My father was in the hospital, his health was really critical. I received a call from the hospital, the doctor wanted to talk to me about my father. I didn’t know at the time, but when I received the call my father already passed away. So I took my car, put the first song I found on my phone, just to listen something while I was driving to the hospital and that was the song I accidentally found. I was a U2 fan already for decades, always listening to their songs. But for some reason I never listened that song at the time. And that song made me drive to the hospital in a completely feeling of peace that I never could understand. It was like my father was with me, helping me to calm down, preparing me for the hard talk I was about to have with the doctor. Still today this song is very special to me. A little bit sad some times, but also a song that in some way bring me peace. Like a small moment with my father once more.
You chose a beautiful song ,and I also have never heard it before. It's like your Dad was making you pick this to remember him by every time you hear it or choose to play it going forward.
This haunting song combined with Bono's eloquent vocal cuts right to the bone. Saw them in Edmonton Canada and still consider it the best concert I have seen. Have been a fan since they started out. One of the best!

That raspy voice crack @ 3:37 ….is what’s called “perfectly imperfect” …..and it’s the only thing better than actual perfection. It’s what makes Bono, Bono yo !
"Every gambler knows that to lose is what you're really there for." "Every sailor knows that the sea is a friend made enemy, and every shipwrecked soul knows what it's like to live without intimacy. I thought I heard the Captain's voice..." "Are we ready to be swept off our feet and stop chasing every breaking wave..." The waves, the sea, everything about this song is pure poetry and easily top five for Bono's best lyrics. This is more than heart on sleeve stuff -- Bono ripped his heart out here. Sublime and oh so bittersweet.
Always loved u2 bonos lyrics always hit the right place but this one like I read someone else say rips the heart out and shows it still beating to you...
Met him Bono and his wife back in 2007 at Dublin airport. He was off as usual to do some gig in foreign lands.He was queuing up at check-in like everyone else refusing VIP treatment. I put out my hand to shake his and he obliged. I told him it was pleasure to meet him and he said likewise! I said I don't want an autograph but wanted to tell him that his voice reminded me of a mature wine the older it got the better it tasted. He laughed and thanked me. They don't make em like that anymore.
What a fantastic privilege you had dear Francel. I wish I had met Bono too, when I lived in Dublin ( Eire), in 1999/2000. I know I will meet him someday! Bless you!
100%. I think Bono's voice has simply gotten better. Go back and compare his early voice to now. No comparison. His voice sounded flat and not nearly as capable to emote and convey.
That voice a gift from God! Bono has managed to recapture almost all of his range from the early days with a hint of rasp at the top end. Like a fine cognac this band and Bono's voice have aged very well. Awesome!!
Best performance I have ever seen, as he sings toward the open air boats and ocean. No sound proofing just nature! Amazing! 'End it before we begin'....the most important verse of the song, sang once.
His voice, his voice is something rare and unique! One of the best voices in the music history. U2 after 40 years are on the top...what a band, they are the pure meaning of the word Artists!
Agreed. I have one thing I need to say. Do not compare this band to The Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, or other bands that have not broken up and will do a song or two at an awards show or benefit every couple of years. U2 has stayed together and relevant for 40 years and releasing new music continuously the whole time. This is true artistic greatness.
My favorite version of this song is this one right here at this house with the porch on the shore. It’s the best version hands down. And the weather- Symbolic - cloudy like the unknown souls wondering if love would work this time.
His voice has not gotten better, he can’t hit the notes he once did, doesn’t have the vocal control he once did, take aStay for example, the song was just breathtaking live in 1993, now he can barely sing it.
Bono and U2 are the soundtrack of my life. Every up and down, every heartbreak, and beautiful day. This captures my soul at this moment. Thank for your amazing voice, heart, and hand as you wrote and sing this. You are a gift from God.
How true! The lyrics to their songs have so many meanings to so many. They truly are a religious experience to me each time I listen thru their entire catalog!
I was born in 70' became a fan in 83'. Unfortunately, I had responsible parents that I just couldn't quite convince to let me go to those earlier gigs (ha). The raw and boundless emotion and energy, ah... Maybe before I kick the bucket technology will make it possible to go back and experience things, like a rock concert, from our past in VR. Anyway through thick and thin, love and heartbreak, ups and downs, life and death, showdowns and lockdowns U2's music has been, always, there like a trusted friend. Gracias amigos!
Simply beautiful. Those four men are the most unique band in music history. The adaptation, the experimentation, remaining relevant for 40 years and beyond. Incredible.
I wouldn't as far as to say they're the most unique band in history by any stretch. But, they have made many masterpieces and this song is their ultimate achievement with regards to songcraft.
@@one_with_kevrything9825Matter of opinion.. I've been buying U2 records since age 13, I am now 57. I have literally witnessed their evolution of sound and experimentation. In my opinion, they're the most unique.
This makes me cry, what a beautiful song and voice. I love U2 since forever, they makes me feel so free and so full of life, even when i feel i can't go on, they bring me back to life in every song. They make me discover feelings i did'nt know i have. Bono's voice is so full of life, omg i can't stop cryin. Sorry for my bad english. XOXO from a Venezuelan fan
Same here way back to the early eighties. I can listen to any of their albums and it never gets old. I do however get sick of Bonos twisting politics and will take a break every once in a while.
U2 is one of our best groups in history. The music they have given us, and the important topics they made us aware of . We are all lucky to have had a band in our lives the last 40 yrs. Sooooo much timeless music. A gift from god
Wow Bono's Technique and pitch control is amazing at almost 60! He Has So much power! His voice has been getting better and better lately. he is getting his iconic voice back that he was known for in the 80's as far as i can tell from this video! if you listen to his technique, its much like the technique he used in 84-86. ive alwayed loved his beautiful voice and im very happy he is singing with so much soul and passion again.
Jake Taylor I agree.....his voice has suffered over the years, starting from the mid 90s in my opinion. I was suprised how strong he sounded here...when he nails it...he nails it and he is up there with the greatest.
I was listening for any after concert pitch touch-ups to the vocals, and I didn't really hear anything. He really does sound incredible here, just like rattle and hum
I can't tell you how many times I've come back to this video, this performance. I can't tell you how many times I've needed to hear it. How many times it pulled out of me what I needed to feel and let go. It's utterly transcendental yet visceral. It would've been a dream to have seen and heard this in person. Love is my religion and U2 is my gospel
Suas palavras dizem tudo que eu gostaria dizer sobre minha impressão ao ouvir essa canção. Penetra em nossa mente, alma e coração! Visceral e espiritual! Obrigado! Muitíssimo obrigado!
Same here...... This is an amazing performance... wow.. The voice and the peaceful vibe of the musicians and the people... I would have liked to be there.
I always thought the soul that U2 put into their songs was the best thing about them. It doesn't matter if its a stadium with hundreds of people or a small concert on a porch. They always bring their absolute. Thank you gents for putting your art into the world
That's what I love about U2: after all these years in the show business, they're still able to show up in a street alley, in a store, in the metro With Fallon, on a porch and play to the people. Right there. No stage. Just a simple show. I love that.

