#u2 #antonczachor - Розваги
Bono is a wonderful person. He is a loving family man (married his high school sweetheart and they just had their 40th anniversary) , he is a advocate for human right and so much more. Now, being older, he sounds so peaceful funny and wise when you hear him talking. I have the highest respect for him 🥰
I do too. He's a humanitarian above all else. They all are.
When they played early on in their career in Belfast, they were set to play Sunday Bloody Sunday. Since it was about The Troubles and the 30-some citizens of Derry who lost their lives to the soldiers shooting them in the streets - Northern Ireland (more personal) struggle versus theirs on a daily basis with bombs going off down the street from their homes, etc. - they felt maybe they shouldn't do the song there.
Bono spontaneously said to the crowd: This is Sunday Bloody Sunday. If you don't like it, we'll never play it again. The crowd loved it. But can you imagine any artist or band doing that - saying they'll never do one of their biggest songs again if those most affected by the subject matter didn't want it? Incredible.
The song about MLK and that infamous kiss of betrayal by Judas..U2 have a way of blending world events and Christianity in some of their music. That’s one reason why they’re my favorite band ❤️😍.
Have yu listened to the lyrics to When You Look At The World? Quite the stunning lyrics to that one. That last line too. wow.
When I Look At The World I meant.
I believe "one man hung on a barbed wire fence" is a reference to Peter Fechter.
U2 my favorite band ever! Irish Pride ☘️
It's like The Edge is playing both lead and rhythm at the same time. Simple amazing.
Well, that’s probably mainly
because Paul/Bono can’t really play guitar 😅
@@JamesKovacic Well, he can, but shouldn't is what he and bandmates have said >.<
He can play piano and harmonica well, and his voice and singing more than make up for it!
They have always written songs that have a message to the world. That’s what you saw in his eyes. He’s speaking to the world and generations to come.
The boys are really young here, we're going all the way back to '84. There's a fun clip here on UA-cam called "U2 - Bono recording Pride (In The Name Of Love)". It's a grainy recording of Bono laying down the tracks for this song and Eno/Lanois and the band are both taken back and yet amused/charmed with him for how worked up he was getting while singing. He really is a fascinating person though; I look forward to his autobiography "Surrender" that is coming out later this year (also on UA-cam if you search "Out Of Control - 'SURRENDER: 40 Songs, One Story' by Bono").
He does really get worked up and into what he's doing always, but that's a great clip demonstrating that!
The clip you’re referring to is from the documentary “The making of The unforgettable fire” released on VHS. This video (Pride) is on that film too, together with a live version of Bad and a live version of A sort of homecoming (both edited so it’s not like raw live videos).
Wonderful reading of Bono
You are really starting to get it. Keep doing more U2.. you are just scraping the surface as to how special this band is. To go off what you said I believe the story goes Bono's Mother was told by a fortune teller she would one day have a famous son. So that sort of plays into what you were saying. But with U2 even the B sides have meaning and lyrics are true poems for this group. Enjoying your reactions, keep it up!
Yes, the B-sides and deep cuts, just as good as the singles and hits!
@PressStartOne really?? Where did you hear that? Also what a great nick you have. Resonates with me.
Great review , always enjoy your u2 reviews.
You have to review every breaking wave live from the mtv ema’s 2014. Unbelievable vocal and performance from Bono. Came just after the Apple release backlash and he really comes out fighting for his band. One of his greatest performances I think
Bad - live aid . The performance that put U2 on the map ( red rocks did that but live aid took it to different levels ) again all about Bonos vocals and performance
Red Rocks was amazing and there is a song waiting in the wings I'm requesting from there, and Bad from Live Aid too :)
You nailed the ethos of the man and the music…well done I will look for more of your content
If it weren't for the drummer, there'd be no U2! It all started in his kitchen after he'd put an ad on the bulletin board at school. Bono was one of the respondents, but he made it clear that he couldn't sing at all, or play any instrument. He had attitude though, so we're glad he still gave him a chance.
I saw his family walk past me at a concert, they were are carrying T shirts "The Larry Mullen Band" ^^'
The Edge is very good at creating an atmosphere and a driving a guitar sound. He has indeed a very characteristic sound. He is not the flashy guitar player, but amazing in his own way.
