Agree. Just one of my favourites

Holy crap this was amazing!! Unless I’m mistaken, this is the first time they’ve *ever* played this song in it’s entirety(just like how the 2017 Joshua tree tour was the first time they ever played Redhill mining town live is entirety).. let alone to play in it’s entirety live. To my knowledge the only other recordings that even exists of them playing this song was a stripped down acoustic version of a verse and a chorus on the Achtung Baby documentary, and a grainy shitty bootleg recording of a sound check in Hershey Pennsylvania ca. 1992. As a mega U2 fan, I always dreaded the inevitable eventuality of them just becoming a nostalgia band doing residencies. But considering that’s what gave me the first ever live version of this song, it’s instantly worth it to me.

They played it a few times during the Zoo tours. Very few. Michigan was one time. I think Foxboro too. But yes, it wasn’t a mainstay of the sets. Great that they are playing it now.

I saw Bono play it just him on an acoustic guitar in Chicago, on the Outside Broadcast show. It was cool, but this is much better!

I love this 🎵 song

“I’m only hangin on to watch you go down … my love”

O u2 cantando da forma ques tá no disco...simplesmente maravilhosa...PARABÉNS!!!

Vocals great on this. Never thought I’d see it done live. Simply amazing. Bravo

Passar pelo KZread não escutar essa música é impossível 😊

Yes very lucky people New album coming soon so hope to see them in uk

The fact they played this is amazing. I'm envious you experienced it live. Their best song of the album, and easily top 5 of their entire catalogue.

Fabulous rendition of an underrated song from their catalog! Great to see it finally given the light of day!

indeed

this song, unplayed since 1992, is still better than 99% of what has been done after Achtung Baby

Beautiful song thank you for uploading

Thanks for sharing it’s absolutely magical.

Saw them twice in a week on the original Zooropa tour around 1992, fantastic.

Thanks for this!

Bono's voice and this song are perfect for each other. So Gorgeous.

Such a great song with incredible bass on the original recording. I'm really surprised at how good Bono sounds here and how faithful he is to the original.

those snare drum hits that alternate with Adam's bass sound like a heartbeat. Like on the original recording, was waiting for Bono to sing that falsetto "yeahh-haa" after the "Love dying every hour love" line, that throws the song into another gear, with Edges guitar getting louder in the mix to drive the song to finish - but it never came. Still a great live version here. One of my fav tracks off Achtung Baby

I think it's getting harder for him to do that high range. I doubt he'll ever perform "Lemon" because of it. ❤

@@fiercemakeup31 I agree. I’m not sure where Bono’s vocal range is at now. There are times where I just want him to sing more as I think he can. As they practice more I think songs like this have the potential to sound really good even today

The drummer certainly has a powerful punch in general. He does a great job.

Awesome song

They absolutely killed it on this song. I saw it live this evening and I was absolutely amazed. It was beautiful!

Masterpiece ❤❤❤❤❤

Fantastic song. Top 5 of U2´s catalogue, in my taste.

Wow. I can't think of another live song with Edge's vocals so loud in the mix. Love it. Can you?

I was just telling my wife that as Bono's vocals change, due to age and the sheer difficulty of U2's songs, the Edge has taken on a larger share of the vocal responsibility. I think the Edge has a beautiful voice and I'm all for it since it keeps U2 going.

Love,..... Like a screaming flower , Love, dying every hour

really a hell of a performance...they still got some numbers...💘

U2 is glorious

Welcome back after 30 years!

My favourite Song @Achtung Baby... amazing Sound, clear Voices...❤❤❤❤

Wow U2 is Priceless thankful i that I had a chance to see them live,!!!!!

Bram, Dutch drummer subbing for Larry for the time being.

I like that song alot ..shame

The only thing that failed a bit is Edge's chorus in the majority of the verses. I mean, It's ok to join sometime but not in all the song. I couldn't enjoy the entire song

Nah 🤢, compare that to the lemonchille U2coverband. U2 is somewhere wrong on the shimmerparts.