Lyrics: Every breaking wave on the shore Tells the next one there'll be one more And every gambler knows that to lose Is what you're really there for Summer I was fearlessness Now I speak into an answer phone Like every fallen leaf on the breeze Winter wouldn't leave it alone, alone If you go If you go your way and I go mine Are we so Are we so helpless against the tide? Baby, every dog on the street Knows that we're in love with defeat Are we ready to be swept off our feet And stop chasing every breaking wave Every sailor knows that the sea Is a friend made enemy And every shipwrecked soul knows what it is To live without intimacy I thought I heard the captain's voice But it's hard to listen while you preach Like every broken wave on the shore This is as far as I could reach If you go If you go your way and I go mine Are we so Are we so helpless against the tide? Baby, every dog on the street Knows that we're in love with defeat Are we ready to be swept off our feet And stop chasing every breaking wave The sea knows where are the rocks And drowning is no sin You know where my heart is The same place that yours has been We know that we fear to win And so we end before we begin Before we begin If you go If you go your way and I go mine Are we so Are we so helpless against the tide? Baby, every dog on the street Knows that we're in love with defeat Are we ready to be swept off our feet And stop chasing every breaking wave
Since 1980 I’ve loved this band and they have always, always given as much love to their fans as they give to each other. Bono’s voice is one that as soon as you hear it, you know it’s him. There never ever will be a band that’s perfectly match as these 4 musicians.
Every time I hear this song . It helps my heart heal. I miss my Sweet Wife Lisa with all my heart and soul. Thank you U2 . You bless my heart Daniel Edward Spivey
U2 were amazing in Melbourne in November 2019, they had 70 thousand people singing every song. I saw them in 1989 and afther 30 years they have lost nothing, I was totally blown away.
84'.first time I heard them.. 35 plus years.. dying to see them up close. 13 shows over the years.. won 5th row center stage tickets to Joshua tree.. picked them up at will call and handed them to my 22 yr old nephew and his new wife.. I've lived the legacy.. time to pass it one.. the look before and after the show was completely priceless.. not one second of regret!! Thank you boys.. priceless songs , faces and memories..
Can't believe that there are people making videos with their cellphones instead of enjoying this unbelieveble moment seeing and hearing this awesome perfomance that they have been giftet with
Credo che siamo in tanti ad essere stati richiamati dal tema della Leggenda Personale che Paulo Coelho ha fatto risuonare in ogni angolo del mondo. Perché è esattamente quello che il nostro cuore sogna. Che ognuno di noi, venendo al mondo, ha un suo compito e una sua missione. Che essere al mondo non sia senza significato. Che essere vivi voglia dire essere destinati personalmente a qualcosa. Che la nostra vita individuale sia un’avventura speciale dotata di senso. Nessun sapere scientifico ci darà la certezza su questa faccenda. Però, nessun sapere scientifico ha la forza di escludere che il nostro sogno possa realizzarsi. Che i nostri desideri profondi abbiano una loro verità. E allora, in tanti, incominciamo a interrogarci per capire cosa, dentro di noi, è in grado di segnalare il senso della nostra vita.
Simplesmente incrível... Brasileiros vms dar like aí... mostrar q os brasileiros unidos somos fortes em qualquer lugar do mundo... também somos incríveis como U2...
Every breaking wave on the shore Tells the next one there'll be one more And every gambler knows that to lose Is what you're really there for Summer I was fearless Now I speak into an answer phone Like every fallen leaf on the breeze Winter wouldn't leave it alone Alone If you go If you go your way and I go mine Are we so Are we so helpless against the tide Baby, every dog on the street Knows that we’re in love with defeat Are we ready to be swept off our feet And stop chasing every breaking wave Every sailor knows that the sea Is a friend made enemy And every shipwrecked soul knows what it is To live without intimacy I thought I heard the captain’s voice But it's hard to listen while you preach Like every broken wave on the shore This is as far as I could reach If you go If you go your way and I go mine Are we so Are we so helpless against the tide Baby, every dog on the street Knows that we’re in love with defeat Are we ready to be swept off our feet And stop chasing every breaking wave The sea knows where are the rocks And drowning is no sin You know where my heart is The same place that yours has been And we know that we fear to win And so we end before we begin Before we begin If you go If you go your way and I go mine Are we so Are we so helpless against the tide Baby, every dog on the street Knows that we’re in love with defeat Are we ready to be swept off our feet And stop chasing every breaking wave
