I think Boston 2001 elevation tour concert was peak of U2 era cus when they launched "all that u cant leave behind" it put them back on the map and they won a bunch of awards.
@@LegacyArts. you really think their Boston concert of 2001 was peak U2? cmon. watch Red Rocks 83, or Live Aid 85. hell.... even Rattle & Hum.... Bono was a beast in the 80's
@@coldacre oh dont get me wrong, those concerts were really amazing as well. Red Rock's bono and energy are just off the charts. Rattle and hum's Helter Skelter was an amazing rendition. & even Zoo Station was not that bad. Not the biggest Pop fan. But I think each concert showcased u2's progress to success and also gave us a look at their talent. Trust me. I also love all of them and the do play a special place in my heart, but I'm saying cinematographically and melody-wise they really had a great show and the playlist was also amazing in 2001s. I think slane deff had great titles too, (not played on 2001 Elevation tour) and same can be said for 2005's Chicago vertigo tour. Each one giving something new and innovative from the band, but for me 2001 Elevation's tour will hold a high place always cus their relaunch + new style & catchy songs that resonated with a lot of ppl during that time after the 01 incident in NYC if u catch my drift. Idk there was something about them singing during this time that made it very unique and special.
"My old man, 500 pounds. I want to thank my old man for that 500 pounds!" Gets me every time. My late father paid 500 dollars for my first drum set, and I still play. For that, I'm eternally grateful to him. RIP Dad and Mr. Bob Hewson.
Fathers who encourage their sons to play music are special and rare. I will forever have that one of a kind bond with my dad because of him believing in me
After my dad died in April and I was seeing his writings, it reminded me that somehow, someway my love of writing poetry started with him. :’) we can absolutely pass down the best of ourselves to our kids if we so choose. Thanks dad.
I hated U2 as a kid, my best mate was a super fan but I just didn't get it however, he bought me a ticket to see them in 1993 at Roundhay Park in Leeds. I had an epiphany that day, off my face on weed and stella artois, they were spectacular, I've seen U2 11 times since that day, I'm by no means a super fan but they are without doubt the best band I've seen outdoors 👍
@@oreally8605I was at this show. Can attest to the fact that it was mythical. They had come back from the wilderness to become the biggest band in the world again. Bonos, dad having passed recently. First show after Bobs funeral was good, this show was U2 at the height of their powers as grown men. Red Rocks was four young boys showing their potential. This was legends coming home to be with their own tribe.
After 2 years how many more times have you watched it? This is.... a special song for sure and a special performance, the bits from the DVD that this doesnt have are so touching.
I just had my 66th birthday. First heard this song over 40 years ago. I still can't sit still when I hear it! Thanks to U2 for the wonderful music over the years!
I wanna thank Thin Lizzy for letting U2 open up for them. I wanna thank Mr. Hewson, Mr. Evans, Mr. Clsyton, and Mr. Mullen for letting their boys realize this amazing dream of creating this beautiful band!
What I love about this video is that at 4:50 when the song kicks in, the entire crowd are going insane. Not just the people down the front, but all 80,000 of them! Insane scenes!
Binging on live U2 during lockdown makes me feel less alone. The atmosphere even after 20 years is so electric, I feel like I’m there with all the joyous people.
I saw these 4 BRILLIANT!!!!! musicians over 40 years ago and back then I knew this band would be one of the biggest bands of all time. I'm 65 now and I still love them. THE BEST!!!!!!
This is just so fucking great! I first saw U2 in 1983 here in L.A. on the WAR tour with the Alarm opening. I was 17 and it completely changed my life in such a powerful way! Watching this now brings tears to my eyes and I'm not ashamed to admit that all these years later. They're a very special band and they always will be.
I have this DVD , this DVD inspired me to go and see them play live at Edihad Stadium in Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺 The greatest sounding band in the world
That song e that performance bring tears to my eyes. Its about victory. Its about looking back and realize It all worthed. Im brazilian and i love U2. I love this concert. I love life ❤
The irony is that Bono is always in complete control of both the band and the crowd. I have loved this song ever since I first bought the album “Boy” way back in 1980. Such raw energy and charisma exploded out of the speakers…and they’ve still got it!
For a band that could barely play their instruments when they started they have made such an incredible journey. Amazing! Thank you for your music that touches our souls and hearts Long live U2!!!!
What a flawless performance; They're so comfortable with each other. I've definitely given them at least 500 pounds and I'll keep on giving for these guys; They're worth it!
First saw them in Phoenix Park, Dublin in '83... was really there for Big Country (who were amazing!!) .. U2 headlined and 'Out Of Control' was their opener...... The bass line, signalled an explosion of energy in the crowd..... unforgettable
Best gig ever . The boys rocked it that night , fucking mental , a few yrs later nme voted this gig in the top 10 of all time . I worked hard myself to afford the flight , ticket and it paid of for me.
Larry Mullen jr. one of my favourite drummers ever. So original and precise and he really digs it. Adam is awesome too. No beating round the bush, they hold the sound building for the edge spacey guitars and bono´s vocals.
I mean, the album version of this is no slouch IMHO. But yeah, quite a few of their songs are better live than in the studio versions. IE the "Wide Awake In America" version of "Bad" and the "U2360 at the Rose Bowl" version of "Ultraviolet (Light My Way)".
What a tune. What a gig. And don't forget Bono asking us to thank Jasan Mcateer for his goal against Holland, sending us to the World Cup in South Korea. Great times.
It's amazing how bono holds the band at 4:40. You can see he raises his hand and Adam and Edge keeps looking at it holding the note until he raises it down :)
Nothing to do with his hand. Its Larry.When he goes to four on the floor with his kick drum is when they come back in. Make no mistake. Larry is the conductor in this band😀
This was an incredible performance. Especially for Bono, you can hear his heartache while performing this dedication to his then ailing father. Bless Bono and his father. I like to think that is now resting in peace. "You can't fight fate" is the absolute truth, kind sir!
I love this video, man. Excellent performance. Especially at 4:43, when Bono tells Edge to hold and wait for the build up. It's like waiting for a cork to pop out of the champagne bottle. Perfect timing and musicianship. Well played!
Dude me too! I drawn a picture of Bono in this concert in 2007, as of that time this song I never heard till I bought this. Sicken coming from a die hard u2 fan. Makes me pissed off actually lol
One of the best songs by u2, ironically their first single, they have had some greats since but hard to meet the power from this. I play it to my son as it is so inspirational an Irish boy who has to make it in the big bad world
The Slane Castle concert was probably U2's peak live recorded performance. Hometown crowd. Awesome.
nah Red Rock's 1983. watch it
deffo red rocks @@coldacre

