I wish that, someone would invent the Time machine, so I could travel back in time - just to see Zoo TV live.... I was 7 years old at that time... feelin soo sory about not beeing able to be a part of this awesome show!!!!
Amazing how they can sometimes make old songs fit to the style and context of current tours. U2's songs are universal and won't fade with the times they were created in.
this song for you who dont know is about a set of flats in dublin near where i live that is basically a ghetto full of drugs and bono lived behind it, so he watched this going on everyday as a kid so he wrote this as a girl living there trying to get out
couldnt have said it better myself. this has to be one of their greatest live acheivements and possibly a live gig that will be remembered with some of the great historic live gigs. like you say. spine tingling stuff. always will be too!!! would have given up alot to have been there, and ive seen them in dublin on thier home turf. but this was something special
this has to be one of the all time greatest live performances of a song.haunting and chilling is correct but it inspires feel in a person.outstanding.thanks for sharing.......ken
2:56 my heart goes out to anyone that has seen a loved one or friend suffer through addiction, be it alcohol or drugs, not to mention the families heartache. A silent prayer for my (ex)wife, may she find serenity some day.
spine-tingling stuff. Re-watching this whole concert, i've had the chills about 5 times already. U2 concerts never fail to do that, no matter how often i've seen them. I love the way bullet the blue sky led into this song, and how this goes into streets have no name..... with the lights, bono's harmonica over those droning tones...the energy in that arena..... i wish they still did shows like this
i seriously love this song i have been lucky enough too take my son and wife to the last brisbane concert 360 tour best thing i"ve done totally blessed u2 forever
this song was wrote about my close pal who grew up with Bono. Bono seen Andy in the height of addiction grown up together and this song is about running away from addiction in Ballymun Dublin. Andy is now nearly 6 years clean and a born again Christian. Enjoy this song
Edges repetitive "clangy" guitar riff and one of the most incredible bass parts Clayton has ever played make this into such a memorable version which I will never get bored of. It gives the song so much depth and edge, just incredible.
I saw them years ago at a little community college in New York state (I was young!)...it was AWESOME!! You could feel the excitement, the intensity, the passion & love for their music & messages.
i'm a long time U2 fan, their music is sublime i think and this is my number 1 U2 song of all times..it has a special place in my heart..thanks Bono for poetry
I remember seeing this as a pay per view. It's unfortunate the store copy contains a number of edits. As Bono walks off the stage, there's a pretty amazing close up of him when he turns back to the crowd. You don't see that here. Absolutely priceless.
I've liked U2 since Unforgettable Fire and I finally got to see them live in 2009...so those of you waiting to see them you'll get to one of their gigs eventually and they're well worth the wait! :-)
@CharlieeeBeee I'm also 14 and my computer, my phone, my head and my entire life is dominated with U2. Except that I got the chance to see them twice. And when you write this i remember how lucky i am. I remember only 2 years ago that i thought i would NEVER see them live, but i guess i was wrong. So, your dream will come true, just never stop trying. It's worth it every penny. :)
I thought they were holding up cameras and phones for a second. No...they were in the moment holding up hearts, peace signs and their hands to the music. Must be nice.
The best song written - all about hope for the human condition and struggle - so inspiring - sad, hopeful and uplifting at the same time. My favorite of all times!
"She will suffer the needle chill" "Shes running to stand still" The tragedy that IS chemical addiction, heroin, alcohol, ice, whatever..... tears families apart, tears addicts apart. Believe me I know, I have felt my family torn apart. A prayer to others that have loved ones suffering.
Esta es a mi entender la mejor version en vivo de Running to stand still. Que gran tema, el intro de the edge, el bajo, todo; los gestos de Bono, el timbre de su voz. Lo maximo U2
All 8 people who dislikes are without of sense , i think they don't know what is a real voice for live singing....and bono have this, the best singer in live....no one can sing like he sings...
Bono= king of ireland, rock god, and saint to thousands and millions who have survived or their lives have been improved thanks to Bono and his charity and humanitarian work!
"Streets" followed this performance during this tour so you can imagine the amazing buildup to it. After the harmonica all the screens eventually turn red and the organ for Streets begins.
Joshua Tree is perhaps one of the all time greatest albums. This song, along with One Tree Hill, Trip through your wires, Red Hill Mining town, are all excellent U2 songs that were overshadowed by the other big hits (e.g I still haven't found..., where the streets have no name, with or without you).
I like this live version and the quality of video and sound it great! There are others but not of this quality! thanks for posting this version, love it!
was there too 1993 Zoo Tv concert remains the best Concert I have seen Even better than the Guns n roses Concert !!! THis was at there Prime for sure !!!! My fave U2 Song along with love is Blindness Such passion > Problem today Wheres the passion Gone ?? 4 love not Money !! agreees with The chief Amazin ! thanks for posting Paulo :P
@SeekNd3str0y You said what was going through my mind when i left the last concert in July 20, 2011. When i leave i can't think about anything else and take the next day off to go through a withdrawal.
Fantastic song from a truly great rock band at the very top of their game. FYI - this song is about Ballymun, a v tough area of north Dublin which suffered hugely from drug addiction. There were seven high rise tower blocks which were synonomous with Ballymun - hence the line "I see seven towers, I only see one way out"
Cry without weeping, talk without speaking, scream without raising your voice....
Words to live by....
To my uncle who passed away 15 years today through his demons. We still think of you.
For those still running may god be with you
this song sends chills through me. It's magnitude
is beyond measure. I agree with many of you. This
is definitely version of the song. Amazing!
The man knows how to put on a show.
This is my favourite version of this song.
This is not a live performance, is much, much more.
I wish that, someone would invent the Time machine, so I could travel back in time - just to see Zoo TV live.... I was 7 years old at that time... feelin soo sory about not beeing able to be a part of this awesome show!!!!
my brother brought me to u2! love you, joe!
The best preformance of this great song.
Amazing how they can sometimes make old songs fit to the style and context of current tours.
U2's songs are universal and won't fade with the times they were created in.
You got to cry without weeping
Talk without speaking...
This is the best song I've ever heard...
It makes me better than I am!
this song for you who dont know is about a set of flats in dublin near where i live that is basically a ghetto full of drugs and bono lived behind it, so he watched this going on everyday as a kid so he wrote this as a girl living there trying to get out