The song is referencing to big people who sacrificed themselves. The obvious ones are Jesus (one man betrayed by a kiss) and MLK (Early morning April four, a shot rings out etc). Others might be Dietrich Bonnhoeffer (barbed wired fence), Ghandi (the man resisting) and Roger Casement (washed upon a beach). He is singing about how these people made sacrificing for the greater good and love.
Forgot something else lol. Regarding the Edge's playing: he knows how to make melodies/atmosphere with his playing and lead guitarists don't normally do that or know how to do that.
You have to react to U2 Until the End of the World its alot darker and more of a heavier rock song and it has an epic guitar solo
Yes, nice one!
Totally agree but the song has to be done live . On par with where the streets have no name as U2’s centrepiece live song. So much better live then on record
@@christianreynolds9252 if it was done live it would have to be between the original Zoo TV Tour, Slane Castle or the I+E Tour, all of those are epic versions!
@@anthonymotta8264 yeah definitely. I also have a soft spot for the elevation boston dvd version. I got into the band 2000/2001 and that dvd introduced me to some of U2’s back catalogue. Until the end of the world being one of them .
@@christianreynolds9252 Lets be honest
No matter what version, whether it be studio or live, from the 1990's to the 2010's it is an EPIC U2 song and i is grossly underrated
Do yourself a favor and venture into some of the Zooropa and Pop tunes. They are a real departure from their albums before and after those two. It's some of my favorite U2. Discotheque, MOFO, Please, Staring At The Sun, Dirty Day, Lemon, Daddy's Gonna Pay For Your Crashed Car and Stay (Faraway, So Close) are all great and highlight the band's versatility and willingness to experiment.
I cannot tell about others who help to make U2 popular, but As for me, they completely abducted my soul when I first heard and watched “Sunday Bloody Sunday”. That moment I was 10 years old and kind of woke up to realities that I was not aware. He was the kind of Morpheurs to Neo to me 😉. And he kept repeating that for more than 40 years.
U2 have always been advocates of humanitarian causes and commentators on the realities of the world. It's in their blood.
beautiful. Follow les lapins blancs
Would love you to review U2 - 11'o'Clock Tick Tock live from red rocks, such a stunning live version of one of my favourite U2 songs
Love that one and wish he would watch all of Red Rocks, tbh! And, some others like at Slane Castle and Live Aid. He's going to see Bad from Live Aid next month - the one that set them on their course to superstardom. The thing about that performance isn't that it was such a great song or such a great performance; it was more about how they had no idea how much the world decided to love them after it. They were very down and disappointed in themselves, the band miffed at Bono for disappearing for 2.5 minutes. What could they do? They didn't know where their singer had gone so had to keep playing the same bit the whole time, or stop playing altogether. I've heard that Bono's ad libbed 50 different songs over all the appearances of Bad in concert. lol!
The song is about non-violent human rights activists throughout history (one man betrayed with a kiss: Jesus by Judas, for example) and inspired by MLK Jr. In an interview I saw, Bono said his parents were mixed: one Protestant and one Irish Catholic. He grew up in Dublin during the Troubles so this was noteworthy. His father told him he didn't approve of how the Irish in N. Ireland were responding to violence from the English with violence; that non-violence was the way. This speaks to why Bono says at the beginning of Sunday Bloody Sunday (the live version) 'This song isn't a rebel song. This song is Sunday Bloody Sunday'.
Bono (and the rest of the band) is a big human rights activist and it comes out in their songs a lot over the years, and they are involved in several causes. I never thought about how he has a kind of faraway look when he sings sometimes until you mentioned it, but it may have something to do with his passion about worldly matters.
As someone else mentioned, yes, it's great you are getting it about why they got so big. I noticed this time that you are commenting more and more about the Edge's playing and how unique it is. He has a very light touch, typically, and oh so recognizable style and sound. Yes, Bono is mesmerizing, he pulls you in with his passion and emotion. Every single song they do has that element. And, there are so very many for you to hear as some have mentioned! A lot of non-U2 fans say Bono is arrogant, but that is not at all what I've seen/heard in interviews. I've noted respectfulness, passion, and a lot of emotion, even humility from the band in general over the years. But yes, there is a definite confidence there! In interviews I mostly hear him discuss things at a higher or philosophical level.
