I'm 15 now. You can give me crap and say that, "No one cares you're 15," and a lot of other stuff. But this will be the music that I'll listen to for the rest of my life. My dad passed this type of music down to me, and I hope I get to do the same for my kids one day.
Yes, this was underrated. They have never played it live. It was intended for The Joshua Tree but left off in favor of the more upbeat Trip Through Your Wires.
It's amazing to me that a song this awesome never made it onto the radio. Definitely one of their very best & it gives me goosebumps everytime I hear it.
I introduced my brother,to U2 many years ago,he passed right before atyclb,but this was his favorite song by them,I went along time before I listened to it,was hard not to feel the loss,but now I can listen with cherished memories, tomorrow isn't promised to any of us,if you love them ,tell them so!
I've literally had this song on repeat on Windows Media Player for the past eight hours, and I am STILL not tired of it. It is an excellent song, and probably the most underrated song and most unheard song by U2. What a beautiful piece of work!
Hundreds-- and thousands-- of years from now, the bands that will be most remembered from our time are The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, and U2.
I was very young when my dad introduced me to U2. People's music tastes may change as they get older but U2 will always be one of the bands I will always love, even after they split. I hope I can get my future children to love them as much as I have for the past 12 years or so too.
This song was playing as I drove over the bridge to get to the Outer Banks. Sun was rising as I had been driving all night, meeting a beautiful oliive skinned woman. Perfect week. Perfect song
We are so grateful for your life BONO and your IRELAND- nothing in this world will ever change the meaning of how much we love you and your life- its so IRISH ☘️ the way we need it and you, Happy BIRthday as always and success to you... May God bless Ireland to you as we always do green white and gold -
4 ever the best band on world..bono simply a poet...a legend...never exist a band like thet..u2 lives 4 ever on world..time pass but simply the best..love from portugal..paul
Agreed, this has been one of my favourite R&H song. Everytime i listen to it i've got tears in my eyes and feel completely melancholic - no other song manages this after such a long time.
Glorious. I´m a progrock lover, which is another level of music, but still Love U2. And this song is incredible, mixing sensations of missing past and the hopeful future...and much more than this. Amazing.
Full credit to you for putting on some great photos. Oh man, thank you. This is one of my favourite U2 songs, and those photos blended beautifully. Again thanks heaps. If I could, I'd shout you a full glass of Guiness Stout! And a juicy hamburger to boot. How's that? Huh? On ya' buddy.
One of my all time favorite songs. It is so perfectly made and under rated songs off the Rattle and Hum albums. This song sticks in my head for days and I get goose bumps everytime I listen to it.
I remember this song so much, I made a mix tape with this on for my girlfriend, ( now my wife of 20 yrs ), and played it over and over. Eighties U2 when they were at their absolute best b4 everyone decided they all had to save the planet an sell out!!
I've been playing a lot of Red Dead Redemption 2 lately. There's a region there called The Heartlands, and every time I see that written down, I hear this song's chorus in my head. It's quite fitting because it's one of the regions you visit a lot in the early game, when things are a lot happier than they end up. It's got a nice vibe of reminiscing about it, which is really appropriate right now. Great great song.
@whelanttt they are like the best wine in the world best at the beginning but growing even beyond comparason with the years thank god if there ever was one for giving us these angel like inspired artists. everytime you think theyre tired of it they come back and blow me away again. i feel proud and blessed i saw them twice already in concert . they are sooooo much even better live than on record. proof of theyre true geniality the more you study them the better they get what messages...
Great song, thanks for posting it! I live about 2 hours away from that Joshua tree. rumor is that it is gone, hope not.When I have time I'll have to go looking for it!
U2 in their prime, jesus, they were second to none. Incredible vocal, stunning guitar, always were the ones to beat. Maybe they should have stopped a few years ago to keep the purity of what they achieved but who knows.....
See the sunrise over her skin Don't change it. See the sunrise over her skin Dawn changes everything, everything. And the delta sun Burns bright and violent. Mississippi and the cotton wool heat Sixty-six - a highway speaks Of deserts dry Of cool green valleys Gold and silver veins All the shining cities In this heartland In this heartland In this heartland. Heaven knows This is a heartland. Heartland, our heartland. See the sunrise over her skin She feels like water in my hand Freeway, like a river Cuts through this land Into the side of love Like a burning spear And the poison rain Brings a flood of fear Through the ghostranch hills Death Valley waters In the towers of steel Belief goes on and on In this heartland In this heartland In this heartland Heaven knows This is a heartland.
Beautiful song brings back memories where does time go ,first seen u2 in eighty four at the Sydney entertainment centre next was vertigo then 360 and its now 2018 fucking scary !
Ok guys, if you think this song has to do with Ireland, then you're not understanding the lyrics. T his is clearly a song about America. If you live in America and listen to the lyrics, you'll see why immediately. The references to highway 66, dry deserts, Mississippi,Death Valley (California), and even the title itself (Heartland) are things that clearly describe the US. Last time I checked, there was no Mississippi, Death Valley, dry deserts, or HW 66 in Ireland.
Here the lyrics: See the sun rise over her skin Don't change it See the sun rise over her skin Dawn changes everything Everything And the delta sun Burns bright and violet Mississippi and the cotton wool heat Sixty-six, a highway speaks Of deserts dry Of cool green valleys Gold and silver veins Of the shining cities In this heartland In this heartland soil In this heartland Heaven knows this is a heartland Heartland, heartland See the sun rise over her skin She feels like water in my hand Freeway like a river cuts through this land Into the side of love Like a burning spear And the poison rain Brings a flood of fear Through the ghost-ranch hills Death valley waters In the towers of steel Belief goes on and on In this heartland In this heartland soil In this heartland Heaven knows this is a heartland Heartland, heaven knows this is a heartland Heartland, heartland Heartland, heaven's day here in the heartland Heart
I'm 15 now. You can give me crap and say that, "No one cares you're 15," and a lot of other stuff. But this will be the music that I'll listen to for the rest of my life. My dad passed this type of music down to me, and I hope I get to do the same for my kids one day.
By far the most underrated of U2's songs. Amazing.
You dont know anything.
Underrated? Haha no. It was very popular. But if we talk about later 20 years many half-fans probably haven't listened to it yet
Most underrated? I dunno man, there's just about the whole B side of the Joshua Tree.
Yes, this was underrated. They have never played it live. It was intended for The Joshua Tree but left off in favor of the more upbeat Trip Through Your Wires.
+James Ervin This is more underrated than One Tree Hill or In God's Country from the B side of TJT.
It's amazing to me that a song this awesome never made it onto the radio. Definitely one of their very best & it gives me goosebumps everytime I hear it.
Or on the album
'Heartland', '3 Sunrises', and 'A Sort of Homecoming' are my fave U2 songs.
Heartland, red hill minning town, a sort of homecoming, lemon and ultra violet are my top five.
Jorge Pablo Albert López Mine are probably : Ultraviolet, One, Where the streets have no name, Who's gonna ride your wild horses
***** Same my favourite songs are always changing!! So many good songs its hard to pick favourites to be honest!
Bullet the Blue Sky, Desire; and of course With or Without You.
Stay Lemon Twilight Promenade New Years Day Heartland 11 o’clock tick tock Red Hill Mining Town Bad Two Hearts Beat As One.
U2 is the vessel of the Joshua Tree - an epic and timeless album. The songs in this album are forever truly amazing works of art. and poetry.
U2 has no failed album. each album has at least 5 really good songs. I can name them all. U2 fan since 1993.
Lazaro Diaz same here fan since the first album
I loved all there album's ,
I introduced my brother,to U2 many years ago,he passed right before atyclb,but this was his favorite song by them,I went along time before I listened to it,was hard not to feel the loss,but now I can listen with cherished memories, tomorrow isn't promised to any of us,if you love them ,tell them so!

