For me, this guitar performance ranks as one of the Edge's best. He's a genius.
agree with you
I wasn't a huge fan of No Line on the Horizon when it first came out, but over the years that album has aged fairly well. This song and Unknown Caller seriously rock and have provided the soundtrack to some seriously wonderful moments in my life.
Magnificent as well
I agree
Never got the negative responses to No Line on the Horizon. This song is one of at least five or six on it that are really among the band's very, very best. The passion, the textures, the energy all are as rich as any they have produced. And it certainly didn't sound the same as what came before -- rather a completion of and finale to all that. The band's even more mature work since has been fascinating and a whole new phase.
Breathe stands out to me as awesomely as anything the band has done.
Graham Pilato have you also noticed how particularly creepy and relevant the second verse is now?!! 🤭😷
i've got exactly the same thoughts about it, exit/lemon/your blue room are among that list in my opinion
"I'm running down the road like loose electricity, while the band in my head plays a striptease." - one of the best lyrics ever!
This song is a pure poetry
I think Breathe and Moment of Surrender are some of the best songs U2 has created and released in the last couple decades
I'd kill to be able to see the band in a venue this size. This song is awesome too - the last chorus after the guitar solo is just magic - "Sing your heart out" is just such a joyous line - it's what I do every time I've seen them.
Best song on NLOTH for me.
Me too! You get to be closer to them and it's another feeling than the one in big halls. Absolutely of their best songs ever written - the lyrics, the music, their performance and the message... a masterpiece!
Serious I HAVE to get to a concert before they'll quit!!
Living legends, I can hear their music everyday of my life without getting bored
We love U2!!!
It’s 10 years later, did you get to one?
@@selenesimonson9930 haha this is quite confronting, but no, not yet. I still haven't found what I'm looking for. ;)
Surely one day though! Thanks for the comment
No kidding man, their next tour, any show - you have to go! I know I will and I'm dead serious! They are simply magnificent!
me too. i feel same way
Edge is AMAZING here...I have always admired him.
real rock n roll. not pop. what a great song. u2 needs to go in this direction. not the mainstream direction.
U 2 deserves the title "Greatest Rock and Roll Band of the World " Sorry Stones fans..
That’s what they get in my world.
Really love fez being born and cedars of Lebanon from the no line on the horizon album 2 beautiful songs...god they have so many gems that medicate the soul
This is just unbelieavable that this band of the biggest in the world had played in my neigborhood theater ....
Surprised this song ain't more popular.
Some cool lyrics. "Every day I Die again and again am reborn"
Love the triplets in intro
'Breathe' is my personal fave from N.L.O.T.H.-- along with 'Moment of Surrender.'
They still are a Band of Hope, Reflection and Question's of our Human Spirit. I am not the 'Fan' I used to be like in the 80's but God Bless them they still sound Good.But you know they and their fans are 'Getting Old' when Larry is starting to look a lot more weathered these days,but screw it! I'm glad I was a Fan, and still am.
I CAN BREATHE NOW cuz there is nothing u have that i need and the reason i can stay by myself and not feel lonely
This is my favorite song on the new album. Breathe
It's so good that U2 is still making great music.
"These Days are Better than That"
and yes it's true "Every artist is a cannibal and every poet is a thief, we steal for inspiration and sing about our grief..."
U2 Please don't ever quit making albums, you need to go out like Johnny Cash (Singing to the end, I think his last album was his best album) So I wanna live long enough to hear your last album...30 more years to U2?
these days are so, so, so, much better
people who leave negative comments are only out for a riot. Just ignore those fools :-) !
cheers and greetings from Holland!
Is this lyrics a freaking 2020 prediction or what?
It was. Now listen again to their newer song Blackout and you can predict the future a little bit more :)
Prophetic
Their best album yet...I love the fact that the music and lyrics take time to really, really sink in. Each listen brings something new. Nobody on the planet is doing what these guys are doing. Incredible.
He would sound better than most guitar players out there but with the effects he sounds better than any guitar player out there.
Coolest old guys ever!!! Biggest band on the planet for obvious reasons!!! Music keeps getting better and better!!!
People are commenting on the fact that U2 isn't getting much airtime in the US. Well that is because the public is calling for the shitty music of Miley Cyrus, the jonas Brothers, lady gaga, brittany spears etc. U2 is still making incredible music. If the United States public would wake up they would find incredible things in U2 TODAY. "Breathe" is an example of this. Take a listen to "Moment of Surrender". Phenomenal.
Every CD U2 has ever released has been incredible. Sure some a lot more attention than others but each had a specific sound and message.
u2 gets better like fine wine.. Killer band, killer sound..
I have to say that I really want to hate each new U2 album.......but every time they release one, I end up enjoying it.....gues that is why they are soooo good?
i like u2s music. i enjoy their songs. Bono seems nice. so does the rest of the crew.....
Totally agree with U2 is a religion!!! The world is a better place because of these 4 best friends from Ireland!!
i have never tested the max volume of my 5.1 surround set,
until now
sounds awesome, other side of my big home i could listen this beautifull solo too :D
that guitar epi growls man - brilliant
If anybody hasn't seen it yet, DO check out their performance of this song from Dave Letterman's show. It absolutely SMOKES!!
U2のライブから放たれるエネルギーはすさまじい。ボノの飛翔感あふれる歌唱力はいつだって素晴らしい。久しぶりの来日を首を長くして待ってます。
There will always be haters for any band that gets big. That's just the way it is.
