Man. The Edge wailing on his guitar (4:28-5:00). After all these years it still sends jolts of electricity down my spine. Love the live versions of this song the best. The Sydney performance is my favorite.
the bright on people's eyes is AMAZING When I saw them live, I went 2 times in a row (saturday and sunday), was totally tired, no makeup, no hair done, sweaty, but from all my pics, I think I look beautiful the most. U2 FOR LIFE
I love this version of the song as it shows everyone in the band doing their part to make a greater voice. The Edge's guitar playing with the slide was almost magical as it echoed recurring parts.
I have been to many u2 shows and have been blessed to have had a moment with Bono and thats Tops!!But to have met Bono and his Daughter is something i will hold close..Family values and hopes to all...Blessings..Cbono..
They are!!!! I have seen them twice and listen to them most days. So good!!!! I can't believe some people are either impartial to them or don't like them
Go Bono, Go Evie!!!!! This is soooo adorable and set to one of my three all-time favorite U2 songs!!!! I'm almost certain that that is Ali, (Bono's wife/Eve's mum) at 4:36 smiling so beautifully!
ztcdna .. dude THE TRUE MUSIC LOVERS will never be change U2 for me for us will always be the BEST !!! THE PERFECT BAND EVER!! more years to u2 and all of us.. IM 37 too the names Rain Philippines..
My oh my, imagine growing up having U2 for a family. The beautiful music you'd make all together, at Christmas, especially with Bob and Garvin back in the day. It'd be like the weirdest, and best, little choir.
this is the most beautiful live version I heard. And I totally agree with the statement that it's one of the many most brilliant riff's of The Edge! :)
This performance will always be pertinent. At the same time, it is an age-old cry in battle that reaches seamlessly into the time the castle was first built. This song is loaded in implication and power for each person who could experience, hear and watch it. I hear him sing about dropping pretense as he drops his own pretense in the moment. The energy in his voice I feel as the same that religious figures point to in generating devotion. He sings for a crowd of people from different religions, races, cultures, countries. He sings about raising one’s head from the basement and dirt - from jealousy, from the complex forms of hurt that we pull away from in our most-intimate relationships and then reflect out onto each interaction from the minor globe of our household to each relationship we have any freedom in (to literally bomb, to criticize, to blame). He does not sing about a version of the world’s issues he heard passed down through monotonous lectures by politicians or priests. He does not sing through various ounces of words and ideas they don’t and he doesn’t personally believe and feel vitality in, words and ideas about the blood of a man or a leader that doesn’t instill a beating of his own heart or a sweet shortness of breath. He sings about his daughter, Eve, and in the moment it is only her and his desire to lift her up, hold her and closely hug her. The happiness is paramount, utterly personal, shared with and touches everyone who is near. It is a war cry for humanity. -J.R.
They're very different, but they're both transcendent! Incredible sets of artists on both sides, just different styles and perspectives. I think it's apples to oranges, but not because one is definitely superior to the other, just because they don't appeal to the same audience.
Realmente Bono é um cara legal! A naturalidade da relaçao familiar c/ Eve no palco é contagiante, sem ser piegas. Alem de tudo, canta, ou melhor, interpreta (do fundo da alma) as musicas da maior banda do mundo!! Que bom! VIVA Bono e VIVA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!U2
hey lisamarie, thanks for telling me about that!! I love the way he is with his girls...I have always hoped that "rock stars" would also find the courage to be good fathers and husbands and I have a sneaking suspicion that he is!!! GO BONO!
@Guigley Indeed, Guigley, I never really liked this song until I heard it live in Boston in the late 90s. After I saw it live, it became my favorite U2 song.
True. And not just good, but distinctive. There are plenty of great guitar players but so many of them sound the same to me. Also, he seems very humble.
Unbelievable that this video is up over six years and has yet to pass one million views. What is wrong with the people on youtube. This should have surpassed one hundred million views by now :D
Hermoso video! La actuacion de la hija de Bono, Eve, estubo buenisima. Al parecer le viene la rama artistica por el lado paterno. Como es bien sabido ya participo en una pelicula, "The 27 Club". Ojala y le vaya bien, y que no se pierda en ese mundo, como les ha sucedido a otras. Seria muy triste.....
Apparently an envelope filter. Altho not too sure if a chorus is going on as well. And of course the delay at the end (during the slide solo). And if you have a 330-12 Rickenbacker in FireGlo, it helps! : )
In graceful respect, the Slane Concert is without a doubt the best performance, the Zoo TV gig is excellent but I prefer this but everyone is entitled to their opinion...
I rated sixstringsglory because i'm guitar player too and Edge is my master. I love the solo et the pre-ending line. It's simple, but very strong and suitable for this song. I thing he founded this solo long after realising single.
I love how the beggining is going back to the Zoo TV days :P I remember before I knew it was his daughter (possibly 2 years ago) I thought it was a random stranger :P
trexmegatron1,The Strong auto-wah like effect edge uses in this song comes from a multieffects unit called the Korg A3,however you will only be able to access the sound if you have the SPC-01 card and then cycle through to preset 76 known as 'funkwah',you will need to tweek it a little to get the same sound like edge.The korg a3 is no longer made,but you can sometimes get them off ebay.The zoom g2.1u effects peda,Ive heard has an extremely similar sound! .Hope that helps!
Wrong on the song was inspired by a belly dancer on tour. The tour happened after the record was made. There was a belly dancer in the video filmed in Morocco for the single. Indeed, the SECOND dancer on the ZOO TV tour, Morleigh, married Edge.
They have a fantastic musical understanding of each other... Simply astonishing
Man. The Edge wailing on his guitar (4:28-5:00). After all these years it still sends jolts of electricity down my spine. Love the live versions of this song the best. The Sydney performance is my favorite.
The basslines are fantastic. Great work by Adam Clayton
the bright on people's eyes is AMAZING