You are feet from a rare intimate performance by a lead singer who will be remembered for generations to come, and your are looking at your phone. I know the saying to each his own, but the lack of awareness of people beyond themselves is the true epidemic.
This is such a brilliant performance and will never understand how people view it through the camera or text while this is going on. It is beyond mind-numbing.
Beautiful, I've been a fan since 1983 and grown up with this band. Born and bred Irish and so happy that I can say I've also grown with the band. Bonos vocals have got such control. Wow and wow again sir.
One day i startes itunes and there was „Songs of innocence“. I wondered but startet to listen to it and noticed the wonderful songs, especially „every breaking wave“ - it‘s such a beautiful song and touches my soul everytime I listen to it. I also noticed the discussions and anger about releasing the album at the itunes cloud and that it appered to anyone‘s account - which I just can‘t comprehend because without this I would have never had the idea or intention to listen to this wonderful album. I just want to say „Thank you“ to U2 and itunes for giving me access to this wonderful music ❤️
One of the best bands ever -- been around for ages yet still going strong. Seems like U2 has a song for every great and devastating moment in our lives.
Ive been listening to U2 since 6th grade on my tape player back in 89' and to see this video 34years later is magical, by far best version of this song. beyond that is this most special occasion for this most lucky person to have done at their house im still trying to figure out how on earth was so lucky/fortunate!, but that to hear his voice and passion put into his song after all these years to hear his soul attaining an artistic musical level beyond measure is truly wonderful thing to witness..to think of all the people's lives they have influenced in such good ways in all these years, its truly so inspiring to me and unbelievable recording of this song and to be so lucky to have witnessed this im sure! Only saw them once in my life at the Tacoma Dome during the all you cant leave behind tour when album first came out like 99' or 2000.
My father was in the hospital, his health was really critical. I received a call from the hospital, the doctor wanted to talk to me about my father. I didn’t know at the time, but when I received the call my father already passed away.
So I took my car, put the first song I found on my phone, just to listen something while I was driving to the hospital and that was the song I accidentally found.
I was a U2 fan already for decades, always listening to their songs. But for some reason I never listened that song at the time. And that song made me drive to the hospital in a completely feeling of peace that I never could understand. It was like my father was with me, helping me to calm down, preparing me for the hard talk I was about to have with the doctor.
Still today this song is very special to me. A little bit sad some times, but also a song that in some way bring me peace.
Like a small moment with my father once more.
I am sorry for your loss, and yes music is here to help us through our lives
Você é muito especial 🌷🙏🇧🇷
❤
You chose a beautiful song ,and I also have never heard it before. It's like your Dad was making you pick this to remember him by every time you hear it or choose to play it going forward.
Dieses Gefühl von diesem Lied ist etwas ganz besonderes. Mein Beileid
This is not a song, this is a miracle.
It’ll be the miracle when the two people that were apart for years get together
Amen brother
National anthem !!!
@@luvwings;
It turned to my miracle..May they be blessed to the degree they have blessed us!
The people who watched this live are blessed.
Expect that one lady in red who talked and bothered people
3:36 the two ladies at Bono's left knew on the spot how special this moment was. So epic!
2025 and i’m still hooked to this supernatural wonder, anyone else?
Sim ,aqui em 2050.
Me! I've just learnt it on my acoustic guitar 🎶🎵
This is one of the band’s most underrated and under appreciated song. Beautiful.
As well as this song been one of there most underrated songs the album it came from Songs of Innocence (2014) is very very very underrated
My fav
in which universe do u live?