Personally, I like Coldplay more than U2, but I still respect U2 for what it's done.
The hand of the Lord was upon me, and he brought me out in the Spirit of the Lord and set me down in the middle of the valley; it was full of bones. 2 And he led me around among them, and behold, there were very many on the surface of the valley, and behold, they were very dry. 3 And he said to me, “Son of man, can these bones live?” And I answered, “O Lord God, you know.” 4 Then he said to me, “Prophesy over these bones, and say to them, O dry bones, hear the word of the Lord. 5 Thus says the Lord God to these bones: Behold, I will cause breath to enter you, and you shall live. 6 And I will lay sinews upon you, and will cause flesh to come upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and you shall live, and you shall know that I am the Lord.” Ezequiel 37
Best song on that album
U2 is my oldest love in music. Bono's voice, Edge's great sound and guitar playing and the solid and original spine of the band with Larry and Adam who are always forgotten... Juts one of the best bands still active that never changed a band member and that was never afraid to take chances. I would love your input on our last video. If you have just 3 minutes to listen and a bit more to comment, that would mean the world to me : ua-cam.com/video/ufF4gUA_6rQ/v-deo.html
dont forget giant stadium....106,973...More than the pope...U2 is the reason why im alive and being in the front row for that show was like being born..37 shows and still ready to fight for the sound of the song..God bless you for being a true fan..Chris..aka..cbono
yeah i wuz there too and this song blew me away! i still haven't found what im looking for...nobody seems to have posted unforgettable fire!
thank you U2 for music that hits me in de middle of my soul !!

Bono destroyed his voice - but he is my beloved performer off all times. The older, the better. I listen to 'Breathe' and I know I'm alive.
He never destroyed his voice
A band like U2 and DOG SAVANNA are the best band of rock and roll the world!
Great
! The more I listen to it, the more interesting it seems to me.
...
The roar that lies on the other side of silence
The forest fire that is fear so deny it
Walk out into the street
Sing your heart out
The people we meet
Will not be drowned out
There's nothing you have that I need
I can breathe
Breathe now
Yeah, yeah
We are people borne of sound
The songs are in our eyes
Gonna wear them like a crown
Walk out, into the sunburst street
Sing your heart out, sing my heart out
I've found grace inside a sound
I found grace, it's all that I found
And I can breathe
Breathe now
16th... I'm looking forward to it ❄😍...
The Sommerville Theater is great place to watch a performance. A 1,0000 seats approximate and every one has a great view of the stage. Must have been a great night!
Indeed. It was my favorite opener.
Bono's voice back at full strength - a true joy to listen to. :)
U2 you are so good, can't explain the feeling but I m vibrating listening their song.... Bono you have amazing voice
This song leaves me breathless.....what song...what guitars.....just breathless.
I LOVE U2¡¡¡¡¡*
La mejor banda del mundo0!!!!
this song is very beatlesesque and i love it
One of the most successful school garage bands ever.
I can understand your opinion. Yes they where an incredible band when I was growing up. Not many bands can get along together for so many yrs. In just about any high stress prof career you eventually get tired out. You can't go decades pumping out high energy acts & not suffer. If they where prof sports players, imagine trying 2 play in the major leagues for 30 yrs? Or artists like actresses, models any high profile job w/ constant media attention, your every move in life, judged by the public.
I'm breathless
Best song ever!!!
My teacher played this song in our assembly at school! :)
Another awesome tune from the masters...Love it
this is the first time i heard this song, if you understand the lyrics, he talks about a great time in irish history, such a good song!!
I love these guys ... the band U2 and Dog Savanna are the bands that I like to hear! Viva Rock!
This is a really good version of this song.
EDGEEEEEEEE.........yeaaaahhhhhhhhhhh :)
True rock n' roll 👏👏👏
love u guys forever and thx for all the good music and lyrics that speak to my soul. Happy New Year wherever u are.
Agreed with all your sentences. Thanks. It's amazing those who don't see the reoccurring cycle.
wow great performance I think that even surpassed the studio version
at 3:45 is absolutely epic stuff!
Essa música é uma obra de arte. Início suave, meio chocante, e, para o final o grande ápce. É como uma opera!!!!
My favorite U2' song

Best song of the millenium thus far.
Love this song!!
This was done in my home town and I never thought in a million years a huge band like U2 would ever play there. Just to clear the record. The Somerville Theater is in Somerville MA. and not in Boston. Although it is close to it.
Todas músicas dessa banda ,são fantásticas ,amo muito ,trilha sonora da minha vida .....
Great live performance!
Love this song.
It was played better on the 360° tour.
I found grace inside U2´s sound, It´s all that I found
thank you
While this was happening, I was one mile up the road sleeping. wtf? I will be kicking myself forever about that!!!!
Goddamn! Now that's how it's done.
don't say a world....magnificent!!!u2 are so AMAZING!!!!GRANDE BONOOOO!!!DAJJJJJEEEEEE!!!!I LOVE IT!!!!
thumbs up if you are ready for U2 360 to begin touring again!!!!!!!!!!
This may not be the best performance of Breathe, but U2 is still awesome!
There's nothing you have that I need.............I can breathe
I love U2... have since the 80's .... I think they're still really good but I wish they would write more varied sounding songs.... in one way it's good to hear a band where you can expect a certain sound out of them but on the other hand my favorite bands are the ones who constantly modified their sound and pushed themselves compositionally and stylistically e.g. The Beatles, Radiohead, The Police, Pink Floyd, Yes, Soundgarden...
77 people died but were not reborn.
