U2- Sleep Like a Baby Tonight (Official-Unofficial) Music Video

"This track talks about the past problems and current crisis in the Catholic church, where crimes such as rampant child abuse are coming to light. The main character in the song is a member of the church who is either guilt-ridden from his own sins, yet trying to deflect and project the blame elsewhere just so he can sleep at night, or a member of the church who knows full well of the atrocities being committed by his organization, but because he himself has done nothing wrong, he can sleep like a baby. It begs the individuals in the Church to take responsibility for their faith, whether guilty directly, or through being complicit by inaction."

[@KLRGT500KR]

Not many people know, this song is extremely dark, sarcastic and full of condemnation. It is about catholic priest scandal of child abuse and the church coverup. Bono is actually singing to the abusive catholic priests and the church. This song is truly haunting especially when you consider the suffering and pain an abused child goes through.

[@LanaVegana]

I figured that out when the boy kneeled at 1:14. So sad that the very person so many people trust in is so downright evil...

[@Tbonyandsteak]

KLRGT500KR listen to words, it is about naive dreamers. Idiots

[@spiritisalive1]

I was working out in my gym, when the song came on my Spotify. A few references in the song, I was like, "This sounds like the Catholic Church." I googled the video when I got home. Ran across this, I was all like 😲😮😳🤯.

The second half of this lp is a masterpiece

[@urologiaperuana]

Morning, your toast, your tea and sugar Read about the politician’s lover Go through the day like knife through butter Why don’t you You dress in the colours of forgiveness Your eyes as red as Christmas Purple robes are folded on the kitchen chair You’re gonna sleep like a baby tonight In your dreams everything is alright Tomorrow dawn's like someone else’s suicide You’re gonna sleep like a baby tonight Dreams It’s a dirty business, dreaming Where there is silence and not screaming Where there’s no daylight, there’s no healing No, no You’re gonna sleep like a baby tonight In your dreams everything is alright Tomorrow dawn's like a suicide But you’re gonna sleep like a baby tonight Hope is where the door is When the church is where the war is Where no one can feel no one else’s pain You’re gonna sleep like a baby tonight In your dreams everything is alright Tomorrow dawn's like a suicide But you’re gonna sleep like a baby tonight Sleep like a baby tonight Like a bird, your dreams will take flight Like St. Francis covered in light You’re gonna sleep like a baby tonight

I sensed stress when the song poped up while I was driving. Not until I looked up the music video did I realize the true dark subject. My deep respect, Bono.

[@MarcAl79]

Sleep Like A Baby Tonight and The Troubles are great songs and the best songs on SOI, both also sound very different compared to the rest of the album

[@seasgarage]

Thats kind of like serenity and voodoo for godsmack. Both are opposite from their normal heavier stuff, but so good. No comparison to these guys, but U2 really knows how to hide messages, and this really shows that.

[@akifm6160]

His high note pitch “hope where the door is” “when the church is where the war is” just hits different!

[@jaimeluciano5934]

I love the song, I do not get tired of listening the song over and over perhaps I am a weird, listening to the song's lyrics and watching the video is a total different animal, based on the lyrics while listening, I portrayed perhaps someone that just woke up from being stoned walking toward the kitchen getting his toast, tea and sugar and thinking when he gets to the office, he will continue reading his article about the politicians lovers, so the day will flight without he noticed because he was so deep into that article. Then he is wearing black and white, the colors of forgiveness and his purple robe is hanging on the kitchen chair that he left it there when he woke up before putting his toast in the toaster while heating the water in the tea pot. I understand that the chorus is just his thoughts in his mind that he will do it again (get stone) again with whatever substances he is using. Finally, when he said someone else's suicide, is like how he is feeling when he wakes up. At least the first paragraph of the song led me to think that way, but when I saw the video was very disturbing for me, how an adult male abuse of a innocent life with power over nothing, and his little friends in the dorm are looking what is going on and they only thing that they can do is to turn the blind eye or look to the other side knowing that they would be a victim next. Well, that was my interpretation of the song, disturb.

