Also a shock - many fans struggled with the new sound. I thought it was great - the sound of Pan European Harmony and the Futurism. Shame our Political Class aren't Bono.
@@Boric78 yeah, this is why the Achtung and Zooropa chapter is their best work, the music, tours, artwork are all inflected with with ideas and interesting concepts. The Irish band returning from a mythic America to a new Europe.
After 30 years, this song still kicks me in the ass and the soul at the same time. Absolute chills. This is basically the world since 1991 in one song.
Listen my dude, if music is good... it's ageless. People get born today and will love Led Zeppelin 15 years from now, that's the way it works :) To me Achtung Baby is one of the best albums of all time.

If you look at 1.12 of video , a pic of what looks like the Beatles flashes up , right on the nose of that guitar solo riff , that sounds almost note perfect to the small couple of seconds riff on Strwberry fields , Beatles Can't help but here that riff all the time through this song I don't think that's coincidences I never linked or noticed that before the many years I've viewed this fantastic tune
Based on the video, this should have been called Vertigo. I'm glad I have been able to grow up with the band! They always come out with exactly what I need/want to hear next!
"Watch more TV" - yeah right! "It´s on television so it must be true!" (Lemmy Kilmister) "Achtung Baby" is U2´s best album, so far. Great tunes and lyrics.
We took part in this video as "The Doppelgangers" lookalike band, it brings back so many great memories working with U2 and staff over four days at the Zoo shop at Carnaby Street & Pinewood studios. #U2
@@theTruthLifeNWay hey no problem, thanks for a wonderful show and looking after so us well during our visit, good to hear from you hope all well with you and the other UU2 guys.
Joshua Tree is a really amazing album with some of U2's most classic songs ever... but Achtung Baby is the 90's rival to it... because it was the sound of U2 chopping down the joshua tree
it's Funny as I rememeber feeling a bit flat towards it after the blues of the Joshua Tree (rattle n him was mostly live stuff with a few good tracks ) but NOW what an album... messes me up mind that it is 31 yrs old.., LOYS of life has been lived and lots of women loved since them times!! damm too fast
Some songs are just so iconic to me and this is one. This is one I listen to and in my mind I’m like “I can’t believe I was around and remember when this was released”. There’s something satisfying about that.
Thank You Mr. Larry Mullen Jnr for putting up your notice in the Mount Temple school in 1976 asking for Musicians .. Our Unique Brilliant Band would not exist today for that x
They ruled the world with Achtung Baby and Zoo TV. It was my Sr year in high school and ma it was a badass time indeed. Never forget it. Looking forward to Vegas this November
More credit? I mean, who cares. Achtung Baby is one of the best albums ever made that's quite obvious. It's basically complete. There isnt two singles and some afterthoughts. You could name every single song on that album and it's a classic in its own form. And I do believe the album is somewhat detached from anything they did before and after, although there are some songs from I think their next album that would have fit well on Achtung Baby as well, like "gone".
Para mí el mejor álbum de U2, no tiene desperdicio, allí se destaca la guitarra mágica de the edge, recuerdo en ese tiempo eran casettes yo lo compré por cierto, en aquellos 90'
To me, the word that anchors Achtung Baby is "Zeitgeist". It captured that moment of cultural upheaval, anxiety and possibility that was the end of the Cold War and the prospect of Anglo American corporate cultural hegemony like nothing else.
I am amazed only 2;2 m viewers .This is an outstanding track amongst U2 who have released 30 outstandings songs . The best band in the world the foo fighters .
This is a real giant rock video. I still remeber the first time i hear and saw this masterpiece. Still get goosebumbs. Those were the days. Missing those days. ZooTv was something to remember for my whole life. U2 on it s peak
Thanks to this video I became a fan of #U2. Even Better Than The Real Thing is still one of my favorite songs today. I think I can only hope what they have prepared for the 30th anniversary of the glorious Achtung Baby.Greetings from Latin America
What a song !! What a video !! Awesome camera work and editing !! It won best music video in 1992 at MTV video music awards for its innovative camera work.
If you're a Sega fan, you may have definitely noticed two notable arcade games during the Montage at the bridge. The first one is the attract mode from G-LOC Air Battle, and the 2nd one at the end of the montage, which has rails, is the first Rail Chase.
Wednesday, Thanksgiving Eve, 1991...6PM EST...right after work i leave my house in Jax., Florida to make it in time for turkey dinner at my parents house in Houston, TX the next day. I've got the new U2 cassette tape, Achtung Baby blasting in my 1982 Toyota Corolla...I distinctly remember speeding across the Florida panhandle dark as fuck, windows down, cool breeze rushing in and The Real Thing playing...time of my life.
This video gives me....wait for it....vertigo.
Daniel Lanois and Brian Eno created high sonic on Achtung Baby... the high water mark of U2's career.
agree
Un des meilleurs si ce n'est le meilleur album de U2 dont est tiré ce morceau ..je cite Atchung baby ..
30 years later fucking amazing song
Rockstars here. For real.
I recall Achtung Baby being the most anticipated album that I've ever witnessed in my lifetime. Brilliant track and album.
Agree!
Also a shock - many fans struggled with the new sound. I thought it was great - the sound of Pan European Harmony and the Futurism. Shame our Political Class aren't Bono.
Absolutely i remember buying the album at midnight the day it was released..

