This is the real U2, A rambling gypsy band, with folk and American country roots. Bono was the real deal, he had it all as a frontman. The band behind him were quality, and subtle at the same time. Absolutely vintage.
Even the band admit they have no folk and American country roots. They tried this sound on, and it worked some of the time, but this is no more "the real U2" than Achtung Baby or anything else they did.
I fell in love with this song when I heard it live at the JTT 2019. I’m shocked to say that what I heard live last year was just as good as this performance, if not better. I wasn’t alive when this concert took place, so the U2 of the 2000’s + is all I know. They are still absolutely magnificent.
I saw this actual show. The best concert I've ever seen and I've seen a lot! There's a version of 'bullet the blue sky' on UA-cam from the same show: the sky is darker because it was an evening show. Everything about that concert was tremendous. I'm glad they still kill it live.
Look at the cameraman whos looks middle aged hes smiling his ass off Bonos smiling at him so cool The Joshua Tree is regarded as this mahogany serious baroque masterpiece and one of the most happy songs ever written.
Probably my favorite U2 era Joshua Tree, and Rattle and Hum albums, This song, Trip Through your wires, Red Hill mining town, God's Country, Heartland,, God part 2, Tin can town are my favorites
This is the best song on "The Joshua Tree". It still blows my mind it never got played on the radio. It leaves so many of their radio hits in the dust with regard to hooks, melody, and emotion.
I used to crank this DVD and wake up the neighbours!!!! Now I rock on in my bedroom with the headset on!! I love the multi-colored tape on Bono's mic!!!😀
Wow! Time train to the past, To the days where there was taste, and purpose, manners and intentions, and a sweet singer name Bono, Singing with red rose and standing with fire in his mouth. There were days....
Thanks so much for this post! This is one of my all-time favorite U2 songs and THIS is one of my all time favorite renditions of this song. MMMMMMMMMMMMMM.
How about the guitar in this song. The Edge either from the edge of town OR the way he plays guitar. Not only that but Joshua Tree tour dominated the airwaves !!!
Lions at the heart of their prime, top of game, not about to let another pretender to the throne even a sniff at competition. ready to devour, ready to eat young, angry at even those presuming to smack at bits of their leftovers. What ever happened to this fuck-all visceral wolf pack.
The Paris set is far superior to the recent Madison square garden concert, think they were going to release the Paris one but then thought they’d go with the Rattle n Hum concept.
the greatest optical illusion, the bass player's face (the one who looks like Egon Spengler from 'Ghostbusters') is positioned next to the microphone He doesn't sing
This song is so under rated.
ShazGreenock Incredibly
could not have said it better myself....if they had stuck to this blueprint, it might have been scary.
not to knock evolving artistically.
Wow feel the emotion go right through!!!!
It’s not.
Carlos Betancourt What ?
Came for the song, stayed for Bono's scrunchie and friendship bracelet.
Amanda Allen LoL you did not haha haha

Roger Ewing Precisely
Jamison Lamkin Awesome response 👍
Wow the Energy and Charisma they produce!
Even the band admit they have no folk and American country roots. They tried this sound on, and it worked some of the time, but this is no more "the real U2" than Achtung Baby or anything else they did.

i meantto say one of the happiest songs ever written is in it.my bad.
Larry’s drumming in this is very underrated
He's indeed a very talented and gifted drummer. Wish he were appreciated more
80's was the best decade of music...
This is what I freaking call music!
Dylan Rainbolt Wooooooo! Yes!
Probably my favorite U2 era Joshua Tree, and Rattle and Hum albums, This song, Trip Through your wires, Red Hill mining town, God's Country, Heartland,, God part 2, Tin can town are my favorites
I´ve been looking for this 1987 concert for so long and at last I found it! Bono´s voice is better than ever in these live versions
Manucamarista it was released on dvd a few years ago in a Joshua tree box set.
His voice sounds amazing ❤️
@@carolostrandeer4107 that is what is incredible, no auto tune, no lip sync, but as good if not better than the album!
Bono looks so happy this must be one of his favorite songs life is good for him
The most beautiful song on The Josua Tree!
I AGREE WITH YOU
Nop. Its desert rose whos is best...
Red Hill Mining Town and One Tree Hill too!!
I love this version of this song it’s alive and kicking😊😊❤xx
Always one of my favorite U2 songs
This is the best song on "The Joshua Tree". It still blows my mind it never got played on the radio. It leaves so many of their radio hits in the dust with regard to hooks, melody, and emotion.
This is one ☝️ of the happiest songs I have ever heard all about finding that special someone a person who cares about you
Does not get any hotter than this!!!!
Melody Newkirk Especially when he says wet my lips Omg
Hello gorgeous. Isn't he just beautiful...a true king indeed. 👑👑👑
Stacy H. Soooooooo
They have many many great songs and this is definitely one of them, incredible ✌️✌️
There many joys in an innocent friendship to be found a happiness based on understanding
How come u2 sounds better live?..... wow!!!
DIna Abdalla always have...
The mark of a great rock band.
I used to crank this DVD and wake up the neighbours!!!! Now I rock on in my bedroom with the headset on!! I love the multi-colored tape on Bono's mic!!!😀
I LOVED Joshua 🌳
Love this song so much❤
I can’t stop watching this awesomeness❤️
I played this CD so much during the 90s that it reminds me of the 90s. Loved this song and album
Wow!
Time train to the past,
To the days where there was taste, and purpose, manners and intentions, and a sweet singer name Bono,
Singing with red rose and standing with fire in his mouth.
There were days....
When Bono was cool, just a simple rock and roll singer.
Octavio Andrade Jr. Right!
I AGREE WITH YOU
What a singer 👍..
I agree 100%
A pure soul without the influence of outside sources corrupting his spirit
great song , herd it in state of grace , great sound .
AWESOME!!!
Com apenas 27 anos esses caras já éram gênios do rock!
amen

Great quality! Great performance as well.

Bono laughing and giving Adam a wink when edge messes up the lyrics 🤣
Pena que bandas assim não existem mais .
What a powerfull music. Perfection of sounds, vocale and Instruments
Idk how so many songs got underrated nowadays this song was on the biggest album of the year 1987 I guess it's just a thing to say on UA-cam
Greatness. Proof of the Divine.
Best of the best.
"You set my desire.
I TRIP THROUGH YOUR WIRES..."
A RAIN CLOUD IN THE DESERT SKY...I WAS CALLING OUT, I WAS CALLING OUT...
THIS IS SO AMAZING TO WATCH AND SAVE LOVE U TO POST THIS VIDEOS
Sometimes the harder you try the more you are rejected best the friend you know than the devil 😈 you think you know
An album song that would be 1st in another band's repertoire.

UNOS MUSICOS YJENIOS DE TODOS LOS TIEMPOS
Harmonica to a tune :D x
Phenomenal lyrics, poetic, inspired by bible verses or at least most of their songs come from bible verses or are inspired by the verses.

BEST VERSİON JESUS FUCKİNG CHRİST MAN
Gary Oldman getting crazy at the bar!
Bono on fire

The Paris set is far superior to the recent Madison square garden concert, think they were going to release the Paris one but then thought they’d go with the Rattle n Hum concept.
ANGEL OR DEVIL...

the greatest optical illusion, the bass player's face (the one who looks like Egon Spengler from 'Ghostbusters') is positioned next to the microphone
He doesn't sing
Very good, shame you are selling out for bad stuff
