U2 "Window In The Skies" Music Video Collects Music Icons

Leslie Cheung over 18 years ago

The new U2 videos for "Window In The Skies" are both using the same theme - it's like having a stunning walk through the memory lane.

The first version is a music all-star version, with legendary music icons, including Elvis, David Bowie, Jimi Hendrix, The Rolling Stones, Elton John, Patti Smith, Bjork, Radiohead, The White Stripes, Beck, Arcade Fire and more, mouthing to the song. The band only appear among in the crowd and it is quite easy to miss when they do appear.

The second version is a similar touch to the Beatles's "Free As A Bird" and "Real Love" music videos. It shows family or press photographs of the band members, iconic album covers and some memorial locations to the band.

You can watch the videos here now.
