It was a cold and wet December day When we touched the ground at JFK Snow was melting on the ground On BLS I heard the sound Of an angel New York, like a Christmas tree Tonight this city belongs to me Angel Soul love, this love won't let me go So long, angel of Harlem Birdland on fifty-three The street sounds like a symphony We got John Coltrane and a love supreme Miles, and she's got to be an angel Lady Day got diamond eyes She sees the truth behind the lies Angel Soul love, this love won't let me go So long, angel of Harlem Angel of Harlem She says it's heart, heart and soul Yeah, yeah (yeah) Yeah, yeah (right now) Blue light on the avenue God knows they got to you An empty glass, the lady sings Eyes swollen like a bee sting Blinded you lost your way Through the side streets and the alleyway Like a star exploding in the night Falling to the city in broad daylight An angel in Devil's shoes Salvation in the blues You never looked like an angel Yeah, yeah, angel of Harlem Angel, angel of Harlem Angel, angel of Harlem
Apart from "Stay" the "Zooropa" album was terrible. "Pop" was only slightly better. "ATYCLB" was quite an improvement then they went downhill again. Apart from "Vertigo" I don't think anyone can name a half decent song from the last twenty years.
@@rockyfanatic6846 I think it’s a more normal life for the kids if they stay home and stay in school, and when they’re old enough, they can move on with their lives, taking them on a worldwide tour, it’s just not a good environment for a kid
@paulg6302 There used to be a 2 man blues outfit called "Satan and Adam". Sterling Magee and Adam Gussow were the dudes in this duo. The angel of Harlem Bono is talking about is Sterling Magee. He renamed himself Satan, and Adam Gussow was Adam. Satan was a Saint of man in this case. Now you fucking know, thank you and your welcome.

It was a cold and wet December day
When we touched the ground at JFK
Snow was melting on the ground
On BLS I heard the sound
Of an angel
New York, like a Christmas tree
Tonight this city belongs to me
Angel
Soul love, this love won't let me go
So long, angel of Harlem
Birdland on fifty-three
The street sounds like a symphony
We got John Coltrane and a love supreme
Miles, and she's got to be an angel
Lady Day got diamond eyes
She sees the truth behind the lies
Angel
Soul love, this love won't let me go
So long, angel of Harlem
Angel of Harlem
She says it's heart, heart and soul
Yeah, yeah (yeah)
Yeah, yeah (right now)
Blue light on the avenue
God knows they got to you
An empty glass, the lady sings
Eyes swollen like a bee sting
Blinded you lost your way
Through the side streets and the alleyway
Like a star exploding in the night
Falling to the city in broad daylight
An angel in Devil's shoes
Salvation in the blues
You never looked like an angel
Yeah, yeah, angel of Harlem
Angel, angel of Harlem
Angel, angel of Harlem
Sounds magnificent sung in B
Before the days of smart phones. Look at how into it the crowd were.
LOVE it ❤❤❤

one of best concert of all time
They were at their creative peak in 92-93 ZooTv tour. I think they should’ve retired, like R.E.M. did.
@@ObamaFromKenya Achtung baby was probably like their last decent album
@@davlor86 last decade they’ve been treading water
@@davlor86 their last amazing album was Songs of Experience. More to come.

Bono is one sexy man
EPIC
Edge riding the camera 🙂
When U2 was U2
So hot bono
+1
Bono vox. Im pretty sure its Latin for beautiful voice! ♥️
2:32 não aguento 😍
Bono anos 90 é sacanagem de gostoso 🔥
Very handsome star:)
Ah..
Much better than the Rattle and Hum horns
@Jonathan Hrovat I can’t agree, BB Kings horn section completed the song
Does he take his kids on tour with him
At this point, 1993 , his kids were quite young, and 2 of them not even born yet.
Barry Obama he had 4 kids and his first daughter Eva hewson was born in 1991
Barry Obama do you think he should take his kids with him on tour same with wife
@@rockyfanatic6846 I think it’s a more normal life for the kids if they stay home and stay in school, and when they’re old enough, they can move on with their lives, taking them on a worldwide tour, it’s just not a good environment for a kid
Barry Obama his kids are adults
I love this song but Bono was out of energy, he needed a cup of coffee
The song is about Satan, and it's good.
Wtf
You're off your rocket, mate, lol
@@Paul_G73 No mate, it needs explaining no doubt. It's a good story.
@@rocketamerica2450 There isn't any Satan
