Yes, amongst many others... Where the streets have no name (official music video) would be a great follow up song... Shows the power of U2 in people.. It's rock n roll, poetry and social commentary in one song.. Dope reaction
Asking U2 fans for their favorite song?🤣 Here’s a handful of mine Gloria The unforgettable fire Bad Bullet the blue sky Red hill mining town One All I want is you You’re so cruel Silver and gold One tree hill So many I can’t think🤦♂️
My favorite? No. Where The Streets Have No Name is close. There is another I can never remember the name of because I don't really hear it often. There's one with B.B. King that is really good also, again forgetting the name
Ya know, U2 gets a lot of flack from the rock community and rock fans, but their music is great, timeless, inspiring and very epic at times. They set the standard for alternative new wave rock. Very creative and original good music.
Interestingly enough, restraint is often a word used by critics over the years to praise the song. It's a song about the tension in the singer's marriage at the time. One the one hand, they were young and in love, married and had been together since high school. They soon welcomed their first child too. Yet suddenly with this album, u2 became the biggest band in the world. After years of hard work, there was a lot of touring to do, press interviews, etc. All this put a lot of strain on the relationship. Bono saw it as hard-earned success that would benefit his family and friends. His wife had a hard time with the intense touring schedule and millions of women screaming for her husband. So the song builds on this. There is that slow yet steady build-up of tension and conflict that's still tempered with love and desire. They could have easily burst into a big guitar solo that was so common in 80s songs but I always thought it brilliant that they didn't. U2's best songs often don't give you a clear-cut resolution. Life isn't always like that (check out One for an example of this... Sometimes you just have to agree to disagree and carry on). Instead, they just let the heat build up throughout the song and then let it smolder like a banked fire. It was a remarkable choice by the band and I always felt it worked well. Anyway, just my 2 cents; thanks for the review!
The restraint is INTENTIONAL. It’s what makes the song so unique & genius. Mysterious. It constantly rides the edge-that edge of tension between exploding into some big power ballad or going all quiet, dark & moody. That mirrors the song’s lyrics & meaning. The singer is caught in a torturous state of “in-between.” Can’t live with her; can’t live without her. Nothing is resolved. And the best part of the song is that this enduring tension keeps it interesting, listen after listen, year after year. I think if the band had decided to go the conventional route & take the song in one clear direction or the other, it may have been a big hit for a few months-but then disappeared as most songs do. U2 stuck to their vision & now this is a classic loved & listened to by music fans generation after generation. Try some of their other songs as well. U2 are legends.
“Nostalgia” comment spot on. U2 are naturally “minimalist” and this song is a perfect example. The ending of this song could have gone somewhere far you wanted it to go but instead... it gave you a craving and left you for wanting more. No flashiness..The whole “less is more” approach. “Mystery Is Everything”
Well, maybe One Tree Hill and/or the Slane Castle rendition of All I Want Is You/Streets With No Name. Or Running To Stand Still. I dunno. Love them all!
this song leaves you with so much hope, so much passion, so much emotion.. this was for his wife.. Bono has such unique vocal range and even his close friends, bandmates are one of a kind. 20 years old and i was listening to music like this at such an early age. . i can repeat and play on repeat and i never get tired of U2.. I'm half irish myself and we have alot of fire within our hearts..that burning desire.. and many can agree. legendary at its finest.. as a artist myself i have my own version of this song.. he has that falsetto type of voice..so much raw, pure energy for his true love.. anyway all love never any hate..
ONLY band\artist to have a number one album in FOUR different decades. Each having it’d on distinct sound. Plus check out their Super Bowl halftime show. It was only like 4 months after 9/11 and is widely considered the best halftime performance ever. They also performed in New Orleans for the reopening of the Super Dome after hurricane Katrina. They were joined by Green Day for the song The Saints are Coming. It is pretty effin great. Try to do live versions when possible as they really put on a a great show. Exit, End of the World, Please, Kite, One Tree Hill and Discotheque will give you a taste of their diversity.
Definitely react to *live versions.* U2 are, at heart, a live band. They are all about creating an experience and a connection with the audience. They pioneered things like the B stage and the ramp for stage production of music act tours-which now seem omnipresent for big recording artists but U2 basically invented & popularized it. There’s NOTHING like U2 live. Legends.
That's just a classic which was released in 1987 but it sounds like something a little bit from 2000's. Bono is them lead singer/"rhythm-guitarist", them "lead-guitarist"/keyboardist/background vocalist is The Edge, them bassist is Adam Clayton, and them drummer is Larry Mullen. I love the song's outro with just two guitars, drums and bass guitar
The high pitched sound is some 'infinite guitar' invention that they borrowed when they heard the guy playing it at the studios they were using. Beautiful song. Another classic is 'Pride (In The Name Of Love)'
That's called an E-Bow. They used it also for almost every performance of "The Unforgettable Fire" when The Edge is playing two guitar solos: first - little melodic thing, and also the main one which originally was done by the orchestra
@@depechemoderemas Apparently it WAS 'Infinite Guitar' (similar effect to E-Bow) invented by Michael Brook. He made units for The Edge and Daniel Lanois... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_Guitar
@@depechemoderemas The Edge played it with an E-Bow once in Sydney, Australia in 1993 on a Les Paul Custom. It sounded horrific. The E-Bow was slow to bow the string and the Les Paul Custom had too much output that broke up too much.
