#U2 #WhenLoveComesToTown #Remastered
Lyrics:
I was a sailor, I was lost at sea
I was under the waves before love rescued me.
I was a fighter, I could turn on a thread
Now I stand accused of the things I've said.
When love comes to town I'm gonna jump that train
When love comes to town I'm gonna catch that flame.
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down
But I did what I did before love came to town.
Used to make love under a red sunset
I was making promises I was soon to forget.
She was pale as the lace of her wedding gown
But I left her standing before love came to town.
I ran into a juke-joint when I heard a guitar scream
The notes were turning blue, I was dazed and in a dream.
As the music played I saw my life turn around
That was the day before love came to town.
When love comes to town I'm gonna jump that train
When love comes to town I'm gonna catch that flame.
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down
But I did what I did before love came to town.
When love comes to town I'm gonna jump that train
When love comes to town I'm gonna catch that flame.
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down
But I did what I did before love came to town.
I was there when they crucified my Lord
I held the scabbard when the soldier drew his sword.
I threw the dice when they pierced his side
But I've seen love conquer the great divide.
When love comes to town I'm gonna jump that train
When love comes to town I'm gonna catch that flame.
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down
But I did what I did before love came to town.
BB's Voice is a freight train.
True dat
As a young girl I wasn't as interested in him as Larry in that sun records shirt on drums wasn't he a beauty!?
This is the kind of music you get when legends jam.
This song is awesome but when BB's voice comes in it goes up a big notch.
I totally agree ❤❤
I was lucky enough to be living in Dallas Tx when they rolled through FT Worth for this concert in the 1980s. Scalped a ticket for $30 in the front row to the left side in front of the Edge. Maybe the best concert I have ever seen! BB King and band warmed up and then came on stage w/ U2 to play this song during the U2 set. I am always humbled when I watch this video.
Lucky!!!
Imagine if they did this song with SRV.
How very privileged we’re U2 to have played with one of the greatest 🤩
Heck YEAH ❤❤
I am An African and when I saw this rock band U2 acknowledge Black Music(through their album, Rattle and Hum) how it came to the USA and influenced the USA, through Gospel,Jazz,Rock'n'Roll,The Blues, I say U2 thank you at least acknowledging that it was the Black Community through Gospel that birthed Rock'N'Roll
r'n'b as we know it now, steamed form African and Irish musicians getting together and sharing each others music and 200 hundred years latter. hi presto
I ment stemed ie( came from)
Most musicians acknowledge it, and readily. Music business people, on the other hand, are shocked when anything bluesy or rootsy resonates with the public
Yes from slaves and death they play there music !! Thanks Africans
It's amazing what can happen when you cross cultures
To my mind, the best parts of this video are where these men - Adam, Larry, The Edge, Bono, and BB - smile at each other so joyfully. I suspect that the guys in U2 smile like that because they're thinking "Holy crap, we're playing with BB King!" And I guess BB smiles like that because loves music, and this song in particular. In a previous scene, Bono recites the line "I threw the dice when they pierced His side / But I've seen love conquer the great divide". BB hears that and says to Bono something like "You're mighty young to write a line like that." Awesome.
BB schooled then on the blues.😉🙈🙉🙊🎸
@@douglaspaterson5269 Well to be fair King schooled nearly EVERYBODY on the blues
there was another bit when BB said he was not great with chords and bono said the edge would handle them. amazing.
BB King added to the bad ass sound of this song! Much respect!
Without the great BB it would not have worked miss him. Great version.
It would have worked, but BB KING gave it the magic
Most underrated Song of U2
The voice of BB King is amazing
BB King
A True Legend, A True Human Being 🎸
A blues/rock classic I never get tired of listening to. King's guitar is perfect and his voice is bigger than a house. One of the all time best collaborations ever.
Indeed👌👌👌👌
So good
BB King, King of the Blues!!! Nuff Sed!! 🔥🔥🔥
I was there when they crucified my Lord
I held the scabbard when the soldier drew his sword
I threw the dice when they pierced his side
But I've seen love conquer the great divide
When love comes to town I'm gonna catch that train
When love comes to town I'm gonna catch that flame
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down
But I did what I did before love came to town
Hey, hey, yeah, yeah
Hey, hey, yeah, yeah
I mean U2 is Huge...but can you just Imagine what it was like to tour with the Great BB King?! And perform with Him ....Every night??!!!! WOW!!!👍🎸😎🙏
I am old, but one of the benefits of age is the opportunity to see great music of all types...I was at a U2 show in SanDiegoe when Rattle and Humm was shot and I saw BB that same year on the bay...supersweet that this tune stands as a great, all-time collaboration!