I chose this song because they were so young in it (although their first song was a hit and they were 19-20) and it is more of a rock song all the way through and you haven't really heard any like that yet. It isn't one of my very favorites by them, even though I love it. I'm trying to show you several sides of their music across a few decades, so I'm glad they're growing on you - it's gonna take a couple years just to show you a smattering of their best songs, especially since a bunch of their deep cuts were as good as or better than their singles.
Mostly I'm glad you're enjoying them, and I am very much enjoying seeing you start to see what fans saw in them in the beginning and over the years. The details, like you mentioned before. I have to add his passionate and emotional delivery is one of the reasons for their success and of course brilliant lyrics and music don't hurt!
Great reaction, as always!
I really should have told you this before but in 1987, they were campaigning for Dr. Martin Luther King's birthday to become a national holiday here in the States. There were many who didn't want this, and there were threats against Bono's life if they performed in Arizona. The FBI tried to insist they don't go on and play the gig. Bono and the rest of the guys decided they would. And, they did the song as part of their setlist.
When they got to the third verse that is about MLK Jr. (as Bono related in their induction to the R&R HOF speech) he was 'excited to meet his maker, but maybe not tonight'. He continued saying that he closed his eyes when it came time to sing that part and then when he looked up, Adam Clayton, the bass player for U2, was standing in front of him playing.
Bono finished by saying that many people will say they'll take a bullet for you, but Adam would have that night. Bono said 'that's what it's like to be in a truly great rock and roll band'.
Thank you for the reminder Laura Allen!
You have no idea of the magnitude of what you did here. Thank you my friend
U2 is the conscience of rock and roll.
They played this in Arizona mid 80s when MLK day was first being proposed. There were protests and threats against Bono, so bassist Adam Clayton stood in front of him as a shield against violent fanatics at the show
Love your analyses. You know what your talking about!❤
Forgot to say: what you said about that confidence that they just seemed to know they would be gods, I'm not so sure they always felt that, although they may have exuded it. At Live Aid where they weren't as well known yet, Bono introduced them in a humble manner as an Irish band. The've never behaved in a cocky manner, but many seem to think that of Bono. I think his confidence and otherworldly persona make it appear that way at times to some people. Also, a lot of people don't like 'do-gooders' which is weird as I find it admirable people of that stature try to help the world at large.
Brian Eno once said "The biggest crime in England is to rise above your station. It's fine to be a pop star. 'Oh, it's great, lots of fun, aren't they sweet, these pop stars! But to think you have anything to say about how the world should work? What arrogance!" I think that's why Bono is disliked by some people, they think he is pompous, arrogant and egotistical, but he's misunderstood many times. He could choose to support causes quietly and donate to charities in his own time, but he chooses to use the fame and status he has been given to help make a difference.
@@andrewfineberg9349 Exactly! Yes, he/they wouldn't be able to make as much of a difference or impact if they did it quietly. Bono has met with several presidents (of the US) and took some heat for meeting with GWB. Why should he not meet with him - because they have differing views politically? All the more reason I would think!
"U2 is very cool" Yep!
I love your psychoanalysis of Bono. I've always viewed him as a combination of mother Teresa and Gandhi. When you hear him speak about the world and politics he's so incredibly well spoken and thoughtful that he almost seems God like. But I don't think he looks through people he looks into people
I have followed this band since this time 1984 and their songs have always come to my rescue emotionally.
if you watched the movie Moulin Rouge, you could have heard just that one "in the name of love" part.. sung beautifully but very briefly by Ewan MacGregor in one of the songs that was a medley of a bunch of famous pop songs
Until the End of the World , Bad live
I want to request both of those and many more. I think Bad from Live Aid would be perfect.
Bad ,live "Wide awake in America " and " Where the streets have no name ","Until the end of the world " live from Slane castle!!
For the longest time when i was little i thought Air Supply and U2 where like the same band 🤣 I Know.... My mom use to listen to certain bands on repeat but this was huge because between moving from Pr and Italy this song was somehow in my memories.
That Farah type hair puts a smirk in my face. I dont know if i could of handle men with more hair spray than me not that now we dont have bizarre things but that was very common. I wasn't like crazy about U2 but they have a very unique sound and Bonos voice is iconic.
haha about the hair! The styles back then were something else!
Check out I Will Follow, it's they're first music video from their first album.
