That moment at the end where edge's guitar rings out and bono casts a quick glance backwards because he knows it sounds so good. The tone in this concert is just amazing throughout.
This is really good. But in my humble opinion, their 1993 Sydney ZooTV is their best live show. It’s not even particularly close. His voice never sounded better than it did on that tour. One of the greatest tours in the history of rock.
Edge's guitar playing from 3:00 onwards both gives me goosebumps and makes my eys moist with the sheer beauty of it's simple melody. It's like he's making that guitar sing.
When someone talking about the best guitar solos ever: starway to heaven, hotel california, sultans of swing, comfortably numb. But come on, The Edge's guitar solo here is probably one of the most beautiful things you have ever heard.
This song is absolutely beautiful but from the 2.58 point onwards it is pure mesmeric 'other worldly'. I could listen to that part over and over for the rest of my days. If only it went on for longer.
Ok this is Indeed one of the Best performances ever of this song. I would also add PopMart México dedicated to M. Hutchence (as good as this one, and equally emotional although for different reasons), Sydney 93 of course, and one that often flies under the radar but it's as good as the ones mentioned, and that is the version they performed at the Brit Awards 2001. All of them are ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The Pop mart version is so sad but a beautiful tribute to the sudden loss of their mate M.Huthence...gets to me every time as I can relate to this after losing a close friend through the same way
Hear me coming lord Hear us call Hear us knocking, We’re knocking at your door Hear us coming lord Hear us call Hear us scratching Then you make us crawl oooh ooohhh ooohhh oooohhh ooohhhhhooooh oooohhhhhoooooo
one love.... one blood... one life... you got to do what you should one life.... with each other.... sister....brother.... one life ... but were not the same...you got to carry each other...carry each other.....one :)
I have seen them live 3 times since this song was released, and have listened to a lot of other live versions. This is, hands down, their best live performance of the song that I have come across. I love it at the 04:07 mark, when Bono realizes that they're just killing it. I smile every time.
I agree and think that this Slane show is one of their best. Tons of soul bleeding out of it. I too have seen them 4 or 5 times and they had moments but, this whole show was the moment. I might have them mixed up ...but this show was just after Bono's father passing ??? This show and Red Rocks are 2 I wish I was in attendance
"One" is a seminal song by the Irish rock band U2, released in 1991 as the third single from their album "Achtung Baby." The track is often considered one of U2's greatest achievements and has left an indelible mark on the music landscape. Here's a comprehensive overview of the song "One": Musical Composition: Structure: "One" is characterized by its emotive lyrics and a slow, contemplative musical arrangement. The song follows a traditional verse-chorus-verse structure, but the delivery is distinctive and deeply moving. Melody: The melody, especially in the chorus, is powerful and memorable. The simplicity of the chord progression adds to the emotional impact of the song. Lyrics: Themes: "One" explores themes of unity, reconciliation, and the complexities of relationships. The lyrics touch on the idea that even in moments of conflict or division, there is potential for healing and togetherness. Iconic Line: The song is perhaps most famous for its opening line, "Is it getting better, or do you feel the same?" This line sets the tone for the introspective and questioning nature of the lyrics. Background: Recording: The recording process of "Achtung Baby" was marked by tension and disagreements within the band. "One" emerged from a difficult period for U2, becoming a symbol of reconciliation and unity. Inspiration: The lyrics are said to have been inspired by Bono's tumultuous relationship with his wife and the broader context of political and social upheaval in the world during that time. Impact: Critical Acclaim: "One" received widespread critical acclaim and has been consistently ranked among the greatest songs of all time by various publications. Commercial Success: While it wasn't initially released as a single in the United States, "One" gained immense popularity and success when released as a single in Europe. Legacy: Cover Versions: "One" has been covered by numerous artists across various genres, further solidifying its status as a classic. Live Performances: U2 frequently includes "One" in their live performances. The song's emotional resonance is often amplified in a live setting. Awards: Grammy Awards: "One" won the Grammy Award for Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal in 1993. Conclusion: "One" remains not only one of U2's signature songs but also a poignant anthem that transcends its initial context. Its universal themes and emotional depth continue to resonate with audiences, making it a timeless piece of music that has left an enduring impact on both U2's discography and the broader music landscape.
Is it getting better? Or do you feel the same? Will it make it easier on you now You got someone to blame? You say, one love, one life (One life) It's one need in the night One love (One love) Get to share it Leaves you darling If you don't care for it Mary Did I disappoint you? Or leave a bad taste in your mouth?

