Never understood the hostility towards U2, I get that Bono can be a little like marmite, but they have consistently released excellent (sometimes astonishing) music for over 40 years, with the same 4 members. One of the most important and relevant bands in the history of rock.

U2 is the band of my lifetime. I feel sorry for anyone who "doesn't get" a catalog of amazing music of 40+ years and counting...

Edge might be the most unique guitarist of his era. No one else plays like him.

Why do I always think the band is Nickleback...

I can't believe Rick is talking about "Drowning man" to me that is one of those songs that really separate casual listeners from people that (whether they like U2 or not) REALLY know the band... if they know this song. To me it has forever been a masterpiece... Cheers from Costa Rica!

Being 22 at the time, I wanda if U2 knew how complicated this song was or were they doing it by feeling and passion. Side note - any Rock fan that doesn't like U2 is musically ignorant. Any Rock fan that hates U2 is tremendously stupid and really isn't a Rock fan.

Back in the day you had to buy the whole album...and then were rewarded by discovering songs like this one.

Never understood people hatin' on U2. Amazing band amazing songs I think people just got tired of Bono preachin' all the time.

“Bono doesn’t need auto-tune. Ever.” You got dat right, Mr. Rick. Bono’s voice still makes my hairs stand up. Still. After SO many years….

drowning man is such an underrated track of theirs. there's not another song like it in their discography; that kind of magic only happens once.

There’s no other way to cut it. This guy is a talented presenter and a great advocate for music. I hope kids are watching this and getting into music. The three attributes of a great teacher are to enthuse, inform and inspire. This guy does all that. Respect.

I think the other thing is that only a Celt could come up w that type of melody. To me it sounds like an old Irish hymn that no one outside of Ireland or Scotland would ever understand. Amazing! One of my fav records and songs

I met Adam Clayton with a friend of mine in 1984 not far from where I live. I was a young teenage fan, he said he just finished recording the unforgettable fire. A real gentleman and very kind with his time,love his bass lines. Most down to earth guys you will meet... ☘️

An alternate title could be “why you should listen to full albums and not just songs / playlists”. Beato talks about War as a great album and he’s spot on. At the time, it stood out as one of the few perfect albums - every song great and a perfect listen as each song transitioned to the next. I feel that’s a topic on its own, and one that I discuss often with a few friends. Very rare these days, but maybe coming back with the trend toward vinyl. Great video, Rick!

This whole album spoke to me when I was a young teen in the 80’s. When I lost my firstborn son to brain cancer in 1996,it had been a few years since I had listened to War. When I got to Drowning Man,I just lost it and wept like never before .It was truly at that time I understood the loss Bono had with his mom at a young age.

Man, U2 IMO, is a top 5 R&R band of all time. No particular order but them along Beatles, Stones, Zeppelin and Pink Floyd are on another level. All members are just amazing players and Edge’s sound is so original and alongside Bono’s voice and lyrics make them a perfect band.

With Bono singing "with wings like eagle, you run and not grow weary", the "take my hand" backing vocals, and that violin melody always gives me the chills.

I've been a U2 fanatic almost my entire life. Not just my favorite band, they're a big part of my cultural development as a person. I LOVE them. To you: thank you so much for this lovely tribute to an underappreciated deep-cut. Seeing you break down the melody was a treat. Thank you!

For me, it's the layering that makes this song so awesome. Their taking simple parts and piecing them together to make something sound immense. It really does sound like a hymn, and Bono's voice cuts through that so well that you just get lost in the music.

This is the record that introduced me to U2. I was 16 back then (now I am 54) The first song I heard was Sunday Bloody Sunday and it just floored me! I could not believe what I was hearing; it was like a flood of fresh water, I was listening to new music that had a purpose.