Just another classic, played live to perfection by the best, yet the most humble band on the planet.
THE BEST VERSION!!!!!
zoo tv for me..greatest tour ever
this has to be one of the all time greatest live performances of a song.haunting and chilling is correct but it inspires feel in a person.outstanding.thanks for sharing.......ken
That voice must reached heaven that day
Probably the greatest live performances in the history of music.
I agree
2:56 my heart goes out to anyone that has seen a loved one or friend suffer through addiction, be it alcohol or drugs, not to mention the families heartache.

No other Band in the world can ever reinvent a song like U2 do ,
they do covers of there own song and live ,
to me that is truly amazing !!
The Greatest Band in the World!
"Cry without weeping, talk without speaking and scream without raising your voice" - this means so much in such powerful words - brilliant poetry!
i seriously love this song i have been lucky enough too take my son and wife to the last brisbane concert 360 tour best thing i"ve done totally blessed u2 forever
I get choked up EVERYTIME I watch this video... the end is just awesome.
My dad's favourite song other than stairway to heaven, gonna learn it for him :)
grace,love and peace........
One of the greatest performances of the song.....visually it shows exactly what its about....amazing.
All I can say is *WOW*.
what would this awful world be like without great music like this to heal our wounded souls?
It reminds me of friends, lost, trying and those who dont give a damn......Prayers to all! BTW, I think im in love !! Bono!
I hope that they will remember these songs in Athens!!
this song was wrote about my close pal who grew up with Bono. Bono seen Andy in the height of addiction grown up together and this song is about running away from addiction in Ballymun Dublin. Andy is now nearly 6 years clean and a born again Christian. Enjoy this song
If his heart had toes, then that is where he "brung it from".....incredible...

