“When I look at the world”, I see turmoil, turmoil, turmoil !!! Then listen to U2 music for a couple of hours and I’m ready to take ON the world !!! TopJimmy
Uma letra poderosíssima... E quando Bono grita que não consegue mais esperar até ganhar força para ver o mundo com outros olhos é de arrepiar... Dá pra sentir o desespero.
In my heart I feel like this resembles the many conversations I have with our creator, God. I do wonder what it's all for. Why we are the way we are, and why I can't see who we are, the way God does. Fantastic lyrics 🫂
I agree completely and the lyrics back you up on that including: So I try to be like you Try to feel it like you do But without you it's no use I can't see what you see When I look at the world. And these verses here are either referring to God the Creator and or to Jesus who was famous for never looking away or turning away from the lame: When there's all kinds of chaos And everyone is walking lame You don't even blink now do you Or even look away
@@paulprestarri4725 I have no problem with you not liking it, but "says nothing"? How about it, e.g., being the song's subject's admission of weakness, and at the same time feeling of awe towards somebody who seems to have the strength to live fully according to their morals and heart?
Most people don't know this, but this song was written after Bono's visit with Pope John Paul II in 1999 after he traded a pair of his sunglasses for the pope's rosary. There's a funny picture of the Pope wearing Bono's sunglasses somewhere on the Internet. Just Google it. And, of course, Bono often wears that Rosary around his neck while he performs. Anyway, the last verse, "I'm in the waiting room, I can't see through the smoke," that's an obvious reference to purgatory. Bono struggles to see the world and feel it the way the JPII did.
V Interesting. The line is 'for' though, not through. I have read too that he was writing about his wife and how struggled the see the positive things in the world the way she did. Best wishes ....
@@donny2327 "For" or "through" means the same thing in this instance. But I swear when you actually listen to the album version, he is saying "through." Plus, "you don't even sleep now do you" is a reference to a person, not a divine being. Anyway, I can understand why people who aren't comfortable with religion wouldn't want this to be a song about the Pope. But I remember in the year 2000, U2 did an interview with a radio station in Toronto, 102.1 The Edge, and in the lead up to playing this song, they were discussing Bono's visit with the Pope the previous year.
@@donquixotedelamancha58 Interesting. Officially he says for, but I hear through too. Not quite the same though as for, here, means because of, and through means, well, through.
@@donny2327 Think old English. "I can't advance for there is a road block stopping me." Or "I can't see for the smoke [is stopping me from seeing]." The latter is the same as, "I can't see through the smoke."

And these verses here are either referring to God the Creator and or to Jesus who was famous for never looking away or turning away from the lame:
When there's all kinds of chaos
And everyone is walking lame
You don't even blink now do you
Or even look away
Also the reference to: “your holy book“
Nice,wonderfull finish
with the edge.
An amazing song.
We play it often with our tribute and u2two. It's such a great joy to play the guitarsolo
Looking for a good U2 tribute band to host. Where are you from?
One of their best songs, why it doesn't get air time is baffling
Agreed. Absolutely stellar.
Seemingly Edge has forgotten how to play it 🤔
One of their best 👌
Sick song
One of the worst songs ever written in the “rock” genre. Says nothing goes no where sounds horrid

U2 say it all. A love the band . Go Bless everyone 😊
a great U2 song that they never play!
I Do Agree With You!!!
I don't understand why they have never played this such a Great Music...
@@goyhlandstar they played it in Kansas City

Their last great album. They had a great run from 1980 to 2001.
HTDAAB was their last decent album.
@@2minutesmusikdecent in parts
How many bands have blended religion, love and social issues without falling into any one category?? Beautiful song!
I can’t wait any longer...still in 2020
Thanks a lot.
Merci beaucoup
:-)
Música maravilhosa
One of U2’s best songs but certainly not their best video clip. I’d never seen this before and now I know why.
It reminds me of that time when I was living in the new townhouse in 2009 when I was 3
Great job!!!!
Edição maravilhosa, parabéns amigo.
Bellísima canción 😍😍😍😍😍
Da hora esse som mesmo fui conhecer agora rs
Dedicated to my strength, My wife Sylwia J Murphy xxxxx♥️
U2 es la rajaaa!!!

Lyrics_ Letra
When you look at the world _Quando você olha para o mundo
What is it that you see?_ O que é que você vê?
People find all kinds of things_As pessoas encontram todo tipo de coisa
That bring them to their knees_que as colocam de joelhos
I see an expression_Eu vejo uma expressão
So clear and so true_tão limpa e tão verdadeira
That changes the atmosphere_Que muda a atmosfera
When you walk into the room_Quando você está presente
So I try to be like you_ Então eu tento ser como você
Try to feel it like you do_ Tento sentir o que você sente
But without you it's no use_Mas sem você não adianta
I can't see what you see_Eu não consigo ver o que você vê
When I look at the world_ Quando eu olho para o mundo
When the night is someone else"s_ Quando a noite é de outra pessoa
And you're trying to get some sleep_ E você está tentando dormir um pouco
When your thoughts are too expensive_ Quando seus pensamentos são caros demais
To ever wanna keep_ Para até mesmo querer segurá-los
When there's all kinds of chaos_ Quando existe todo tipo de caos
And everyone is walking lame_E todo mundo está indo mal
You don't even blink now, do you_ Você nem mesmo pisca agora, não é?
Or even look away_ Ou até mesmo desvia o olhar
So I try to be like you_ Então eu tento ser como você
Try to feel it like you do_ Tento sentir como você sente
But without you it's no use_ Mas sem você não adianta
I can't see what you see_Eu não consigo ver o que você vê
When I look at the world_ Quando eu olho para o mundo
I can't wait any longer_ Eu não consigo esperar mais
I can't wait till I'm stronger_ Eu não consigo esperar até eu ser mais forte
Can't wait any longer_ Não consigo esperar mais
To see what you see_ Para ver o que você vê
When I look at the world_ Quando eu olho para o mundo
I'm in the waiting room_ Eu estou na sala de espera
Can't see for the smoke_ não posso ver através da fumaça
I think of you and your holy book_ Eu penso em você e seu livro sagrado
While the rest of us choke_ Enquanto o resto de nós sufoca
Tell me, tell me, what do you see?_ Diga-me, diga-me, O que você vê?
Tell me, tell me, what's wrong with me_ me diz, me diz, O que há de errado comigo

Hey, I tried to see it. Maybe it's not for me to see.
This song is from 2000 not 2009!
So wish they would play this live.Seemingly Edge has forgot how to play it 🤔
Caro, Tiago, gostaria de sua autorização para colocar essa sua edição desta música em uma postagem na página do meu facebook.
desde já, obrigado
Mi gasa in auto!

And I also act as Drake's stunt double
Resurrección from argentina
why he did not change it live instead of always singing beautiful day?
wtf? 2009?
Rockman Rossi totally get the surprise bro!
The version of the video I made was in 2009