There is no better version of ONE.
Agreed. This version is more emotional and pretty much perfect.
This is a man who needs a lot of TLC and time to learn how to live again-he has someone there for him
Best song EVER.
A man with his broken heart 💔 on his sleeve-respect- true honesty
U2 best one version. The guitar "singing" after 3:00 is unique. Thank you U2
Yes, love the classic Irish-style licks!
By far their best ever life concert performance. Stunning. This version of One is just insane.
That moment at the end where edge's guitar rings out and bono casts a quick glance backwards because he knows it sounds so good. The tone in this concert is just amazing throughout.
This is without doubt there finest live concert his voice is unreal and the band are in the zone
This is really good. But in my humble opinion, their 1993 Sydney ZooTV is their best live show. It’s not even particularly close. His voice never sounded better than it did on that tour. One of the greatest tours in the history of rock.
Edge's guitar playing from 3:00 onwards both gives me goosebumps and makes my eys moist with the sheer beauty of it's simple melody. It's like he's making that guitar sing.
4:07 Bono acknowledges it
simply amazing
When someone talking about the best guitar solos ever: starway to heaven, hotel california, sultans of swing, comfortably numb. But come on, The Edge's guitar solo here is probably one of the most beautiful things you have ever heard.
Never forget that that we “Get to carry each other”
One ❤
The Edge making that guitar cry, absolutely sick!
2022 and this song was off RUclips. Thanks for whoever brought it back. This song needs to be heard by all
La chanson de ma vie , un seul amour , en mémoire à mon épouse partie trop vite.
From 3:50 onwards is why you need to see bands live.
I think this is the best ''ONE'' played live :)
Fr
Zoo tv
Yep. Me too
either this or Chicago 2005 Vertigo
Look up the version they played at Modena in 95. You won't be disappointed !
Singing for his late father….bless him
At 3:58 you can see Adam Clayton look across the stage at The Edge and think "Wow".
The extended bit at the end gave me chills
My first ever concert was u2 at Slane, will never forget it, they set the bar high!!!
If the world ends we will nonetheless be listening to this til the end as long as there is electricity.
The definitive live version in my mind. And to think all that guitar sound is one person. Love The Edge!!
why is every song at this concert perfect?
I really don't know! :D
Cos U2 are the best rock group ever ❤❤❤❤x
Ele cantou em homenagem ao pai , que havia falecido. Cantou com a alma. Com amor
Because they're home ❤
This song is absolutely beautiful but from the 2.58 point onwards it is pure mesmeric 'other worldly'. I could listen to that part over and over for the rest of my days. If only it went on for longer.
Absolutely stratospheric!
One has remained a U2 classic since the day it was written. Doesn't matter how many times you hear it, it never loses it's edge
i saw what you did there!
During that concert bono escaped serious injury by alnost falling off the stage. Apparently he was standing far too close to the edge
Edge is just a magician.
Lump in the throat music.
Best song ever
Best live version, hands down.
One of the best concerts ever....
For those of you new to U2, yes, you just went to church
2015...still the biggest band on the planet
The best song and the best performance EVER
The guitar sounds like a dragon blazing on the horizon of a super nova.
True perfection... nothing more, nothing less...
Ok this is Indeed one of the Best performances ever of this song. I would also add PopMart México dedicated to M. Hutchence (as good as this one, and equally emotional although for different reasons), Sydney 93 of course, and one that often flies under the radar but it's as good as the ones mentioned, and that is the version they performed at the Brit Awards 2001.

