Unos, dos, tres, catorce [1,2,3,14]

Turn it up loud, captain!

Lights go down
It's dark
The jungle is your head
Can't rule your heart
I'm feeling so much stronger
Than I thought
Your eyes are wide
And though your soul
it can't be bought
your mind can wander

Hello, Hello
Hola!
I'm at a place called vertigo (Dónde está?)
It's everything I wish I didn't know
Except you give me something I can feel
Feel

The night is full of holes
Those bullets rip the sky
Of ink with gold
They twinkle as the boys play rock and roll
They know that they can't dance
At least they know

I can't stand the beat
I'm askin' for the cheque
Girl with crimson nails
Has Jesus 'round the neck
Swinging to the music
Swinging to the music
Woooao

Hello, Hello
Hola!
I'm at a place called Vertigo (Dónde está?)
It's everything I wish I didn't know
But you give me something I can feel
Feel

All this, all this can be yours
All of this, all of this can be yours
All this, all of this can be yours
Just give me what I want
And no one gets hurt

Hello, Hello
Hola!
I'm at a place called Vertigo
Lights go down and all I know
Is that you give me something I can feel
You're teaching me ...aaahhh
Your love is teaching me ...aaaah
How to kneel
Kneel

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

This new U2 single is amazing. I wonder how the rest of their new album will be.

Yes U2 with their new song. It's Pretty damn good but I doubt the album can top The jushua Tree

The video scares me, especially that thing at the beginning (the counting)

great song, better video, as Cratic put it. One little thing in there though is that catorce is fourteen, not four. ;)

Great song...the opening guitar riff reminds me so much of Tired of Waiting by The Trew...it's practically the exact same...either way, cool riff, great song, awesome band

I hate this song. Uno, dos, tres, catorce means 1, 2, 3, 14 not 1234. GOD! other than that, this song sucks anyway. just because its U2 doesnt make it good. its annoying. *hate filled*

"Uh-oh, catorce means 14 and they used it in a sequence of 1-2-3-4! They meant to do it, of course, but I'm going to hate this song for it anyways!" toxification is an idiot. This song rocks.

This song is great! The beginning (uno, dos, tres, catorce) is clever and only hard-core spanish speaking geeks such as yourselves would have picked up on it. It is NOT a mistake, it is NOT stupid. It's just... goofy. These guys have a good sense of humor and they make great music. Any questions?

I used to really like U2, before the last album came out. That one was crap and, judging by Vertigo, this album isn't any better. Booo!

And I thought they were saying onze, douze, treize, quatorze (French for 11, 12, 13, 14)

U2 sucks. I don't see how people can like this song. Somebody should sign U2 up for a spanish class.

This is literaly my least favorite song ever. It's just complete shit. Every time it comes on the radio I scream.

great song. I hope you have plenty of opportunity to scream... there is a lot of power and angst expressed on this track. It is a long time coming because the Edge really needs to air it out more. Fantastic track!!

Finally, U2 is done with making popish albums and back to they sounded like when they did Joshua Tree and Rattle & Hum. And what a great song to kick the album off to! The first time I heard it, I knew that this album was going to be the greatest U2 album in a long time, and I was 100% right.

That's just it...Bono IS crap.

Bono can probably count, but he doesn't want to do it the right way. I might be able to enjoy the songs if he didn't say those stupid numbers at the beginning.
