  • Should have thrown Jim Morrison in there somewhere.................

  • Rock 'n Roll: The most brutal, ugly, desperate, vicious form of expression it has been my misfortune to hear.

    Frank Sinatra

    Kinda strange that he is in this video, isn't it?

  • Best Video: EVER!

  • insane

    

  • Can anyone find James Brown? Am I missing something? I mean, the guy invented a new genre of music.

  • THE BEST VIDEO OF U2

  • FUCK, it gives me the chills this vid, and it's been like 6 months since last time I saw it, i was feeling nostalgic and now I'm happy, nah, euphoric

  • geniale ... magnifica .... impensabile .... semplicemente U2 ....... 4:00 minuto impagabili sorrisi..... grazie .......

  • Great song and clip, songs cant be better because of the clip but they can capture the spirit of the song and reinforce it, great melody lyrics and the edge brilliance as usual.

  • SHOW!!!!!!

    VERY VERY GOOD!!!

  • THE STONE HAS BEEN REMOVED

    "HAPPY EASTER ALL"

  • FALTO NINE INCH NAILS EN EL VIDEO

  • Brilliant

    This is how music videos are supposed to be done.

  • Great clip

  • 1:34 Radiohead

  • thanks so much for the post!!!

  • i think it's kinda cool how the band members appear at random spots in the video, so they're like windows in the skies b/c they're hard to see but when we look through it, we see much more.....it's kinda like a metaphor to life and the music industry...u2 is a gem in the music industry...

  • that's so beautiful :)

  • 3:52 the edge?

  • Brilliant clip. =)

  • Wonderful.

  • LOVE IT !!!!!

  • Love this video! :)

  • Merry Christmas Bono. Thank u.

  • GREATT, EXELLENT,,,

  • You can see Bono, Edge and Larry in this video for brief seconds:

    Bono @ 3:30

    Edge @ 3:52 and 3:58

    The shadowy face in the background @ 3:57 looks like Larry, but I'm not so sure.

    Haven't seen Adam yet after analizing this vid for a couple of times

  • Adam is in the middle of the crowd @ 3:24 & 3:56

    You can see Larry up close @ 3:36

  • Bono @2:15 :D

  • beautiful..

  • Thom Yorke :D

  • Freggin creative. I see Bono in one of the crowd clips, The Edge in another brief clip - (I won't give away the time for those who wanna play along..)

    Didn't see Adam or Larry..yet.

  • esse clipe tem a melhor montagem com vídeos que eu já vi

  • 1:58

    Jack and Meg <3

  • They Ruleeee x)

  • So great ..

  • bob dylan?

  • I'm not usre, but I'm thinking Dylan miht be the figure at about 2:29, filmed from the back, with the spot light backlighting him. Or hey, maybe that's his foot tapping at about 2:58!

    My question is: where are Cab Calloway, Prince and Michael Jackson? I'm surprised I don't see them.

  • actually....I think your right:P

  • @DonyaLane would you want a person who grew up a poor black boy who turned into a rich white girl in your videos? 'nuff said.

  • @DonyaLane

    2:29 Could also be Art Garfunkel, he also to be seen at 0:21.

  • @dankorson Due to that the body language looks like he's playing an instrument, I would have to say that it's not Garfunkel. So I'm still guessing that's Dylan at 2:29. Thanks for replying to my last comment because it caused me, once again, to watch the GREATEST VIDEO EVER! It's a masterpiece on every level.

  • yeah that's right...it's just a song...if you thing it's bad that's not our thing when we like it :)

  • Jeez people its just a song either you like it or you don't.

  • I agree with you totally Miles that Bonoobnoxiousnob is a total idiot. He makes no sense and is clearly jealous of successful people.

  • Jealous of successful people? Hardly since U2 has the more Grammy Awards than any other band in history. So what is to be jealous of?

  • If you think the likes of Bono and Bill Gates deliberately infect young girls with aids then you are more sick than what you seem. You need help little boy - serious help. Twisted little cunt.

