One of the most underrated songs of all time!

[@jwhat8515]

Agreed

[@ingrid8994]

Ashley James Baller Yes!

[@hshshshhahsbs8140]

That is the true word of all times

178 likes on your comment is also underrated for the opinion you typed.

[@dann.pakpahan]

This comment comes from he who can not creep into the mainstream nature of u2 life..

[@slackstarfish8133]

I still think this is one of the greatest songs of all time

[@kissycake13]

I completely agree!! This song has been on my favorites playlist since this video was posted on here and I love when they play in the devil wears prada!

[@pawelsiedlecki1121]

Thank you, U2, very much! With love from Ukraine! 🇺🇦💪

The intro guitar and piano always gives me goosebumps.

Yep me too - awesome opener - a true stadium epic!

I had the same feelings; that song was the one that started me following U2.

Picture this. You're in a long 9 hour flight from Sydney to Bangkok. You leave Sydney at 6:45 p.m. and just as you're about to arrive, 1 a.m. at night, you can't see anything but clouds. You start listening to this, and just after the piano intro, the clouds disperse, and you see that beautiful city covered in lights. You can't help but think that it's the most fitting song for an arrival like that. Got the picture? Because I don't...I lived that moment, and will do again when I return home. =D

[@karinnie66]

DecemberProjects yes

[@karinnie66]

DecemberProjects i see it is been 8 years. I just read this. And i see clearly what you saw because of your description. It must have been mindblowing. The view and the music..magical..

This U2 song city of blinding lights is a truly Amazing wonderful song 😊 from a 60 years old Irishman fan 😊

[@nizzepower]

Even though this is a newer song and those aren't usually counted as classics, I find this song to be one of my favourites by U2. it is pure magic.

[@natebeach]

I agree, my thoughts exactly!

[@rageshgopinathan]

True.. it is magic.. out of this world.. the music, the lyrics and the video.. my fav since 2005

[@fayelibasse8203]

u2 joue pour moi seul

[@steffanmelody]

Something about this song

[@psychedeliccarrie5921]

I know this is 5 years old, but now we're as far away from when How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb was released as War was when HTDAAB was released. So yeah, seeing albums released in my childhood become classics is making me feel really old.

[@AbhaySingh-vc5rg]

This song is a representation of Paris for me. Specially the sparkling lights on the Eiffel tower and all the gold adornments on the monuments of Paris. Whenever I'm there, for the night this is just the perfect background music. Gives you very 2000's feels

[@xrysakrm8018]

Devil's wear Prada!!City-Lights-Fashion!

[@gaile3765]

@abhay Singh A lot of people think song is about Paris because of The Devil Wears Prada.. It was actually written for NYC The last tour dud when played this song showed the beauty if the City they were performing in.

[@JL-qo1hg]

fuuuck! im jealous. I saw them in Edmonton.😏

This is most definitely U2's best song! U2 is why God gave us ears!

They came to Buenos Aires in 2006. Vertigo Tour. The opening show was this amazing song. Remember that precise momet with tears in ny eyes. One of the moments in my life. First U2 gig on my life

[@terryah2136]

For me this was the end of U2's golden era. It was all downhill from here ;(

[@nymphyted]

THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA. SHIT I LOVE THIS SONG. IT'S SOUNDTRACK IS AWESOME.

[@mangrove]

Proof positive that U2 songs are meant to be heard and experienced live. I was underwhelmed by this song until I saw it live at the Palace of Auburn Hills in Oct. 2005. The opening notes by Edge send a shiver down my spine still.

