being born.....feels like U2 that I love!
The bridge of GOYB. I don't care if you like the song or not, hearing 60,000 people screaming in unison "LET ME IN THE SOUND!" is going to be amazing.
"I tied myself with wire!!!"
Followed soon after by:
"I've been in every black hole, at the altar of the dark star. My body's now a begging bowl that's begging to get back, begging to get back to my heart...to the rhythm of my soul, to the rhythm of my unconsciousness... to the rhythm that yearns to be released from control....."
Walk out, into the streets.
That part squeezes a smile out of me everytime.
Very evocative
Great lyrics. The band is Being Born in the album plus the imagery of an actual birth mixed with a ferry to Africa. You can mix metaphors so that many interpretations occur. Though there are lots of great moments on the album.
The first minute of Breathe is absolutely thrilling. My favorite on the album, of course, but that first minute in particular is pure adrenaline.
I love the way Bono sings the word "Magnificent" right before the guitar solo.
"We are people borne of sound
The songs are in our eyes
Gonna wear them like a crown
Walk out, into the sunburst street
Sing your heart out, sing my heart out
I’ve found grace inside a sound
I found grace, it’s all that I found
And I can breathe
Breathe now"
The "we are people borne of sound" is like Bono is improvising and talking to you, not singing. After the "gonna wear them like a crown" I love Bono's "oh, oh" while Larry brings it up. Edge's voice while harmonizing on "walk out" is just amazing! I love his voice. In this particular one Bono sings that last "walk out" a little later than before and it feels great. Then there's more harmonizing from Edge during "I found grace inside a sound" and again it gets to me. The entire song is like a big climax. Just perfect.
The first minute of Breathe is absolutely thrilling. My favorite on the album, of course, but that first minute in particular is pure adrenaline.
Ev-ry day IIIIII die again, and again I'm reborn
Ev-ry day IIIIII have to find the courage to
WAAAAAALK OUUUUT, into the streets
For me its after all the vocal parts are done in Unknown Caller when that organ comes in right before Edge's guitar solo.Whats your favorite moment?
Ev-ry day IIIIII die again, and again I'm reborn
Ev-ry day IIIIII have to find the courage to
WAAAAAALK OUUUUT, into the streets
