Let me in the sound

U2 was supposed to release the video for Get On Your Boots yesterday. Apparently, it isn't ready, and you can see why in the "leaked" video: they don't seem to have permission to use some of the graphics, as the watermarks are clearly visible in some shots.

As for the video, I really like it. The opening is (to me) reminiscent of the Pop-era, but I can't really articulate why I think that. I like the video the most when they're more in the graphics, as opposed to in front of them, and I love the "let me in the sound" chant at the end.


[This video keeps disappearing from YouTube. Here's another copy (likely, for a limited time only)]


And just for fun, I'll embed my [current] favourite U2 video ever, for the song Window in the Skies.
