It’s been a while since I had a video feature. But it’s freaking raining and crappy here in the Shaolin, NYC. So, what better time to bring it back and go over a pretty cool video and awesome song.

Especially by U2. I love them. Sure. Bono’s way too consumed by politics these days but the lead singer of this beloved Irish band which has been putting out great music spanning over three decades is still one of the best in the biz. He and the equally gifted trio of Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen, Jr. are said to be working on their 12th album. It’s expected to have more of a nostalgic feel incorporating some Jimi Hendrix and won’t be released until this October.

Like many fans, I’m a bit curious. I really enjoyed their last album How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb which featured hits, “Vertigo,” “City of Blinding Lights,” “Sometimes You Can’t Make It on Your Own” and “Miracle Drug.”

For now, I felt inclined to review one of my faves. “Until the End of the World” is just a powerful song with a great U2 sound blending all their talents together. I really enjoy how it’s played and of course passionately sang by Bono. The emotions really come out. Strong lyrics for sure.

I found a good live version of the song off the 1991 Achtung Baby album which has always been overlooked.

This happens to be one of their best tracks and sounds great live off the Elevation 2001 Tour in Boston:
