They had this incredible connection with their audience. As a fan off the early years they just sort of felt to me like they were "my band". I grew up right along side of them, same age, same year, same questions and passions. Their shows were a room full of people who I think felt the same.

Yep that era was truly unbelievable. They were magnetic. It's a time period etched forever in my memory because of them and their music. I can remember every stupid thing I did within that year based on the release of UF album through LIve Aid

Ashwin Ramdas This is my U2. The honest, meaningful and relevant U2. This band couldn't have written "Until the End of the World" or "One", given their sophistication. However, I remember Edge criticizing The Clash in 1983 for having become parodies of themselves. I couldn't stand U2 post 1991, ironically because they became willful parodies of themselves. Having a hedge fund principal as a lead singer would do that to a politically self aware band.

Azabaxe This is also my U2. I am a fan of U2 from this times and in the early 90´s i still U2 because they transform yourselves to the opposite of everything they are in the 80´s. Some years ago i forgiven. But i still identify with this part of the U2 history. THIS IS MY U2 BAND. And i hope that the time machine be invented before i died to can travel to this and others U2 concerts.

Azabaxe Been a fan and seeing them perform since 1983, Yeah, they do that to themselves today sometimes since 1991 but even U2 can't hide their own raw energy, indescribable talent, and magnificent power they possess during their live performances when they decide to quit messing around, put their game faces on, stop with the fluff for a few numbers and get real like they used to. I was at their first U.S. show of Songs of Innocence Tour in San Jose, after they got their groove on after a few numbers they went back to basics and blew away the audience. A strictly musical and vocal performance, when Bono began PERFECTLY singing "Every Breaking Wave" with Edge hitting those haunting piano notes- the house was brought down. A lot of people there didn't even know what the song was that Bono was singing and they were still into it.

Romansilvercoin I saw that tour in 4 different cities (Toronto, NYC, Belfast, and Dublin), and EVERY time that they played that, the audience was damn near silent. Also with far more people that I'd have expected singing along, given the backlash that that album received, due to the release methodology. The same goes for Raised By Wolves! Damn near everyone there seemed to not only know the song, but to reeeaaaalllly be into it!

Just imagine if a time machine transported U2 from the early 80s until present time. The youth of today would love them. My 13 year old who is very musical, loves the music from the 80s. He says music today just isn't as good

This is when Bono was fucking crazy...... climbing over everything...getting into the audiences.... his own bandmates wondering WTF is he doing.... really exciting for a audience though and absolutely mesmerizing!!! Part of the reason for their huge success

They are the greatest band ever. The made the best rock song, one. The made the best rock tour, zoo tv tour. Today they look back and sometime try to make money on old stuff. It would be better to let it stop if the creactivity is gone. I will always love you. ❤️❤️❤️
