U2 - Desire (Official Music Video)

[@fabioaranha2]

"Rattle and Hum" is very underrated. Just to start, "Desire" and "Angel of Harlem" are among U2's greatest songs, in my opinion. The other studio tracks are also strong. "All I Want is You", for instance, is beautiful. I also really like "Van Diemen's Land". And the live part is good too. The covers were well chosen and came out great. U2 was at its peak. Ambitious? Yes. But the result is a fine companion piece to "The Joshua Tree". I think the album aged very well.

[@EvaCDeere]

I have the CD "Rattle And Hum" and the last new one they came out with "Songs of Experience". "Desire" is my favorite song. It got me hooked on them. I love their songs. There's nothing nasty in them.

Hendrix bridged the gap between rock and blues. U2 never gets credit for what they did for music. They bridged the gap between rock, blues, pop, classical, opera, gospel, and middle eastern. This band had the talent of bringing out simplicity of virtually anything, and making it sound great!

They are forever blessed but Mike G still wants to bite their asses because he's probably a jerk he says jerk is oil things and thinks he can get away with it well not really I just rebutted his butthead attitude...