[@jeffroegner1499]

Fellow Michigander who saw them in Rome in 2005 at the Olympic stadium. 60k people under a full moon. This tune sticks out most of all. 😇😇

[@onisuwaplay5464]

The more you see, the less you know The less you find out as you go I knew much more then Than I do now Neon-heart, day-glow eyes A city lit by fireflies They're advertising in the skies For people like us And I miss you when you're not around I'm getting ready to leave the ground Oh, you look so beautiful tonight In the city of blinding lights Don't look before you laugh Look ugly in a photograph Flash bulbs, purple irises The camera can't see I've seen you walk unafraid I've seen you in the clothes you made Can you see the beauty inside of me? What happened to the beauty I had inside of me? And I miss you when you're not around I'm getting ready to leave the ground Oh, you look so beautiful tonight In the city of blinding lights Time, time, time, time, time Won't leave me as I am But time won't take the boy out of this man Oh, you look so beautiful tonight Oh, you look so beautiful tonight Oh, you look so beautiful tonight In the city of blinding lights The more you know, the less you feel Some pray for, others steal Blessings are not just for the ones who kneel Luckily

There is something so incredibly delicate about this song.

[@kevinperera131]

And yet they still sound powerfully godlike even when live. This is beautiful.

Liatening to this, I can understand why U2 was one of Angels and Airways' influences

[@rageshgopinathan]

Long live U2.. we need more songs with this energy and awesome lyrics

[@RudeeOlivier]

U2 is my oldest love in music. Bono's voice, Edge's great sound and guitar playing and the solid and original spine of the band with Larry and Adam who are always forgotten... Just one of the best bands still active that never changed a band member and that was never afraid to take chances. I would love your input on our cover of U2's Ordinary Love. Maybe we succeeded, maybe not, we let you be the judge if you have two or three minutes to spare and a thumb up or down to add, come listen and judge us here :-) : kzbin.info/www/bejne/r5q4nIVsjrqBnbc

[@chriskrulik2010]

Bono wrote this to his wife when they were touring through Paris. They were going through a rough patch, and he wanted to express his undying love for her.

[@southsider3542]

I actually believe this song is about them performing in New York City during the Elevation Tour right after 9/11

[@Jay_2023]

..“The more you know, the less you feel Some pray for, others steal Blessings are not just for the ones who kneel Luckily..”

[@ThePhog]

Time, time, time, time Time won't leave me as I am But time won't take the boy out of this man

[@aaronbenson2767]

I saw them open up with this song at the Vertigo tour in Atlanta in 2005, and by the first chorus, the whole crowd was singing along caught up in the swelling euphoria that was overtaking the entire arena. You won't see that at any other concert.

[@TheVesQ]

I love how Bono lifts his hands towards Heaven in the beginning and in the end.

I feel you, this is the only band I give a damn about seeing live. When they came to SA in 2010, I had class the entire day the tickets went on sale. By the time I finally reached a computer all the tickets were long gone. Fastest sold out concert in SA at the time.

[@lordonard]

***** Green with envy right now.

[@keii23]

rhcp5351 they were here last june 16 in montreal for 4 days. i went at the back of the parking lot where the other fans were waiting, he went up to us i shook his hand and told him i listened to his song ever since i was 7 yrs old back in the philippines. he smiled at me and said "thank u for appreciating our music" i wasnt able to get an autograph because he said "Im sorry i have to work fast, im late" watching U2 was a bucket list, meeting him up close in person was a bonus! it was awesome :) i hope you get to see them play live! Good luck!

[@hopelyss3847]

I just saw them 3 days ago! I'm telling you best band ever!! Bono's voice seems to get better with age, and I'm only 22, but at that concert it seems like I've listened to their music for as long as they've been a band.

Heard this song at a job I had 2 years ago and totally thought it was Coldplay. I searched and searched but couldn’t find it again as I didn’t know the name. I recently watched The Devil Wears Prada for the first time and I heard it again and it kind of blew my mind. Crazy how you find something you’ve been looking for in the weirdest places.

This was my "favourite song in the world" when I was 10 ie 19 years ago. Pretty sure that predated KZbin... I think I'd downloaded it to my computer from some dodgy link on the net and played it over and over and over and over again. Such a sweet angelic song.

[@anapavlovic5521]

The thing i like about their live performances is that they don't have to have backup dancers or so. They just go on stage,start singing and make magic. That's the thing that Beyonce, Taylor, Selena and the other todays singers, will never be able to do.
