  • That little fella is a Robbie Williams lookalike dont you think?

  • Well, as the little man is shown at the end of the video at the funeral service and tossing the ring into the grave i think we can assume that he did not die. As he is seen throwing the ring into the grave then we can also assume the girl died. The only question is, what happened after the little guy climbed up the rope and how did the girl die? I think we just cant know these answers from the information given. It's too sketchy.

  • Yes, I had not watched the entire video when I wrote my opinion. I feel dumb now hehe.

    It's crazy O_o

  • I thought u think u2 is shit???

  • Why do people think that the girl died? just because of the size of the coffin?

    Could it be that the litle man commited suicide and then what we se "flying" is his soul? And that he is the one inside the coffin?

    Just asking.

  • My take is that he just gave up on her, free as bird. Hence all the wavey shots even with the caskets. It's not meant to be real.

  • Nice song.I will post on Twitter.Shaneslas. Thank U :)

  • Chi mi spiega sto video che non ho capito come muore lei alla fine??

  • all I wanted was 19 September and no more ....the game is over¡¡¡¡¡¡

  • all I wanted was 19 September and no more the game is over

  • Please can someone tell me what happens at the end of this video, it's been bugging me for a few weeks now. The short guy wants the girl, and the girl wants the short guy but is stuck with the tall guy. The short guy realises that the girl can't/won't leave the tall guy so attempts to 'transcend' the physical universe and facilitate the murder of the girl (what else could be the explanation?). If I can't have her, then no-one can have her? If that's the case, then it's a very dark ending.

  • He did not murder her.He loved her,he fell passed on,but his spirit and his love 4 her lived on.I think she was unhappy with the other man and perhaps took her own life.I think and this is only my opinion the lady may have had a love 4 the little man*Shaneslas.Have a nice day!!!! tahmed78

  • Listen to the words.Everybody wants a special person in their lives.This person is more important than diamonds,fame,wealth.Bono has been on this earth before and speaks volumes.Ignore him at your peril.

  • gets right in the heart lovely song

  • About what time period is this video portraying? 1900? earlier?

  • defenitely the best ever!

  • The very best. Album version beats this too.

  • the edge is a cute man

  • true....but bono is hott.

  • The Edge dijo que es la acrobata quien muere, pero, de que muere?

    De la impresion de ver un enano volando? Lo mas seguro

  • wonderful song, wonderful singer....

    thanks

  • i love this song so powerful and emotional

  • this song is just perfect... like it...

  • pentru cunoscatori :acesta e PITICU PORNO ?

  • I don't get the video of the story, especially at the end when the little man was climbing. Who was supposed to die? Who died?

  • neither do i..actually who died?

  • Great tune man, thank you

  • THE BEST FROM U2

  • i was in a bar 1 night and i looked at a girl the way the short bloke does in this song ,she looked back the same way the girl does in this song ,ill never 4get wot she said 2 me,fuck off said she ,so i did.

  • Ha ha ha. Brilliant.

  • good , and sad song ..

  • i reckon,

    women seek material things i.e. they are more reasonable when it comes to love

    and on the other hand men seek for love,

    it's all in the genes, it came to be like this with many years of evolution, whe the men were hunters and the women had to hunt the bast hunter!

    this days its not about food, its more about the status in the society that comes from possesing rear goods.

    great song, great band

  • agree with you on what women and men want but it's not always like that..not always black and white...there are shades of grey in there as well sometimes...

    and yeah..U2 are amazing.always were and always will be.

  • Great video, great song.... both haunting & beautiful

  • This song is absolutely gorgeous,

    Bono vox´s voice is absolutely emotional and this video is a wonderful and sad story by itself.............The best

  • si señor¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡.......­tal vez la mas beautiful song de u2

  • This is my favourite U2 song. Can't wait to see them at Glastonbury next year

  • in all it's smallness it's still a great song

  • this is my favorite U2 song. it's so beautiful.

  • Great band ! For something new and different check out the "Shake For Me Now" video in my site

  • all I need

  • This song makes me feel something that i can't explain... Just beautiful.

  • u2 masterpiece!!! and great video....

  • wow a awesome video of love that is not recieved

  • ive seen that little guy in some tV show...... lol

  • que cancion!! la verdad q u2 es la mejor banda del mundo! eso creo yo, tengo 16 años y no hay una banda q me parezca TAN buena como U2...cuando vinieron a buenos aires fue lo mas...

  • No offense but this song is about what the video implies. Unrequited love. Having said that I hope you and your wife live happily ever after not the first U2 fans to make this mistake.

  • This was the song my wife and danced our first dance to at our wedding. I wanted to use Is this Love? by Bob Marley but my wife didn't think it was easy to dance to so we chose this instead. Being a U2 fan since the early 80s I didn't mind. Now, hearing the song will always bring back great memories!!!

  • Well, I'm 24 and thank my mum and dad to giving me all that music...