[@manart3954]

this music is just questioning how people who claims to teach god can be so subhuman, so dirty so cruel , can sleep like a baby while children who suffer at their hands will probably be one more suicide in the future .

[@marksmith6205]

The bible reads " and the day shall come when they shall forbid them to marry, verily ( truly) i say unto you from such turn away. " The most unchristian of concepts is to sware an oath and hope to rely on self will to keep it " for i say unto you swear not by God" . Forgive yourself first and then you will forgive others , we are so weak but He who forgives and is the source of Love is so strong. Do not be proud in this but love the weak who put their strength in faith in themselves. Love and forgive and You shall live Forever .

”He reached down from heaven and rescued me; he drew me out of deep waters.“ -Psalms‬ ‭18‬:‭16‬ ”For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.” -Luke‬ ‭2‬:‭11‬ ‭ ”I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you today that I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse. Choose life so that you and your descendants may live, love the Lord your God, obey him, and remain faithful to him. For he is your life, and he will prolong your days as you live in the land the Lord swore to give to your ancestors” -Deuteronomy‬ ‭30‬:‭19‬-‭20 We ALL need Jesus and we ALL have a crucial choose to make: God or satan. Every thought, action and deed is a choice that serves one or the other. But with Jesus, oh how beautiful the walk with Him. His yoke is light, His burden easy, not so with the other guy… We should all read the bible to gain understanding and wisdom of the spiritual battle that is happening all around us today. Kanoe Gibson has an excellent verse by verse bible study. Listen to Skip Hetzik or Padtor Paul LeBoutillier. God can and will change your life with His Word. ”“Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock.“ -Matthew‬ ‭7‬:‭24‬ ‭ESV‬‬ ”“Let not your hearts be troubled.

[@WhyteHawk.StevenLeeHenry]

I ended up liking this song more then the other on the album. This was automatically on my iPhone from purchase. So I decided to get a glimpse into the story and find the video.. finding out Bono was the lead singer... and the video places you in the realm of the lyrics. I was hypnotized by the visual of this track. I was shocked they hit it so openly without fear.! This track was brave and courageous. I’m not sure of their true intent of opinion. But this has got to have the elites overwhelmed with joy. They got exactly what they wanted. Did the devil win?

[@thegameshowguy1]

I exactly know what you're talking about. I listened to Katy Perry's "Dark Horse", and judging by the tone of the song, I actually thought that Katy would be walking down this dark alley and she runs into a dark horse. When I saw the music video, I was shocked because it's too bright and colourful and above all, it takes place in Ancient Egypt.

[@frankstoeffler4006]

I'm not Catholic nor is Jesus. I belong to no religion and Jesus only belonged to Judaism. I dislike all religion like Jesus who told that all repeated prayers without sincerity are just tinkling bells in the ears of God. We all want our blessed Savior to return as our King on Earth. Paul (Bono) is wonderful for pointing out injustice in this world. Please keep shining your light on injustice. God created the Earth and all, but not this world. Humans created this present world of darkness and until our Lord returns, let's solve our problems. We will be better as people to do this best we can with the tools we have been given from God/Jesus. I sweep and clean my home daily. It's time for all churches and the Catholic church/Vatican to do the same. Gordon

[@sonjamorin7714]

People also have to remember this: First of all, it's not the Church itself that did these horrendous actions, it was severely misguided individuals who needed aid mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Secondly, the Church - since the uncovering of these actions during the reign of Pope St. John Paul II - has done a lot in order to stop the abuse, bring the perpetrators to justice, and to bring comfort to those who were affected. Third, the Catholic Church is not the only organization which has gone through a scandal like this. Many other organizations have gone through the same thing. For example, the Anglican Church had many more cases with a lot more victims, yet that never seems to come to light.

[@CUSBAND]

The reason why it's worse when it happens in a church is because y'all act so holier-than-thou towards us then it turns out your priests have been sexually abusing little boys and it's being covered up lol.