I love bono & The edge ♥️
200%!
Perfect

Still the Coolest Band 😎 ever ! Even in 2023 !!!!!!!!!!!!
I think Achtung Baby was their best studio album!
Joshua tree was great too 🐦
@@jillb2161 Agreed and it made them a Supergroup too! 😁
That album would be my 2nd favourite after Achtung Baby which just nudges it for me! 👍
I m of the two minds of which was better
No doubt about it....zooropa very good too!
저도 조슈아트리보다 악퉁베이비가 좋음
Guitaring on this track is majestic.
Achtung Baby soars above any other U2 record.
No doubt
The best Band of the planet
I love u2 nothing better than the real thing lol 😅😅😅😅
Achtung Baby will always be a game changer.
After 30 years, this song still kicks me in the ass and the soul at the same time. Absolute chills. This is basically the world since 1991 in one song.

This song is still rockin' after almost 30 years. Love this video.
Great driving tune with lots of Bass
Godley and cream
it's been 30 years already
William it's even better live or than the real thing
EDGE, El hombre de las mil guitarras
This has aged really well still relevant
The 1990's Was A Excellent Decade For Music and Films
If you look at 1.12 of video , a pic of what looks like the Beatles flashes up , right on the nose of that guitar solo riff , that sounds almost note perfect to the small couple of seconds riff on Strwberry fields , Beatles
Can't help but here that riff all the time through this song
I don't think that's coincidences
I never linked or noticed that before the many years I've viewed this fantastic tune
This song never gets old. Just as fresh now as it was thirty years ago
Agree
👍🏼
Agree!
Agree.
Live version or studio 😏
Everything about this band is right
Based on the video, this should have been called Vertigo. I'm glad I have been able to grow up with the band! They always come out with exactly what I need/want to hear next!
U2, the best in the world!!!!! Bono, number one, in the world!!!!!
This song is pre-internet and still sounds and looks like something that would come out current year.
whole album the same
Yeah, it has aged well.
It sounds better to me than anything that is likely to come out this year.
Even better than the current thing. Even better than the real thing....
IT SOUNDS SOOOO YESTERDAY !!! MOOVE ON !!
"Watch more TV" - yeah right! "It´s on television so it must be true!" (Lemmy Kilmister) "Achtung Baby" is U2´s best album, so far. Great tunes and lyrics.
Sliding the surface of things. Instant gratification. Smart and ironic song. They are an all around band.
"YOU ARE THE REAL THING...EVEN BETTER THAN THE REAL THING..."
HENCE THIS EXERCISE WITH THE N9NE...
We took part in this video as "The Doppelgangers" lookalike band, it brings back so many great memories working with U2 and staff over four days at the Zoo shop at Carnaby Street & Pinewood studios. #U2
I always wondered who were the first doppelgangers. They took a similar approach for the Tomb Raider video
You were so good, anyone not knowing any better, thinks the ‘window band’ is the real deal 👍🏼☺️