Love this song, it's one of my favorites. I've noticed when you speak of U2 you usually mention Bono. He's wonderful but they are a team, have been together since 1975. Adam Clayton is an exceptional bass player and along with drummer Larry Mullen, they're the backbone of the band, it's rhythm section. Their beats are phenomenal. And The Edge, whoa! he's powerful and funky and majestic. I think you're beginning to see why they are so important; they matter because they care. Other songs to check out: Angel of Harlem, Where the Streets Have No Name, Night and Day (from the Cole Porter tribute album, a dance floor delight), With or Without You, The Fly, Mysterious Ways, Ultraviolet (Light My Way) another favorite of mine, I can go on and on. More U2 please!
I'm working on it - requesting them one song at a time. At this rate of one per month, he'll hear all their best ones by 2026 🤣 I've got 6 done now, only 35 more to go.
Yeah, they've been together since teenagers and Larry put an ad for a people to form a band. They showed up to his house and no one wanted to sing. According to Edge - Bono opened his mouth and it was all over lol! Larry was just 17 when Boy was released, and two of them were 19, Adam 20 I think. I saw some early footage that shows them on a boat, black and white, and I swear Larry looks about 12, and the rest look 15. Just children. They worked hard though.
Edge is definitely amazingly creative. I found out how he gets the chime-y, lightly distorted sound. It's his plectrum. He uses a very thick one with dimples/bumps and turns it round the wrong way and hits the strings with the wide end of it.
What Anton said about Bono seeming not really there: I get that because he so gets into what he's doing, he loses himself. He puts his whole self into everything and it's never more obvious than in live performances. You can just tell how deeply he feels everything he does on stage.
@@lauraallen55 Thanks so much for your efforts to get U2 played, so glad you're on the case!!!
@@ohfour-seven6228 We'll have a few more coming soon too!
@@lauraallen55 Thanks for keeping me informed, I can't wait!
@@lauraallen55 indeed, it's the combination of a Vox AC 30 guitar amp, an incredibly specific digital delay effect, and finally, a Herdim guitar pick held backwards.
This is one of the famous rock Irish band from the 80's and it's considered the only rock well known
The best mullet of all time
East Link toll bridge...used to walk across that every morning on my way to work
Great Anton. Enough praise from me. Would love to hear your reaction to either "Bad" live, or one three hill. Thanks for all that you do. Irish in Taiwan. x
Maybe when I pick up with them again, you should hear more of their early power stuff like this and With Or Without You. Sunday Bloody Sunday, New Year's Day, Bullet The Blue Sky. I definitely need to show you the video/song of their very first hit in 1980. Larry was 17 and the rest were just 18 or so. It's crazy how young they look in that one - I Will Follow. His voice when they were super young like this was so powerful and strong. He learned to give colors to his voice, but his power voice in his prime was something.
MLKjr 1.15.29-4.4.68
"Early morning, April four
Shot rings out in the Memphis sky
Free at last, they took your life
They could not take your pride"
The way you talk about Bono's eyes makes me think you should check out the video for "Sweetest Thing", that's one continuous POV from the perspective pf his wife while they ride on a carriage
That song was really different for them to me. It was an apology song to his wife for - I think - forgetting her birthday. Not the greatest thing to do after being married since they were kids ha ha! I agree that Bono's eyes are very intense (as he is in general) and he is a very charismatic and magnetic figure.
@@lauraallen55The funny thing with that is that the song was written long before the video and the new, and in my mind much more boring and lame, version was released.
@@andubh9360 Of The Sweetest Thing? I love the 'alternate' version. Heard it for the first time on the extra CD I got with the Best of when it came out. I had liked the one with the video that we heard first everywhere until I heard the other. Now I never listen to that one. Agree the other version makes it seem a bit boring.
@@lauraallen55The alternate version as you call it is actually the original song and was released fifteen years or so before video and the more known version. (Which means that the later, more known, version actually is the alternate version and the lesser known version is the original ”real” version - and the version that was written, recorded and released fast and as Bonos beg for forgiveness for forgetting Ali’s birthday. So the rereleased version wasn’t released because he forgot Ali’s birthday.
@@andubh9360 I called it that because it was alternate to what I and most people knew. It's called 'the single version'. Whenever it was written, I like it better than the one we saw. It was for forgetting Ali's birthday. What's the problem? I originally said 'it' was an apology for forgetting her birthday as in the song was. And it was, yes? I never said the later version was for forgetting her birthday. I didn't say anything about the versions. After you commented I gave my opinion the other version (whatever you want to call it) is better.
