  • I see a close-up on sexy, smiley Adam. Thanks!

  • great artists and charity donators! build an 80 million dolar stage and count on people buying tickets just to see a spectactle. in the naaame of money.

  • The U2 Live from Paris 1987 DVD has the best performance of this song ever.

  • was this the very first show from the 360 tour?how long have the band been touring?

  • @MegaTrainspotter

    Yes Barcelona was the first show from the 360 tour. They rehearsed over and over in Barcelona. It was the first time in 20 years they played again this song. In my opinion this version is 100 times better then the old one and the best U2 Song of all time.

  • one of their best songs!

    

  • anyone PLEASE HELP ME and tell me WHY u2 release dvds from places like chicago boson or los angeles, instead to release from places like Sao paulo Milan

    Barcelona, and other so much better and hot than usa!?

  • @reynaniuri Because they're easier to sell in the US.

  • @U2006com i don't think so...

    anywhere they record the DVD will sell

    my opinion....

  • @reynaniuri They have released DVD of their performance in Milan on the Vertigo tour. The POP DVD was filmed in Mexico City

  • Amazing song...

  • Crearono il gruppo e l'unico che sapeva suonare era il batterista! Gli altri non azzeccavano una nota! Bono lo misero a cantare perchè non sapeva suonare neanche la chitarra!!! Ahahahah sono 4 pagliacci che hanno avuto una fortuna incredibile! Se questa è musica...non c'è alcuno spessore tecnico, veramente scarsa qualità!

  • @timon19811981 se ti fà schifo xkè te la senti e scrivi anche commenti??? e poi leggi i testi e ascolta la qualità del suono di un live fatto bene e non di uno ripreso con un cellulare.

  • @LorenzoaForia mi sono piaciuti un periodo e ho avuto modo di ascoltare le loro canzoni. Col tempo, capendo i testi e comprendendo un pò più di musica mi sono reso conto che il loro spessore è veramente basso. Come ho già scritto non ci sono nè voce, nè capacità musicali, nè testi di qualità.

  • Ma come fa a piacere questo gruppo? Addirittura c'è gente che lo definisce il miglior gruppo del mondo!!! Ma lo sentite il cantante? E' stonatissimo e canta senza voglia, sembra che stia facendo uno sforzo disumano quando apre bocca per cantare...quasi mi fa venire l'ansia! E che dire della musica? Semplicissima, non una parte un pò complessa....3 note e via così tutte le canzoni...questi hanno fatto fortuna grazie a un'incredibile dose di fortuna!!! Continua

  • DEDICADO A DANIEL COLOMAR. UN AMIGO.

  • on of the best band in world, great art and talent to all the members

  • was this the first 360 gig? you lucky people....

  • Awesome video! Thank you! Can you tell us what camcorder you used to shoot this? Thanks.

  • this is one of my favs song ever!!!!

  • Жаль,что в Москве ее не исполняли (((( Я очень ждала !!!!!!

  • The best live song of the current tour but now sadly dropped from the set!

    There isn't another U2 song quite like this one, totally unique and atmospheric, i felt completely immersed in this song at the three shows i went too but cannot bring myself to go to any of the new shows as this song seems to have been disgarded

  • @moodyblue1964 I'm pretty sure they mistakenly dropped the song because they were debuting more new songs on the tour. I'm pretty sure TUF will come back for North America next year, or maybe Australia.

  •  when i hear this song i feel like im living 80's

  • beautifully!

  • Did bono forget the lyrics of this one song??or is it me? Really sucks at this one...and I'm a huge U2 fan..... poor performance....

    He really got a frog in his throat!!!

  • @carlos2009cuesta I agree . . .  my favorite band, and this is definitly one of my favorite songs but this performance was terrible.

  • @carlos2009cuesta In all fairness, this was the first public performance of "The Unforgettable Fire" in, like, 20 years! Cut them some slack!

  • Did bono forget the lyrics of this one song??or is it me? Really sucks at this one...and I'm a huge U2 fan..... poor performance....He really got a frog in his throat!!!

  • @carlos2009cuesta

    strongly disagree... I believe this is a good version of this song... my opinion though

  • u2....des dieux

  • I love this,bono,get well soon!!!!!!!

  • I'm a newer fan of U2 I'm 16 and became a fan after the release of NLOTH and i couldn't go see them in concert. Does anyone see a new album being released soon?

  • @RushRules4

    sixteen years old? some of their material is thirty years old. FYI.

    yes they are working on a new album. dunno when they will release it.

  • @RushRules4 Welcome Rush!

  • @RushRules4

    not in the very near future but U2 will release a new album sometime. Go see them next year if you can

  • the opening sequence (with the repeating chords) is lovely.

  • Alli estuvimos que pasada...

