Agreed. To me, perhaps the most impressive parts of it is they did it without any of the breakups, departures, death, scandal, destruction, devastation, etc. that typically comes along with bands/artists in music. That all says a lot about the type of human beings they are.
Great reportage. I love how this band keeps coming back, again and again. They are exceptional. Look at this new tour. It's blowing your mind again. There is no other band in the world doing this, never have been, never will be. I am blessed to be able to witness this gift from God.
My admiration for U2 stopped the moment they enlisted themselves as a "Dutch" band to avoid the Irish taxes. He can talk as much as he wants about the unfairness of the world, but it sounds bitter and hypocrytical when you deny your own country the benifits of your work.
Dorientje Woller The Irish government didn’t take tax off artists. U2 were by then earning hundreds of millions of dollars. Not many people wouldn’t have used (and still use) loopholes like this. Racing drivers who live in Monaco for example
When I was a teenager on a cold winter night doing my homework and listening to New Year’s Day on low volume, tapping the eraser of my pencil to the beat, I predicted U2 would be massively successful as a rock group. I just knew they were special.
So glad you had the song of your Mother released. More men need to know the value a mother has. No need to have felt embarrassed. That was a lovely thing to do.xx
Phenomenal show. Loved it so much I saw it twice! Extraordinary band. They haven't and will never grow old. They have been the soundtrack to my life since the start. Keep it up, Boys! I Will Follow!
Me too! Saw this show at MSG in NYC and fell in love all over again. Fell in love with U2 in the early 80's and they have been soundtrack to my life too! Listening to U2 is always like going home ...
This concert was magnificent to say the very least. I have followed this band since 1979 my senior year in HS. Boston was one of the first radio stations that gave them a break. I'm so glad they did. It's like a religious experience with the music and lyrics. I really think they are God's band, delivering the message of hope faith and love. Great interview. Nancy, Boston, MA
These guys are the standard for egoless personalities who truly believe in their friendship over 40 years. I've always been a fan of them God bless u2 and kept them grounded
I like U2, they also seem like a decent bunch of blokes, however they wouldn't be my no 1 band. Having said that though, the concert I saw at Mt Smart Auckland around 2006 was and still is the best show I have ever seen.
I think the 1st time I've heart The Edge speaking voice. Nice. I like the pseudo-falsetto, delay in following Bono's line. I also like the desert rose hidden in our desert. A scary place. Photos of you keeping close because of the rumors is good.
U2 meilleur groupe au monde... Qu ils durent toujours. Je les adore et je les suis depuis tellement longtemps 😍😍😍bonne musique, personnages humbles et engagés, magnifique. Il y a toujours le son de U2 à la maison
Paul Mortimer Mike Patton of Faith No More does better. His vocal range is 6 octaves. One of your U2 fans on youtube tried to make fun of Faith No More fans. Unbeknownst to that person, Mike Patton is a far better singer. There's no comparison.
This band has guided me through life, the highs, the lows, I'm now 52 & their music still brings lots of tears of happiness & joy! ❤🙏 ...... I never knew the story behind Bono's mum Iris, much the same sadness as that of Larry's Mum which is evenmore tragic as he lost his mother & sibling in a car crash, how awful, now that brings alot of tears ...... Poor poor man & I very much love Larry the most, he's such an inspiration for me & the main reason I started playing drums!! Having watched the Sphere chapter in You Tube wishing I could have been there, sadly without Larry but still high level talent! I hope these guys go on for as long as they can, if the Rolling Stones can do it why not Adam Larry Bono & Edge ..... Larry seems to get better with age anyway as do thet all, accept Larry is suffering with parts falling off as he suggests due to a lifetime of banging a drum but I pray for maybe another couple if decades atleast because the producing & live deliverance of music is of such high quality & going to a U2 gig is just life changing, I know this from a few times over 🙏❤️....... God bless you U2 ❤
I don't understand the hatred from some towards these guys, I've only seen them once during their 360 tour, and let me tell you all it was AMAZING, I can't wait to see them again 😤
I felt I+E was their best tour in years... I thought they could be bothered again after what I perceived to be the lacklustre Vertigo and 360 tours. Can't wait for the experience part. :-)
i hope that they the first 15 years don't stop with making music . i'm 55 years old , ans fan off the beginning. when i came back from the war in Lebanon , i get depressed. U2 , Helpt me out off it . U2! Greatest band off two centuries, Thx boy's, for what you ment to me , and many other people. Godloves U2, And you too.
Bono should never be embarrassed for writing and singing Iris. A beautiful song for his mother just like Tomorrow was for Iris too, and Kite and Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own for Bob. I'd love to put those feelings into words like that.
Marios U2 has maybe five really good songs. They haven't had a decent song in ten years. In some ways Green Day is a better group. Don't even use the word Beatles and U2 in the same sentence. It's like saying Andy Warhol and Da Vinca in the same sentence.
+searchlight18 There is no comparing ANYONE to the Beatles.But after that,U2 are as good as any band out there with a songbook and legacy that can match anyone's. Green Day are all well and good for 13 year old kids.
@Blackporsche roadster Exactly. They've got entire albums packed with monster songs. I'm not even thinking Of Joshua Tree! I think its awesome but its not in my top 3 from them
This was very well produced. Great down to Earth interview that really captured the essence of the band. Really looking forward to the New 2017 Joshua Tree 30th Anniversary Tour. Sometimes you have to go back - and make it all up again.
So long as I am alive U2 will be THE ONE. , im not sorry, the band is not a circus. I will write what I and my family experienced in NI and Free State. This band is the the best in the world. and simple minds comes next. I will devote the rest of the time of my life to them, no one can match them. Our birthday is the same, my brother looks like him, and He and They have inspired me and helped meself and my family cope with what has occurred. Of course I admire many others and since I do not have much time left on this earth, for better or worse, I devote the rest of my life to their honesty, talent, love, and hopefully what I write for them and all committed to their outstanding, no only performance, yet the conveyance of what is sung, written and safely conveyed to the world. I KNOW BONO CAN PLAY AGAN> My mum had same trouble and he will recover, He needs ta right docs. IF not His voice, his writing, his lyric will live on. And every single fan in the world will support them. Keep on, brother, for you are a twin of my brother. Its ethereal. . I love Shebeen I love the Aussies and whilst U2 is my opinion the best, many other are as well, especially those who hae played and supported them in the past. Kindly keep doing so. God Bless all and always remembers only God knows all and hearts, With kind words, with prayer, with U2 and many other bands conveying thus our country will be FREE..Thank you for evermore this talent given to you by the almighty and using it for the best of all people. And I shall not mention the others who do the same here, you know who you are.
Eu ainda não tenho uma definição a respeito dessa banda. Só sei que vou aproveitar encanto estou aqui. Não vou apostar em uma nova oportunidade em outras vida.👍
PLEASE INCLUDES CLASSIS SONGS LIKE KITE, ONE, BAD, STAY, UNFORGETABLE FIRE, RUNNING TO STAND STILL, ULTRVIOLET, LEMON, NEW YEAR DAY, MISS SAREJEVO, WALK ON, ETC. MANY FANS IN SINGAPORE 2017

