The harmonization between Eno, Edge, and Bono at 4:18 never fails to send chills down my spine. The chord the three of them create at that moment is just divine.
Bono y su voz angelical... en cualquier version, con cualquier instrumento, en cualquier escenario... jamas dejara de ser la perfecta cancion llamada ONE
Love Eno, never seen the attraction of U2. The only thing they've ever done worth listening to is 'Vertigo' as far as I'm concerned & it took them 25 years to get to that. Eno was a genius & visionary from day numero uno.
He sings and plays on a lot of albums he produces. He sings backup vocals on the Talking Heads albums he's produced. Notably, you can hear him distinctly on "Once in a Lifetime"
@SoccerRockNY In a series of fantastic rock albums from the 1970's, Here Come The Warm Jets (1973), Taking Tiger Mountain By Strategy (1974), Another Green World (1975) and Before And After Science (1978), plus 801 Live (1976), he played the off the wall singer/songwriter game, and very well too. It was really only in the 1980's that he focused on producing rather than his own musical career. If you like real quirky rock, check these out. They are all tremendous.
theres somthing really magical and uplifting in this song it just has the power to completely change your mood just played it three times in a row and fell much better then before.
caro Alfredo, quando la musica la si ascolta con tutto noi stessi, inizia a far parte della nostra essenza, e riesce ad accompagnare momenti particolari della nostra vita. poi questo pezzo, interpretato da artisti con la A maiuscola è davvero fantastico.
@96debby Daccordo con te mia cara amica...è una delle più belle canzoni...inoltre, per quanto mi riguarda, ha segnato momenti importanti ed indelebili della mia vita...Incredibile come la musica abbinata alle esperienze personali faccia letteralmente rivivere certe impressioni...
what would this song sound like without the 100 piece orchestra? what a joke. people are like sheep. Try sing this one in the shower, go ahead. Can't? I wonder why?
to say eno isnt a musician means u r either too young or just too stupid to know better. how does a man put out the amt of albms that man has with all the artists he has wrkd w/ incl fripp bowie t heads roxy music etc & not be a musician? he toured in early 70s w/ roxy music for their first 2 albums & has done an entire tour with fripp & does much more than turn knobs & push buttons in a control rm. the man is extremely incredible & before u say ignorant things u should do some homework.
@darthkards i agree with what you said, and besides that, u2 wouldnt be who they are if it wasnt for brian eno. same thing with david bowie, coldplay, etc... he is visionaire
@darthkards Eno is more of a musician than Bono or The Edge... not to denigrate him, but the creativity that runs through Eno's little finger dwarfs the creative energy in all of U2's recorded works combined.
@darthkards indeed, but Mr. Eno has stated that he is a 'non-musician' to distinguish himself from 'musicians.' He also works in visual art. New Music America Festival, 1979, Mr. Eno said, "I can neither read nor write music, and I can't play any instruments really well, either. You can't imagine a situation prior to this where anyone like me could have been a composer. It couldn't have happened. How could I do it without tape and without technology?" Lately, he called himself 'a synthesist.'
It was early in U2's career when The Edge started appearing in public with headgear. Then I noticed he was NEVER without a hat. That was too telling. Myself, like Eno before me, started going bald at age 19 and have NO interest in headgear. Some men are ashamed of their baldness. Others are not.
There should be no reason to be ashamed....bald is beautiful....I have been bald and enjoyed it-shaved my head...my wife made me grow it back but I have a receding hairline-and if I go bald-I will NOT WEAR A HAT...all the time
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I have written alot of songs-but I wasn't at the right place sucking off whoever to get fame-but my stuff is as good as anyones-Eno is a non-musican but still makes music...I am a musician and make art....
aah the beano....I came here for him too, and I'm in love all over again (note to self;find paw paw nego blowtorch) Bono aint the greatest singer in the world but I think this is really his song and he does it well. Fairly prosaic arrangement - and what's with the Great Fire of London looking backdrop?
Before I saw this video, all I had was the audio version which is AMAZING enough, especially when Bono starts singing and the audience is wayyyy louder than he is. Awesome!
Am I the only one that noticed that Bono has the hat and Edge has the glasses... while Eno isn't "behind the scenes" or on keyboards - but upfront singing?!? Awesome. Beautiful. Wow.
It always makes me tear up, if not cry. It is probably the hormones, but I don't care, I love it!
Until today I did not understand the words. Today I searched and found another copy of the lyrics and read them again. I get it this time. The last time I read them it must have been a bad transcription. It is about a relationship that has gone bad. Been there, got the scars.
es una de las mejores versiones de este tema pues en esta version acustica y acompañada por esta orquesta sinfonica realmente lo hace unico porque sin duda es muy melancolico.....
No. You've missed my point entirely. The American public and it's collective opinion of what constitutes vocal "talent" is "nuts" as you say. I'm quite sane, actually. As an unkown, Bono would not win American Idol.
It's true that the meaning of One can be misunderstood, but even Bono has admitted that the fans of this song have misinterperated it...but he also admits that they have not interperated it in a bad way. One Rules.
"It amazes me when people tell me they played it at their wedding or for comfort at a funeral. I go to myself, 'Are you crazy? It's about breaking up.'" (Bono in Los Angeles Times, 08/08/04)
I HAVE FINALLY FOUND THIS VERSION OF ONE. IT IS BY FAR THE BEST EVER!!!! DAMN GOOD, POWERFUL SONG. ONE OF THE BEST EVER!!!!
