U2 on Good Morning America Part 1 HQ

[slockyboy]

At 8:00am Bono and Edge's voices sound as sharp as ever. Shit, I can't even function properly before 10:00am. Love these guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[RideMyBMW]

the opening riff is awesome...but why oh why do they hafta fu%$ it up by taking it down a couple notches? The opening riff, bass shoulda jumped in and then drums rocketing in...keep the tempo going from start to finish.

[nusrathussein]

@RideMyBMW Larry Mullen Jr is the greatest rock drummer of all time.

[declan332]

This was good, came on to see what some folk had to say about U2 & I see 2 people having an argument....Eh could you take it to IM on MSN or something? No one else is interested in you squabble!

[Marcus1050]

good sound...

[SteeAsp]

The news show for entertainment GMA complete with plastic "we're your friend"

type hosts for an entertainment driven audience.....real news hounds these

so called studio journalists are.

And U2 looks like ther've lost a lot of their

fanbase the albums weak in the charts,

guess thats got a lot to do with his highness Bozo Bono ties to the corrupt.

[farawaysoclosestay]

He has ties to the corrupt?, But I doubt he even knows you Sir. I'll be your huckleberry, say when!

[SteeAsp]

Response to:

Farawayin- a dreamstate in the good ol trouble making USA land of hero fodder.

Poor blind petals cannot see in their entertainment driven culture its all idol worshipping...ie, Obamamania. Your profile says it all, no info there, just l love being entertained by stars.

Worst public in the world, lazy self indulgent loud and basically dumb..Ha.

Except the awake.

[farawaysoclosestay]

Quit messaging me!! You are completely schizophrenic whens the last time youve been on a date with a girl? why do you say on your profile that you rarely visit you tube you liar. to tell youre delusions of grandeur elsewhere. Bono & U2 are written in the Lambs Book of Life and you are jelous!! hah!! Not only that but U2 are Great musicians who make awesome music and their normal with wives and children unlike you, is what Im guessing. The more God uses U2 the more the devil wants to stop them.

[SteeAsp]

Lunatic Fringe on Amerika,,,,,,your the fucking one that started the message Bible Belt Head,

in the lamb of god nonsense stick to Hans Christian Anderson.

A date with a girl will fix things up, fuckwit.

[farawaysoclosestay]

you wroth on my profile that Im asleep and am blind as a bat, youre the one who's obviously blind as a bat if you havent been able to witness your self all of God's,Glory power and miracles. You probably know too, but you worship Satan so you cant glorify God. Dont bother trying to get a girl I guaruntee no girl wants to be with a schizo prick like you.

[SteeAsp]

Poor little Darling.

[billay87]

I'm wondering how they got the word out about this concert? I heard that no one knew about it until the day of the show or something like that.

[dermott06]

i started really liking u2 at the release of how to dismantle an atomic bomb, and seen them at croke park during the vertigo tour. seeing them at the same stadium this summer, july 24th...... cant wait!!! really like no line on the horizon, stand up comedy would be my favorite track at the minute.

[jppjc]

im also a huge fan of stand up comedy

[ral003]

I just think that this album is one of their must lyrically rich as well in sound, totally different and great

[BonoAndU2]

7:20

Best part of this concert. The songs are what built the a great concert, that moment aces it.

[livermurf]

why cant u2 play something like tghis in ireland ???? and why cant they sing how ireland ' doesnt know how beautiful it is "

[SESULISE]

U2 son como el vino, con el paso de los años son más buenos, arriva U2 y abajo los políticos!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!

[LaurieGreenSoprano]

I just can't believe how he sounds at 8 o'clock in the morning.... crazy.... This album is FANTASTIC!!!! I have to see them live. I've not seen them yet and I've been a fan for 20 years.... LOVE THIS BAND FOREVER!!!

[cheferabelo]

its the perfect song to wake up, haha

[jenannvick]

Omg you havent seen bono sing his sweet voice?? I saw them live last week at the rogers center fucking fantasic better than sex im so sure bono??

You have to see them might be theri last tour

[Nigelxman]

@LaurieGreenSoprano UM no. the album is complete shite.  Thanks for playing though.

[LaurieGreenSoprano]

@Nigelxman Matter of opinion, dude. No need to be snarky.

[delboy24x]

ill see them in my home town dublin,the only place to see them

[15mevale]

what is the name of the second song?

[mauiman40206]

The second song was "Magnificent" from No Line On The Horizon. Have been a long time fan of U2. No Line is an awesome album. Can't wait for the tour to start. Flying from the US to London and Glasgow shows in August.

[serjuliana]

U2 a maior banda de todos os tempos sergio BRAZIL

[jasonfox123]

They take full control of the crowd!!! Incredible. U2 are great. Can´t see anyone, any band like this..

[slypryrok91]

just saw u.s. tour dates/ very disappointing/ not enough shows

[dbc13]

yeah and the one near me is on a damn thursday. did i mention that i'm a student still? *cries*

[corry160]

they have a new album comin out next year so they will tour that in the u.s as well

[dkrakovski]

they do?

