Go down the U2 hole and discover one hell of a band. Nothing else like them.

[@brettscott8288]

Absolutely ❤❤ possibly the best

[@jeanharris2408]

At the Live Aid Concert, Bono was singing and he looked down and noticed that a young woman was being pushed up against the wall by the huge crowd. Afraid she might be crushed to death, he signaled to the other band members to just keep repeating the instrumentals and then he jumped down and pulled the girl up. Of course, talking was out because of the band and the huge number of people in the stadium. So, he just pulled her to him and they danced until he was satisfied that she was okay. So he gave her a kiss, had someone take her backstage to be sure she hadn't broken any bones, and went back to the finish their performance. Now, that's class!

I saw them live for the first time last year. It was my dream and I cried like I knew I would❤️

[@lynnhoffman247]

The Edge, the guitar player, is instantly recognizable once you hear a few of their songs. “Bad” “Where the Streets Have No Name” “Running to Stand Still” “Beautiful Day” “Acrobat” “Kite” “All I Want is You””Mysterious Ways” Also, their Super Bowl halftime show is considered the best ever by many 🔥🎶🔥

[@tiacoubrough8135]

City of blinding lights too

[@candidequixote6026]

Rickenbacker guitars have a very distinct sound and weren't used to much by rock bands from that era. The ones who do are iconic though.

[@brettscott8288]

The best SB show by far....it just hit all the right notes. Literally 😢 1:35

[@darkjedi447]

One of the most beautiful songs ever written. I can't put my finger on why its so hauntingly amazing. They wrote this song around a time when they were not getting along as band members and were seriously considering breaking you. You can feel their pain and strain in their relationship in the words of the song. Thanks for your review. Keep smiling🤘🙂

[@darkjedi447]

Auto correct - meant breaking up, not breaking you, sorry🤣

[@johnbassett7963]

It’s beautifully haunting because of Bono’s voice

[@adrianrussell580]

It’s the song that kept them from not falling apart....

[@alexandriaocasio-smollett5078]

Exactly right. The story of how this happened that you were talking about is one of my favorite stories in 20th century music. Coming off the massively successful Joshua tree album/tour, they wanted to change their sound almost entirely. The band was about to break up. They couldn’t get along. They couldn’t agree on the direction of the band. They were in the studio for months with hardly anything to show for it... Then while Edge is messing around with a few chord progressions(in the middle of the song that ended up being Mysterious Ways), he hits on something that basically made everyone stop arguing, stop what they were doing.. and listen to what they just heard. Then within a matter of minutes they basically had the entire structure for One finished. Everything fell into place for the entire album from that point forward. As of 2022, the band has won the most Grammys of any band and is officially the longest running band in the history of rock with out any lineup changes. The story is almost too on the nose to believe that story was true. It sounds like some narrative from a movie.. And I would probably have a hard time believing it if it wasn’t recorded. They go through this in the Achtung Baby documentary with the audio recordings at the time. It’s amazing.

[@isadorealire5722]

The key of Dm always gets me for some reason. But an all universe lyricist just makes it unbelievable.

"We are one, but we´re note the same. We have to carry each other." 😥 One of the best lines ever.

[@leonh.kalayjian6556]

Yes and what I don't like about of these reaction channels is they generalize the reaction and don't go into lyrics very much. I remember one guy rewinding Dylan lyrics and getting blown away with the words. Another reaction video didn't say one word about lyrics but mentioned how they love his voice and harmonica. Here the guys are getting goosebumps and calling this a masterpiece, but very little about the lyrics....

[@annaconway7009]

The lyrics are " We GET to carry each other There is a difference in having to and getting to help our fellow brothers and sisters.

[@brianward9928]

Do you want to play Jesus to the lepers in your head Has to be one off the most loaded lines ever in a song

[@starlightshimmery]