Say what you want about U2... This was one of the greatest concerts ever conceived
They aren't bad Live!
Lots of tickets sold over the years!
When he thanks his pa, that gets me every time. Knowing that he had just buried his father a few days before this show.
My god - perfection - the band, his voice and the fans absolutely in ecstasy… What a magical moment. This was a priceless concert to be at.
Good moment to be the best live band on the planet!?
Just about the best live version of anything ever.
Anthony Knox that is the best performance of ONE!
Bono is talking about needed Money and ask your father
Yeah, stirs something from way down and unexplainable -- even the original does but you're right, this one live is from some other dimension . . .
So true!!! Goosebumps!!!
Nailed it
This is the best live song ever played in whole history of rock. The energy of the band and the energy of the crowd is insane, just give me chills.
Brilliant, best version ever,must have watched this 100s of times
Agreed!
I’ve watched 1,000s of times
@@CMMSFP Ya ...well I watched it infinity times 🖕❤️
Hairs up on my neck and arms after my 1000th viewing
After 2 years how many more times have you watched it?
This is.... a special song for sure and a special performance, the bits from the DVD that this doesnt have are so touching.
I just had my 66th birthday. First heard this song over 40 years ago. I still can't sit still when I hear it! Thanks to U2 for the wonderful music over the years!
When Edge has his Explorer in his hands, he is unstoppable!!
Killer guitar solo!!!
Edge is simply God having fun with the guitar. Nothing more. Nothing Less. GOAT of guitarists.
Out of Control
Beautiful Day
I Will Follow
I wanna thank Thin Lizzy for letting U2 open up for them. I wanna thank Mr. Hewson, Mr. Evans, Mr. Clsyton, and Mr. Mullen for letting their boys realize this amazing dream of creating this beautiful band!
Not even there live and you feel the entire show still. Crazy. Goosebumps. Excitement. That's a rock show !!!!
What I love about this video is that at 4:50 when the song kicks in, the entire crowd are going insane. Not just the people down the front, but all 80,000 of them! Insane scenes!
Every breaking wave u2
2018 and still the greatest band in the world!!
That must've been at least 7.0 on the Richter scale!
I get goosebumps every time. It's mesmerizing.
@Garrett O'Rourke I chose the Ireland game instead. It was a tough call
And I want to thank the parents of U2 because without them, I would’ve not been able to enjoy such incredible music over the last few decades.
My God Larry's drums sound absolutely epic!
Larry is a living metronome! His drumming is incredible precise!
They were my favorite band 30 years ago. They're my favorite band today and they'll still be my 30 years from now, in the nursing home
The BEST BAND to ever walk the face of the earth
Binging on live U2 during lockdown makes me feel less alone. The atmosphere even after 20 years is so electric, I feel like I’m there with all the joyous people.
That’s how a crowd should look like! 😁
I saw these 4 BRILLIANT!!!!! musicians over 40 years ago and back then I knew this band would be one of the biggest bands of all time. I'm 65 now and I still love them. THE BEST!!!!!!
Larry smiles ♥️♥️♥️
Quite possibly the best live performance of a song that U2 has ever done. I dare you to find one better.
The best band at the best venue in front of the best fans in the world!!
Simply one of the best live version of U2 !
Guillaume Debart this was classic especially the performance of ONE!
Look at the version from red rocks 83 … blows this away
Bono (and the boys) buried his pop the day before this concert. The resulted in the most emotional and best concert ever by this band.
This is just so fucking great! I first saw U2 in 1983 here in L.A. on the WAR tour with the Alarm opening. I was 17 and it completely changed my life in such a powerful way!

