  • It's all about marting Luther king

  • the verse that begins 'early morning..' is based on mrtin luther king jr wen he was shot

  • The whole song is based on MLK. He's the "one man" coming in the name of love

  • ur still a virgin

  • I love U2,but why is Bono singing about racial problems in the USA when Catholics and Protestants are killing eachother in Ireland?

  • pff! silly, this song was made during punk rock era, of course their was still alot of racism! i cant remember what time period it was... was it the 80's or the late 90's? (when the misfits trial brought back punk rock for a few years)

  • Bono sang about that too

  • That's right! Unless the country you come from is 100% perfect and free from strife, you are only allowed to do covers of "Proud to Be An American!"

    Come on, seriously?

  • @clwilu94 he has sung songs about that too. Sunday bloody sunday

  • maybe because he refers to that in sunday bloody sunday???

  • What a great song! A powerful messae too!

    In the nammmeee of loveeeeeee!!!

  • when i look up the stars at night i think of this song

  • no, the time was wrong-they didn't have a lot of time to edit. They say "early morning" ...they've acknowledged it tho

  • 2:40 WRONG date

  • What The Fuck are you talking about wrong date he was assassinated on April 4th 1968. You retard.

  • 25 years ago....wow...the best then and the best now

  • how can u hate bono?

  • i dont no any one who dosn't like this song

  • luv them 4 ever!

  • classic.

  • U2 4 LIFE!

  • Music IS Meaning, but however a song can have many meanings the prominent one in this song is Racial Rights!

  • Timeless song, amazing group. Can't believe I was 8 when this came out. Back in the days when there was an MTV. Another song from the same year was Foreigner's "I want to know what love is". 1984. Wow!

  • Wow, this Foreigner's song is also great, but I think I used to be more addicted to pride xD

    I used to listen to I Want To Know What Love Is when I was in love to someone.

  • One man betryaed with a kiss is a reference to Christ

  • who did jesus betray?

  • Nobody, it was Judas that betrayed Jesus with a kiss.

  • Jesus was betrayed by Judas, He was betrayED with a kiss, he didn't betray with a kiss.

  • this song is one of my favorite ones!!!

    yeah!! U2 rocks!!!

  • MITICO BONO

  • Song is about resistance and its obviously referring to many different people and times of resistance not just one person.

  • screw the meaning this music is awesome

  • j'adore cet chanson ..sono italiano e meridionale alor ce ma fe?

  • I cry when I hear this song... the music and the lyrics are literally beautiful!

  • I  completely agree with you.

  • Thank for understanding me!

  • ¡¡¡Nos vemos en el Camp Nou!!!

  • why are people arguing about the meaning its an excellent song with a good meaning it is probably about WW1 soldiers MLK and jesus but anyone of them is great

  • Beautiful song.

  • Perfect

  • isn't it about martin luther king?

  • yeah it is

  • The song is about MLK not Jesus and Jesus isn't spelled with 2 s

  • Comment removed

  • I hate it when people try to "force the song onto Jesus", I mean, maybe he sings a part about Jesus? But that doesn't make it a friggin' Jesus song xD Accept that MLK is also in it!!! And the soldiers of the first WW :D

  • Why can't it refer to all of them? Why does a song have to have one uniform meaning? Why can't a song have a different meaning to everyone?

  • That's my point.

  • Why can't it be all of those? Why does the song have to have one uniform meaning? Can't it just mean whatever it means to you?

  • ahhaha sepoy was a indian soldier dude that was basically a merc for england

  • i thought sepia was a soldier of india...wtf is that gotta do with this?

  • That brownish color is sepia. Which is kinda annoying...

  • Thank you Jesuss

    My hads tied body bruised and he gave himselve for humanity.

    he come in the name of love

  • From 2:02 to 2:18 .... you can see hear Bono humming "something" in the backgroud , which is barely audible .Moroever these vocals havent been mentioned anywhere else.

    Is there anyone else who has noticed there ??? Can he/she tell me what it is

  • He says "Nobody likes you"

  • no he says "Nobody like you"

  • ah that sounds better lol

  • I dnt rate on the video! I rate on the sng! and I like it!

  • Amazing...How many songs are actually about something meaningfull, let alone are great music (perhaps not some of those christian rock bands lol).

  • May god have mercy on all the souls who dwell on this song being anything good for all who do will have a curse put upon them by YOGER JE DOGOIE.

  • what? read the lyrics.

  • go fuck yourself u pyscho

  • Wow, maybe it's time to pull that dildo out of your ass...

  • love this part at the end of the u2 movie rattle&hum hes talkin bout his people in ireland how there was an irish revolution going on its sweet oh yah GO IRELAND!!!!(and kinda obvious im irish lol)