This haunting song combined with Bono's eloquent vocal cuts right to the bone. Saw them in Edmonton Canada and still consider it the best concert I have seen. Have been a fan since they started out. One of the best!

40 years later, still doing big stadiums and intimate crowds , much love and respect for this band.

True musicians indeed
Saw them on May 10th 1983 at Woolsey Hall in New Haven CT. Bono's 23rd birthday! Great show!
yes. Depeche Mode too

Met him Bono and his wife back in 2007 at Dublin airport. He was off as usual to do some gig in foreign lands.He was queuing up at check-in like everyone else refusing VIP treatment. I put out my hand to shake his and he obliged. I told him it was pleasure to meet him and he said likewise! I said I don't want an autograph but wanted to tell him that his voice reminded me of a mature wine the older it got the better it tasted. He laughed and thanked me. They don't make em like that anymore.

sweet. he us the only one on my list i haven't got to meet
Bono hasn’t flown commercial for more than three decades. Cute story though 😉
Never met U2, but always loved them...got better with time.....first gig croke park 1987, amazing!!!
They didn't tour 2007 and they go on a private jet FFS 🤣🤣🤣 hope you enjoyed your attention 🤣🤣🤣
Again and again, I come back to this performance, and I weep. I just cry. I don't know why, but I just do. What lyrics, what a voice, what a moment.
Your not alone. Take care

U2 are like good wine. The older they are, the better they are!
100%. I think Bono's voice has simply gotten better. Go back and compare his early voice to now. No comparison. His voice sounded flat and not nearly as capable to emote and convey.
Makes the hair on my neck stand up. Bono is so casual, but conveys so much emotion. Unbelieveable performance
SHRIMPMAN!!!
Hair on my neck? 😅Does something like this exist?
This is LIVE!?!? Far out. Not many artists can do this. Amazing
It was actually up close and personal...
Anzjuli Venter There is a reason why they are the best live band since 40 years now......haha
See Jimmy Fallon U2 Ordinary Love
Bono (U2) is one of the best in absolut..
There are singers whose sound is good on records, but U2 is the kind of singer whose sound is impeccable on live performance.
They're truly amazing!
Often he sounds better live
Only love can leave such a scar , And only love can heal such a scar... Man ain't that the truth. Powerful.
That voice a gift from God! Bono has managed to recapture almost all of his range from the early days with a hint of rasp at the top end. Like a fine cognac this band and Bono's voice have aged very well. Awesome!!
Thank you for this true gem 🎼🎉
Best performance I have ever seen, as he sings toward the open air boats and ocean. No sound proofing just nature! Amazing! 'End it before we begin'....the most important verse of the song, sang once.
He wrote this song at the request of Steve Jobs. & Jobs approved.
This was after Hurricane Sandy and that house survived!!!
Very well said pat ,💚☘️👍
No words to describe the superb control and raw emotion he delivered in that unbelievably hard song to vocalize.
Brings tears to my eyes every time.
he delivered while sitting )
🤷♀️ De
It's miraculous. I've tried singing with him, but I don't know where to start. I guess the trick is in feeling every word.
Beautiful message!
His voice, his voice is something rare and unique! One of the best voices in the music history. U2 after 40 years are on the top...what a band, they are the pure meaning of the word Artists!
Mac Phisto ABSOLUTELY!!!!!!!!!
Agreed. I have one thing I need to say. Do not compare this band to The Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, or other bands that have not broken up and will do a song or two at an awards show or benefit every couple of years.

