Uploaded by: HyLeRo
Video Description:
The single does not appear on any U2 album. It is considered one of the rarest of U2's regular 45s and was deleted within six months. The song was performed live for the first time on February 25, 1982 at the Uptown Theatre in Kansas City, Missouri. However, it had a short lifespan in U2's live set, played for the last time on March 1, 1983 in Sheffield. It was voted No. 2 in the Best Single category in the Hot Press Readers' Poll. The single also appeared on Rare Rock Collection - Rock Against AIDS, a 1987 compilation released by 98KZEW with proceeds to benefit Rock Against AIDS.

I remember this ... ( 2 months ago by IamZeZetheX)
I remember this video from when I was about 13 years old - I'm 37 now. I saw it once and never again. I wondered if I dreamt even seeing it without ever seeing any evidence of it's existence. Many thanks to HyLeRo and you tube - I get a thrill from the discovery of the obscure.
My theory why U2 tried to bury this song is the lyrics were probably frequently misinterpreted.

All I gotta say is was super cool to be around when U2 was unknown and they were kinda like your own music! That is what older folks can brag about! I am 36 and I still feel young!

This is the sound of of a young U2 awash in The Holy Spirit...The ONLY music that made me WANT TO BE a Christian...

The best song from U2's pubescent years... a brilliant brilliant uplifting spiritual anthem ... one of their best ever releases in fact! - Shamefully however it is virtually unknown, how sad. :)

That guitar phrase by the Edge is up there with anything by Hendrix, Clapton or Page - yet he was probably only sprouting his first pubes around this time, what a man!

This is a fantastic song... can't understand why this never made it on an album (other than the re-released October). If I could only hear one U2 song live, this would be it.