They were huge, from the early'80s throughout the 90s, they were very political to start, try anything off of War or Under a Blood Red Sky, and then Joshua Tree. Great albums to start with.
This song reminds me of the first time I was in love, I was young and sixteen and never thought I would get over her. Of course I did, but old to be 16, and be lost in love. You can never have those moments back, but I listen to this song and remember
it's not Metallica... With that being said, with that being said it delivers on a whole different level, you have to go into listening to music like this, with a whole different expectation and receive what it is delivering🙏✌️
You changed places. Don't confuse an old man. LOL Greets from Germany. I was in my last year in school when this came out. My girlfriend and I listened to the album "Joshua Tree" all day long......... ;-) ....... What sweet memories. Great album by the way. One of the best late 80's albums in my opinion.
theres just so much drama in this song. its wrapped in it like velvet. the ending is a heartbreaker, again and again. much respect but this is a song you might need to listen to again, maybe while yr driving at dusk or something.
That's how wonderful Bono is.. he finds fault in himself instead of the person in front. Can't live with or without you, even when you give yourself away..
If you've watched 'Friends' it was the song that played on the jukebox when Ross stepped out on Rachel with the barmaid... ("but... we were on a break!") Lol. I love the whole "Joshua Tree" album. Thanks for the reaction.
Thanks Sisters who rock, Check out "One" U2 with Mary J Blige really mesmerizing also Walk on and In a little while but really so many U2 songs are great
IMHO, the greatest live performance of U2's classic "With Or Without You" was at the Oakland Alameda County Coliseum on November 14th, 1987 from Day On the Green there at the Coliseum. The concert in it's entirety is available on CZcams audio only. Live version is also longer with more verses thrown in with more exciting climax.
Yeah. I've stoped and thought about what the lyrics meant at: I can't live with or without you. To me, it's just the fact that he doesn't want to be at a stage of doubts. He wants her in his life or She wants him in her life, no doubts allowed.
If you've never been there, God bless you. But this song is about when you deeply love someone but they make it so damn hard. You can't be around them but you can't stand to be away from them. Nothing to win, and nothing left to lose. This song tore my heart out the first time I heard it.
It’s so weird to hear the new generation not heard of U2, back in my days, this band was the best of the best. This song hit #1 on the chart back in 1987 and one of the highest selling album of all time.
Please react to Diana Ankudinova - Rechenka. She is a 14yo girl that I guarantee you will be amazed by. She will put a spell on you and you will never forget!
The Joshua Tree was written lyrically by Bono specifically for & about America. Bono was so adept & brilliant lyrically, that he he could write songs with a surface meaning & a deeper more macro meaning as well. While this song is written in a person to person context, it is also a song written by the world to America. Bono is a outright genius & Poet Laureate for a generation.
It just won a Grammy on the Joshua Tree. If you ever watched friends. it's the song Ross had asked the radio station to play for Rachel. It was the time they were on a break and Rachel called the station and they stopped the song.
If you two watch Friends it will sound familiar. The episode when Ross and Rachel break up for the first time Ross dedicates this song to Rachel. Amy Lee from Evanescence covered this song as well as Led Zeplin Going To California, you should check those out. Good video. Can you check out some Five Finger Death Punch? I would suggest Wash It All Away, Wrong Side Of Heaven, and Gone Away to start.
Awesome reaction. I loved how you guys just got into the music and jammed to it. But I think the song is about a relationship where it hurts to be with that person, but you can't be without them.
My favorite U2 song. It gives me that nostalgic feel too..for some reason it reminds me of the movie labyrinth or the song that Bill & Ted made in the original movie 😊! You're fast becoming metal fans, lol I was gonna suggest Jeff Buckley- Grace (live) but not sure if you'd like it now?🤔
i`m in band,,,,,i play bass,,,,,,this song my band played,,,,,,U2 like Duran Duran,,,,,this song has great bass,,,,like the song from Duran Duran "Planet Earth"....check it out! react to it i dare you lol,,,,,both U2 & Duran Duran are from UK....Jamie says peace out sistasssss lol
Wow. Waste of my time. "Expecting more"?? That's one of the best songs of all time! The climax is everything! And you never heard this song before? Shame on you! Lol "two ignorant girls react to good music!"
Is this your favorite U2 song??
Also, make sure to check out the DESCRIPTION BOX !! 😊
Yes, amongst many others... Where the streets have no name (official music video) would be a great follow up song... Shows the power of U2 in people.. It's rock n roll, poetry and social commentary in one song.. Dope reaction
I love all of them songs, "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" is also PRETTY AMAZING (it's on the same album as "With Or Without You").
Asking U2 fans for their favorite song?🤣
Here’s a handful of mine
Gloria
The unforgettable fire
Bad
Bullet the blue sky
Red hill mining town
One
All I want is you
You’re so cruel
Silver and gold
One tree hill
So many I can’t think🤦♂️
My favorite? No. Where The Streets Have No Name is close. There is another I can never remember the name of because I don't really hear it often. There's one with B.B. King that is really good also, again forgetting the name
@@acemodez3169 “When love comes to town” is what you’re thinking of. I love that one too
The Joshua Tree Album is a masterpiece ....
Defently one of the greatest album in history:)
I 3rd that
Absolutely
Superb song Superb group
The whole album is a critique of the United States of America.
“Why does this sound familiar?”
Cos it’s like one of the biggest songs ever!
You heard it in the womb! 😂
this is the exact comment I wanted to see
And is in a fuck ton of movies
Ya know, U2 gets a lot of flack from the rock community and rock fans, but their music is great, timeless, inspiring and very epic at times. They set the standard for alternative new wave rock. Very creative and original good music.