the edge and bono only version with letterman is still tops
The greatest singer of the last four generations. All due respect to Freddie.
The greatest singer and band ever!!
its true one of my best favorite frontmen.....
I second that bro 👍😁
I am a huge U2fan and love Bono, but don't think we can compare with Freddie, two different and great artists indeed.
Well thats a bold statement 😳
His voice just gets better, he sounds amazing!
I agree ... very spot on !
Can't deny that. His voice was always amazing but it has gotten better over the years.
❤️
Yes it does and the rest of the guys are getting better and better all the time.
His voice has not gotten better, he can’t hit the notes he once did, doesn’t have the vocal control he once did, take aStay for example, the song was just breathtaking live in 1993, now he can barely sing it.
If I were stuck on an island forever and I could only choose one song to listen to...this version of this song would be it.
I miss you dad. This will forever remind me of you 💔

I’ve been listening to U2 since the early 80’s, this is BY FAR my favorite performance. Bono’s voice here is nothing short of angelic.
Agreed. Raw.. No studio magic.. Just real and beautiful.
its from songs of surrender where they do 40 new versions of their old songs

One of the best comments on here Erik...and true.

Jake Taylor GREAT VOICE Amazing voice!!! 100% Amazing! 💟🌟💟
why can he not bring this voice to his classic New Years Day with the beginning scream
I can't tell you how many times I've come back to this video, this performance. I can't tell you how many times I've needed to hear it. How many times it pulled out of me what I needed to feel and let go. It's utterly transcendental yet visceral. It would've been a dream to have seen and heard this in person. Love is my religion and U2 is my gospel
Bom
Suas palavras dizem tudo que eu gostaria dizer sobre minha impressão ao ouvir essa canção. Penetra em nossa mente, alma e coração! Visceral e espiritual! Obrigado! Muitíssimo obrigado!
@@MsAnderson1974 It does, my fellow human. It really does.
jolie m'en dit bravo !!! pretty says bravo
Same here...... This is an amazing performance... wow.. The voice and the peaceful vibe of the musicians and the people... I would have liked to be there.
Pure class and such a beautiful tune, wow!
GorillaStreetFood what a voice
Love u2,, they have m3nt so much to me...
10/2019 i'm here, world.
Hugs and peace from Brazil.
I always thought the soul that U2 put into their songs was the best thing about them. It doesn't matter if its a stadium with hundreds of people or a small concert on a porch. They always bring their absolute. Thank you gents for putting your art into the world
Juste merveilleux merci U2, j ai grandit avec vous aujourd'hui 51 ans..encore merci
That voice. Devastating in the best possible way.
That's what I love about U2: after all these years in the show business, they're still able to show up in a street alley, in a store, in the metro With Fallon, on a porch and play to the people. Right there. No stage. Just a simple show. I love that.
gahan101 i agree, my respect. I hope they will never dissapear from world.
Perfect comment.
Ikd…… I just discovered this yesterday, and to me, it is one of the most beautiful, heartfelt and soulful songs that I’ve ever heard.
Makes me want to cry every time I hear the song.
Oh my God this band was put on this earth to make my life heaven. 😃😇
Just Awesome.
this band was putted by God straithly to teach us how incredible is his power!
Linda Redlick I agree with you 100 percent!!!!!!!!!
Been listening to U2 since 1987, the year I graduated, The Joshua Tree, and they are still U2. These guys just get better through the years.
Kevin Davis I got into them with Unforgettable Fire and I agree with you totally
1977 .... from Dublin
1984 from Co Clare ✌️ & ♥😁 😂 😂 😁
1983 from Italy💕Bono...my life!
They started in 1976
Lyrics:
Every breaking wave on the shore
Tells the next one there'll be one more
And every gambler knows that to lose
Is what you're really there for
Summer I was fearlessness
Now I speak into an answer phone
Like every fallen leaf on the breeze
Winter wouldn't leave it alone, alone
If you go
If you go your way and I go mine
Are we so
Are we so helpless against the tide?
Baby, every dog on the street
Knows that we're in love with defeat
