That's exactly how that line and the way it is delivered musically and vocally makes me feel RIGHT IN THE GUTS AND HEART walking listening to it walking on the beach the other day - it gives me a spiritual buzz to think of others connecting in the same way PERHAPS even at the same time THANKS a...

There's just so many songs, i find some vividly connect at certain moments - I love the wide open nature of where the streets have no name, the way that can travel up my spine and give me such a spiritual rush. Thers a bit on zoo TV when Bono sings this song and he he's changed clothes and looks...

katie and Swami Love your locations guys, thanks for the post, hope we catch up soon. Redhotswami now that is an awesome name, your own invention?

just read the last two posts on this forum and then went straight into listening to the song, feel pretty emotional at the moment. I am so moved by yours and everybody's thoughts on this song, i didn't think the feelings could get any deeper and more beautiful on this song but they have. I feel...

Hope it's not against the rules (i apologise if it is) this seemed important to post on this section of the forum as well as the musical journey section for those who hadn't seen it there. Not, because of my ego it seemed relevant to here, hope this means something to some of you - jules...

October And the trees are stripped bare Of all they wear What do I care? October And kingdoms rise And kingdoms fall But you go on and on God i love this song, it confirms my belief in inspiration and genius combined when i hear this. What do you all think, can't get excited by it or...

Hey u2 is and game i thank you for your wonderfully sincere, eloquent and above all passionate posts, hope to hear more from you. Iwasn't sure if the email invitation was meant for me as well as game but i'll gladly drop you a line if you like that. May the most deeply found incomparable peace...

hey Dismantle me i really love your interpretation, i've always found the Christopher Nolan story incredibly moving and inspiring. There is such a special sense of being human and all it's possibilities at the heart of u2 and your post makes me hear it now in yet another special way. What i like...

Gamecocsvic i also meant to say at the start of my post i'm really glad you've found a genuine community, i've found whatever the religion there is frequently a lot of backbiting in these organisations together with some amazing genuine people. The music sounds fantastic, tell me more about your...

Hi Gamecocksvic A little background, hope you find it of interest. I am open to all, i practice a form of meditation (not seemingly commercial like the beatles maharishee) popularised by a guy called Ramana Maharshi, he died in the 1950's and it was popularised in books such as the secret self...

Really enjoying your journals by the way, had a little comment about the blackberrying expedition with your mother. You're gifted and funny thanks a lot - jules

Hi Any u2 fans in this area on this forum?

I love the Freedom line i reallw well up at times when i hear this, it reminds me of holding my son for the first time as well as the actual meaning itself. I also love the "love and logic will keep us clear" - some people (or so it seems to me) seem to talk as love and logic as exclusive to...

Hey Mystic Child You've arrived at something very special, the way you can feel the sand under your feet and the sheer awe of what's around you, right now right this minute. Life can be amazing, vital and beautiful. I meditate every day now, that grounding and connection with the infinite...

MRBTH That really was such evocative and vivid reading with the way you started your post and all the feedback. I loved the way you described it coming in from to the ether right into someones head, that's painting bright, wonderful and frightening scenes. It's interesting because despite all...

I find that a really interesting idea, the battle between father and son. My father and i were never close apart from getting a bit closer during holidays. As the holiday drew closer i could sense him receding into the distance again as his business worries srew closer. Now as a result of...

[I like alot of artists outside of U2: Coldplay-some of you who are reading this are hissing at that. Bush Smashing Pumpkins Pearl Jam The Cure-from reading forums it seems like a sin to like them Depeche Mode Dido Kate Bush Peter Gabriel The Police-my favorite band Sting Prince Todd Rundgren...

I agree with U2 girls analogy but i can't help thinking about the heaven idea as well i think that's a beautiful and luminous idea. I guess i can't help thinking that what you can't leave behind can be both carried and transcended if that makes any sense. It's like different layers of the same...

I just absolutely love this song, there seems so many ways one could interpret it. I read somewhere about Bono seeing it as about his daughters growing up and a sense of them having to make their own way more, wondering what's going to happen and more and feeling a little "out of control on a...

Hey Green I'm from Norwich too tell me more about yourself, somebody told me u2 played the uEA once, can you imagine that? -jules

reply to for honour Hi I'm really interested in what you're saying about suddenly seeing the spiritual side of things and also what U2 contribute to this. I have found that when i'm finding it hard to meditate listening to the band really helps with certain songs. I have particularly found it...

dballHi everybody thanks for your welcome, really appreciated. anybody got any ideas on what the new (not the best of) U2 album might be sounding like. I would kind of like a mix between vertigo, achtung baby, zooropa, thinking about it ic ould go on. With a nod to experimentation and the...

Thanks JNP i'll look it up

Good to see people still pumped up about that er lemon performance, it still sounds so brilliant after all these years to my ears I know i'm digressing again but Ultra Violet light, a song i love on record never sounds so good when i have heard it live but then i've only heard it a couple of...
