The song is alright but the video was horrendous. Sure, the idea behind the video was quaint or cute but the execution... ugh!
What's so bad about Elevation?

LJT said:I really think that the Elevation video and song are meant to be symbolic of the plight of Africa and its people....
My reasoning basically relies on the fact there were elephants and giraffes in the video
I love you

I personally prefered the remixes of Elevation and I thought the video was very funny. I liked the flying elephant! There's usually a lot of humour in most of U2s videos but most it goes unnoticed by the great unwashed!!

I thought the video was funny when it came out, but I just watched it again recently and laughed because it was SO LAME.
As for the song, it was a great opener during Elevation and I have liked hearing it this go-round, but it's not in my top five (or even top 20) U2 songs.
