i just posted this on U2ube

this is so appreciated, looking forward to a closer view...but thanks so much!!

you WILL hear this on your radio no question over the holidays!
edge was a little rough on the harmony's and back up but overall a "10" being the studio version, this as always with U2 live is an 11!!
It was great to hear the lines so clearly to the final verse...
"did everything but murder you and i"...no chills on that? then you are not human!
for their first opening of this gift for us fans, the boys did a fine job~

the song is currently breaking all over radio, i will update too-
currently as of Nov 20th
#4 in triple A
# 35 Hot AC
no heritage or active rock numbers yet, still out of the top 40 in those formats

Saints by the way, peaked at #7 triple A and #17 heritage rock-

bye4now~

definitely video

 

[last unicorn]

Strange, first time I did not see anything, but now it's working, thank you!
Great performance.

 

[david]

Wow. So maybe they no longer feel like they're obligated to promote the last album since it's been 2 years since the release of it?

 

[Val]

so good

 

[Jono]

and they introduced window, good list-

 

[Harry Vest]

"Window..." "Bad" and "One Tree Hill"
This is a show I would of loved to have seen!!!

 

[ROCKMEISTER]

Please Standby for Transmission:I watched the video from U218 of the Milan concert.Incredibly stunning visual's and sound and I was only listening through th TV speaker's.I'm going to have to reinforce my roof before I crank it through my sound system at full throttle!I'm going to try and assemble a special meeting at the U.N. and try to get the rest of this gig released on dvd!Milan rock's!!!

 

[LyricalDrug]

Window is being played all over the radio here in northern California. IT's gonna be a massive hit.

I said it when it was leaked, this is one of U2's ten best songs ever

 

[Yahweh_OMG]

Here it's not played at all.... they even say on french radio that this song is the weakest U2 single in years..... I agree, sorry.
However, very cool to have it in the setlist.... which is by the way unbelievable.... BAD, ONE TREE HILL, SAINTS, I WILL FOLLOW, etc....

 

[Jono]

no offense...french radio...??
Radio and Records and Billboard will tell the true tale of the success of this single, not french radio!

 

[Yahweh_OMG]

well.... France is a big market in Europe..... but I don't care I'm not french...

 

[Vincent Vega]

no offense...french radio...??

Not to say that this song is weak, but nevertheless a high position in charts doesn't make a song very strong; or good. Sometimes it just shows good marketing.

I like WITS, but have to admit that it's nothing extraordinary.