you a craving and left you for wanting more. No flashiness..The whole “less is more” approach.
“Mystery Is Everything”
Spot on
U2 has outlasted alot of other bands, kudos to them for being original
Out lived every band.
All other songs in the universe revolve around this one. This is *the* song. Nothing comes close.
Well, maybe One Tree Hill and/or the Slane Castle rendition of All I Want Is You/Streets With No Name. Or Running To Stand Still. I dunno. Love them all!

U2 - Bullet the blue sky
This song is a masterpiece, so much emotion...
5:45 Here's that moment of power you were looking for.
The dude bleeds his heart out in beautiful climactic anguish and moaning there, yet not good enough for these chics.. clueless
The high pitch sound, is a E-bow, that you use with Guitars, its a magnetic piece you hold over the chords , and it get you this sound
Hold over the strings to make them vibrate for long periods of time instead of using a pick
That's right, in this case its a sustainer pickup
ONLY band\artist to have a number one album in FOUR different decades. Each having it’d on distinct sound. Plus check out their Super Bowl halftime show.

The band with 22 Grammy...fenomenal for a rock band..my favourite band
I like both of your honest reactions. No spin or anything. Straight from the heart ❤

it's not Metallica...
With that being said, with that being said it delivers on a whole different level, you have to go into listening to music like this, with a whole different expectation and receive what it is delivering🙏✌️
final U2 !! a lot of work to do Gals ;) there are a dozend Master pieces out there from U2
Woohoo it's my request!! This song def hits different when your 💔
This album debuted on my 15th birthday. YEAH I'M OLD.
The sister on the left is so pretty. This song brings back memories of 1987.
do "The Fly" from their 1991 album Achtung Baby next.
You changed places. Don't confuse an old man. LOL Greets from Germany. I was in my last year in school when this came out. My girlfriend and I listened to the album "Joshua Tree" all day long......... ;-) ....... What sweet memories. Great album by the way. One of the best late 80's albums in my opinion.
AMY LEE (AMAZING) HIGH NOTES -> EVANESCENCE - THE END OF THE DREAM (SYNTHESIS DVD LIVE). Beautiful, powerful, emotional! Amazing!
The title means that he can't live with the doubt to know if the person that he loves , loves him in return.
This song delivers anguish.
Sunday bloody sunday
Where the streets have no name
The one from batman forever
* You mean probably: The last song is "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me"
@@depechemoderemas yeah didnt feel like looking it up at the time, been a while since I herd or seen the movie or song
Man, has it been 2 years? Miss You guys.
Friends is why you know it ;)
Hear it live and you will be surprised
I only watch to see you 2 beautiful women you make my day love you 2 !!!
theres just so much drama in this song. its wrapped in it like velvet. the ending is a heartbreaker, again and again. much respect but this is a song you might need to listen to again, maybe while yr driving at dusk or something.