  • Maguenifico :-) esperando por 2 de Outubro até lá Coinbra :-)

  • best version of the entire tour .... loved it live cant wait for the 2010 show im gonna see

  • one of  my favourite songs special when walking in the snow or rain

  • My favorite road trip song. Actually the whole album is great! But this song especially brings memories of driving from Berlin to Lyon on Jan' 02. Best trip of my life. I love my friends! I love U2. Thanks for the UNFORGETTABLE FIRE!

  • u2 only down the 100miles from me but there to big now to see

  • Comment removed

  • forza Barca fuck Real

  • @2912770 yes,Real fucking club e viva Barça

  • A espera de dia 2 Outubro :) :) :) :)

  • EXTRAORDINARIO!! Todo el concierto, al igual que en Zagreb. Me estremezco de recordarlo. Fueron unas horas mágicas. Qué entrega chicos después de tantos años.. No cambieis nunca y gracias por hacernos disfrutar de momentos tan,tan maravillosos. Mil gracias U2. Nos vemos en Donosti.

  • Que fuerte!!! yo estube alli al lado tuyo.. de hecho salgo en el minuto 1:56 de tu video de perfil waw!! con cara de alucinado..que recuerdos...tienes mas videos??

  • este tema solo ya vale el concierto, que emocion!!! feliz 2010

  • I must confess that this concert seems a little flat, Bono sings the songs wierdly... still a huge fan of the band.

  • ***PRONTO PRESENTO UNOS TEMAS***

  • it's really an unforgrtable fire...

    PLEASE! U2 360° IN BRAZIL!!!!!!!!

  • when i was at the toronto 2 show when this song played, all of a sudden this beautiful wund started blowing, it was very relaxing

  • ALTO TEMA..PARA DANI D SAN MIGUEL..

  • Simplesmente LINDO ;) :) :)

  • i get chills every time i go to one of their concerts

  • The ticket says that you cant use any kind of recording devices :D

  • It says, BUT ...

  • U2 wrote "Miami"

  • What a great song and a fabulous band!! Just saw the show here in Phoenix and they were as good as ever. It was so cool that they played this one and some of their other lesser known songs.

  • questa è musica da brivido!!!!!!

  • I can't believe it - Bono still has it. He's getting old and sounded a bit burnt out recently....but this is FANTASTIC! Well done Bono!!

  • so angry i couldn't go to the ones in england! :(:(:(:(

  • Perfection.

  • this and new years day are the best U2 songs and also the best songs ever

  • buenísimo!!!

  • El mejor concierto que he estado en mi vida!, sois increíbles

  • this tour has got better+ better the longer it goes on FANTASTIC.

  • Not always true the first came, first served basis because I just got mine for ATLANT-09 in advance and they put me in a upper level, but I still czch out this now and the lower level and closer tickets started being available and even cheaper...but the good news I am going w/ a gal so...this will pay off :P

  • Hey, I've done GA for Bruce many times, but never these guys. Could someone tell me the procedure? Is there a lottery or is it just first come, first serve (in which case,, I guess I'm screwed because I can't get there before 5)?

    Lotteries rule!

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Oh, this is for tomorrow's Fedex show in case it varies from show to show.

  • Yeah, Fans who purchase general admission tickets will be given seating closest to the stage on a first-come, first-served basis. I'm going to lower level (today at FedexField)

  • BEST SONG OF THE SET!

  • @coolich absolutely agree with you. I love u2 but their 360 show is disappointing.

    Zoo tv was soooo much better, the concept, the stage, the set list beginning to end.

  • This is such a Beautiful & emotional song!

    I LOVE IT SOOOO much !

  • Best song played last nite! Giants Stadium

  • my favorite song!!!! Bono forgot the lyrics.. :P

  • he changed them stay in the sun

  • Can't believe they played this, and so many new it. Awesome to see the crowd response. These days so many only seem to know the newer stuff.

  • The instrumental bridge in this song sounds incredibly powerful and blew me away on the nights, the piano sound sounds just like the original and i had hairs on the back of my neck and almost tears in my eyes when i first heard the opening sounds to this song. It's the song that got me into them all those years ago big time and to hear it played after all these years......ah what can one say !!!!

  • So Beautifully said my friend !

  • that song was sooooooooooooooo amazing life , i love it

  • that song was sooooooooooooooo amazing life , i love it

  • bring on WIRE i say!!! even three sunrises would be dynamic as well shall see if they come up sometime if anything they should do "Red hill mining town" in a encore section in thier career as of now they have to play it by all means!!!!!!!!!

  • doesn't get any better than this!! Just seen them at Soldier Field and it was incredible!!

  • AMAZING... I dig their early shit!!!!

  • Speechless... someone please tell me if there is another band and stage on the world better than this...

