U2: Zoo TV Live from Sydney

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.

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!

I have been a fan of U2 for about 10 years now. I remember watching this concert on video when I was only 9 and being totally blown away by it, which is probably why I still love them now. U2 are an amazing band and this live performance will justify that. Even watching it through a TV screen and not being fortunate to be at this concert (1. I was only 9, 2. It is live in Sydney )is breathtaking. Bono's voice is a sound of perfection. He sounds better than on CD which is a rare thing with singers. My favourite performances are 'Satellite of Love' (with Lou Reed!), 'Bullet the Blue Sky' which merges beautifully (from one extreme to the other) into 'Running to Stand Still' which is quite a dramatic performance. This song is just great and I much prefer to watch the live performance than listen to it on CD. This concert is the best I have ever seen and if you're not a fan of U2, then watching this concert will surely change your mind-it made me a fan! Bono is a great showman and really enjoys what he does, just check out that 'close to tears' look he has when he's staring out at hundreds of thousands of fans, when singing 'Where the Streets Have no Name'. The concert couldn't finish better than with a rendition of Elvis Presley's, 'I Can't Help Falling In Love With You'. Some may criticise them for finishing with a cover but it's beautifully done and always leaves me with a tear in my eye. Bono slowly walks off stage leaving you shocked, teary eyed and so pleased because you have just seen the best live performance ever.

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.

It's impossible to fully capture the bone-shaking, epoch-shaping, life-altering experience of this tour in person. But this film comes pretty damn close. It's on YouTube in its entirety if you've never experienced it for yourself. The musical high points are many - Running To Stand Still has never sounded as bleakly beautiful as it does here, and the segue from that to Where The Streets Have No Name is spine-chilling. The opening barrage of songs from Achtung Baby is stunning, and what the whole film manages to capture so brilliantly is the overwhelming experience the tour was when you actually attended. Yes, other bands had tried aspects of it this before; but none were doing so at U2's planet-bestriding size, with quite as much on the line as they had after the confusing mishmash of Rattle and Hum. That it celebrated living inside post-modernism whilst also critiquing is a trick that few, in any medium, have managed since. Other tours may have been more ecstatic, but little else has been as revolutionary as this was. As such, this is an excellent document of a moment in rock history.