👍 Ditto - same here! I’m 70ish now, and have always 💞’d ALL genres of music! Over time, as I’ve aged I find myself appreciating it more than back in my ‘youth’. I spend more time listening, and discovering artists/music I wasn’t previously aware of. I think going to live concerts are wonderful experiences, and seem to enjoy them more than some of the ‘youngsters’ in the audience do (who are constantly talking, taking selfies, etc., rather than watching). Regretfully, I never had the opportunity to see U2, B.B., or many others I would have liked, but did attend Elton John’s ‘Farewell’ concert (2 X’s within a couple months of each other), Tedeschi Trucks Band, Eric Clapton, Coldplay - also had tic’s to both Alicia Keys + Zucchero but couldn’t find anyone else who wanted to go with me (nobody knew who the latter was). I already bought tic’s for Andrea Bocelli’s Holiday concert in Dec. @ MSG, NYC, and fortunately have someone who 💖’s his voice as much as I do!
I did what I did before Love came to town. Thank you, Jesus Christ.
Amen
Singing at the top of my lungs! What a cool song. One of the best collaborations ever.
"I did what I did before Love came to town". What a great lyric! Sounds like something Clint Eastwood might say 😂❤
Bb King makes this song happen
Edge: I've got this cool song.
Bono: how does it go?
Edge: I do this (plays one chord)
Bono: BRILLIANT!!!
Then got BB Kong hooked into it, and jammed with a legend!
Too funny man. Thanks!
🎶"I was there when they crucified
my Lord♥️✝️🩸
I held the scabbard when the soldier drew his sword
I threw the dice when
They pierced His side
But I've seen ❤️🔥LOVE❤️🔥
conquer the Great Divide"🎶
🚪🩸💥🌌✨️❤️🔥👑❤️🔥✨️🌌
BB is the King. No doubt.
One of U2's best songs and with BB King to put it over the top!
This is nothing without BB.
I love U2 but your 100% right, B.B. King just sends it into the stratosphere, great share Uncle Trick and my best to you and your loved ones, you have a great weekend now sir...
An old song they did together.
Amen
this doesn't happen without BB, U2 fans should recognize this...
I love it when artists collaborate. BB King brings such energy to this that no one else could. A very powerful song.
I love BB's chops and voice. I also loved how he would get involved with young musicians, specifically Eric Clapton, SRV, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, U2 and who knows how many others.
Secure in his own talents.
We were blessed to have him
When love comes to town,I’ll always be around😎
B.B King had some voice.
Dont understand how I never heard of this song before yesterday- the rhythm, the backbeat, the blues/rock mix - this one has it all, Classic!
Better late than never. One of the greatest songs of all time, one of the best by U2 and yes a timeless classic that sounds great all these years later thanks in large part to Mr. King.
@Stephen Bowyer: It's on the U2 album Rattle and Hum. Great album by the way! 👍👍❤
Me too! I just stumbled on it today!
U2 continues to surprise me with hidden gems. Wonderful band
I grew up with U2, Rattle and Hum was the first tape i ever owned. Got a chance to see B.B. King about a year before he passed. The nostalgia and seeing the Kings great presence live has made this song age so beautifully for me on a personal level.
Absolutely Awesome , I've seen BB King in concert but this with U2 is Killer
Ernest meet me in Vegas at the sphere in Vegas. The lads are recreating achtung baby for 12 shows
YesSir ur so lucky ..BB (&Lucille) really are 4Life ...
I am from Indianola, Ms which is the birthplace of B.B. and have seen him perform several times and he is great.This song with him and U2 is 1 of the best."The Thrill is not Gone".
I should make a play list of all the songs that give me large goose bumps. This one would be on the list.
Perhaps you might add INXS with Ray Charles on “Please (You Got That)”… to your list. Definitely on my list along with this one.
@@nadogrl I hadn't heard this one before. I was thinking you were wrong about the chills until Ray started singing. Ain't that something? ua-cam.com/video/NjptMYodpaQ/v-deo.html
If I should ever get to bat in the major league, I want this as my walk up music...
Absolutely 💫🎖️💯
When Love comes to town he will be carrying a Gun.
St Michael. 💜(🖤)
This is how it s done ladies and gentlemen
Yo yo
Gotta love it
bb king will live for evermore no lie
December 2022, timeless and amazing song! BB King took this song to the highest level!
BB was the driving force behind that tune.😉
Best U2 song. The Great BB King shines
Amazing song. When BB King sings....his vocals carry such amazing power. His phrasing on guitar is nothing short of magic. Bravo.
