  • brings a tear to my eye every time

  • Wow, haven't heard this acoustic version. Awesome!

  • Incredible version... Only Bono & The Edge... Who needs more?

  • @oscarxiques yeah!! That's what they should have done back in the early 80's with the BOY album!! all those kick ass rocking sounds and songs would sound amazing without drums and bass!

    You fucking retard, Larry Mullen Jr. owns and started the band U2. so get fucked.

  • full band version on the 360 stage !!!!

  • I love this song ... the band U2 and Dog Savanna are the bands that I like to hear! Viva Rock!

  • i love bono's harmonica solo. very cool to hear this song during an elevation tour gig

  • they should always play this, its short and worth it1

  • by far my favorite U2 song

  • This song is very underplayed!!!

  • Amazing song!!!

  • bono e incrivel

  • amazing, is this the same concert they played who´s gonna ride your wild horses?

  • Comment removed

  • no. this is from the elevation tour, whos gonna ride... was played live during the vertigo tour :)

  • Absolutely incredible.

  • i heard a recent acoustic performance by bono and edge. bono s voice is unbelievable, hes actually hitting pavarotti notes very easily. hes definitely back to his best.

  • Check the rattle and hum version.

  • Classic song & I'm glad they still play it, I hope they bring it around on the next tour.

  • Could any guitar player say what chords is the edge using?

  • It's very easy: (key of D)

    D Am -for verses

    Em G D - for chorus

    However it's important to catch right tempo and strumming

  • Yes, but here Edge is playing C Major instead of E Minor. On the album it is an E Minor.

  • Also try a capo on one. It sounds pretty cool espcially if its a solo instrumental like the video.

  • joshua the best recording EVER

  • great great great U24EVER

  • my most played u2 song ever .

  • I've never heard this song live at a U2 show yet... I like the unplugged version here. I like it so much I went and covered this song on my page...

  • This is a great song; and I am huge U2 fan. But...the vocals are in the C to B range. I know YouTubers will complain and flame, but honestly, this does not compare to U2 in the 1980s.

    This actually takes the song back to its original inception, but without Larry and Adam, it just doesn't cut it.

    3 Stars

  • i really enjoy this version, although true it is 1/2-step down so it's in D-flat major, and the highest note is a G-flat. bono's voice was indeed fairly scratchy during popmart and elevation (note performances of "bad")...

    that being said, he's regained much of his vocal power somehow during the vertigo tour & onward.

    ps: i'm sure you've seen Rattle & Hum but if you haven't, check out the version of In God's Country, you can find it on YouTube & it's really on fire

  • Amen

  • The Rattle and Hum version of "In God's Country" is also downed to a more comfortable vocal performance.

    I don't really care. Sure Bono's grown older and his voice has grown rustier, but as long as they're still songwriting and performing old songs as moving as they do, they could take it down as low as they want.

  • yeah but then bono's vocal performance at slane castle on the elevation tour (I think) in 2001 was absolutely breathtaking, so...

  • you're right, i'm huge u2 fan and i see that in lots of videos people say bono's vocals are going bad,,, i pray god he gets better some day

  • Very nice song from the brilliant Joshua Tree album. This song always takes me to another place. This version proves how superb Bono and The Edge harmonise together when they're sharing the microphone!

  • This is why these 2 of U2 are the GREATEST in the music industry!!! yeah baby!

  • amazing!!!

    breath taking!!!

    awesome!!! thanks for sharing this!!!

  • My last wish...too se U2 live....The great song! Thanks

  • incredible song.....sleep comes like a drug in god's country...the best song

  • I am so jealous. My fav U2 song ever. I wish I had beeb there. Hope they play it on their next tour.

  • I wish i was there! Beultiful song.

  • hvala kaj si ovo posto na youtube!!!znaš ,zavisim ti kaj si bio/bila na tom koncu!!!

  • This is the first time they played it since 1987!!! I wish I was there...

  • Tell me 'bout it, my favourite song and almost never played...

  • absolutely! it's a great song, very underestimated in my opinion.

  • great song, like how bono leans over to read the lyrics from the sheet at the point of the heart! lol

  • Awesome and very good quality as well. =D

  • Brilliant. Thanks for posting this.
