Bullet The Blue Sky (Live From Paris 1987) - U2

[kja427]

The older they get, they do a better version of this tune. Popmart's version is better than ZooTV's version. Check that out.

[jmactemin]

@kja427 THAT'S TRUE, MUCH BETTER, and I think the pop version is even better, but It's an incredible song no matter what version you're listening,

[Barnabas45]

Possibly Their best song right behind New Year's Day!

[IpcressRecordings]

Before the flashiness of the Zoo TV, Zooropa and Pop tours, Bono had to make his own light show...Seriously though, great wall of sound guitar. Apparently Edge studied Tom Verlaine.

[UncleSamFisher]

@IpcressRecordings

ZooTV and Zooropa tour are the same -.-

[Niesha18C]

\m/ AWESOMENESS  \m/

[basvossen]

U2 are fakers

[Niesha18C]

I find this song SEXY!! especially at 2:00 when he starts to moan ;P anyone else??

[flowerpower3248]

@Niesha18C Hell yes! Bono was damn sexy in his day:)

[Niesha18C]

@flowerpower3248 yea.... good times!!

[joewillant]

It was actually shown live for the Island Records 25th anniversary along with Stand By Me, C'mon Everybody and Running To Standstill. The special was being broadcast from London. I know it all when it comes to these guys, no-one can beat me!! Not an anorak, just a good memory!!

[TheFly212]

Holy shit. The Edge is killin' it.

[scottyhaz82]

Bono channeling a little Jim Morrison with the mid-song poetry? Nice vid!

[NorthGateProductions]

Freakin amazing!!!!!!I wish I was there

[Caulfield789]

This is my favorite U2 song by a mile, but calling it a "smash hit" is a bit of a stretch, don't you think? I mean, it wasn't even released as a single.

[TheUncleJane1]

this is metal!! :-D

[tap22]

i really want to know the 1 person who dislikes this video so that way i can purchase a plane ticket travel to wherever they are and have a serious discussion on why they don't like this?????????

[osheal]

at 4.27... i always break down lauging...

[ozzfann]

ik ik "

arms"....i ment that

[ozzfann]

..."into the hearts of america"  baddass! \m/

[luvm1chael]

thats what i like to see...no dislikes:)))

[CZMephisto1973]

From which DVD/VHS this video was taken?

[LongLiveRock105]

@CZMephisto1973 It's from the DVD that came with the Joshua Tree Deluxe Box Set. It has a CD with the remastered original album, a disc of bonus tracks, and a DVD with this entire concert. Pretty sick.

[tap22]

Listen to the sound Edge World produces!!! the man is a genius ladies and gentleman!

[3third3eye3]

For me...the best rock band in the world!!

[boxpine69]

if you buy the joshua tree deluxe box set, it has this concert on dvd with it as an extra, so well worth buying!

[boxpine69]

bono mentions london, because this song was broadcast live to the tv show the tube, which was based in london! im such a u2 anorak!

[brokebackgio]

The song that got me into U2 for good... Where is it taken from? Is there a dvd release from that tour?

[ClickLip]

so cool

thank you!

[bottleracket]

nice to see them play it so close to the album version

[allendj81]

from all eras

[danimal97520]

Anyone else notice the video is label live in Paris and yet Bono talks about London at the start.......

[LongLiveRock105]

@danimal97520 Yeah, I didn't catch that. Before saying that, however, he says "Sunny skies over Paris." Why he goes on to mention London is anyone's guess. Lol Bono...

[TinaHulbert1]

@LongLiveRock105 He mentions London as this was broadcast live on the BBC. I remember watching it!! Im sure i must still have it on video somewhere as I taped it....

[jlalewicz]

@LongLiveRock105 Think he forgot where he was???lol

[planetcarlos]

@danimal97520 this was during a hot summer period in 1987, I watched this live on TV in England at the time, it was the peak of the Joshua Tree and we were all blown away.....fcuking most powerful song and performance I have ever seen this version.

[terrestre86]

Wish they'd played it during this tour! It's one of my all time favourites!

[rowdymax1]

This song reminds me so much of Jimi Hendrix' "Machine Gun"...gives me goosebumps. The slide solo makes me cry, it's so....beautiful.

[zebra9479974]

And outside is America

[iangatsby21]

Im glad they released this concert on dvd...

ALL u2 concerts should be released profesionally on dvd!!!

[LuvMyGr8DaneGuinness]

@iangatsby21 is the DVD available in stores?

[iangatsby21]

Yes, it is, but you have to buy the 20th anniversary joshua tree remastered thingy!! :(

[LuvMyGr8DaneGuinness]

@iangatsby21 You know what? I *do* have the 20th anniversary JT remastered set; my husband bought it for me, but for some reason, I totally forgot that the dvd came w/ it, duh:( But thanks for your reply. I am off to watch the dvd:)

[iangatsby21]

@LuvMyGr8DaneGuinness

oh, youl love it!!! ive never seen a joshua tree in such good quality!!!!

[GeoAl09]

i love this song but i love the "chicago:vertigo 2005" live version from the dvd. way better. they've gotten better live as they have gotten older from what ive seen on here.

[andisetsfire]

perfect.... amazing... i love u2 , this is one of their best songs

[janathen94]

Hands down my favorite song from Joshua Tree...but then again, with or without you is in a class by itself...but this song rocks...100...200 (!) times better than the rest of the album

[brewtality101]

this is epic

[googo151]

Brilliant! What a sound and what a band!