There is no other band in the world doing this, never have been, never will be.
I am blessed to be able to witness this gift from God.
Amen bro
Well said! 🙏💜💜💜💜
I hate that so many people hate Bono. He’s the best frontman in the world.
My life has been so much better just because U2 have always been there.
Me too. Just ignore the haters. F
May be there is a reason
And you guys are ignorant
Bono is great, but Michael Hutchence God bless his soul was greatest...

So glad you had the song of your Mother released. More men need to know the value a mother has. No need to have felt embarrassed. That was a lovely thing to do.xx
IRIS is one of the best U2 tracks ever !!!
Its unlistenable
40 years strong and still the best band in the world.
They suck so bad
@@ihazshort8093 I enjoyed it
@@ihazshort8093 Bono can't sing, they haven't written a good song in 20 years. It's pathetic
@@hosoiarchives4858 , and you swallow
Phenomenal show. Loved it so much I saw it twice! Extraordinary band. They haven't and will never grow old. They have been the soundtrack to my life since the start. Keep it up, Boys! I Will Follow!
Todd Payne amazing words there - same as me to the letter. U2 sounds track to my life also
@Todd Payne. Could NOT have said that any better. They are the real thing, and perhaps (?) , they have been the soundtrack of all our lives.
Me too! Saw this show at MSG in NYC and fell in love all over again. Fell in love with U2 in the early 80's and they have been soundtrack to my life too! Listening to U2 is always like going home ...
Todd Payne what type of band is u2
Todd Payne nice pun.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE these guys!!!!
Saw this show at the Madison Square Garden...amazing as always!!!
So did I!
Love those men , such a significant part, 42 years long , in the soundtrack of my life they to this day play.
This concert was magnificent to say the very least. I have followed this band since 1979 my senior year in HS. Boston was one of the first radio stations that gave them a break. I'm so glad they did.

