    U2 will go down in history as the greatest rock band of all time. Unbelievable they still tour and have all original band members. Check out anything live from them. Even the live performances from any award show is awesome.

      I believe they are one of the few remaining bands from the 80s that still tour with the original lineup. I've been lucky enough to see them in 2017 for there Joshua Tree 30th anniversary tour

    Superb... my eys lit up when i saw this takes me back to me teens. I was 14 in 1984 and a GIGANTIC U2 fan... saw them perform this live and it comes from one of my all time favourite albums U2 Albuns The Unforgettable Fire. By far Irelands biggest ever musical export and all grew up amidst the worst troubles Ireland has seen. They have long promoted an end to the troubles often reflected in their lyrics. Bono the lead singer invested heavily in Apple many years ago so i would imagine that would be the reason you had them on you Iphone without you putting it there lol. Legend status is reserved for very view groups and these guys comes under the category. You should react to their performance from the same stadium 1 year later. Live Aid 1985 Wembly Stadium or Where The Streets Have No Name.. video is all on the streets of America aswel as concert footage from their tour there 💜

  • @wendyweekendgourmet
    @wendyweekendgourmet Před 3 lety +6

    One of the greatest bands - especially live - in rock history. They’re in the Rock Hall of Fame...and they still sell out stadium shows with 60K+ fans. If you want to hear more U2, they have a 24/7/365 channel on Sirius XM.

  • @bminturn
    @bminturn Před 3 lety +15

    Great pick! This is such an underrated song. "Faces plowed like fields that once gave no resistance" - this isn't the stuff that most rock or pop artists were writing in 1984. Some other good songs to check out would be "Pride (In the Name of Love)" - either the official video or the live performance from Rattle and Hum. "One" live from Slane Castle is just amazing. The album versions is also very good. "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" (official video) has a very chill, gospel kind of vibe. "Angel of Harlem" live version from Sidney (Zoo TV tour) is FANTASTIC. "Electric Co" live from Red Rocks is jammed with youthful intensity, with a little bit more of a punk sound to it. Same with "Seconds" and "Surrender" from the same show. They have a very broad catalogue, so it's hard to zero in on just one.

  • @O_Towne_Bear

    Been a U2 fan from their first album and when this came out ("The Unforgettable Fire" album) we thought this was going to be their pinnacle, the highest of highs. Then "Joshua Tree" happened and well, the rest as they say. Caught this tour here in Ottawa and the "ZOOTV Tour" in Toronto.

  • @wreckingKREW1
    @wreckingKREW1 Před 3 lety +4

    My favorite song from my favorite album (or maybe War,I dunno,it's close) by them. Sat out all night in 25 degree weather in December '84 to get tickets to see them play DAR Constitution Hall in DC on a little holiday mini-tour of the US to promote The Unforgettable Fire album,which this song is the first track on.
    Was well worth it as when they came back to the US in the spring of '85 they had graduated to hockey and basketball arenas and the intimacy of their first tours was gone. Still great shows,one of the very few bands that could pull off a stadium concert,but still something was lost after they became as huge as they would become.

  • @depechemoderemas
    @depechemoderemas Před 3 lety +4

    Little fact: That's an opening track of them 1984's release THE UNFORGETTABLE FIRE
    Oh, and they've used the similar bassline from this track to them another track (which was released in 2004) called "Vertigo"

    • @krypto_9872
      @krypto_9872 Před 3 lety

    • @meganclick6002

      U2 are pretty influenced by soul music, so I'm not too surprised that you might like them. The gospel version of Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For might be up your alley. They are my favorite band, so I'm biased, but I think they are the best live music rock band out there.