Are we ready to be swept off our feet
And stop chasing every breaking wave
Every sailor knows that the sea
Is a friend made enemy
And every shipwrecked soul knows what it is
To live without intimacy
I thought I heard the captain's voice
But it's hard to listen while you preach
Like every broken wave on the shore
This is as far as I could reach
If you go
If you go your way and I go mine
Are we so
Are we so helpless against the tide?
Baby, every dog on the street
Knows that we're in love with defeat
Are we ready to be swept off our feet
And stop chasing every breaking wave
The sea knows where are the rocks
And drowning is no sin
You know where my heart is
The same place that yours has been
We know that we fear to win
And so we end before we begin
Before we begin
If you go
If you go your way and I go mine
Are we so
Are we so helpless against the tide?
Baby, every dog on the street
Knows that we're in love with defeat
Are we ready to be swept off our feet
And stop chasing every breaking wave
❤❤❤
My soul is thankful for U2
A beautiful moment in time. God bless Bono and The Edge 🙏🏻💚🇮🇪
Since 1980 I’ve loved this band and they have always, always given as much love to their fans as they give to each other.
Bono’s voice is one that as soon as you hear it, you know it’s him.
There never ever will be a band that’s perfectly match as these 4 musicians.
A voice and a piano, a simply magical atmosphere. What a voice ! 👍
After finishing Surrender found this now - a full heart
One of the greatest singer song writers ever !!!
it's amazing how you can taste his love for "singing" through his voice. It is rare to find it in current artists ... many do it for money.❤
That's actually a great comment and so true. I was thinking something similar as well
One of my favourite videos on RUclips.
Wow. Bell of a voice ! Since I first heard this voice in 1980 I’m still in awe of Bono and U2 !!!
It’s hard to listen while you preach. You learn this with age, hopefully. I love this performance. 😊
Lo máximo U2
You know every person who was at this show will remember this for the rest of their lives.
you got that right
Then there's that girl playing with her phone, lol
@paulvillalba9433 I know right?
@@workingwithpaul She stopped and was paying attention later in the song. Bono's singing definitely caught her attention.
I can't live without this man
Every time I hear this song .
It helps my heart heal.
I miss my Sweet Wife Lisa with all my heart and soul.
Thank you U2 .
You bless my heart

U2 were amazing in Melbourne in November 2019, they had 70 thousand people singing every song. I saw them in 1989 and afther 30 years they have lost nothing, I was totally blown away.
Nice music for all the times
And now we have corona 🤕
84'.first time I heard them.. 35 plus years.. dying to see them up close. 13 shows over the years.. won 5th row center stage tickets to Joshua tree.. picked them up at will call and handed them to my 22 yr old nephew and his new wife.. I've lived the legacy.. time to pass it one.. the look before and after the show was completely priceless.. not one second of regret!! Thank you boys.. priceless songs , faces and memories..
Great story. Way to pay it forward.
Can't believe that there are people making videos with their cellphones instead of enjoying this unbelieveble moment seeing and hearing this awesome perfomance that they have been giftet with
always the best band , U2 forever
This song just speaks to my heart, this version is amazing...
Bono’s voice magnificent ❤
Fantástico simplesmente u2
Credo che siamo in tanti ad essere stati richiamati dal tema della Leggenda Personale che Paulo Coelho ha fatto risuonare in ogni angolo del mondo. Perché è esattamente quello che il nostro cuore sogna. Che ognuno di noi, venendo al mondo, ha un suo compito e una sua missione. Che essere al mondo non sia senza significato. Che essere vivi voglia dire essere destinati personalmente a qualcosa. Che la nostra vita individuale sia un’avventura speciale dotata di senso.
Nessun sapere scientifico ci darà la certezza su questa faccenda. Però, nessun sapere scientifico ha la forza di escludere che il nostro sogno possa realizzarsi. Che i nostri desideri profondi abbiano una loro verità.
E allora, in tanti, incominciamo a interrogarci per capire cosa, dentro di noi, è in grado di segnalare il senso della nostra vita.
Da Cagliari ❤

