Of the hundreds of concerts I have seen over my 45+ years of shows, the audio-visual of this song is unrivaled. Blessed to have been. Nice work on the edit of this. Thanks for posting.
When i heard u2 were playing the whole of Actung Baby live...one of my biggest wishes was for them no to re-invent this song in the live setting. Im so glad they mostly stayed true to the Zoo TV versions.
Agreed. I would extend that to the entire album. I was was really hoping they weren’t going to play So Cruel(1 of my 5 favorite songs of theirs) in a stripped down version because of how complex that song is to play live(which is why they had never played it live before this residency). I’ve always wanted a live version of that. Now we have it.
I couldn’t agree more. I feel bad even saying anything critical of him bc I’ve been a massive fan ever since I heard Bad on the radio in 1984. But his vocal has gotten so bad these past few years. What bugs me the most is it seems like its a matter of indifference and laziness on his part. Because he can still hit the notes. And I totally get it they’re getting up there in years. But he’s only 63 here. His contemporaries like Robert Smith (The Cure) and Simon Le Bon (Duran Duran) sound like they did 35 years ago. Paul McCartney sounded great until he was 78. Its so bizarre.