    It's not like I'm a junkie now - just addicted

  • poor little munchkin, a high maintance woman don`t need a maintance man

  • good video

  • God Save U2 !

  • This is one of my favorite songs by them and one of my favorite songs of all time.

  • The guitars at 3:08 make me feel like I'm in heaven. <3 I'm only 15 and I'm starting to like this group. No matter how old they are. :]

  • welcome to the world of u2 my friend, I'm only 13 and I've been listening to them since i was around 7.  Greatest band in the whole world.

  • funny, aim 42 and i agre...lol...this is also one of the greatest music vids ever....but it dont beat "Just" by Radiohead....

  • can anyone find me a code to put this on my myspace, PLEASE!!!

  • just click "MySpace" under the video,dude!

  • Had this song for my first dance at my wedding - love it.

  • After watching this video, I realized how shallow and ungrateful I am.

    Eye opening experience.

  • The thumb nail for this vid i thought it was Robbie williams

  • I really wanted this song to be played at my wedding. Who can deny the beauty of these words:

    "You say you'll give me eyes on a moon of blindness, a river in a time of dryness, a harbor in the tempest...when all I want is you."

  • I feel the same way, I just sent this song to my girl, soon to be wife

  • Musical Genius in action right here=)

  • U2 is my favourite group:)

  • I don't understand the 'twist' of the story but that brunette is quite the babe.

  • why such a mystery dont you see the little guy , throwing the ring to her grave

  • great video. this is the first time i'm watching it with attention, although i know lyrics for years

  • Comment removed

  • IT's definitly the girl cuz her boy frined is holding the casket!

  • It must be the girl since the litte guy is at the funeral..and at the very end one of the guy who walks away looks like the girls' boyfriend

    i just love the bald guy he looks like the quiet silent type who gets everything that's going on =)

  • i dont understand the end can someone fucking tell me who dies?? is the little man who dies at the end? or the girl?

  • has to be the girl based on the size of the casket

  • ur such a heightist, little man!!! i think ull find the word for us is midget!!!

    fucking wanker......and yes it was the MIDGET who died!!!

  • enuff with the language & chip on ur shoulder!!

    Society tells us the term u guys prefer is "little people"

    So now we do that & u want to be called a midget again?!

  • No the little man dosen't pass on she does! At the end od the video ,you see him throwing the ring in the cofin

  • what a sad song and video, the little man passed on? didnt he.

  • Marco questa la dedico a te...Ti amo!

  • The little guy reminds me of a young Robbie Williams from Take that days!

  • Beautiful.

  • This video was shot in Torvaianica...a place near Rome(Italy). I was there when they did it...it was amazing knowing them...they are such great people! Alessia

  • hehehex2 ST. great song. so relevant to my current sit

  • such an amazing video

  • Finally this video on youtube, i looked up about six months earlier and i didn't find it.Cool

  • This video was uploaded back in 2007. It was always there for you to find. You just didn't look hard enough. But atleast now "You found what you're looking for" :)

  • hehehe

  • This is my favorite song of U2 with "Pride".

    The live in Milan, is just fucking amazing you know, with the girl who Bono's taking in his arms.

    This man and his band has a big heart.

    God bless them.

  • U2 just brings back great memories of my first band, good stuff! If you have time, click on my name to check my channel and original songs, especially the songs called Lady Gray and In the Neighborhood (this one is slow so give it a full listen before judging), thx!!!

  • The lyrics are simply amazing!

  • ANNET... TU ERES TODO LO QUE QUIERO

  • Is that Robby williams Bro or what!

  • it was the woman that was in the box.. notice she wasn't with the precession that was standing at the coffin??? DUUUUUUUUUUHHHHHHHHH. if he was dead in the video why is he wearing a suit?

  • How the hell do I know? I SAID I was confused.

  • That dude is pretty good looking for a dwarf, I'm just vaguely confused as to why his coffin was so big.

  • his body was small, his spirit huge...

  • the coffin was for the chick

  • Such a great video for the song!!!!

  • It is the same man as in the movie In Bruges!!

  • They're filming midgets

  • The little man loves the girl but he feels that is not anought man for her so he desided to prove her that he is as capable as anybody. He had the accident and died but his soul did not, his spirit lives but now his love is unreachable and there is when she is dead to him.

    That is the way I see the video

  • ALL I WANT IS YOU.

    ALWAYS.

  • cinematic genious. amazing song, amazing video.

  • U2 have grown into a bigger and better group since Rattle!!

    This song is amazing! Been loving the guys for over 20 yrs now.

  • love this tune but sorry folks u2 aint been the same band since rattle and hum

  • Ha. They wrote the greatest song of all time in 1991. Its called One. Ur wrong man. Listen to Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own. They still write powerful lyrics and Bono still has an amazing voice.

  • sorry too upset a fan ,but i cant b wrong about my own tastes and preferences

  • Sorry to disagree but their greatest song is stay(faraway so close) although the ones you mention would definetly be in a top 5 along with 'When love comes to town'.Nice to see you know your stuff though.