When Love Comes to Town" is a song by Irish rock band U2 featuring blues guitarist B. B. King. It is the twelfth track from U2's 1988 album, Rattle and Hum, and was released in 1989 as the record's third single. The song was recorded at the historic Sun Studio in Memphis. "When Love Comes to Town" reached number one in the Irish Singles Chart, number six in the UK Singles Chart, number ten in the Dutch Top 40, and number two in the US Mainstream Rock Tracks chart.
Great.
This is the real blues from the deep of the heart
Hell yeah
This song nails it
This is a BB king song.....with U2 guesting in.
U2 wrote it so 🤷♂️watch the R&H version
How about we get a 4K Remastered RATTLE & HUM. Let’s goooo!
@@kenichi407 12k!
How about U2 3D though?? That should be remasterable to at least 4K. Somehow I feel the recent Rattle And Hum videos released here "remastered" don't even match the Bluray-release's quality... Weird to be intentional?
@@kenichi407 You won't get much benefit from 8k master compared to 4k (4x1080p) from 35mm film... 4K version should still be better than the Bluray version though.
And all the outtakes released.
@@davidmreyes77 Director’s Cut w Time code removed.
We’ve all unfortunately suffered to different degrees. This song is truly amazing.
The maker of Rock. What a legend.
I thinks it's so cool that U2 teamed up with a legend like B.B. King and recorded this awesome song at the very place where Rock and Roll was born! 🎸❤🎸❤🎸
WOW 😮 - I would never have guessed a day would come when Bono and B.B. King sang a duet together! IMH 70ish y.o. opinion, thought they complemented each other 👍 in this performance and sounded great - 👏👏 to BOTH! I think each is talented in their own way, and have been listening to them for years.
There's only a few songs that can cause chills- here's one...
BB + Bono = BOSS ASS SHIT
You should put BB first.😉
@@douglaspaterson5269 u are correct, o/c - fixing it now...
When Love Comes To Town by U2 and B.B. King is an original and exhilarating music collaboration. I admit that I mainly know of the existence of this 90s classic music gem because When Love Comes To Town was on a greatest hits U2 cd that a caring female friend had purchased for me by around the Christmas season timeframe during the late 1990s.
This song.....always hits me like a freight train.
What a great classic! B.B. king was awesome! Rip 🙏 great collaboration. 👌😎👍
Man
What a SONG it is. I could listen to it DAY AFTER DAY with no pause. Never ending earworm
Damn...BB really belted this one out!!!!!!
This may be my favorite U2 song, although Desire is close. Bono sounds amazing here.
B.B. KING GOT SO MUCH SOUL DAMN PASS ME THE CHITLINGS. BEFORE LOVE CAME TO TOWN!!!!MUCH RESPECT TO THE MAN. R.I.P.
This song is totally amazing and awesome 👌 👏 👍 ☆☆☆☆☆ rest in peace 🙏 BB u will always be remembered ❤️ ♥️ 💙 💜 💖
God bless BB King
No doubt, one of the best performances in Rock n Roll. This terrific band and BB King…what more could you ask for? It doesn’t get any better than this!
I just need my ex wife with me again to hear the passion and the power in this song.
A well seasoned Blues man and a raspy young Irish man 🎶 These are a few of my favorite things ❤

Such a great song!
Awesome lyrics... Bono is easily in the top 10 of great lyricists.
Even more amazing when I read the lyrics...................where is this quality of music now?????
Maravillosa letra e interpretación
Can someone help me?
I don't understand the phrase
"When love comes to town I'm gonna jump that train." Why would he go on a train without paying when he feels the love of Christ? I couldn't find another meaning for "jump that train"? I'm so confused.
One of my favourite U2 songs with the legendary BB King. ( I did what I did before love came to town).
U2 is simply the best.
I agree with you.
BB King is a legend.
nope
U2 rulez. Who needs The Beatles?
Brilliant Brilliant song. BB was the perfect choice for this awesome track. 👍
1:25-1:27 me when someone says that U2's music has NO SOUL
A TIMELESS CLASSIC! 80"S MUSIC RULES!! LOVE U2 & B.B. ALWAYS! the dj
Dang 1987? Whew time fly's!
I thought Joshua Tree was ‘87? This was ‘88 or ‘89?
if you understand what is happening right here , right now , know you will reap the reward of eternal life.
NIV BIBLE. PSALM 2.
Music transcends religion, language,nationality, race, etc. It is a universal language and ppl connect all over the world. Put down your guns and pick up an instrument, learn how to play, connect with it, fellow musicians and people everywhere.
When a singer like BB opens his mouth to roar, best to just step aside and surrender the mic.
BB King is God. rip
Gotta LOVE THIS❤🎉

My only reaction is this is one of U-2's best songs when B.B. King was included in the make.