  • There isn't. Sorry.

  • what is adam clayton wearing? lol

  • I love this song.. one of my U2 favorite.. I never thought they would play it .now!!! O.O oh my..... love it

  • fucking madness

  • one of my favourite songs ever.i loved it since i first saw it way back in'85

  • WOW !!!!!!! truly awesome.

    saw them at don valley, sheffield and was just blown away. the best live gig i've ever been to.

    you guys in the us are in for a real treat.

  • quesion.. im going to the concert in LA.. how do you sneak a camcorder in..?? i thought they didnt allow it?? If anyone has any tips id appreaciate it!!

  • seen em in cardiff

    absolutly blown out of my socks by them! amazing band!!!!

  • saw them perform this in sheffield. more spaced out version on this tour. 80's version had raw power. one of hightlights nonetheless.

  • it was their best idea to play uf during their 360 tour.

  • agreed, this an ultraviolet

  • Funny how so many of us love this song and Ultraviolet the most. These two songs alone were my 'lose yourself' moments during the whole show.

  • Que canción más hermosa... y que bien sigue sonando mas de 20 años después. Gracias por éste vídeo.

  • the beehive screen looks amazing from further away. that was the best stage i have ever seen

  • Best band in the world, however, what's up with the giant beehive in the middle???

  • you.... thats what!.....

  • great song!!! and also great video camera, the quality of video and soud is awesome!!! which model is it?

  • this song was so incredible. this is one of my favorite songs. the drums are amazing. the first two dublin shows were sooooo good. luckily i got to see them twice in their homeland!

  • been in ZAGREB concert......awsome!!!!!.....n­ice....excellent...... today is the second day of a concert!!!!!!!

  • O U2 sempre se renovando com antigos sucessos!!! Maravilhoso!

  • puta show.. mas ta meio caidinho

    deixa vir por Brasil.. aqui sim, o público animado pra show

  • I was there, I saw them in ireland for zoo tv, Miami for elevation and this was the best I have seen

  • I totally agre with u, yesterday I could see Bono performing this great song live in Chorzów, Poland. you all should see the "effect of the flag" that we Polish fans made for U2 . ths is and will be one of the greatest rock bands ever!

  • Hey all please listen....We all love this band. Nothing will ever be as it was but it is as it should be. Bono would say that even....enjoy them while they are around. I only listened to this so I could be reminded of the old days...hence the comments of the best vocals. No one can tour this planet with countless dates and have a voice after all that. But, the memories, they stay the same....

  • el esenario es impresionante U2 ha vuelto!!

  • I went to the Unforgettable Fire tour back in 84 in Los Angeles. Awesome concert! This is a great song.

  • Great quality video. How was it taken?

  • Larry didn't actually drum in 1985

  • what? of course he did...

  • his voice is good here but it will never be as good as it was with the tours for rattle and hum.

  • bono's voice is better now than at any point in the last 20 years!

  • Larry's beat is different and much mellower than it was during the 1985 tour. Oh well...that was such a long time ago.

  • Perfect!!!

  • Beautiful, they played it in The Netherlands as well...

  • Esta canción es mágica, increible directo, orgullosa de haber podido estar alli y escuchar esta canción, una de mis favoritas. Me encanta, gracias por subirlo.

  • Exceptional audio quality on this. It's wonderful to hear this moving song played live again after all these years. Saw them play it for the first time in Hartford in April 1985.

  • Yeah I wuz dere last night one word... JAYZUS !

  • Stunned by the visual, and then by Adams Bass. Holy crap i'm gonna have fun to tdot in september.

  • Sooo glad they are playing this!!!!!

  • excellent.

  • Tomorrow Croke Park.U2 are coming home to the biggest and most loyal fans of them all! I for one will be there and luvvin it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • beautifull!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!

  • Amsterdam was great! Thank you so much for a wonderful experience!

  • what kind of camera did you use? it is an amazing quality!!!

  • Tomorrow Amsterdam!!

  • we going to!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I was yesterday in Berlin, 90.000 Fans and it was Wonderful :-)))

  • Can't wait for the homecoming in Dublin next Sat night. Pints of Guinness and U2 Live. Priceless!!

  • same here bud.

    cannot wait to hear this song.

    just warming up now with a few bulmers and shit loads of U2 on youtube.

    gonna be a great night.

  • What's the difference between God and Bono?

    God doesn't think he's Bono.........

  • His voice has definitely lost the grungy, punk feel that it had for these songs back when they were fresh.

  • He had to get a better technique cause' that punk voice was awesome but it can really ruin the voice and his voice now fits their style better

  • He'd a better voice and better range before and during the Zoo period. The smoking fucked his range up. It's not as good as it once was. Doesn't have as much character to it.

