tree :-)

[sunny1kiss]

This is the song that I want to be played at my funeral!!! DO YOU ALL HEAR ME??>?? 

[MBOYA22]

@sunny1kiss I REALIZE THAT IS A UNDERSTATEMENT TO SAY THAT THIS IS ONE OF THE GREATEST ALBUMS EVER

[strangeuniverse1]

I thought this was a good alblum that sure received a lot of airplay but I was not blown away by it. I love songs like this one which was a hit but did not get an enormous amount of airplay like the other songs on the alblum.

[DavieS993]

Britian rules music. Period.

[igott]

@DavieS993 Agreed, but U2 would not be an example of this as they are Irish.

[DavieS993]

@igott Still part of the British Isles ;)

The Irish have produced some great bands, Thin Lizzy were awesome overlooked and under rated imo.

[DavieS993]

@igott the Edge was born in Essex and his parents were Welsh.

[igott]

@DavieS993 Haha nice try!

[DavieS993]

@igott nice try at what? telling the truth? The Edge is from Britain and Ireland is like it or not part of the British Isles. Let me re-phrase my original sentence then,, the British Isles rule music ;)

[xXcr97Xx]

Beautiful song. Slightly overlooked though. It is one of my favorite U2 songs of all time!

[mjw9363]

This is in the top 25 albums of all times....in my top 10....I am proud to live in the region that inspired this song and the Album..the American Southwest where the Joshua trees are plenty!!

[amstell13]

@mjw9363 , along with Physical Graffiti(Led Zeppelin), Electric Ladyland(Jimi Hendrix), Stickey Fingers(Rolling Stones), Abbey Road(Beatles), Machine Head(Deep Purple), Disraeli Gears(Cream), Them Crooked Vultures(Them Crooked Vultures), Who Are You(The Who).

[hookywooky]

Edge's oh so brief guitar solo is oh so orgasmic.

[RandyCasey]

An enormously underrated song. One of the best in the canon.

[ColbertNation88]

Beautiful song... Went great in three kings.

[msssorum]

one of my favourites songs of the album and of the band

[roberto20roberto]

Es el mejor disco de ellos sin duda,esa es mi opinion.En la epoca que salio no se me olvidara en la cantidad de sitios que oia las canciones.Y es uno de los discos que mas recuerdos me trae del pasado.Este Album y el Doble de unos años despues de lo mejor de U 2.

[sunny1kiss]

This is the song that I want played at my funeral, when ever that is!

[smithdvr]

i have seen U2 so many times live and i dont give a shit what anybody says.

they are the greatest rock n roll group in the world.

there sound ,there music and how they have changed there image over the past 30 years.

[promotionstudio]

i wish modern people listened to this. R&B is rubbish.

[DavieS993]

@promotionstudio where are you from then? 1874?

[alienmind2007]

for me the last minute of that song is the most powerful jam i've ever heard. love it.

[tapper137]

finnaly after 6 years of looking i found the best song ever i been w8ing 6 years for this song of three kings credits go to IMDB and BadLtSalmon

[blahblahnigger]

well thats where i first geard this song the three kings credits (great movie) and i love the song.

[AdyPole]

Just as 'Mozambique' was on Bob Dylans desire, this is the overlooked gem on Joshua tree. A beautiful little ditty.

[TheChoice264]

@AdyPole I don't believe this song is overlooked at all. My vote goes to red hill mining town.