Yeah cool i was there as well!Which year did you go to see them? 2006, 2010 or 2019?

I wanna thank Phillip Lynott for letting us open the Show. Lynott was well known for help irish artists on their way up.
That song e that performance bring tears to my eyes. Its about victory. Its about looking back and realize It all worthed. Im brazilian and i love U2. I love this concert. I love life ❤
AL ESCUCHAR ESTA MÚSICA CIERRO LOS OJOS Y DESAPAREZCO DEL LUGAR EN DONDE ESTOY ..IMAGINARIAMENTE ME VOY HASTA EL CONCIERTO DE U2 !!!
This why you can only love this band. Hate does not exist in their vocabulary.

Il n'y a pasà chier (pardon ..) mais même des années après, ça me mets toujours par terre .... Que c'est bon !!
Bono's voice, stage presence and charisma are why U2 became a great band.

El mejor concierto de u2
Still gives me the chills... when the song kicks in at 4:52..
That whole stadium is ROCKING to this !!
Best song of this concert.
Best song ever
La mejor banda de rock de toda la historia...grande bono .. desde Chile
Brilliant work. Now that's a Rock Star and his Band.
Nobody has phone, only x thousend fans, U2 and such a great atmosphere! I wanna live this age again!
This one is up there with the super bowl performance, bad from Live Aid, and streets from Rattle and Hum. Incredible.
This is one of those u2 songs that show that they are a live band. This is so much better than the album version!!
I mean, the album version of this is no slouch IMHO. But yeah, quite a few of their songs are better live than in the studio versions. IE the "Wide Awake In America" version of "Bad" and the "U2360 at the Rose Bowl" version of "Ultraviolet (Light My Way)".
Never get bored with the Boy album. Just a rockin album
Nice to see this during this COVID lockdown. Hope to see them again live one day.
This is as close as human beings can get to feeling like they are Gods... They crowd are in heaven .. this few minutes is like being in paradise
'This is out Tribe!!!!' love this part of the song. 500lbs well spent!
I have definitely given U2 500 pounds over my lifetime. Worth every penny.
Just simply the very very best aren't they, no one else comes close to them
agradeço a minha mãe que hoje é uma estrela no céu por ter me apresentado essa banda que amo muito U2 ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
So close to home ... grew up with U2 in my ears ..... very proud
Slane Castle, and Red Rocks ( Colorado, USA)...Once in a lifetime !!!
What a tune. What a gig. And don't forget Bono asking us to thank Jasan Mcateer for his goal against Holland, sending us to the World Cup in South Korea. Great times.
"This is Edge! I dunno where we got him!"
😄
:D :D :D
I think he says ‘another world we got him’ as he was the only one from London! 😏
It's amazing how bono holds the band at 4:40. You can see he raises his hand and Adam and Edge keeps looking at it holding the note until he raises it down :)
Yes!! That's the Magic Of Band full of Love!! :D
good one Lucas, hadn't noticed that before. The crowd at 4:56 amazing
Every great orchestra needs a conductor....LOL
Nothing to do with his hand. Its Larry.When he goes to four on the floor with his kick drum is when they come back in. Make no mistake. Larry is the conductor in this band😀
This concert should be released on a beautiful LP set.
I have it in VHS 😂
Giving the nod to Philo in the intro was a lovely move.
I Believe this is the most incredible performance of this song ever...
Perfect scenario!!!
I'm in Awe!!!
THE BEST SONG OF THIS BAND❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
By far the best live performance caught on DVD by the greatest ! Every U2 fan needs to have this one at home !
This was an incredible performance. Especially for Bono, you can hear his heartache while performing this dedication to his then ailing father. Bless Bono and his father. I like to think that is now resting in peace. "You can't fight fate" is the absolute truth, kind sir!
What a gig at slane !
Totally out of control .. !!
Best live rock n roll band EVER .
I love this video, man. Excellent performance. Especially at 4:43, when Bono tells Edge to hold and wait for the build up. It's like waiting for a cork to pop out of the champagne bottle. Perfect timing and musicianship. Well played!
My favorite U2 song of all time!!!
Adam and edges tone omg so good and Larry's good timing holds em all together Bono sounds great ..these guys are just so good together ❤
In 10 day I'll be 19 years old, and all my 18's was inspired thanks to this song, I love it.
I played this live to my school...it has changed my life...thanks U2... They've been there since I've been born.... In 2002
A M A Z I N G.....this is why....they are simply....THE NUMBER ONE IN THE WORLD!
Still bloody BRILLIANT !!
