The cool thing about U2's 90s reinvention is that, despite how ironic, fun loving and bombastic they became, something about it remained a bit dark and eerie. Lemon perfectly encapsulates that. It's got a swagger to it but it's kind of discomfiting at the same time.
The last true Giant band that can stand shoulder to shoulder with Legends of the past like the Rolling Stones,the Beatles, Led Zeppelin Pink Floyd and the Who.
Omg I just did a full circle and I am back to this song. Addicted to this song, it's so quirky and I feel so good listening to it. I just like the 90's and 80's of U2 its obvious.
@Gaijinsider Thank you for that. But unfortunately I now imagine Bono sitting in a cold room, tweaking his nipples to a picture of his mother in a maid of honor dress.
No one's probably gonna read this, but I’ll say it anyway cuz I feel at least 1 person will. I'm a young designer and graffiti artist, I know there's a million out there but I feel like my art has a unique individual style.
If you just take a min and give me a chance I'll make you a believer. I would love nothing more than to have a loyal following on youtube. If anyone who reads this could press the "THUMBS UP" others will see it. Just a simple button push will make a huge difference.
funny thing that bono didn't like this video when he saw it for the first time...he was this close of doing another untli larry told him that it was one of the best performaces ever caught on camera...(from the best of 90-2000 dvd, is in the commentaries, sorry for my bad english)

The band was never crap to begin with, from the BOY album to the 360 tour. This was an artistic/experimental time as a band. Nonetheless I love U2, do you?
This song and this video defines all the neurosis for those who live entirely the 90`s... we were persons in motions in the same place, looking for nothing in the midnight, our God was the t.v. and our love was ourselves... One of the best songs of U2. MIDNIGHT IS WERE THE DAY BEGINS!!!!
A man makes a picture A moving picture Through the light projected He can see himself up close A man captures colour A man likes to stare He turns his money into light To look for her She is the dreamer She's imagination Through the light projected He can see himself up close You're gonna meet her there She's your destination There's no sleeping there She's imagination Lemon
Ok I knew this song excisted,I remember thinking wtf is this?!! That was a weird decade...All those damn doctors...and their anti depressants! That was that answer to "cure" mentally ill teenagers in the 1990's throw prozac at the problem its any wonder how any of us made it out alive! Generation X Forever!!!!
@mozeus5 Bono's singing about watching an old film of his mother at a wedding. "Lemon" refers to the color of her bridesmaid's dress. And, of course, she "makes [him] cry" and "whisper hello" because he lost his mother at a very young age.
love this video so much!! it's my fav of all time! I think it's a mastercalss by bono, expressing arrogance(yea she's hot) sudden realisation he's losing his grip! to madness! scene where he walks to camera a little manic then hides himself is pure class!! love the song but with the video it blows me away!!
Este vídeo eles fizeram em tributo as técnicas do grande fotógrafo inglês Eadweard Muybridge. (várias fotos tiradas em sequencia se transforma em movimento como se fosse um vídeo). Ex. Stop Motion e flipbook.