[slypryrok91]

do u think the album at the end of the year is going to have something to do with the spiderman show on broadway

[latingorillaz]

no, the album at the end of the year will include some songs that couldn't be released in this album because there are a lot of new songs, there is a rumour that the next album title will be "songs of ascent", and Bono said that it will probably sound like a "peregrination album", there is a song called "winter" that appears in "Linear" film but not in the album and it will be included in "song of ascent"

[JohnnyLaRue86]

Don't worry they will be adding a lot of shows. Just working out the details. A lot of those shows have three and four days between them so they will no doubt be playing 2-3 nights in the big towns.

[slypryrok91]

on the vertigo tour i gotpicked to be in the circle and ended up in the front row i east rutgerford,n.j then in pittsburgh my wife and kids got to be in the front row i was not with them

[charlesb120]

i love u2 since i was a boy , i from venezuela i love freedom , i and i folow u2 since my early years the best band over the world .ever , i love america ;

[miguelziga23]

What CANT The Edge do? Best backup vocals I've heard in awhile

[doyen040]

I just love Magnificent. Wow! That is awesome.

I have loved this band since the "Boy" album, circa 1979. Nice feeling watching everyone gradually "catch on" over the years.

Easily the greatest band ever, no question.

[183PAS]

U2 is magnificent!!!!!

[jbarb12]

I was there. Me & my gf won a contest and were flown there to see it live. It was a badass concert.

[massreaction]

ahh that was so fun

[Mushroommojo]

My friends got to miss school for this

[chick7489]

Haha AWESOME Video!!

I absoulutely loved it!

Thanks for posting it!

[hallerfamer1094]

this concert was sick, and my school was closed for it

[mlupardi]

i was almost gonna sell my student ID but decided na I WOULD rather watch and now im happy being a prep student rulez!

[chichard41]

Finally a fantastic crowd :D

[carlamilo13]

can't wait to see them in concert again. NLOTH has exceeded my (high) expectations.

[Brandesian]

Wow, there's just a special energy with this new material...the guys look like they're feeling it, and Bono's powers to collect the audience up into it too have been magnificent all week! The new work is just gorgeous, interestingly different but essentially all that makes U2 special. Amazing...

[kaump22]

get on your boots needs some work....but magnificent is awesome

[guitarfreak606]

i love it! bono's voice not in top form for that performence, but he still makes it sound like a freaking masterpiece haha

[babilonia4056]

has anyone got the video of breathe and vertigo, which they supposly played when the cameras stopped recording

[U2JanetFan]

i love this band beyond words

[ejb822]

THANK YOU!!! Originally hated "boots" but the more I listen to it the better it sounds. Loved Magnificient instantly.

[carlamilo13]

me too. "boots" was disappointing initially but after 3 or 4 listens it grew on me.

[ahmadusshafa]

greatest band with the greatest frontman ever to run the crowd like loose electricity while the band in his back is playing striptease. wow. MAGNIFICENT

[drvertigo]

If this song doesn't move you your fucking dead

[tweetermkyman]

Then call me a corpse. I'm a huge U2 fan since I was 9, when my aunt gave me the Rattle and Hum cassette, I was even amongst the crowd at Fordham watching this, but Boots is one of the worst songs they have ever recorded.

[drvertigo]

Ok "you are a corpse"

Sorry hear that. If you were alive you could be enjoying Magnificent.

[headman844]

im not the biggest U2 fan but i gained a lot of respect for them today by playing at fordham of all places. it pretty cool that they played at a small school out of everywhere in ny they could have done this.

[Qtuber07]

Fordham is not really considered all small school at all, quite the opposite. It's a Tier 1 school that has three campuses in new york as it breaks through ranks to become top 50 schools in US. And US Newsweek has named them Hottest Catholic School in United states

[J0hn845]

lol, fordham isn't a small school

its in the middle of the bronx with probably close to 8000 kids

it's been around for over a hundred years

[drummerdude6485]

right when it started I left for school at 8:08

GMA time!!!

[peterlyons002003]

Fantastic! U2 put other bands to shame! Coldplay will be copying this soon no doubt!

[peachblossom5121]

U2 was awesome at Fordham! Had so much fun this morning!!!!!!!!!!

[THUGLIFEKRISIS]

dang... they know they got that shit... gotta c this tour!!!!!! thanx 4 all your posts... I don't have tv.

[guzpat]

Magnificent is just that!!!! Thye are the best rock band!!!

[nhlluver19]

JUST AMAZING

[BirdyDear]

'Magnificent' moved me to tears.

I was reminded why I have bought

every single one of their records since

1983. It feels good to be their fan.

[KUEFC]

You "suck"

[babilonia4056]

shut your fuck in mouth¡¡ you´re talking about prpbably the best band in the last 25 years

[drvertigo]

Sucks what?

All other bands like a fucking hoover and spits them out? I agree

[Martybonilla]

Thanks for posting! I was at home watching it but I had to leave to work :(

[padfootreturns92]
