Achtung baby album , to me.
Achtung baby album, the album that marks the re entry of U2 after a pause of years. And it really is another level. ' Rattle and hum ' is back and the dream goes on, and it sounds high,' Even better than the real thing', the musical journey still is and it gains in enrichment as regards possibilities . The album starts with ' Zoo station' and the first lines of the lyrics are more than explicative, they are steps :' I'm ready Ready for the laughing gas I'm ready Ready for what's next Ready to duck Ready to dive Ready to say I'm glad to be alive' The World with the W in capital letter is coming nearer ,part and counterpart ' Until the end of the world'. Everybody having a good time except you. You were talking about the end of the world.' Life can be advertised, piece by piece,as we can admire in the pictoresque cover , but through ' Mysterious ways ', rithme and story it is 'One 'in its entity. It is to say that inner world calls for clarity, new light ' Ultraviolet'. There is a boquet of songs ,' The fly' , ' Who' gonna ride your wild horses', ' So cruel' , ' Trying to throw your arms around the world', ' Acrobat' and ' Love is blindness' that vividly communicates this phase. The sound of the album is precisely measured in the rithme and we can perceive the hard malleability of the metal in the industries. In the new release songs not previously included are now ready to be appreciated in its beauty and arrangements :' Where did all go wrong' , atmosphere of the sixties, ' Blow your house down' ,atmosphere more seventies , ' Lady with the spinning head' , more eighties. Acthung baby is a suffered album, to me, a new level has been reached , the world has been growing and we can do nothing but being part of it. ' From the sky down' is a loyal view of all this.

MORE ACHTUNG...
My first CD Audio Record. It was my Christmas' present.
I thought it was broken, and my cd player was broken too, and my speakers also, because of the first recorded seconds, due the distorsion and the stereo effect of ZOO STATION!!!!!!! jajajaja!
(I can't wait to hear this song performed by nine inch nails, now in 2011)
The Fly was the first single I saw on TV and I understood why this new kind of music for U2, this new style, way of life, and I liked it very, very, very much.
I brought BONO's FLY Sunglasses and they broked last year during 360 TOUR at Sevilla, Spain. I still have them, broken! jajaja!
ULTRAVIOLET was the song of my first grildfriend and me, my first romance!
Pretty times!
I listened the whole songs of the CD at a pub drinking some beers.
It was the first LASER DISC karaoke I saw also.
Vinilo spanish version has original lyrics and spanish lyrics!!!!
ZOOROPA was the first tour I could see on a stadium, here at Madrid, Spain (where I born and live). It was the first concert of my life, with The RAMONES also :)
ACHTUNG BABY OUTTAKES impressed at my soul.
This WAS and IS a GREAT RECORD!
U2 forever!

THE BEST
to me Achtung Baby is the best rock record ever made. Tension, sensuality, power, melody, each single piece is stunningt and fits in the right place. Bono's voice, Edge's passional guitar and the perfect rythm section by Larry&Adam is at the top. Never an album reached this standards of quality and beauty, and I guess no one other ever will. it's simply the milestone of modern rock history.
