  • my favorite also

  • It's nice knowing I am not the only U2 fan who thinks this is their best song.

  • What a amazing video!

  • Nice!

  • thats from 1987 - its taken from the tempe arizona concert, the same one that With or Without you is performed on rattle and hum the movie.

  • this and october are my favorite u2 songs. i remember cranking this song in my car cruising in ct. very emotional and touching

  • i used to liten to this loads when i was little!great voice in this song. THIS is the real U2.

  • Great tune. I think it's one of their bests. The Joshua Tree is such a great album.

  • this is the only song ever that makes my eyes water every single time i hear it. the most beautiful song ever written...his blood runs like a river...

  • How wonderful that amongst their hectic lives throughout their lives you can feel the love in this song.. was amazing having his family in the audience at the concert in Auckland - you could feel them rise to the occasion..what a wonderful thing for his family for him to still be as cherished as he was when he was here..

  • purty damn good pardner....

  • The retelling of ancient tales through Celtic hearts and minds.. and through all humankind's experiences. Beautiful and elegantly done.

  • Thanks for sharing...love it.

  • Hey did you no that they relesed a lp in new zealand with this song onit i think it was only relesed here i still got a copy that hasent even been opend.

  • the boys at their best

  • Saw these legends in Dec.'87 @ Sun Devil Stadium in Tempe, AZ. Still remember it. BB King Opened the show. Tremendous show. Unforgettable.(Fire)

  • Probably their best song...........

  • Great great song, I agree

  • Thanks for posting this. It's my favorite from U2. So much emotion in this song.

  • I agree, THIS is my favorite song of all times. It brings me such imagery I can feel. I feel very religous listening to it and I love the sad story behind it. It makes me want to visit the mountain that had the tree. What else can I say-It's like Pure love.

  • Underrated song. Just brilliant.

  • Sorry, quick amendment to my last statement. One Tree Hill is a suburb of its own. Mount Eden is close by. Both are gorgeous.

  • Just had a glimpse at the book U2 by U2. They mention Greg Carroll to whom this song is dedicated. He was a vibrant young Maori guy in NZ who worked as local roady in Auckland. He had never been overseas. U2 took a shine to him, got him a passport and took him around the world with them. Unfortunately he was involved in a fatal motorcycle accident. One Tree Hill is actually a landmark near downtown Auckland. In the suburb of Mount Eden.

  • It´s so great to listen the live version of this song. I wish they could go on a tour and play only those musics they seldom perform: ultraviolet, indian summer sky, the playboy mansion,trip through your eyes, miami, babyface, a man and a woman, and many others...

  • U2 is the Greatest!!!!

    and you, idiots... better get a girlfriend...

  • sensational live version! why on earth was this not on rattle and hum? definately one of U2's most under-rated songs.

  • my fav song and performance of all time, this is incredible, why the hell its not on rattle and hum I dont know. Can we have a joshua tree era concert dvd next please

  • Look, ma, no shades! Bono actually has eyes. This was before his metamorphosis into The Fly.

  • Wow. I have that in my will!

  • Beuatiful song from the best band of all time.

  • love this song! special song for kiwis the world over was awesome on Nov 25 06 in AKL chanted 'one tree hill! one tree hill!' and got an extra encore everyone knew the words and sang along. was beautiful complete w/ kowhaiwhai.

  • Wish they had put this on Rattle and Hum. This is a GREAT take of a great song. It would have been real easy to put it in.

  • one of the best live bands ever

  • Best song from the Joshua Tree. Wish this would have been on Rattle and Hum!

  • U2's best song written about their manager who was a New Zealander ,One Tree Hill is one of my favourite places to go to , it is in a place called Greenlane which is in Auckland City , when you go there it will take your breath away and youll never forget it!!

  • This has got to be U2s best song. Thanks for this video!

  • Why wasn't this in the film?!

  • One of my favorite U2 songs,very underrated,beautiful lyrics.Great beat,I wish they would play it more.

  • Amazing song. Saw it live last year at the first Oakland concert (first time it was played live in the US since 1987!). First verse only last year, but still....wow!