  • Q: What do you call a one-eyed, one legged, inbred, cripple, crawling in a Uruguayan sewage drain?

    A: Bonobnoxiousnob

  • Q.: What's the difference between Bonobnoxiousnob and Bono?

    A: Bonobnoxiousnob is a jealous, loser, lowlife, inbred fuckwit and Bono is not.

  • lol !!!! but definetely right!Go go Bono U're the best!

  • HaaHHaa fucking hilarious YOU boner!

  • Layne Staley should be in this video just to respect his very underated talent and simply wot he went through as a musician arguably more talented and had more troubles than cobain

  • Alright don't hate on Cobain just cuz staley's not in the video, its not kurt's fault that laynes not in the video.

  • I've seen this video a hell of a lot now and it's probably the greatest music/image combination I've ever seen. As a music journalist with almost 2000 'classic' CDs in my collection - I don't say that lightly.

  • Comment removed

  • how can they leave out THE SEX PISTOLS , JEFF BUCKLEY

  • what a song so under rated

  • How can they leave out The Stone Roses, Joy Division and The Libertines?

  • They can't have EVERYBODY in. I agree the Stone Roses shouldn't have been left out (or I didn't see them too.) Joy Division were great but don't warrant inclusion at this level. As for the Libertines - you're taking the piss right? I'm guessing you're in your early 20s, that's the only reason you could say the Libertines - because you don't know enough great music. Patti Smith should not be in.

  • Strongly Dissagree, The Libertines I definetly think so, Musicially they were incredible and despite Pete Dohertys drug problems are a very worthy band.

    I also think Patti Smith should be in, especially her early work like "Horses" pure poetry.

  • Comment removed

  • Well if Mary J blige could make it in...

  • And a cover of "my generation" was a stupid way to end "Horses" I always thought lol.

  • I think the live version of 'My Generation' was a later addition on a re-issue and wasn't included on the original release. Still it's an awful cover. I can't stand Mary J Blige too, (the video was made around the time she covered u2s One) but these things are subjective - if it wasn't life and music would be very dull indeed.

  • He/She is right about The Libertines mate.

  • You should start your sentences with;

    In MY opinion.....

  • Johnny Cash,Elvis Presley, Morrisey, The beatles....etc, LOVE THE LYRICS./ I LOVE U2, MY BONO XXXX

  • The Clash, Ramones, Hendrix, Nirvana....many important people! very nice!

  • AAAA yeah the beatles! live, love, the beatles

  • I absolutly love this video

  • y jim morrison donde esta? o bono no quiere q sepan q es su referencia .

  • i DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE ASKING, BUT i DID NOTICE JIM WASN'T INCLUDED....THAT'S PROBABLY GOT SOMETHING TO DO WITH JIMI HENDRIX BEING THERE THOUGH

  • muy buenoooo

  • SUPERB VIDEO!

  • sorry for my ignorance^^...but this video what it is extacly about...a friend told me that it was a song about the singers or musician the had pastd out(diedxd), ...but in the video there are some musician that are still alive...

  • 2:23 richards roling stoned! not harrison.

  • it's wonderful, simply wonderful!!!!

  • This is probably the most beautiful video in the last 20 years, the music, the lyrics and seeing many artists that are not alive any more makes you feel in a particular way... even though i don't listen u2 i have to reconize that what they have achived with this song is awsome.

  • 2:23- 2:24 george harrison i think...

  • anyone knows is here on youtube another version of the video ?

  • Btw, tigerstar1980: I can't believe you forgot Jimi Hendrix ;)

  • Amazing video but it's so sad to think that so many of these artists are now gone!

  • awesome, saw nirvana three times, kurt cobain once and also ramones twice^^ but u2 still rule the world ;)

  • but... where is Freddie???? =/

  • I think 3:05 is Queen. The picture passes very quickly, so you have to pause it to see it. I think the silhouette in the middle is Freddie.

  • Maybe you're right xD thx 4 the advising =)

    P.D: sorry 4 the bad english

  • I just sat and waited forever for a shot with Beatles to show up, and suddenly! There they where. Love this video
