I've read a lot of comments about where did this color version come from and how they've never seen it before. It was in the Unforgettable Fire Deluxe (some call it Super Deluxe) release in 2009 Bonus DVD. Some of us diehards that have had it and have attempted to upload it for years and have never managed to do so. I am so glad as a U2 diehard that it is finally available for ALL to see. And yes, I agree with many of you, this version is superior to the sepia official video!
0:30 I used to watch this video on TV when I was 15 y.o. Now here I am at the age of 53 watching the same video on UA-cam! Still have the same feeling hearing these guys!!! U2 forever!!!❤❤
This is classic U2! It will never be duplicated again. These songs can only be written and recorded when you are at a certain age and point in your life. They are no longer in their 20's...when the world was in their hands. The music they make now is where they are at this point and time...in their later years. I miss the music and energy they had in the early 90's...Achtung Baby was a masterpiece and Zooropa was probably their most experimental work ever. Youth! I was lucky to see them live twice during that time...thanks boys!
I am roughly the same age as Bono so I was in my twenties when they hit the states. I loved them as a young woman in my twenties and still do as an older me in my 60's. One of the best band's ever.
"It will never be duplicated again,. . . " In fact. That wave we ride in the 20's of our short lives is full of Optimism. We have to hold on to these Visions, I feel -- carry them in our hearts throughout our Time here. What you said here is so right on. . .
Afuckinmen Mr d. But it is totally unacceptable for them to play the sphere without their ring leader Larry Mullen Jr. Heal quickly lar from ur surgeries
@Park James Shaw I agree, them doing the Vegas shows without Larry is disappointing and a bit of a "who cares" attitude, not the U2 I've loved for so many years!
@@christophehenn5686 il existe beaucoup de bons groupes des années 60, 70, 80 et 90 (Deep purple, Pink Floyd, QUEEN, Bowie, The CURE, Placebo...) et bien évidemment les précurseurs : les Fab 4 les BEATLES !
I get teary eyed every time that I hear this song. RIP REVEREND DR MARTIN LUTHER KING JR "Early morning, April four Shot rings out in the Memphis sky Free at last, they look your life They could not take your pride" I'm from Sao Paulo/Brazil Thanks Bono & The Edge👏👏🤝
the u2 catalogue on youtube had been a little sketchy for years. pffft! not any more. the stuff we are seeing in recent months is bang on. well done boys 😀
This is a great sign that every single video is going to get remastered on you tube. First the sepia version, then slane castle version and now the colour version. I would think unforgettable fire next then a sort of homecoming (live) and bad (live) off wide awake in America. 😀
@@ellukitaa__6571 Yes, and also the non released Anton Corbjin version of Pride. And for "The Joshua Tree" I expect the videopclip of "Red Hill Mining Town," an outstanding song that was originally planned as a single, but they changed it till the end (the single instead was "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For"). We can find this clip in the U2 channel, but the resolution is poor and I hope they will update it in HD.
Red hill mining town is great and I’m sure that will be released. I doubt they will release the unreleased version of pride as the band themselves didn’t like it and to be honest it really was a terrible video that should not be released
@@paulwood6263 I agree with you, the Anton Corbjin version is not the best one at all, but it´s a priceless collection piece, and they kow it. For example, they felt disappointed because of the result of "Pop" album in 1997, but they will release the HD version of every single videoclip from the album. If they don´t upload the Anton Corbjin version of "Pride," no problem, but in my case I would like to watch it.
I think this video was shot with MOVIE camera on film and NOT with video camcorder with videotape! It is real great quality! I respect all artist, who shows remastered material in very good HD / FULL HD and 4K quality here on UA-cam! Thumbs up!
So far six U2's videos were remastered this way. On my channel I have a list of all old music videos I could find that were transferred from film in high definition.
By the way, we are an upcoming band who are very inspired by the music of U2 . If you are interested, head over there 👈 and let us know what you think of our songs. Especially now, it is very hard for new bands to let people hear their music. Your support would help us a lot!
