"Midniigghht"

 

[monsieur fly]

Ambitious and intoxicating, perhaps their greatest ever moment in my opinion.

Thinking critically, I find the track a bit overlong in that the actual song is very simple and repeats itself somewhat. But I think it's one of those things where they had a really new sound here and they wanted to show it off. Credit to them for doing something new, and writing a pretty cool (if weird) song.

Score it an 8.

easy 10. when i first heard it, i was like "what the fuck". but then i watched the video with macphisto and i got it, and have loved it ever since.

your blue room is not better than zooropa.

Epic. Genius. Best lyrics Bono's ever written. It was my favorite U2 song for a long time. It still may be; I'm not sure.

Quality asessment there Jacobus, I'll go along with that. Little bit of Prince, little bit of Talking Heads. Unlike anything else they've done, very brave use of falsetto which works perfectly.
A resounding Ten.

 

[God Part III]

Top 5 U2.
10 of course.

 

[Gabi_Clayton]

10 for live version

10, 10, 10.

This is in my top 5. Bono's falsetto, the "midnight where the day begins" part, the wonderful sonic landscape they've created with this... all of it simply stunning.

yep. i actually think the last minute of the song seals the deal for me, with the Edge's chorus riff over the strings. that's one of those spine chilling moments for me.

 

[cobl04]

"a man melts the sand so he can see the world outside" always captivated me.

i'd be fine with 12 and 13 being switched.

 

[Earnie Shavers]

10

Every bit as epic as Streets, IMO.

 

[MilotheMayor]

10

Bono's best lyrical effort.

 

[roy]

It's U2's most overrated song IMO. It's decent but way overlong and completely repetitive. It's a 7.

 

[alanah]

10.

 

[Vlad n U 2]

10 outta 10, no questions asked. One of Bono's best and most complete lyrical pieces. Edge's lovable disco guitar effect thing. A beautiful chorus and the group singing (Edge, Eno) just tops it off.

The music video is pure magic.