Achtung baby and Zooropa are my favorite U2 albums. Nothing better than this two. 😍
We will never see anything like this again... So sad
My goodness this song is addictive.
more vertigo than "Vertigo" but I love this video and this song.
Joshua Tree is a really amazing album with some of U2's most classic songs ever... but Achtung Baby is the 90's rival to it... because it was the sound of U2 chopping down the joshua tree
Great quote from Bono.
Esse U2 sarcástico e debochado com esse álbum sensacional nunca mais nem o próprio U2 é capaz de se superar !!
And sadly they planted Puny Joshua tree after 2000 year
Sitting under it dublin ireland ❤🇨🇮🎇✨✨✨✨✨
Achtung Baby...incredibile album!!! Every song a Masterpiece. And the video, wow!!! 30 years ago, but good music Is forever
Achtung Baby is my most favorite album of the band. and this year will be 31 years anniversary.
30 years: 18 novembre 1991
Achtung baby the best album of all time.
Thanks fo the correction bro

this was U2 at its peak, just amazing music and media presentation/design, no one compares to u2 in this particular moment
Zoo TV stageshow was overwhelming
@@coreyzimmerman9782 I loved it!
Absolutely.
This is the best album ever made.

One of if not THE BEST music video ever made!
XD
Can't believe this is the first time I've seen it.
I know the song but never seen the video. The 90’s is a decade for good visuals.
LOL!
Completely agree, never got tired of seeing this on MTV back in the day. Video and message have aged really well.
This song is Prophetic. We have evolved and devolved simultaneously.
JESUS CRIST THIS HD IS BEAUTIFUL MY EYES ARE BLESSED EASILY THE BEST ONE
One of my favorite albums … Actung baby
Back then “Watch More TV”, now “Watch More RUclips” 😎
Same amount of ad's 📺🥽.

90s U2 deserves more credit than it gets. Sometimes people act like U2 didn't release anything noteworthy between the 80s and "Beautiful Day" SMDH...
People who thinks like this are fucking stupid
Agreed, I think 90s u2 was the best. They are at their peak here

Yes indeed, I lived in Berlin back then.
The Fly without fly shades. This video was the real thing, one of my favorites musical videos.
probably one of my favorite songs of ALL time 😉

It's 2022 and this still sounds brilliant. Was listening to some live 1983 U2 this morning and woooo so much energy and what a great live band too!
Doesn't it suck that rock, notably rock like this is damn near dead on the charts today?
This is a real giant rock video. I still remeber the first time i hear and saw this masterpiece. Still get goosebumbs. Those were the days. Missing those days. ZooTv was something to remember for my whole life. U2 on it s peak
11/30/2022. Stills. The Same. Rock n Roll

I m still wondering how they made this video...the camera makes astonishing movements, that I can't realise. Insane!!🫨🫨
One of the best U2 songs, it makes you vibrate
That whole album beginning to end.
U2 in their most creative and exiting phase. AB, Zooropa en Pop. Wish they tried it again!
this cut was amusing once but I don't need to hear it again. Thanks U2 for not taking down the bootlegs.
Achtung Baby is amazing 😍
I think you are so amazing I love this song good video
U2 at their finest hour. ❤
best U2 album in my opinion
No doubt for sure.
Thanks fore the rescue U2!
Great song. Great lyrics. Great video. Achtung Baby made me a U2 fan and the ZOO TV Tour blew my mind.
Whomever changed U2's image back then was a genius. Fly shades, vinyl etc... genius move
pasan los años, y no me canso de verlo y disfrutarlo !!!
This song gives me vertico.anybody else?
What a song !! What a video !! Awesome camera work and editing !! It won best music video in 1992 at MTV video music awards for its innovative camera work.
The Edge has put more “flavor” into an electric guitar than anyone ever before
This is Kevin Godley ALL OVER IT. Such a distinctive producer! One of the best. I remember seeing this and thought it was from the future.