The Pop mart version is so sad but a beautiful tribute to the sudden loss of their mate M.Huthence...gets to me every time as I can relate to this after losing a close friend through the same way
Hear me coming lord
Hear us call
Hear us knocking,
We’re knocking at your door
Hear us coming lord
Hear us call
Hear us scratching
Then you make us crawl oooh ooohhh ooohhh oooohhh ooohhhhhooooh oooohhhhhoooooo
What is this from? Did Bono chose this or is it from the Bible?
When U2 is on their game playing their best material... it's an out of body experience!! WOW!! Great song and video!!
Their best song by a mile,the edges guitar riffs are mesmerising a great guitar player,this version is outstanding.
Well said
The perfect song, played at its best.
The greatest last three songs to ever be played live to close a concert. As for One this is their greatest song in my opinion
Truly amazing song and one hell of a performance at such a great place which is Ireland.
No words! Just listen LEGENDS
What a masterpiece this version👌🏻
one of the best songs in 21th century
one love....
one blood...
one life...
you got to do what you should
one life....
with each other....
sister....brother....
one life ...
but were not the same...you got to carry each other...carry each other.....one :)
Best of U2 live performence ever!!!
Goosebumps, pure magic
This is the best version of “One” I have ever heard (or seen). I find it better than the studio version.
Love this. The end is beautiful ❤
I have seen them live 3 times since this song was released, and have listened to a lot of other live versions. This is, hands down, their best live performance of the song that I have come across. I love it at the 04:07 mark, when Bono realizes that they're just killing it. I smile every time.

2:50 : Goosebumps
Mitica questa canzone , indescrivibile legenda ❤🎉💯🔝🔝🎉🎊😜😜💕💕❤️❤️❤️
"We're one, but we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other
One"
May peace and love prevail in humanity.
Why did he change lyrics?
One life with each other MY sisters MY brothers?
What a message love U2
Was ready to slam this "live" version for unnecessarily using so many backing tracks (orchestra, 2nd guitar, etc.), but that outro was so beautiful...
Fun fact, it’s usually Dallas below deck that plays the synth or even second guitar sometimes.
De los mejores .deBest.❤❤❤❤😮😊.
2017 and still the biggest band in the planet 😎

Un poema 2023 thank you U2
I was here in 2001. Fantastic Nite!😁👌
Le morceau de guitare est tout simplement sublime.. Thé edge wouah
There is not going to be a better band than U2
Arms wide open eyes closed everything my heart feels noone knows
Is it getting better?
Or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you now
You got someone to blame?
You say, one love, one life (One life)
It's one need in the night
One love (One love)
Get to share it
Leaves you darling
If you don't care for it
Mary
Did I disappoint you?
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well, it's too late, tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other
One (One)
One (Oh, oh, one)
One (One, oh-oh)
One (Oh-oh)
Have you come here for forgiveness?
Have you come to raise the dead?
Have you come here to play Jesus?
To the lepers in your head
Well, did I ask too much? More than a lot?
You gave me nothing, now it's all I got
We're one but we're not the same
See we, hurt each other then we do it again
You say, love is a temple, love is a higher law
Love is a temple, love is a higher law
You ask for me to enter but then you make me crawl
And I can't keep holding on to what you've got
'Cause all you got is hurt
One love, one blood
One life, you've got to do what you should
One life with each other
Sisters and my brothers
One life but we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other
One
One
One
One
One
One
One love, one love
such a beautiful song
Great, must be one of the best live versions of this song!
Un vrai bijou musical... Je ne m'en lasse pas....

Out freaking standing version... I've always wondered if this is a sad, like it seems..., Or a happy song. Great song. Great show.
It's all of that brother. Sad, happy, haunting, uplifting and inspiring all in one incredible package.
@@chrisserong4966 it's about reunification of Germany....
Nothing emotional about it
@@mikeisagodd2121 🤣🤣
