The instumental for this was just one take. Brian Eno was trying to fix a track that wasn't playing properly. Larry Mullin came into the studio and not knowing there was a problem with the track, started playing the drums along with what he was hearing. The Edge came in and joined in. Adam Clayton joined in, and the Brian Eno started playing the keyboard. They all just seemed to synchronise. All knowing where to change cords, beat, up or down. Then Bono joined them and stated singing chords. Everyone then just followed Bono's changing pitches. Brian Eno described this as the most incredible experience he has ever had in music. Afterwards Bono said that normally they try to find the music but this time the music found them as it happened so effortlessly and organically.
This song deserves more credit than it's been given. I rate this as one of U2's top 3 ballads behind One and With Or Without You. Bono's passion in his voice brings up so many emotions for me.
I'm sorry for your loss, it is a very powerful experience to live through, I lost my little brother in 2015 to cirrhosis, he and me came a long way since childhood, we loved each other so much, when you lose someone that close the world is not the same anymore, we used to listen to many bands until late at night, U2 was our favorite band, along with The Beatles.

"Moment Of Surrender" I tied myself with wire To let the horses run free Playing with the fire until the fire played with me The stone was semi-precious We were barely conscious Two souls too smart to be in the realm of certainty Even on our wedding day We set ourselves on fire Oh God, do not deny her It's not if I believe in love But if love believes in me Oh, believe in me At the moment of surrender I folded to my knees I did not notice the passers-by And they did not notice me I've been in every black hole At the altar of the dark star My body's now a begging bowl That's begging to get back, begging to get back To my heart To the rhythm of my soul To the rhythm of my unconsciousness To the rhythm that yearns To be released from control I was punching in the numbers At the ATM machine I could see in the reflection A face staring back at me At the moment of surrender Of vision over visibility I did not notice the passers-by And they did not notice me I was speeding on the subway Through the stations of the cross Every eye looking every other way Counting down till the pain would stop At the moment of surrender Of vision over visibility I did not notice the passers-by And they did not notice me U2, No Line on the Horizon (2009)
Cada vez que veo una nueva versión de este tema siento que refleja toda mi vida y noto como si me estuviera hablando a mi directamente. Ya hace meses que llegué al fondo de un pozo que no creía que existiera y ahora comprendo el significado de la frase que en otra versión dice: el infierno es un sitio donde no necesitarás la ayuda de nadie más
Lars Ulrich (cofounder and drummer of Metallica) listed it at #1 song when asked by Rolling Stone to rank his top 20 songs of the 00s. Turns out he’s actually a self labeled “U2 groupie”. Never in a million years would I have guessed any of that. As an aside, I think U2 made a mistake by not making it the lead single of the album. I get why they wouldn’t. It’s long. But if anyone could get away with it because of the quality of the work, it would be them. Had that been the lead single, there’s no doubt in my mind it would’ve altered the trajectory of the album and subsequent albums. In my opinion it was probably the best song they wrote since Ultraviolet(Light My Way).
Aren’t we all we all dream of building castles in the sky perhaps some for a fading moment achieve the impossible. We will always need a fountain of inspiration to the Eart and dirt sorround us. But in the coming moments we will be left fragile, it is both the wonder and grief of being alive. For a moment we escaped the gravity of being human, we were great, but indeed we all fall back to Earth where hopefully nurture will catch, foster us back. So we may forever lean on each other.
That's what I'm going through..but I here different ppl. Some good n bad.. but mostly Good.. I haven't heard this song in a while. Till now..😍 I remember now.. again...
Beautiful song. There is a fab version by Nick Mulvey. Which one you prefer is neither here nor there, but you can spot a masterpiece as soon as a great artist does a cover of another great artists work.😉
Is any one see bono father . ariola. I whent to nj. Joshua tree concert and it whas magnificent. My kids ask me if a bring somthing from the concert. And i did .the bracelet. And the open mind. That the 🌎 world should have . best group ever. In the 🌎 world. I get chillings only to remember the concert . and watch 4 wonderfully. Guys . figthing. For saving the planet
A spiritual battle in which I will surrender to Jesus , which will bring the spiritual powers into line. Great Yarmouth. You should know the rest by now. ♥️💖. Two Hearts beat as One.
in the 80s they just wrote about drug addiction whereas here they have to explain what the song's about. And then just in case it wasn't clear enough a video that explains all of the above
This song has good and bad memorie's 4 me, if i have any anymore, explain in a bit. Estranged from fam, few yrs bk, got on, whatever, then Hos due to wrong medz. Then too much, got fnd, heard bout my dad passing, got well, then. Was given zopiclone, mnt to b sleep pill, but with my medz, could leave u suicidal, did 3mnt xtra hos. Home couldn't get e.c.t due to fnd, medz not working, since dec, now may, home 2mnt. Started suicidal note's to fam, then stopped medz. Wrote note's every wknd for 4 month's. Tried to get bk to hos, excuse's, no bedz, prob not, but for 3mnt, a n e, dec, put bk on min medz even though sui, but police nxt day when, even ftr, talk on mob to crisis team, brkn my kitchen window open, nice, not. Spoke to dr, jan, mnt 2b face to face but wasn't, left in air min drugz, but could put up fast to gv me fnd in past, what a fckn bitch, zopiclone shit and all. Anyway's, me that don't go out much, to finally c face to face ftr a year. Well, sui left, no rehab she better give. Then gt home well, exploit her to hell, move somewhere else. All very scary. So mom of sur, when ill, b4 dad, saw me through after this song out, saw hampden. Well until fam estrangment, hos19/20 well, saw bro, dropped stuff on ground, pal helped, mom sur, going through head. What should have been, 21 hos few mnt, then 22, few mnt, and now, prob 23, few mnt, but home well this time. Moment of surrender, u can't go bk, u can't stay like this, u don't deserve to go down suicide, u can't go forward from the house, so get some rehab, she can't say no, ftr everything, i'm hoping. Noticed i didn't say i, but i am not me, at the moment, hope this time shall pass, bn a whoara year, exactly since i left yesterday, fckn a year of hell. Anywayz, noo 4wkz on sunday, since all this shit began. My mother being nasty , telling a lie, being jealous of me going to a manic's concert that i dnt even go too. Yeah week ftr my 43rd birthday, so 48 mnt to be 3wk thursday. Not myself at all, heard about my dad passing, when in hos 21, ok when well dealing with it but home not well, horrible. So Anywhoo U2, still love u, bn upsetting, new stuff coming out, not bn me, still, love my boy'z. Got joshua necklace, when well b4 due to leave, nursre saiid was nice, then zop shit. Wore once in house, mb gt to wear again. Achtung y'all, mb can come bk jack, fine with the wine, e noo, but. Oh surely due a break, for goodness sake. God bless all who read this, i hope there is hope, angel of harlem, Tara-Johan McAlpine, kilmory, Lochgilhead, argyll, scotland.
Didn't make face to face yesyerday, too get call nxt week, better get rehab. Send letter to fam, that's if bro not read yon, get well, exploit dr b to hell. Not even one foot out the wood's yet, but, deseve to be myself again, as much as what i can be after this. I believe in god, why this have to happen after family shit. Was going to go back to caring, now i can barely care for myself, anyway, it is what it is, mb gt bk to caring, whatever. Boy's, i can't surrender to what she has done, there has to be some justice, been living like a murderer, or rapist, rape victim, survivor i was, anyway. So she mb dnt gt to do this to otherz, the white south african dr b, whatever, jst nd to bite my tongue nxt wk, gt in, she cnt say no, she know's she's done wrong. No from her, go to a higher authority, either way, ndz to b exploited, for ruining, someone's past, present, and well, do i have a future ftr this, i deserve one.