This guys knows how to tour. The really are the biggest band on earth.
villegas24
Actually no, it’s Queen.
HG Elite
Don’t read Rolling Stone.It’s rubbish.
I love this extraordinary band...
Best band on this world ♥
God bless U2!!!!
These guys are the standard for egoless personalities who truly believe in their friendship over 40 years. I've always been a fan of them God bless u2 and kept them grounded

True!!!!
NAH-STONES ARE. JUST LOOK AT THEIR SEPT/OCT EURO TOUR DATES. TICKETS SOLD OUT IN 2 WEEKS
dave lastman 2 weeks... U2 sells some concerts out in minutes.
mmaxsters the mode is Superior
guinness record holders
That was very interesting, I got to see them in Chicago on June 24, 2015 and I saw them again in Miami on June 11, 2017. LOVE YOU U2!!!!!
Songs come from the heart, like yours! Always!
I love this band and all their humour 😎
U2 puts on a show! Every other band just plays on stage. They actually played in the crowd this show.
So do Depeche Mode..I love both xx
Love this vidio of U2...
I like U2, they also seem like a decent bunch of blokes, however they wouldn't be my no 1 band. Having said that though, the concert I saw at Mt Smart Auckland around 2006 was and still is the best show I have ever seen.
I magically literally got their album "Songs of Innocence" into my iPod etc and I don't know how but I kind of like it
brilliant reportage all is wonderful!!
Been a fan from been 14 iam 54 now best band ever
Love u2.Your all Amazing..Bono is Stunning Much Love from The U.S.🇺🇸❤😉✌🙏🎶🎵🎼
Awesome Interview!
A very candid Bono discussing cosmic synchronicities.
I think the 1st time I've heart The Edge speaking voice. Nice. I like the pseudo-falsetto, delay in following Bono's line. I also like the desert rose hidden in our desert. A scary place. Photos of you keeping close because of the rumors is good.
All aged really well
Good bunch guys
Adored early U2
U2 meilleur groupe au monde... Qu ils durent toujours. Je les adore et je les suis depuis tellement longtemps 😍😍😍bonne musique, personnages humbles et engagés, magnifique. Il y a toujours le son de U2 à la maison
Legends
the voice is as powerful as ever.
Welcome back U2
Paul Mortimer A voice with a vocal range of 3 octaves. Unimpressive.
so of course you could do better
30 plus years and counting cant be wrong
Paul Mortimer Mike Patton of Faith No More does better. His vocal range is 6 octaves.
One of your U2 fans on youtube tried to make fun of Faith No More fans. Unbeknownst to that person, Mike Patton is a far better singer. There's no comparison.
yep cos thats what makes a star how many octaves he or she has.each to there own

The RUclips algorithm has failed us when this video is randomly suggested to us half a dozen years later.

Love u2 saw then in dublin best night of my life

I don't like Bonos politics.
But U2 is awesome...
I felt I+E was their best tour in years... I thought they could be bothered again after what I perceived to be the lacklustre Vertigo and 360 tours. Can't wait for the experience part. :-)
I disagree, I thought the other Tours were great. Each to their own though.
yup, definitely
William Sauer PopMart was awesome, also.
I loved Popmart, what a spectacle
i hope that they the first 15 years don't stop with making music .
i'm 55 years old , ans fan off the beginning.
when i came back from the war in Lebanon , i get depressed.
U2 , Helpt me out off it .
U2! Greatest band off two centuries,
Thx boy's, for what you ment to me , and many other people.
Godloves U2, And you too.

I really like this great band.
I've never been surprised by their success
I LOVE BONO AND I LOVE U2.
I SAW THEM FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 1985 TWICE,IT IS STILL ONE OF THE BEST SHOWS I HAVE EVER SEEN.
This was very well produced. Great down to Earth interview that really captured the essence of the band. Really looking forward to the New 2017 Joshua Tree 30th Anniversary Tour. Sometimes you have to go back - and make it all up again.
The Sonic Soundscapes this band create are still insanely fantastic. Other worldly still
Edge is the hottest one out of all of them.
I just love u, u are the best
A melhor banda de rock de todos os tempos. U2 ❤
GREATEST BAND EVER
Thompson Twins hold the record for shortest tour in history. They broke up after opening night in Dublin.

(below) I thought the dude below me wrote IRS is one of their greatest songs! 😂 LoL!
Quando virão no Brasil novamente????
Thank you for honouring your mother :)
That part where the interviewer says "These antique amps" uh..what? Those look like brand new Voxes to me...
Sie sind zu recht die beste Rockband auf dem Planeten, da sie sich immer wieder neu erfinden...
There is a scene that needs to be taken out of this video.
I like ...
"there's something in the jeopardy" what does that mean??
Hi U2 my friends dad was your tour manager earlier he passed away I was wondering please say like a rip video it would mean a lot
The band did a tribute to him on that day during the end of a show. I was there.