9.9/10 -- I only wish this had been recut for the full 12" extended version, about a minute longer with a second take of Edge's solo and Chrissie Hynde on harmony on the final chorus.
30 years ago, I stood in a shop in County Galway and my brother teaching me to say the best band in the world is U2. 2021, I still say U2 are the greatest band around. Larry, Adam, Edge, Bono.. Thank you so much.
Pride is perhaps by far one of the most iconic U2 sounds of all time. Very powerful and very loud vocal. A perfect album with a spirit more focused on the elements of Mother Nature and a U2 sounding very loud and one of the most emblematic riffs of this Irish band.
So cool. I’m 20 and been a U2 fan my whole life ever since my Dad who’s the biggest fan on the planet brought me up listening to them. I love being around the same age as them now especially as I listen to their early albums. U2!
The fact that this was in 84 is so hard to believe. The sound they produced was something totally different from what anything sounded like. They were lightyears ahead of their time, like, im not joking, this shit sounds like it was made in the mid to late 90s maybe the 2000s, its weird. Amazing band.
Never understood why they've got such a downer on this video - Some great shots of Dublin, they all look young and handsome, the shots of the small, indifferent audience and the young lad imitating Bono's dancing shows that U2 have got a sense of humour (despite accusations otherwise), and it works well with the music.
Wow this cinematography is amazing! this is the only early U2 visuals clear enough i could find. after all this years i never thought that we will enjoying this one day. Thank you
All those little hidden details that we only discover by seeing in color , like the Waterfront ,, the children, the audience in the theater , the little houses color . I always thought Bono's boots were black not brown .
MAGNIFICENT MASTERPIECE FOLLOWING U2 41 YEARS THIS VIDEO TAKES ME BACK TO MY YOUTH HANGING AROUND DUBH LINN PORT AND WINDMILL LANE AND U2 DRINKING IN THE LOCAL PUBS AH HAPPY DAYS
Watching this now still gives me goosebumps. Absolutely brilliant song. Have been a massive U2 fan since around 1983 and seeing this video in colour is fantastic.
I forgot there was more than one version of the video. I remember now MTV promoted the hell out of the videos alternating between them almost hourly at one point.
This is the one I knew from winter 1985. The red-and-white towers. The kid trudging up the street. Me, music class guy, with my cheap guitar, telling myself "I KNOW what Edge is doing! I can see what notes he's playing! I get it!" And Larry's drums. So, I bought the 45 because they still existed then. And ... BOOMERANG II
Not quite. I was at Curtis Hixon Hall in about 1982 the first time I saw the lads. The hall is a park now, along Hillsborough River in Tampa, Florida. The thrill I felt then is just as fresh now.:)
Saranda Krasniqi, they have always been very fan friendly. It’s astonishing, really; I worked two of their shows, once as security, another time and a stagehand. They were so generous every time.:)
@@jasonbean591 Oh wow, really? No way! 🤩 Well now I'm really jealous! I believe you when you tell me that they're very nice guys. I met The Edge in Helsinki back in 2010 outside the hotel they were staying at. He was actually the only one who took the time to greet the fans. I had prepared a pen and paper and asked for his autograph, but he said that he wasn't signing anything that day. Then he touched my arms, looked at me and added "But you know what? I'll gladly shake your hand" and I was just 😲🥴🤪🤯😍 I couldn't believe he talked to me, looked at me and touched me. I remember thinking, this is what it must be like for catholics when they meet the pope. 😅 I have the picture of him from that day.
won't ever forget Bono screaming "we're not an English Band, we're an Irish Band". So many years later his vocal power still astounds!
Yes the man of Irish the great Irish mother child,hats off 🙏
Irish altho The Edge was born in England!
@Lee Weild
Born in Essex of Welsh parents but his family moved to Dublin when he was a year old so was raised in Ireland.
Chaz Mann, lead singer looks like a young Robin Williams.
epic moment 🫶
The color version is STUNNING. Seeing it after all these years...it's like when Dorothy lands in Oz. :D
Haha great comparison 😂😂
You're exactly right 🌈
Absolutely
Where is Dot nowadays?