One of my all time favourites. I was lucky to see U2 live a few times, the feeling in their shows was highest level incredible. Whenever I feel down, listening to U2 pulls me up, connects in to my “Irish heartbeat”. Their songwriting is second to none. True poets of music. Can you imagine hearing a whole stadium singing this song together. It takes you to another place. They do big anthemic songs & perfect intimate songs & it all translates so beautifully live. The ZooTv tour live shows were my favourite if you can see those but they have SO many other great moments to see. A lesser known song but one of my best life memories is being near the roof of the outdoor stadium in Sydney on a starry night as they performed “Love is Blindness” at the end of the show after we’d all been on this amazing journey - it became other worldly, stars and the universe filling the screens, Edge’s jingly guitar, Bono’s haunting voice - then Edge cut in with what became one of the most powerful booming solos I ever heard. Will never ever forget how it made me feel, totally mesmerising! 🌌 (found it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/roa7h3hqfKqqo8U ) I believe this was also filmed the same week I saw them in Sydney, I was at the show when Adam (bass) didn’t perform. By the time that final fuzzy part of the solo kicks in, I was almost in outer space - it felt like the music was inside me and expanding out to the sky all at once. I could go on forever about their music lol, this is just one song but such a memory. The ZooTv tour was also artistically incredibly interesting, with Bono exploring his “Fly” persona, the antithesis of the earnest rock star he was, becoming the decadent bloated washed up cynical “shadow side” by the end of the show (hence the gold suit and devil horns). This duality was so well integrated into that show. They were brilliant at cutting to the truth & pathos of a lyric, an emotion and somehow being confrontational and unifying all at once. Truly important artists for the world and all time ✌️

[@hasinurrahman4119]

I will give highest recommendation to the song you mentioned ..... Love is Blindness..... Edge's solo is simply heavenly ..... A masterclass !!

[@soniasurija8880]

Bono is a showman & when you see them live he knows how to communicate with the fans, great Irish band

Listen to U2 at live aid they did a fantastic set that day, after queen who were no 1,they were next for being brilliant

[@meganclick6002]

This was an amazing response. U2 are a wonderful live band. They've been a group for over 40 years, having started in 76 and having released their first album in 1980. They have harder rocking songs like Until the end of the world, which was also on Achtung Baby, beautiful ballads like One, Stay, and With or Without you, and anthems like Where the Streets Have No Name, Beautiful Day, Bad, and City of Blinding Lights. Personally, I think you would enjoy performances from Zoo TV Sydney. Some great picks from that show are Running to Stand Still/transition into Streets, Until the end of the world, With Or Without You, and Stay.

Amazing band from the 80s to the early 2000s. Bono always had a great voice and the lyrics are universal. Even if you don't speak English, you can understand the emotion he displays.

I haven't heard this song before and it is very emotional. I do like U2 and have quite a few songs by them - two of them I especially like are Vertigo and With or Without You. They have a huge catalogue of songs. Also a couple of great Scottish bands from the 1970s/1980s are Simple Minds (Don't You (forget about me)), and Big Country (In a Big Country, Fields of Fire). Many thanks for the reaction, guys.

I didn't see Freddy live, but I have seen this live twice and it's one incredible live band and vocalist and show man too.

[@cosmicmatt8]

This song touches the soul so deeply but the video expresses the emotion of Bono and the other members of U2's admiration and love towards each other and is succcinctly expressed in the stanza: // Well, it's too late tonight // To drag the past out into the light // We're one, but we're not the same // We get to carry each other, carry each other // One In essence, we all need to move forward in life but not forget we have take care of each other regardless of the past albeit not evil actions, but more the trials and tribulations we all go through individually and collectively as humans tied to this mortal coil because life is too short.

The album this song is taken from is U2's masterpiece in many peoples opinion. It turns out this song is actually commenting on the relationships in the band as well as actually saving the band at the time. U2 were ready to quit as a band before this tune appeared out of nowhere. Would love to see you guys react to some of their less well known tunes like 'a sort of homecoming ' or 'Hawkmoon 269'.

[@feel4films889]

This song is a classic masterpiece . Maybe it's about love but maybe the bitterness of it? Idk, I think many songs are free for interpretation only the one who wrote it knows exactly what's it all about "you ask me to enter but then you make me crawl and I can't be holding on to what you got when all you got is hurt" I can't say I understand it perfectly but I don't care, is so sweet but sad and heart broken at the same time...ONE of the most beautiful songs ever created

U2 burst on the world stage during the "troubles" of Ireland, Irish against Irish. They were political from the start. Rattle and Hum is a good recording to listen to, to really understand them musically. Bullet the Blue Sky, suggested listening.

[@IllumeEltanin]

Oh. My. Stars... What a day to ask about live U2. While this performance does not feature One, for me it is one of U2's, a band from Ireland, iconic live performances. This is short, because it was the halftime show at the 2002 Super Bowl. It only features two songs: Beautiful Day and Where the Streets Have No Name although a write up about it says something called MLK is between the two, but I am unfamiliar with that one if it is. Do react to Beautiful Day and Where the Streets Have No Name before you watch this, so you're familiar with them. Keep in mind as you're watching that this event happened five months after the attacks on US soil on 09/11/2001 (or, as the rest of the world writes it 11/09/2001). I'm not going to spoil the performance and say why. But do keep it in mind. U2's performance was genius and iconic. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pnmYpXudjbhgaK8