U2 FOR LIFE
Total dedication to making the most inspiring sound and show, these guys are true and a gift from God. They are a wind of ever-moving creativity.
I love this version of the song as it shows everyone in the band doing their part to make a greater voice. The Edge's guitar playing with the slide was almost magical as it echoed recurring parts.
The Edge's slide-guitar playing is absolutely brilliant. Love it. Going to see U2 in August!
I have been to many u2 shows and have been blessed to have had a moment with Bono and thats Tops!!But to have met Bono and his Daughter is something i will hold close..Family values and hopes to all...Blessings..Cbono..

Every song that U2 performs live is spectacular!
Yes. It's sheer brilliance.
ztcdna .. dude THE TRUE MUSIC LOVERS will never be change U2 for me for us will always be the BEST !!! THE PERFECT BAND EVER!! more years to u2 and all of us.. IM 37 too the names Rain Philippines..
The Edge has got to be one of the all-time best... he's amazing
Brillient! What a group and how special is it to have Eve on stage with dad. Unbelievable.
This must be an awesome song to hear live. If it were me, I'd go nuts.
My oh my, imagine growing up having U2 for a family. The beautiful music you'd make all together, at Christmas, especially with Bob and Garvin back in the day. It'd be like the weirdest, and best, little choir.
This is one of my favorite performances of this song. It's just so sweet to her Eve and her daddy. He looks like he is so proud of her.
this is the most beautiful live version I heard. And I totally agree with the statement that it's one of the many most brilliant riff's of The Edge! :)
I love these guys ... the band U2 and Dog Savanna are the bands that I like to hear! Viva Rock!
These Guys are the best!!!!!!!!! No band even comes close or compares to U2!!!!!
Amazing clarity on Edge's guitar sounds on this one.
WOW!!TRULY ONE OF THE BEST BAND EVER
u2 is the best group in the world hello from croatia zagreb
im in a trance just watching it on youtube ..cant imagine how the people watching it live must have felt
this really great live version, a U2 at the top of his game.
Bono thank you very much for these few steps from dance in the company of Eve.
Bono has a beautiful daughter. :) I love this version. Go U2!
U2= AWESOME. Love this song.
Best ever version of this song, from a legendary U2 show......
God, that guitar is fantastic! Edge, I think the spirit of Jimmy Hendrix is watching over you now! Awesome!!!!
great song, the edge one of the greatest guitar player ever.
David Gilmour and the edge, unique sound
Give it up for little Eve!
Her dad is Bono.
She gets to dance on stage with him.
How great is that?
Beautiful.

