[ianoxx91]

[BryanSlashed]

@ianoxx91 I think not this time, actually, Bono said once, this will be an instrumental song, but, WHAT THE FUCK !!!, this is amazing :D

[rockstopsthetraffic]

I love how the part at 1:24 sounds like "Being For The Benefit Of Mr. Kite!"

[hearditman]

Bono's a bit of a fanny at times.

[TheItaliamarco]

@hearditman what?

[hearditman]

@TheItaliamarco Bono is like punchinello sometimes.

[TheItaliamarco]

@TheItaliamarco what? u heard it man ! ah ha lol

[latingorillaz]

i dont know why, but this incredible song remains me the middle age... the sound is particular!!!! incredible instumental song!!! this is what i have been especting for so long of U2 and they finally did it!!!!!

waiting to hear and see them two times in argentina!

[TheItaliamarco]

lol i get some laugh when the pathetic british press try to put that coldplay band in the category with u2 . fuck the beatles arent even in u2s league at this stage . no one ever has done 30 years of kickin worldwide ass and takin names as u2 have . i mean this a german audience they wudnt budge normally for anyone . except ac dc's thunderstruck . got to say stingray is cool as shit

[ZbKiT]

@TheItaliamarco

Exactly!!

[Megazoup]

Le monde a besoin de U2, commencer la journée avec cette musique et tout va mieux ! C'est trop trop génial. Je les adore

[habib234]

its got a groove , no doubt, although it seems to have been looped....

they probably whipped this one up in 5 mins in the studio,,,,

such is the innate brillance of u2,,,

[maniacminor]

reminds me of zoo station almost

[dagmarataida]

The Lords, DANKE !!!!!

[MegaCoreMagnetizer]

GEEEERMAAAAAAAAAAANIAAAAAAAAAA­A !

[habib234]

it pains me so much, please let 2011 bring a new u2 album with all these top tunes they've debuted this year.

I heard they promised the release of their new album before the US tour resumes in May, ,,

the world needs rock .! THE WORLD NEEDS ROCK!

[lisamarie656]

@habib234 They are actually supposed to release 3 this year!

[LatMW]

the best rock show in the world

[LatMW]

the best rock show in the world no one can do it better than U2

[NoveNeroMusic]

33 years and counting...

U2 will be around FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[karlcelt]

saw the two shows in Aucklnad , they were excellent ..next stop Melbourne . This band have nailed it time and time again , and show no sign of relinquishing their title as the worlds greatest ever rock band !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[B0N0FAN]

@jesuisreed hell yeh!

[FrisbeeG]

Wow. This is the best-shot video I've seen of this song. Ace job !

[oooatealldapies]

ONE WEEK!!!! Till they hit Melbourne and I CANT WAIT!! Have tix for both shows and when they start playing this I will be going crazy. It was in Adelaide 21 years before that I first saw them.

These guys are the best and their music is the soundtrack to my life cant wait for the new album! And must say agree with fortitude78 re Get on Ya Boots but cant wait to hear the new material in particular Mercy.

[B0N0FAN]

@oooatealldapies yeh they come to sydney soon YEEEEHA

[fortitude78]

This is a great piece to get the crowd up at the beginning of the gig - it should segue straight into Get on Your Boots though instead of the big gap between Beautiful Day.

[TheJagger432]

Ich hab mich im Publikum entdeckt... ;)

[Jpkingu2]

Hate him all you want, Haters

Bono's words will be around hundreds of times longer than yours.

[jesperoutzen]

I listen to this number every morning. It gives my day a "kick start" when i move like Bono in the shower!

[herok12]

He looks like "The Fly" ! :D

[ThePacifica123]

great video ;) which camera did you use?? the quality is brilliant!!! :)

[JrRulz8]

This song reminds me of a surfer song for some strange reason,but it still rock.And the bass that Adam is using is a Buzzard bass. I know that because i'm a bass player myself. U2Rebel2015

[269percy]

adams bass is a reverso by washburn.

[mazza6595]

i want 2 see the rest of the concert now.???

[homerj281]

He flips someone off at 1:30, lol!

[newradfan1]

@homerj281 lol yea i didnt realize it until you mentioned it.

