check out Wim Wenders' movies Wings of Desire and Far Away So Close. They took the inspiration for this video from them . They also mashed both movies together to make one and were the basis for the Hollywood version with Nic Cage, City of Angels
Faceva freddo,pioveva...ma la Vittoria era stupenda e ti entra dentro e ti fa sentire viva, libera...Berlino esprime tutto ciò in ogni pezzo,ovunque.e questa canzone lo esprime in ogni nota.
yeah...sorry to whore the comments and all...but, yeah....my favorite song ever as a musician.....what a great message...the whole "city of angels" thing from the "wings of desire" movie from back in the day...when bono has his back to the pretty gal singing their song.......god, what a great vid....peace, all.....Brian.....
This video serves as a great example of how to justify music which stands so supreme in its compilation. hands down, one of my favorite video. A lady syncing to Bono's vocals was a killer idea..
He's been directing movies for more than 30 years, bringing to the screen nearly two dozen German- and English-language full-length features, including 1984's "Paris, Texas," written by Sam Shepard, "Wings of Desire" and "The Buena Vista Social Club." He also brought Bono's "Million Dollar Hotel" to the big screen and transformed the members of U2 into guardian angels for the "Stay (Faraway, So Close!)" video.
I don't know. All I know is that it is based in the movie Far Away So Close of Wim Wenders. From the trilogy Wings Of Desire; Paris, Texas. The trilogy about fallen angels.
O video se baseia no filme de Wim Wenders Far Away So Close, que faz parte de uma trilogia - Wings Of Desire e Paris, Texas.
El ángel de la paz (Friedensengel), Munich el ángel del monumento de la paz está situado en el final céntrico de Prinzregentenstrasse cerca del embarkment del este superior del Isar. Este monumento fue erigido por la ciudad de Munich en 1895-99 para conmemorar el 25to aniversario de la paz de Versalles (que terminó la guerra Francia-Prusiana the1870-71) y en honor del ejército bávaro

Sorry but...This song is taken from my favourite album ever, Zooropa, released in 1993..so..I'm sorry if I've been unkind but...We're talking about U2!!
and it is happening in Berlin the same place where the movie happened. Also the girl is a singer (much like the male in the movie). City of Angels really is different from Wings of Desire the plots that is but its based off Wings.
its based on "wings of desire" aka "Der Himmel über Berlin" its a german film that came out in 1987. City of Angels is based on it. The reason I say that is because they are dressed like the angels from the movie
No caro mio... non è ispirato quel film bensì al "Il Cielo sopra Berlino".. non confondiamo...Anzi, la cantante che vadi nel video e le immagini iniziali sono proprio del fantastico film (di Venders?)
I've been to Victory Column (with the giant statue of the angel) in Berlin. I was standing right under it too... Bitch of a climb though. Great view. It's an amazing structure. I love that my favorite band has been there too. :D
On Jan. 11th, 2007 Solveigh Dommartin died of heart failure. What has that to do with this videoclip, I hear you ask. Well, she's the angel you see in it.
Beautiful song, as entire album "Zooropa"
Wonderful U2 early '90 years...

this song way back 1991.. the video explains from the first their were whisperers explaining there were angels ( do you see the wing of an angel ? )
and then the band watches like angels... even they look like teaching a young band seems like they were guardians or something...
This video what i believed is somehow inspired by the CITY OF ANGELS, Nicolas Cage was an Angel guarding Meg Ryan...
If you feel something like this ....you better believe it someone good watching us...
