THE BEST PERFORMERS EVER

Review Score: (10/10)
Having recently been lucky enough to see U2 at home in Ireland on the Elevation Tour (at Slane Castle), I just want to emphasise how brilliant they are live, and on this cd. Most of these songs were performed at the concert, and listening to the cd, you don't think they can sound any better... but they do when you hear them live in an open field full of 85 000 die-hard Irish fans. (who know every breath, guitar riff and word) =)

So buy this cd, and begin to experience their pure talent and utter genius- evident on songs such as the perfect 'With Or Without You', the haunting yet serene 'All I Want Is You', the mesmerising 'Where The Streets Have No Name' (brilliant, although Bono hates its beginning) and the best anthem ever, 'Sunday Bloody Sunday'. Once you have heard this collection of songs, you will HAVE to see them live to experience them in an even better way. The only downfall will be that it cannot last forever. =)