Sometimes things happen in your life and you have no control ,
and a song just brings you to tears and makes things ok
I have been moved to tears at u2 gigs once or twice...
i'm a long time U2 fan, their music is sublime i think and this is my number 1 U2 song of all times..it has a special place in my heart..thanks Bono for poetry
Wow, wow, wow. I'm dumbfounded, thank you U2. This song is one of the best song ever written and sung by a great singer ever. Hallelujah.
Crushes me EVRY TIME he starts to sing "Hallelujah" . . . every cussing time!
Halleluja!!! Thank you Jesus!
I remember seeing this as a pay per view. It's unfortunate the store copy contains a number of edits. As Bono walks off the stage, there's a pretty amazing close up of him when he turns back to the crowd. You don't see that here. Absolutely priceless.
seriously, words can't describe how amazing this band is! just incredible
I've liked U2 since Unforgettable Fire and I finally got to see them live in 2009...so those of you waiting to see them you'll get to one of their gigs eventually and they're well worth the wait! :-)

Such a good song! How to loose your addiction(s) ? God?

A song that brings back memories of another place, another time. Moving song.

what a version!!
He is singing directly from the heart
this performance brings tears to my eyes. It sends thrills through my body OMG just simply amazing
goose pimples justhearing the opening bars.. magnifique!
I thought they were holding up cameras and phones for a second.
No...they were in the moment holding up hearts, peace signs and their hands to the music. Must be nice.
The best song written - all about hope for the human condition and struggle - so inspiring - sad, hopeful and uplifting at the same time.
My favorite of all times!
The Best Solo Ive ever seen!

"She will suffer the needle chill"
"Shes running to stand still"
The tragedy that IS chemical addiction, heroin, alcohol, ice, whatever..... tears families apart, tears addicts apart. Believe me I know, I have felt my family torn apart. A prayer to others that have loved ones suffering.
Le temps passe le frissons et toujours là
........!
This is probably the best song ever. Period.
Every single time u listen to this track, it cant get any better, it cant get any better.. & then you hear this :))))))))))))))))))))))))
Bono looks like a security guard, he would make a made guard i reckon!
RIP Dave....gone never forgotten
U2... can send chills down your spine... and i mean that in the best way possible... their songs just make you think... Thank God!

One word: Fantastic!
Great version to a great song, from a bigest band!
U2 is a great band. I wish their concerts weren't so expensive and more available to their fans (i.e. not sold out in 5 minutes)
what a voice......nobody sings with passion like that anymore.
What a performance Bono!!!. You're super...
Wonderful... What a performance...!!!
Bono= king of ireland, rock god, and saint to thousands and millions who have survived or their lives have been improved thanks to Bono and his charity and humanitarian work!
"Streets" followed this performance during this tour so you can imagine the amazing buildup to it. After the harmonica all the screens eventually turn red and the organ for Streets begins.
This is a master showman. He is the best. There is no comparison.
Joshua Tree is perhaps one of the all time greatest albums. This song, along with One Tree Hill, Trip through your wires, Red Hill Mining town, are all excellent U2 songs that were overshadowed by the other big hits (e.g I still haven't found..., where the streets have no name, with or without you).

Stunning performance. Chills.
@SeekNd3str0y You said what was going through my mind when i left the last concert in July 20, 2011. When i leave i can't think about anything else and take the next day off to go through a withdrawal.
Long time to.enjoy this.son. great song at the end
saw u2 at wembley stadium in 1987.they were brilliant!
Gotta love this song!
I love the hallelujah part! makes the song so much more emotional and sooooo beautiful (without it its also a cool song)
Absolutely one of the best versions!
Just great, U2 at their finest
If you haven't seen U2 live, then your life is missing something.........
Chills are running down my spine and all over my body...

So. Powerful. Thank you for posting this all those years ago.