Awesome version---missed hearing it in Chicago----the rest was fantastic!
They did! I saw them in NJ on 9/24 and it was one of the best live versions of Mysterious Ways I've ever heard. :)
fantastic performance of U2 with Eve
she's so lucky to have her dad, lost mine in november, it would have been his birthday today...love this video
The Edge is unbelievable here. The entire song, from the very beginning.
Edge's guitar riff & solo is so great!!!!
Omg, Eve was so young!!! And so cute dancing... XD
Just like her dad =)
Ohh and I love this song.
They're very different, but they're both transcendent! Incredible sets of artists on both sides, just different styles and perspectives. I think it's apples to oranges, but not because one is definitely superior to the other, just because they don't appeal to the same audience.
Sweet Evie! Absolutely great!!!
I like this.
wish I could see U2 in concert.
What a beautiful girl she was and she's grown into a lovely young woman.
Wounderfull song, wow. Eve you are excellent, you look like bono.
I think everyone will agree that this concert at Slane Castle was the best concert ever by U2.
LOVE IT. awesome live vid..im in love haha..& bono's lil girl too cute.
This song makes me so happy.
best version on mysterious ways ever teh edge is the best guitar player of history
does anybody else think that the edge's guitar riff at 4:03 is one of his best and most brilliant ones
one of the amazing songs of u2 alawys give the best
I love this band and her music
I crank this up right before Edge's slide solo. The Best!
Realmente Bono é um cara legal! A naturalidade da relaçao familiar c/ Eve no palco é contagiante, sem ser piegas. Alem de tudo, canta, ou melhor, interpreta (do fundo da alma) as musicas da maior banda do mundo!! Que bom! VIVA Bono e VIVA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!U2
woaaaaaaaaaah!!!
I was there too They were awesome!!!
my fav u2 song now and forever
Very sweet indeed for Bono to do that!
hey lisamarie, thanks for telling me about that!! I love the way he is with his girls...I have always hoped that "rock stars" would also find the courage to be good fathers and husbands and I have a sneaking suspicion that he is!!! GO BONO!
cant wait to see them again in Arizona!!!
It sounds like Edge could go on for ever. and I wouldn't mind.
U2 my favorite band forever
wonderful video - great to see a bit of the B-man with his family. :)
my favourite version of this song.
i loved the opening that they used for it 4:30 and on is the edge's awwsome solo! Yeeeah!
@Guigley
Indeed, Guigley, I never really liked this song until I heard it live in Boston in the late 90s. After I saw it live, it became my favorite U2 song.
I mean, could you IMAGINE being Bono's daughter???? How cool would that be?? WOW!!!
Irish Pride....the biggest draw in the World by this quality band from Ireland!
Buen recuerdo de Eve, hoy ya grande y graduada. Nos queda este recuerdo como tantos otros.
True. And not just good, but distinctive. There are plenty of great guitar players but so many of them sound the same to me. Also, he seems very humble.
this is so precious!!
Going to see U2 in Chicago!

OMG! That was soo sweet of Bono to get his daughter to dance to this song, she is soo cute, but Jordan looks far more like Bono
"Give it up for Eve"

Yes and she has been in a flim called "27 Club".

Brilliant Edge's playing !!!
Give it up for little Eve :) Great vid!
Top demaiss thank you U2
@Dawgmandede I thought it was a bonus selection on the "Go Home/Slane Castle DVD?" (It is on my copy anyhow...?
You should see the video of her now! She's all grown up! (Check out Party Girl video from the 360 tour, I think).