Gotta do The Fly
U2 wrote songs that make you want to sing along to them, with 40,000 other people in a football stadium. And made a killing doing it. You can call it commercial, or sellout, or whatever, but there is something to be said for the genius of that simple formula.
I don’t know if you can call it pure sellout or commercial writing songs that are anti war/anti violence (Sunday bloody sunday, Bullet the blue sky, raised by wolves, Please, Love and Peace or Else, etc, etc), about drug abuse (bad, running to stand still), faith, human rights, and other pretty “heavy” subjects.
And many the songs have some spiritual/ religious meaning - in the sense that if you are religious or know the scriptures you’ll get more out of the songs than we who don’t, not in the sense of preaching or trying to get people religious.
So I wouldn’t call sellout or commercial. Their songs might sell a lot - but there’s not sellouts and they’re definitely not simple lovesongs or made to hit the charts or just to sell and make U2 a lot of money. They have something to say.
So gorgeous and talented 🙌
The unforgettable fire is my favorite U2 song. Plus Clannad ft. Bono: In a lifetime.
Bonos singing performance in In a lifetime may be the best performance in his whole career.
Something almost military/ spiritual in their sound.
Unforgettable.
Bono is third violin in this band after Adam Clayton and The Edge
❤️
Im late i know but i would love to see you react to One Tree Hill.
Hey Anton FOREVER 💟👋👋 Always the great smile together that is always present Anton FOREVER 💟😁😄😆😍🥰🤩🤗 Thank you so much for talking about U2 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙆🙀 woohoo 😀🙂😀 Great with U 📺🎧🎤 You are still as sensational as always Anton FOREVER 💟♥️🙏🏽 You always surprise us 🙏🏽🙏🏽 You make us spend very good times with you on UA-cam with a smile together always present 🤣😂🤣😂😀😘☺️☺️ fantastic 🥳🥳 Above all, don't change and never even Anton FOREVER because you are really super awesome for all of us on UA-cam 📺🎤🎧🐱💯💥🎊🎉 Woohoo 🙀🙆👌🏽 CoooooooooooooooL with U 🙏🏽🙏🏽
DUDE DUDE...DO U2 ..........'Refugee' classic U2
Early U2 has a spiritual resonance. It's hard to pull off. The Joshua Tree album is their best IMO.
Definitely. One of the best albums of all time.
LU2
KARIZMA!!! ;) Bono has the best peyote.
What are they teaching/taught in schools of the under 40 crowd?! The Jesus reference and MLK assination reference flies right over their heads. We studied MLK in Jr. High and Highschool and my schools were 98% white students (not sure why,it just was).Watched many reactions to this awesome track and none of them knew. Smh
Anton was raised in Canada so maybe it's different there than in the States? But, yeah I get your point.
and now you discover U2 ?! Dear god ...
Just have a look to BAD at Live AId 1985....
It's done and will be up soon!
Anton Please do a reaction to this live Version from 2018 of " With or Without you " it's a U2 classic I've dropped this link to you already Hoping you won't ignore it " 🙏🎤🎸🎶
The live versions of With Or Without You are stunning. I saw them do it on the Elevation tour. Amazing.
Song about MLK
,
Dude you don't even let 20 seconds of the song go in and you're already blah blah blah I was going to subscribe but no way now bye
congratulations on gimping yourself
My former account was called Bono Sapiens and this man here just delivered the best analysis of Bono, in real time mind you, I've ever come across.
Congrats again!
@@luketimewalker Luke time Walker? Bono Sapien? lol 😂
Don't quit your day job you "Weird Al Wannabee!" Did I hurt your feelings?? 😅
@@scottyhotty1003 oh no the dayjob quip, congrats you are as original as a bot.... carry on
On second thought the Weird Al one is good lol
@@luketimewalker the irony of this all is that I love U2 and think Bono is amazing I was just critiquing the maker of this review...😅💯🎶👍
@@scottyhotty1003 he really deserves 10 minutes of we diehard fans' attention. I'm sure Bono himself would love to hear what this man has to say.
One word… BAD
I have one more request after 7 months of requesting U2 songs from Anton, and since Bad at Live Aid was blocked, I think I'm going to request a different live performance of Bad....Hmm...maybe lol.
