MERGED --> Anyone else seen the COBL video? + Here it is: COBL Video Link+COBL Video

Does anyone else think the "tiiiiiime" part is absolutely butchered in this edit? I laughed when it came on. The video is fine, but the live take for it wasn't a good choice. I think Bono sounds terrible.

I was laughing also..it was horrible

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

they really didn't do a good job of capturing how cool their stage lighting is... and in a video where that's baisicly the entire point, not doing that is, well, stupid.

The link works but I cant seem to get the media player to work. Could be a firewall here at work or something like that. Rats!

[victor_f]

isn't it too dark!?

 

[miss becky]

Very nice! I'm suddenly filled with longing to be back in GA in Chicago...this video really captures the feeling of the song live.

 

[Snowlock]

Somebody please please please rip this to audio! What a great live version of this song.

 

[super fly guy]

Just seen the vid on the box!!

 

[Lancemc]

I downloaded the video. And I must say it's absolutely stunning. All it is is a performance video as if plucked right from a Vertigo concert. It really shows the beautiful lighting well and the band is really into it. Watchting this video takes me right back to the Philly concert last month, my first U2 concert ever. It's a wonderful feeling.

 

[Ancalagon]

Where did you download it from, Lancemc? Please?

I hope whoever originally posted this here doesn't mind me reposting it. Just spreading the love.

 

[Ancalagon]

Thank you!

Man that is awesome, I got th chills a couple times watching it!!!

 

[dr.dae]

Yeah ! Thanks.

 

[namkcuR]

I'm not impressed. I like concert videos, but I like real music videos(that doesn't mean performance videos either), the kind that tell a story, the kind that are artistic, that make you feel like you've just watched a short film. New Year's Day, The Unforgettable Fire, All I Want Is You, One(Drag Version), Stay(Faraway, So Close), Lemon, Numb, IGWSHA, Please, etc.

 

[stagman]

Well it's better than most of their videos anyhow.
I think it's at least alright.

 

[thrillme]

Not only is this my favorite song off the new album, it's video is live!

Nov 1, can't come fast enough!

So that intro at the start, is coming from that keyboard thing Adam is playing?

 

[Achtung Ya'll]

Well it's better than most of their videos anyhow.

What? Jesus Christ no. Just...no.

U2 has had some great stylish videos in the past. Beautiful Art Direction...innovative. Check out any of the videos mentioned namkcuR. This doesn't hold a candle to them.


That said you are totally welcome to your opinion.


Man I'm just becoming cynical about them in general. The album didn't really do anything for me...the tour, so far, just kind of seems flat and weak compared to what I'm used to and the videos have just been lackluster (except for Vertigo which was ok at best).

Where'd the energy go?

Oh well. I'll still be in Atlanta in November waiting 10+ hours in line! They're still my favorite band!

 

[thrillme]

"Staring at the Sun" had no plot, no story, but it was visually stunning.

For me though, it's all about U2 live, better than music videos with story lines, plots, something going on, with just a play back of the album song.

"Video killed the radio star, picture came and broke your heart. And now we meet in an abandoned studio.
We hear the playback and it seems so long ago.
And you remember the jingles used to go. "

u2.com now has a live clip of COBL from most likely one of the shows they filmed in Chicago

I have to say I like that clip a lot better than the official video