[MegaTrainspotter]

Sounds like marc bolans' 20th century boy'? mmm.

[MegaTrainspotter]

This is really cool tune? I love it.

[U2fanBoy100]

Look at the two guitars. they are opposits of each other. Edge's is with the big hook on the back upwards. Adam's is with the hook down. maybe they are both explorers could this be right?

[Geraldinebaju]

Te amo Bono.

[MegaTrainspotter]

ACTUNG BABY!

[djMacPhisto]

2 days of Brussels here we go!

[GentleAris]

Top quality! Go Bono show us what you've got!

It's Showtime!

[u2joshua1]

Brussel here we come!!

[miracledrug19]

1:28 xD =)

[vertigoexist]

@miracledrug19 jajajajajaja bono say's "eat this" to all the page about "u2 sucks"

[kkazpaul]

Bono looks like Schwarzenegger in Terminator...;-))

[Paint4U2]

@kkazpaul Oh yeah!I had the same feeling when I saw the movie in the previous days...

[flenderthefunkster]

shit I wish I could see them closely like this

I saw them only once but just watching far away from arena , only see from side of the stage ....

[coolkid2446]

Edge=Complete beast on guitar

[jpjames1]

opening bar is personal jesus

[nunozr]

U2 must open with breath!!!!!

[U21310]

@nunozr Breathe

[puturhandsup100]

U2 rock on

[mcfistoU2]

:o) i see myself in the video ;o)



[U2JanetFan]

I love it.

[andrewgord]

they just get better & better !!!! long live the band that are U2

[barn524]

he just needs the black hair too....but I don't care what color it is....

[swhorne]

I just meant his on-stage antics are reminiscent of his Fly character from Zoo TV, which was probably just an extension of Bono`s somewhat repressed natural personality, which he unleashed in 1992. It`s cool to see a frontman comfortable in his own skin.

[Anotherblackseason]

I'm glad Bono is back and healthy again. They are a shinning light in the world. rock on U2!

[swhorne]

The Fly is BACK!!!

[18Murray88]

@swhorne what do you mean the fly is back,are they gonna be playing that song on tour again?

[barn524]

@18Murray88 oh if only.....the Fly...that would be awesome to hear!

[brainwavezzz]

...And on the 6th day God created U2.. I go to lots of festivals and concerts but this is the the best gig I've ever seen.

[U2JanetFan]

@brainwavezzz I love your comment. Couldn't agree more.

[18Murray88]

its eitheir that bono's jacket is too small or his t-shirt is too big

[asusundevils1971]

Have to love saying achtung baby at the end of the song..... He has the leather all we need now is the glasses and Zoo Station to start the show and bring back memories of 92-93 tour.....

[asusundevils1971]

The B man looks like he has lost a few pounds since having the surgery, also he isnt wearing those big lifts on his boots that he has been wearing since POPMART. He has learned or was told to stop wearing that shit on his feet to releive any stress it could cause in the future. I know after two major back surgeries to listen to my surgeon. One surgery to late..

[sigdieter]

Wow!! The Perfect Song For The Perfect Concert!! I

[arm3nsm5]

1:30 bono shows his midle finger ?

[AlexPav2009]

@arm3nsm5 I think so :P

[randymalpaso]

In reply to Kango...

I have been a fan since the early 80's and the last few albums have been less than exciting I think that if this were a "direction" it might be ok!!!!

[KangoTV]

Really excited about this song; this is where the next album should go in my opinion

[habib234]

im hoping the next album returns to a much more rockier climate, nloth for all its merits, was very thinny( if that makes sense ), too many soft sounds, too reflective, overly religious and retrospective in some places, not enough rock. Return of the Stingray Guitar, Glastonbury and North Star all need to be on the new album.

I am enthused by Adam's recent comments that they have a lot of tunes 'stashed away', well if they all sounds as good as the ones they debuted, we're in for a treat.