@2:52 “the Memphis skYYY” the way bono sings that gave me chills when I was 5 and still almost 40 years later🥲
Dublin is beautiful 🤩
My mom used to tell me about this day. She said the whole nation cried & it was the worse day she could remember 🙏~
Thank you ⚘
Great! This one of the most favourite songs of mine. U2 are legends. The Edge's riffs are so soothing.
U2 is nothing without The Edge. His guitar playing is absolutely phenomenal.
He’s the best ever
Hell Yeah!!!!!
Still a fan after 40 years.
Beautiful
Timeless song 🎵 Bono is a force of nature here , what an intensity
Outstanding song. The best part of this video is the start with the Edge walking 🚶♀️ towards the east link bridge. So so cool 😎
Those were the best days ever!!!❤
I get teary eyed every time that I hear this song.

not me. i can wait until c19 is done and then they may release it and tour it soon after that. if it is released now it can't be toured
Ofc you took a nice comment and then advertised on it :)
MEEEE YAY-YUH😄😄😄
People always look handsome/pretty in black and white. But Bono and the chaps still good-looking in colour.
I get chills listening and now in color HD...so happy!!!
U2 Thank you for Existing !
Perfect
U2 Masterpiece 2021!
Best band in the world 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
9.9/10 -- I only wish this had been recut for the full 12" extended version, about a minute longer with a second take of Edge's solo and Chrissie Hynde on harmony on the final chorus.
As much as I like the extended version, I always felt like Bono’s extra chorus sounded a bit rough compared to the rest of the vocal track.
My favourite band 👊🏻
When this came out I was 7 years old now as a 43 year old man still my favourite band
Absolute legends 🙌🏻
The best of all time 👌🏻
30 years ago, I stood in a shop in County Galway and my brother teaching me to say the best band in the world is U2. 2021, I still say U2 are the greatest band around. Larry, Adam, Edge, Bono.. Thank you so much.
Looking so much better in colour and HD, well deserved for such iconic anthem.
Essa música de rock é muito legal 😎 muito boa ❤😊
The first U2 song heard was Pride. I was 14 years old in 1985. His songs accompany me to the present day. From Brazil!
Pride is perhaps by far one of the most iconic U2 sounds of all time. Very powerful and very loud vocal. A perfect album with a spirit more focused on the elements of Mother Nature and a U2 sounding very loud and one of the most emblematic riffs of this Irish band.
Great wedding song on the sax 👊💖💖💖💖💖🎷🎷🎷🎷🎷

Awesome seeing the colour version!
Such beautiful blue eyes Bono has TwT ❤️
👁️👄👁️
So much better with color 😍😍
U2 will be one of my favorite bands of all the time!! 💕
THE NAME OF LOVE 🔥✊️🔥
So cool. I’m 20 and been a U2 fan my whole life ever since my Dad who’s the biggest fan on the planet brought me up listening to them. I love being around the same age as them now especially as I listen to their early albums. U2!
キング牧師にささげた曲で愛に勝るプライドはないとあります。懐かしい名曲ですがMVがカラーで観られるとは驚きでした。
当時の様子がよりリアルに感じられます。
私はU2が慈善活動を行ってることも尊敬してます。
Bringing back wonderful memories... Had a very happy childhood... Many thanks to my folks who appreciated timeless music...

They look younger because they were 20 somethings
School discos; as soon as the chords started to play, everyone was up to the dance floor ♥️
Much better than the black and white music video in my opinion would say.
The edge has always had his own sound. When you hear his riffs you know it's u2
Very rare indeed to watch Edge playing Pride with anything else than a Stratocaster.
Wow this cinematography is amazing! this is the only early U2 visuals clear enough i could find. after all this years i never thought that we will enjoying this one day. Thank you

The Golden age !
its too much better this way than sepia, we just wanna more videos like this