  • Give the man a break, he's getting on now. He's just older and his voice wears out a little quicker

  • I agree that his voice has aged and was hurt a bit by the smoking. But honestly, the Joshua Tree performances of this song aren't that much better than these recent ones. This song has always been challenging vocally for Bono and is never the same live as the studio version has an extremely soaring vocal. I think this is pretty dammed good considering.

  • Not saying it's bad, but his voice definitely is a little jaded. If you listen to Who's Gonna Ride Your WIld Horses Live back in '93 and songs like Desire from Zoo TV, there is a fairly big difference in performance. Still, even on this form, Bono and the band can't be topped by anyone currently going. They make all other bands look amatuer.

  • No the Lovetown tour vocals are vastly superior there is more richness to his voice and sounded more pure. And of course his range was alot more wider. His voice is not the same anymore. And it shouldn't be a suprise when you consider he is 50 yrs old. I believe his voice was at its best at 84-94 between the ages of 24-34 Bono voice and performances were at his prime and absolutely legendary.

  • Ok guys, cu next monday and tuesday in Amsterdam! What a wonderfull concert again!!!!!!!!!!!

  • great song!

    great performance!

    great band!

    great voice!

    simply amazing!

  • i love you Adam Clayton, you are the most beatifull man of u2

  • they are still great mate...

  • I hope they play this in Vancouver!!!!!!!!!!

  • 3 40 thru 4 27 great close up of adam

  • I'd love to hear this amazing song in Poland in August!!!! I love this!!

  • Comment removed

  • I'm there biggest yet most harsh fan, but I have to admit, this man is slowly starting to sound like 1987-1989 again!

  • Youre insane

  • Shows me one thing, Bono is confident about his voice again. They stopped doing this song live about 20 years ago seeing that his voice changed (he said so himself, so back off) and there is no way he could hit those notes. Now he can. Exciting times! Seeing them next month.

  • they should mix up their setlist and play a little bit of EVERYTHING... or at least release some DVD's with new performances of old songs!

    now they're probably gonna play this setlist the whole tour with very few variations. i expect more from my favourite band.

  • that is amazing.....

  • who manages what U play. Start with Magnificent lads and end with surrender. BAD INSTEAD OF BOOTS XOXO.

  • I'm really excited about this and about Ultraviolet and I hope they'll play them both when i see them in London!

  • I guess you like the old good times for U2!... I hope they play those 2 songs too in New York! I'm seeing them twice!

  • First time this song has been performed since 1990. Hard to believe people had to wait 19 years to hear a such a staple.

  • I am most excited for this song. :) :) ) :)

  • Daytime dreams of hats and long hair

    Bad at Live aid, words were sincere

    Tell me hero WHERE R U NOW? :(

    Copyrite Artiffx Uk 2009

  • T*U*N*E

  • BARCELONA !!

  • guys u2 are not only about bono's voice....they are a comprehensive bands...when they are stage they beat everybody else....

  • They beat everybody except the comprehensive band from E Street that is

  • Love the drums on this...especially the refrain

  • I'm glad they put this song in. One of my favorites of the album and a really cool video. Also fits the vibe of this spacy tour.

  • Great new version, great show!

  • The difference is back in the 80's and 90's shows were not seen on a website the day of the show. Of course the first few shows will not be 100% but i really love this performance. Fans WANT to hear the old songs with the new ones and i personally feel they mix well. U2 would not be playing live in concert in 2009 if their music and performance was shi*.

  • Exactly. I'm really looking forward to seeing them later this month, waiting to see which gems like this they pull out from the back catalogue

  • Rayruit

    u2 e grande calai vos com a inveja cambada de ignorantes

    U2 IS GREAT NEW SONGS IS FANTASTIC

  • completely agree with u2guy2002. this sounds terrible, better leave these old songs as they were. dont spoil my great memories of this wonderful song as played live in 84 up to 87.

    u2 is the post-tattoo you phase like the stones were in the 80s. evry four years a new album, nothing new nothing worthwhile and play megalomanic live shows build around the same old stuff (bloody sunday, one, where the streets, bullet, pride) except he cannot sing them anymore. a lose-lose situation.

  • What the fuck do you know U2 still the biggest and best band in the world ,new album is brilliant a big departure with cracking tunes on it ,wash your ears out,this was one of the highlights in Barcelona ,Bono still hitting those high notes,bad quality recording.

  • Their best songs were written in the '80s. I love U2, really. They are probably my favourite band ever. But they have changed. At the beginning U2 rock was full of energy, songd like Sunday bloody sunday are masterpieces. Now I think theis inspiration and creativity isn't the same. Their songs are still beautiful, but I can't compare them with Pride, With or without you, New year's day, Where the streets have no name, All I want is you, October,...
