My take on this is that he's looking for God. "You broke the bonds, and loosed the chains/You carried the cross of my shame/You know I believe it..." And the spiritual quest goes on.

According to Bono, he wrote this song as a hymn. Initially they were going to record it with a gospel choir. According to Bono, he believes in what Jesus did for him, but what he's looking for is the kingdom and the fulfillment of the promises. Basically, there will always be some level of discontentment on this side of eternity where there is war, injustice, corruption, poverty, sickness, etc.

Had one of the great concert moments at a U2 show at the now demolished JFK Stadium in Philly, with about 100,000 other folks. Just as they were beginning the song "Bullet The Blue Sky", a jet airliner flew RIGHT OVER THE STADIUM. Don't know how they timed that one! More U2 magic.

Peak U2. "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" was the second consecutive number-one single in the USA from U2's platinum selling 1987 album The Joshua Tree. They released a live album, Rattle & Hum, the following year. It includes a version of this song that draws on the gifts of The New Voices of Freedom Gospel Choir to take the song to church ( kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iqeoppOirqjbYJs.html ). Your estimation of meeting U2 is spot on. Friends of mine in high school on a trip they took to Ireland back in 1983 or 1984 ran into them on the street. That was when U2 was just becoming known in the US. I don't remember all the details of their story (it was their story after all). But the short of it that they, more or less, took a selfie with Bono which they made into Christmas cards. My friends all had good things to say about meeting him. When you're ready to dig deeper into their catalog, check out some of these songs -- "Gloria", "In God's Country", "New Year's Day", "The Unforgettable Fire", "Desire", the live version of "Bullet the Blue Sky" from their from Rattle & Hum album, "Two Hearts Beat As One", "Surrender", "I Will Follow", "Twilight", "Red Light", "Mysterious Ways", "Until the End of the World" ...

You should find a live version of this. They call it their gospel song. They are transcendent live and as Bono likes to say to Edge the guitar player, "Edge, take us to church" ! Definitely watch Rattle and Hum the concert film they did back in the 80's documenting their journey around the USA. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/g56Hp5aVzayYlok.html They go to Harlem and have the Harlem Gospel Choir sing this song and they filmed it in their church. So good!! You will love it!! There is a clip here on youtube you should check it out. The version they did on Jimmy Kimmel more recently with the gospel choir is also amazing! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mZaAlcVpt6iYmI0.html Bono is very spiritual but played it cool in his younger days. They didn't want to be labeled a CCM band. ( Contemporary Christian) They wanted to appeal to everyone and include everyone and boy they sure did! I have seem them only twice live but I plan on more!

As much as you love the band's music and especially Bono, I really encourage and recommend you watch Bad. The Live Aid version is just fire and he helped save the life of a girl in the audience getting crushed. Whomever owns that video (not U2 - they don't block) tends to block that one. Another one (my favorite) is Bad live 1985 version. He is so energetic it seems like he might explode. They were so raw and so young then too. It's my favorite version of Bad. I'm a hurge U2 fan and there are loads of their live videos here, but that one is excellent. Love your reactions.
@bminturn2 жыл бұрын
People like to dog on U2, but you are absolutely correct: in his prime, Bono was one of the best male vocalists around. He had a nearly 4 octave range, which is insane for a pop/rock singer. His pops was an opera singer, though, so I think that Bono got a lot of his chops from his dad. The music that U2 made was generally a canvas for Bono to write (sing) on.