A minha escolha melhores baladas do u2, One With without you, Moment Surrender!
Praise jesus you did not say, underrated
Love Rescue Me or All I Want Is You

Among U2 songs I considered this one of the top.❤❤❤
I’ve been a U2 fan since 1981 and omg
Songs of Surrender is worldwide number 1 Album, 45 years after their debut they are still ahead of the top Album Charts even in the USA!!!!
We all reach a point in our lives where we desperately need to surrender.
I love U2! ❤
We only surrender when we die❤
One of the best songs by U2, for music, lyrics, voice, guitar
The best way to fight a battle we cannot win is to surrender
Ufff
Once again
That moment of surrender in my life
The best band ever 😍
so much feeling in this song. one of my favorites!
I folded to my knees.... The beginning of wisdom.
Masterpiece
it give me chills the realization that i listened this song 10 years ago
What a beautiful and amazing story and song 👍🙏💯☘️☘️
What a tune man
There is not words to say that inspiring this song; is a mix of the many feelings, moments, remembrances; this is invaluable masterpiece
Very underrated song!
How much nights of love I lived in these Cadiz old town streets!
Wunderschöner Song, one of my favourits from U2. Fantastic 👍🙏
Beautiful
music in its peak
"Moment Of Surrender"
I tied myself with wire
To let the horses run free
Playing with the fire until the fire played with me
The stone was semi-precious
We were barely conscious
Two souls too smart to be in the realm of certainty
Even on our wedding day
We set ourselves on fire
Oh God, do not deny her
It's not if I believe in love
But if love believes in me
Oh, believe in me
At the moment of surrender
I folded to my knees
I did not notice the passers-by
And they did not notice me
I've been in every black hole
At the altar of the dark star
My body's now a begging bowl
That's begging to get back,
begging to get back
To my heart
To the rhythm of my soul
To the rhythm of my unconsciousness
To the rhythm that yearns
To be released from control
I was punching in the numbers
At the ATM machine
I could see in the reflection
A face staring back at me
At the moment of surrender
Of vision over visibility
I did not notice the passers-by
And they did not notice me
I was speeding on the subway
Through the stations of the cross
Every eye looking every other way
Counting down till the pain would stop
At the moment of surrender
Of vision over visibility
I did not notice the passers-by
And they did not notice me
U2, No Line on the Horizon (2009)
Man they made great songs love this 🔥✊
Me estoy ahogando en mi tristeza, una magnífica canción que nunca ha Sido más oportuna que en este miserable momento de mi vida

This is a masterpiece ..
This made me cry. I need a moment of surrender.
msglimmertwin52 There's a time everyone does it, you just got tired of being so empty and lack of empathy nor emotions. Blessings.

GREAT SONG...!!!

Me pasa lo mismo!
Magnificent.
No, Moment of Surrender.
Excellent.
Edge solo always brings good feeling....
so stong masterpiece
Amazing
That guitar solo should have been at least 1½ minutes!!! That would definitely complete the song on a whole other level!!!
Excellent

They have no name.

Grammatical mistake... 'machine' was not necessary after ATM.
It's called artistic licence. The line would have ended too abruptly and not sounded right had he not added machine at the end.
