Can't Help Falling In Love U2 had been a major entity in the rock music world for many years by the time they released the ACHTUNG BABY album. Yet, it was this album that brought the band from popular rock act to multimedia force as their concerts began to include the video screen as an important part of the show. Following ACHTUNG BABY was the ZOOROPA album and one of U2's most successful tours, the Zoo TV Tour, in which the multimedia experience was expanded upon.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

This is arguably U2's best concert ever. The band deserves a 10/10 rating for bold creativity and scintillating performances. Complete with loads of video screens of all sizes and blinding lights designed to inflict sensory overload, U2 move through their setlist with raw passion. Having just released their 'Zooropa' album, they combine songs from 'Achtung Baby' - arguably the most influential album of the 90s - with 'Zooropa' and their 80s stuff and they take you on a magical thrill-ride reminiscent of a sci- fi/fantasy movie. This was a time when the band was considering breaking up due to exhaustion and the band members themselves felt that the Sydney concert would be their last. Hence, Bono, Larry Mullen, Adam Clayton and The Edge pull out all the emotion to deliver their most memorable performance in years. They simply set the stage for today's concerts of all genres.

My idea to read all my books about U2 and watch along their concerts wasn't maybe such a good idea because actually i have an overload, overdose of U2 and the band doesn't make sense to me anymore.Between what they want to communicate on their albums, on their shows, what the critics says about their music, their shows, and what i understand of all this, well, it's the biggest confusion possible.I felt the crack happening while reading the BP Fallon book for the Zoo tour: great photographer, unintelligible author, passionate musician but totally superficial and spoiled! For a band who wanted to change the world or propose something different, touring in the most expensive suites of hotels and hanging with models and "people" is at best very unfortunate.I love "Zooropa" album for its fresh, happy, light atmosphere and "Achtung baby" for its industrial guitar sound. We got them on this show but the DVD failed to elevate their music as "Rattle and Hum" achieved. Maybe it's because that their director isn't a movie director but in the end, goose bumps were scarce here: "The Fly", "Mysterious Ways", "Daddy gonna pay" and "Lemon" were the only songs that really touched me! Nb: for the eggs on DVD2, just play the title 4, 8 and 9: you will see a great documentary about the "old" U2 when they were young and innocent!

Watching this video made me wish for a time machine so that I could go back in time for the sole purpose of following U2's ZooTV tour. This is an electrifying live concert, absolutely phenomenal. Bono manages to appear to be connecting with every single concert attendee. Not to be missed covers of Unchained Melody, Lou Reed's Satellite of Love and a very non-Elvis version of Can't Help Falling in Love, plus amazing renditions of both U2 classics like Pride(In the Name Of Love) and Bullet the Blue Sky and lesser known songs like Dirty Day and Love is Blindness. A must-see if you are either a U2 fan or just a fan of concerts in general. Electrifying!

What I think to be the best of the U2 Videos, and actually, of any videotaped concert. I believe it even won several awards for being the best concert of a particular year.The entrance the band makes is outstanding, building with a montage of multimedia sensory overload. The music is great, both the bold rock and roll, and the subtle, b-stage acoustic sets. The encores are each great, too. As always, the music is spellbinding. Such a good concert even one who is only vaguely familiar with U2 will have a great viewing experience.