[drvertigo]

@habib234 They won't. Its already been stated SOA will be ambient... per Bono. Bu twho knows what else is up their sleeves

[ajaxrulzz]

@drvertigo they're planning 4 albums. Dance, Spiderman, Rock and ambient(SOA)

[drvertigo]

@ajaxrulzz Well, I know Bono has talked about SOA, the music for Spiderman but have yet to hear them say there is going to be an actual "album" for it, as for dance and rock? where did you hear this? Whats your source? This is new to me, esp the dance thing?

[RattleAndHum1988]

@ajaxrulzz I also read that interview, and I very much doubt it'll happen, probably just Bono being an opportunist and enthusiast again. NOW they're talking about releasing just an EP. If anything, I think they'll just end up writing one new album like they usually do, with the spiderman musical score on the side.

[BonoAndU2]

This is so damn good. I want this song. I want to blast it in my car.

[5UhrMorgens]

Check out my Channel for some more Frankfurt Clips...there is also a version of this one with a part of "Beautiful day" ;-)

[Elvisstadt]

leider kommt da doch so manches vom band....ansonsten: perfekt!!!!!!!

[beeu2]

ahaha........GERMANiA....... :D

[katazeus]

GERMANIAAAAAA YEAH ITALIAN!!!

[laboloche]

Bono = Legend

[Bimfirestarter]

@laboloche Yeah, he's pretty good, I guess...he does sing my favourite song of all time, after all (Lemon).

[prezydent2025]

@laboloche U2 = Legends 

[drumdani]

"Achtung Baby":D

[U2SSana]

GERMANIAAAAA! Bono Italian version.. :)

[9dino]

not sure if its just the way its recorded but i love the harsh and crunchy sound on on the guitar

[Geril1969]

Eines der geilsten Momente überhaupt!!! Ein so überzeugendes Konzert. Teilweise absolut Perfekt!

[19LYL84]

ma a 1:29 alza il dito medio?

[Xalira06]

@19LYL84 pare di sì :D IT's fantastic anyway, the crowd sounded too weak so he screamed "Germaniaaaa!" and all Italians in the house answered right away :)

[LuthienBono]

Bono looking mighty fine and back to his old self! Lovely to see, thanks for sharing, U2s Helsinki gigs only a just over a week to go!! ;D

[sprunso]

genial!!! wie immer

8 Konzerte gesehen und jedes mal Wahnsinn

Glastonbury ist auch super! Gefaellt mir sehr gut

[MegaTrainspotter]

Nice homage to the' fly' and' zoo tv...'. ACHTUNG BABY....

[popbonobuzzbaby]

Thank you! :) Great video.

[schilfiger]

I was there too; came from the Netherlands. Great show! But euh...I must say that Glastonbury was a pretty cool new song

[smurfu2]

Cant wait until Paris.

[sHART1780]

This is a cool song. Way better than that glastonbury rubbish.

[corku2]

He seems to stick his finger up at random people during this sing like at the end of Until....... Yea Yea Yea

[gabyme1105]

I was there. Amazing show like always. U2, love you guys !!!

[shkee23]

Achtung baby!

[wherethejose]

Genial!!!

[mariu2anne]

I wonder who Bono is flippin off at 1:23.

[greety]

@mariu2anne I think it's just part of the prance ;-)

He did the same thing in Turin, at about the same time lol (check u2gigs' clip here on this account)

[bonosfriend]

Seeing Larry get up and give applause is an amazing feeling... When these guys are on, there is no one in the world that can touch them... NO ONE!!!!

[jpjames1]

@bonosfriend I agree when the mood is right it is special

[dublinslainte]

@bonosfriend ; problem is that currently they are "not on" ; unfortunately they are going through the motions promoting the failed NLOTH album and trying to make the best of it making as much money as they can off the 360 concept; hence now opening with Beautiful Day

[bonosfriend]

@dublinslainte .. These guys have been "on"for 30 years... They constantly remain relevant, and constantly remain the greatest band in the world. THE GREATEST!!!!!

[habib234]

@bonosfriend I concur, though I am concerned by the apparent 'miming' prevalent in this opening salvo, especially the drums, which appear not to be in sync with the sound,,,

have to say though, this track got groove & quirkiness, like reach wario's island on super mario world.....

[lisamarie656]

@bonosfriend The favor is the Lord is unmistakably upon them.