What a beautiful piece of work!
How I listened to this song over and over when I was a teen (and the rest of the album)... brings back good memories. So good to hear it again!
i was all over this back in 1992
bonos voice is fucking amazing in this song
My favorite song of U2.
Hundreds-- and thousands-- of years from now, the bands that will be most remembered from our time are The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, and U2.
I was very young when my dad introduced me to U2. People's music tastes may change as they get older but U2 will always be one of the bands I will always love, even after they split. I hope I can get my future children to love them as much as I have for the past 12 years or so too.
Je ne pense pas jamais avoir entendu une telle voix Bono est fantastique......énorme......j'ai 48 ans....
u2 simply the best band ever,,my real love u2...love from Portugal
This song was playing as I drove over the bridge to get to the Outer Banks. Sun was rising as I had been driving all night, meeting a beautiful oliive skinned woman. Perfect week. Perfect song
IMO...There are few songs that have such a beautiful atmosphere that it can humble your soul.
Brian Bob Young so true
Couldn't agree more. A perfect blend of lyric, tempo, arrangement - an evocative soundscape indeed...
This is the soul of u2,brilliant and beautiful and free...love it.Thank you for this.
it is amazing what these men felt when they came here. write sooo much good music about our country.....in this heartland
Amazing
I love this song so much but always brings me back to a sad time of my life
Wunderschöner Song. Super Band U2.
I want to seat alone by the Mississippi River and listen to this tune ❤️😭
It's alarming how many underrated songs U2 wrote. Are there not more people with good taste?
One of about 10 really underrated songs never talked about like an caht dubh/into the heart , 11 o'clock tick tock
Darryl Kee mate don’t worry those two songs are in my top FIVE of U2. Incredible songs.
And Another time/Another place, Tomorrow, Drowning Man,, Walk to the water... And Gone :)
EPIC! Majestic, U2 prime time. It´s the backtrack of my youth and my dreams... and I feel that age everytime I listen to this.
We are so grateful for your life BONO and your IRELAND- nothing in this world will ever change the meaning of how much we love you and your life- its so IRISH ☘️ the way we need it and you, Happy BIRthday as always and success to you... May God bless Ireland to you as we always do green white and gold -
Rattle And Hum uno de los álbumnes mas completos en la trayectoria de U2 .