This was my break up song. Said goodbye to my fiance in 1994. I listened to this song probably 200 times. At least.
Switching seating arrangement causes me to rethink life itself.
Pausing it a second before the guitar comes in...like a stab to the gut...
😂😂😂 You Probably Heard it in the Sitcom Friends

I like the song Bad.
The Coors and Bono "Summer Wine" Please.
U again i love u too sisters 🇸🇪🇸🇪❤️
Bono amazing on the guitar on this one! Lol
i remember seeing them in Montreal at the Hyppodrome and my friends were all on their balconies and could hear it (2km around)
It feels familiar because worldwide, with Queen, U2 was the biggest band in the world pretty much. Icons really. Good stuff you 2.
next Song "One '" from U2 thats blow your mind
Especially if it's the version from the Grammys with Mary J Blige singing also.
If you two watch Friends it will sound familiar. The episode when Ross and Rachel break up for the first time Ross dedicates this song to Rachel. Amy Lee from Evanescence covered this song as well as Led Zeplin Going To California, you should check those out. Good video. Can you check out some Five Finger Death Punch?

Great band
It’s one of my favorite songs of all time.
Here’s where it delivers… 5:45.
Ross and Rachels' theme F R I E N D S
The best part of this song is the outro....so simple yet brilliant
Guys please react to Steven Wilson's "Routine"
check out their song Vertigo, very rocking and some words in spanish
That 80's music is timeless compared to nowadays music. No one is going to remember The Weeknd or Rihanna or Ariana Grande etc. in 20 years
Tune!
Awesome reaction. I loved how you guys just got into the music and jammed to it. But I think the song is about a relationship where it hurts to be with that person, but you can't be without them.
U2 STAY OFFICIAL VIDEO
You need to turn down the volume on the music, it's too loud and making a crushing effect.
Exactly
I saw when it made you smile
+100 For realizing it was not a love song on the first listen. :)
I’ve always said the protagonist in this song is basically screwed . Great reaction
HERMOSA CANCIÓN CHICAS SALUDOS
“I think they were pretty big” 🤣
maybe dont put so much bass on you out but the signals are a little bit distorted here in my HP
I didn't notice till the end
Sunday Bloody Sunday
I'm not a U2 fan but I like this song
Your ratings are way too low. I think it gets better the more you listen to it.
MY FAV SONG - ONE OF A MILLION
Check out I Fall Down by U2
The girl didn’t get it . The art of this song is controlled restraint, wanting more and more and then a chilling out outro
You have to react to U2 Until the End of the World its more of a heavier rock song and it has an epic guitar solo
My favorite U2 song. It gives me that nostalgic feel too..for some reason it reminds me of the movie labyrinth or the song that Bill & Ted made in the original movie 😊!
You're fast becoming metal fans, lol I was gonna suggest Jeff Buckley- Grace (live) but not sure if you'd like it now?🤔
This song is in friends.
DO U2 STAY, ONE AND KITE
Great reaction. Please react to Richard Marx - Hazard?
Why it sounds formiliar? Because it's the best band in the world, with one of the biggest hits of the 80's
Need to react to the October/bullet the blue sky
i`m in band,,,,,i play bass,,,,,,this song my band played,,,,,,U2 like Duran Duran,,,,,this song has great bass,,,,like the song from Duran Duran "Planet Earth"....check it out! react to it i dare you lol,,,,,both U2 & Duran Duran are from UK....Jamie says peace out sistasssss lol
Please do the Tina S (through the fire and flames) reaction
Thanx
Wow. Waste of my time. "Expecting more"?? That's one of the best songs of all time! The climax is everything!
And you never heard this song before? Shame on you! Lol
"two ignorant girls react to good music!"
You should react to el duelo by el ley