Every single week I listen to this
Every breaking wave on the shore
Tells the next one there'll be one more
And every gambler knows that to lose
Is what you're really there for
Summer I was fearless
Now I speak into an answer phone
Like every fallen leaf on the breeze
Winter wouldn't leave it alone
Alone
If you go
If you go your way and I go mine
Are we so
Are we so helpless against the tide
Baby, every dog on the street
Knows that we’re in love with defeat
Are we ready to be swept off our feet
And stop chasing every breaking wave
Every sailor knows that the sea
Is a friend made enemy
And every shipwrecked soul knows what it is
To live without intimacy
I thought I heard the captain’s voice
But it's hard to listen while you preach
Like every broken wave on the shore
This is as far as I could reach
If you go
If you go your way and I go mine
Are we so
Are we so helpless against the tide
Baby, every dog on the street
Knows that we’re in love with defeat
Are we ready to be swept off our feet
And stop chasing every breaking wave
The sea knows where are the rocks
And drowning is no sin
You know where my heart is
The same place that yours has been
And we know that we fear to win
And so we end before we begin
Before we begin
If you go
If you go your way and I go mine
Are we so
Are we so helpless against the tide
Baby, every dog on the street
Knows that we’re in love with defeat
Are we ready to be swept off our feet
And stop chasing every breaking wave
U2😍
Thank you ♡
Emon Rahman Some very powerful lines there!
In love with defeat!
Thanks a lot for the lyrics.
@@shilarangarajan 👍
What Bono did right there is outstanding, an outstanding World class singing performance... Doing THAT while sitting down is just... Amazing
Feliz de quem estava presente nesse momento e assistir essa maravilha !!!!!!!
I am a BIG fan of You. We are from the 1960. I am from Caracas Venezuela. But... I AM an architect and musician by love ❤
You are feet from a rare intimate performance by a lead singer who will be remembered for generations to come, and your are looking at your phone.
I know the saying to each his own, but the lack of awareness of people beyond themselves is the true epidemic.
It makes me so mad !!! I would be taking pix, crying, taking in every single second.
Maybe the song made them realise they need to say something to someone
It’s a lesson learned in time for many of us who are among those lucky enough to have learned it at all.
This is such a brilliant performance and will never understand how people view it through the camera or text while this is going on. It is beyond mind-numbing.
Best, yesterday, now and ever.
This is amazing! The best song and the best musicians ever!
Beautiful, I've been a fan since 1983 and grown up with this band. Born and bred Irish and so happy that I can say I've also grown with the band. Bonos vocals have got such control. Wow and wow again sir.

Must be a really underrated song. I just heard it today for the first time. It's breathtakingly beautiful!
Nothing is even remotely comparable !!! Thank you Bono..!
One day i startes itunes and there was „Songs of innocence“. I wondered but startet to listen to it and noticed the wonderful songs, especially „every breaking wave“ - it‘s such a beautiful song and touches my soul everytime I listen to it.
I also noticed the discussions and anger about releasing the album at the itunes cloud and that it appered to anyone‘s account - which I just can‘t comprehend because without this I would have never had the idea or intention to listen to this wonderful album. I just want to say „Thank you“ to U2 and itunes for giving me access to this wonderful music ❤️
One of the best bands ever -- been around for ages yet still going strong. Seems like U2 has a song for every great and devastating moment in our lives.
IKR
Ive been listening to U2 since 6th grade on my tape player back in 89' and to see this video 34years later is magical, by far best version of this song. beyond that is this most special occasion for this most lucky person to have done at their house im still trying to figure out how on earth was so lucky/fortunate!, but that to hear his voice and passion put into his song after all these years to hear his soul attaining an artistic musical level beyond measure is truly wonderful thing to witness..to think of all the people's lives they have influenced in such good ways in all these years, its truly so inspiring to me and unbelievable recording of this song and to be so lucky to have witnessed this im sure! Only saw them once in my life at the Tacoma Dome during the all you cant leave behind tour when album first came out like 99' or 2000.
Mate, love your comment. Ive been in love with the band since 81. Stay real buddy!