Simply 1 of the best u2 tracks. Havent heard it since croke park 1985. BRILLINT
Agreed, this has been one of my favourite R&H song. Everytime i listen to it i've got tears in my eyes and feel completely melancholic - no other song manages this after such a long time.
Glorious.
I´m a progrock lover, which is another level of music, but still Love U2.

this song is amazing..it takes your breath...
Haven't heard this song in years....man, you just want to roll one up and look at the setting sun while sitting on the summit of a mountain.
TREMENDO tema como canta el GRAN MAESTRO BONO, y The Edge soberbio con los coros cada vez que escucho esta canción me emociono.
I remember this song so much, I made a mix tape with this on for my girlfriend, ( now my wife of 20 yrs ), and played it over and over. Eighties U2 when they were at their absolute best b4 everyone decided they all had to save the planet an sell out!!

Las imagenes son hermosas...me llevan otra vez a los 15. La nostalgia invade mi mente.
Excellent, I´m happy to see the new generation getting into that too. U2 is amazing.
Magnifique morceau qui vous transporte ailleurs , photographies superbes je vous aime U2 ♥️

Singing about the good things in America, probably why it never got air play, thanks for writing U2
U2 in their prime, jesus, they were second to none. Incredible vocal, stunning guitar, always were the ones to beat. Maybe they should have stopped a few years ago to keep the purity of what they achieved but who knows.....

Great tune!
See the sunrise over her skin
Don't change it.
See the sunrise over her skin
Dawn changes everything, everything.
And the delta sun
Burns bright and violent.
Mississippi and the cotton wool heat
Sixty-six - a highway speaks
Of deserts dry
Of cool green valleys
Gold and silver veins
All the shining cities
In this heartland
In this heartland
In this heartland.
Heaven knows
This is a heartland.
Heartland, our heartland.
See the sunrise over her skin
She feels like water in my hand
Freeway, like a river
Cuts through this land
Into the side of love
Like a burning spear
And the poison rain
Brings a flood of fear
Through the ghostranch hills
Death Valley waters
In the towers of steel
Belief goes on and on
In this heartland
In this heartland
In this heartland
Heaven knows
This is a heartland.
Beautiful song brings back memories where does time go ,first seen u2 in eighty four at the Sydney entertainment centre next was vertigo then 360 and its now 2018 fucking scary !
great song
una cancion hecha con todo el sentimiento
Never played live !
aA great Song!
Amo questa canzone!Amo gli u2!
superbe titre et lieu de recueillement !
I've heard that this song was originally written for The Joshua Tree album! It might've also been recorded during those sessions as well.
It was written about the time of The Unforgettable Fire actually..
Perfect song
I've never been to the USA , but heartland took me there.
Never been to the USA but I've been in some states
ANOTHER DREAM FULFILLED: JUST SAW 'EM. AT THE ROSEBEL!!!! LIVED MEGA EDGEEeee##!!
My late brothers fav u2 song
