i can only think of 43 videos off the top of my head. now i am not counting live performances mtv has shown, like even better than the real thing from the 92 vma's, but if someone wants to tack on some live videos music channels have shown feel free to add them to the list and re-tally them. also i am not sure about how many videos were made for songs off boy and october. so feel free to make corrections and add on videos YOU HAVE SEEN, that i might not of.

The more of these I drink the more Bono makes sense.. - Bean from the KROQ Breakfast with U2.
 
there was a second walk on video as well as beautiful day i believe. if you really wanna get picky there were 'remix' videos for discotheque, two seperate ones from what i've seen, and i think 2 for ebttrt but i could be wrong.
there was also a rumor of a zooropa video existing but it has obviously never been released.
oh and miss sarajevo is another shady one that you might include or skip.

They also have one for "It's Christmas (Baby, Please Come Home)".

Also, I have seen "I Will Follow" three times:

1. I've seen it played by itself from UABRS.

2. I've seen another live version.

3. I've seen the one where Bono shows off his dance moves on the white set.

You can't count 'videos' from live performances. Those aren't videos, they are just filmed perfomances.

they are filmed performances which are then released as videos though.

Sweetest Thing! TGBHF! And, they did a video for Fire too right?
Also there was 3 versions of Pride, and don't forget about the unreleased versions of Red Hill Mining Town, Spanish Eyes, and In God's Country, haha.
The second version of SATS was home video of the boys in Miami. Wasn't it shot by Morleigh? When they were on vacation? I remember seeing this when it first came out, but I haven't since then.

It's called "The Miami Version" of "Staring at the Sun". It was shown a few times on TV (I have it on tape).

Kobayashi, if you want to check out SATS version 2 you can get an mpg version of it from my ftp.

ip:65.83.99.235
user/login: u2/u2

It also appears you're a rh fan from your signature, just change the user/login to rh/rh to see my rh stuff.
 
I remember a post a while back about a fourth version of "One"...

...and yes, Love Is Blindness and UTEOTW were both made as videos. UTEOTW is on the Achtung Baby video collection, and Love Is Blindness is on the Numb video collection. They were just never broadcast on television.

This reminds me...there were two videos for Numb too. The regular, and the one with all the factory worker clips with Edge off to the side.

I believe so. The one with Bono in a black shirt, and it's basically a live performance. That's all I remember of it.

actually there's a website out there(the addresss escapes me - I think it's U2wanderer) that says they've done like, *200* or more videos, but have only released about 1/3 of them to the public. I remember looking at the 'unreleased' list and thinking damn! i wish they'd released *that one* and *that one* and....! GRRR!