  • best U2 song? try Bad

  • agrred totally , everybody always remembered Josua tree, Achtung Baby etc but most of them always forgot The Unforgettable Fire , which is alwayd a great album too ! my prefered are this one, Vertigo, no line form .... and achtung Baby

  • What's so great about U2 is that they have so many greats songs. That in fact your mood can change from thinking which is the greatest. I think "All I want is you" is one of their greatest songs among so many in their music catalogue. And this is why U2 is one of the greatest bands if not the greatest.

  • amazing song, became my favourite u2 song as soon as i heard it

  • Just curious in when you first heard it?

  • about a month before my orginal comment i reckon!

  • at the end of the vid, you see the midget man standing at the foot of the grave. the woman is only shown in flashbacks. thus the woman is probably the one who died. we don't know when the funeral took place. maybe she was so torn up between the two guys that she ended up taking her own life, and the midget never got to propose to her... just my two cents. it doesnt make sense that the an adult, no matter how tall, would just flat-out die from falling like ten, fifteen feet.

  • the midget*

    ps that part at 3:30 basically sums up why i love U2

  • was that wee-man?

  • Possibly my wedding song

  • The wedding song of the century, for sure. Amazingly enough, more people havn't picked up on it and used it for what the lyrics are worth.

  • sry to dissapoint u but i don't get what the song is giving out......or i don't get it....may be cuz im young so that's one of the reason i guess.....but i'll watch it again in 20 years time and see if i get what this song really means..

    but atm, i don't know / don't care / don't wanna care! who U2 is.....xD Not JK

  • watch?v=He5f-Gnuo2o

  • I met my wife with this song 20 years ago.I was 16.  I still love her.....I still love U2

  • That's so sweet. Congrats to you guys :)

  • amazing

  • My favourite U2 song...Very underrated

  • Looks lake a Jorodowsky film..

  • I don't get it ? who is in the ground?

  • The Midget that is in love with the woman. He climbs up the ladder to show her he can swing... slips off and falls to his death!

  • Omg,it seems like that's what happened,but then at the end,the little guy is seen tossing the ring that he bought for her,in the grave!! Omg,,the lady must be the one who died,but how did she die? Did he fall on her when he slipped from the trapeze??? LOL This vid has always been confusing to me *__*

  • Thats what I thought but ..you see him walkin away from the grave ? Thanks for getting me right . PeaceEddy

  • Comment removed

  • this song is magic, I love it!!! It breaks my heart, poor little dwarf... I luv all this song, and the video, the guitar is magic, the lyrics are incredible, I luv it!!!!

  • This just an awesome Song. U2 Rocks.

  • Great♫

  • didn't even watch the video...I think of my love and picture him when I play it.

  • Does anyone else feel that this video doesn't come close to doing this song justice?

  • this song does not need a video just let your imagination let you see what it looks like

  • agreed :)

  • Greatest music video of all time.

  • wow... amazing!!!LOVE THIS SONG, LOVE BONO, ADAM LARRY AND THE EDGE...LOVE U2!!!

  • How did she die and whoareyou342 that does not make any sense

  • dwarf stabbed her with fork

  • wat fork

  • I don't think a music video has made me cry before...

  • This song is so deep, that's it's ok to cry in the video. It's perfect.

  • The boy in the video looks liek a very young robbie williams xD

  • This song is one of my all time favorite songs... very meaningful, I like that.

  • Yes it is the lyrics that are meaningful, not the video.

  • The video tells the story, it's just very critical and not so explicit.

  • please someone can tell me who died?i'm confused!!!

  • that beautiful girl :)

  • oh....and what's the way???

  • His love for her died. He realizes that it's not worth trying and he's over her and the love he had for her. And he literaly is over it because it's 6 feet under.

    But, the love is always there (physically in the ground) and can be felt again.

    Perhaps one day...

  • Llamas! It -must- be good.

  • Dylie :D

  • es una de mis canciones favoritas de siempre, me la llevaria hasta la tumba, que sensaciones y que video, es una de esas q sientes hasta en las entrañas, yo le llamo visceral, excelente ,para la eternidad

  • beautiful!

  • El tema, como tal, del video, es similar a un cortometraje de Charles Chaplin, titulado "el circo", pero con final diferente. U2, el mejor de todos los tiempos

  • esta cancion es increible. Belleza auditiva, sensaciones....

  • such a brilliant song love it

  • never get tired of this song and vid .....they dont make em like this anymore ....SAD......

  • u2 had some good shit in the 80's

  • The midget looks like Robbie Williams....lol.

  • haha:D i agree

  • I love Vertigo, With Or Without You and this song so much! ='/

  • I'm confused. I'm feeling rather little about now. great vid though. fantastic song. Maybe thats the whole point.

  • that sthe best thing about this video, it confuses u, just like love
