    "If You Wear That Velvet Dress"

    Tonight the moon is playing tricks again
    Feeling sea sick again
    And the whole world could just dissolve... into a glass of water

    I've been good 'cause I know you don't want me to
    Do you really want me to be blue as you
    It's her daylight that gets me through

    We've been here before... last time you scratched at my door
    The moon was naked and cold I was like a two year old
    Who just wanted more
    If you wear that velvet dress
    If you wear that velvet dress

    Tonight the moon has drawn its curtains
    It's a private show no one else is going to know
    I'm wanting

    Sunlight sunlight fills my room
    It's sharp and it's clear
    But nothing at all like the moon

    It's okay the struggle for things not to say
    I never listened to you anyway
    And I got my own hands to pray...

    But if you wear that velvet dress
    But if you wear that velvet dress

    Tonight the moon is a mirrorball
    Light flickers from across the hall
    Who'll catch the star when it falls

    If you wear that velvet dress...

    Sometimes...

    A vecs un pequeño paso puede suponer todo un mundo...
     
    Y 4 letras pueden ser imposibles de pronunciar
     
     
    Ojalá no tuviese estos problemas
     
     
    "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For"

    I have climbed highest mountain
    I have run through the fields
    Only to be with you
    Only to be with you

    I have run
    I have crawled
    I have scaled these city walls
    These city walls
    Only to be with you

    But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
    But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

    I have kissed honey lips
    Felt the healing in her fingertips
    It burned like fire
    This burning desire

    I have spoke with the tongue of angels
    I have held the hand of a devil
    It was warm in the night
    I was cold as a stone

    But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
    But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

    I believe in the kingdom come
    Then all the colors will bleed into one
    Bleed into one
    Well yes I'm still running

    You broke the bonds and you
    Loosed the chains
    Carried the cross
    Of my shame
    Of my shame
    You know I believed it

    But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
    But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
    But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
    But I still haven't found what I'm looking for...

    Stuck In A Moment...

    Stuck In a Moment You Can't Get Out Of es quizás es el título mas largo de todos los singles que ha publicado U2.
     
    Fue el segundo single de All That You Can't Leave Behind, después de Beautiful Day y antes de Elevation. Personalmente creo que no está a la altura de ninguna de las dos, y antes pensaba que no pasaba de ser una canción mediocre...
     
    ...hasta que leí de qué trataba. No se trata de las letras, ni de la traducción de la canción, simplemente se trata de comprender un nombre: Michael Hutchence.
     
    Bono escribió esta canción en memoria de su amigo Michael, líder de INXS por el motivo de su inesperado suicidio (aparentemente las cosas le iban bastante bien y era totalmente improbable un acto así). Al interpretar la canción como un diálogo, un mensaje para Michael, todo cobra sentido y esta canción toma la forma que se merece:
     
     
     
    I never thought you were a fool, But darling look at you:
     
    Bono nunca se esperaba que llegase a cometer tan acto: "Nunca pensé que fueras un loco, pero "cariño", mira lo que has hecho"
     
    You gotta stand up straight, Carry your own weight, These tears are going nowhere baby
     
    "Debes mantenerte erguido, soportar tu propio peso, esas lágrimas no te llevan a ningún sitio" (Le echa la culpa por haberlo hecho, esa no era su solución)
     
     
     
     
    Ahora vienen mis favoritas:
     
    - I will not forsake, The colors that you bring, The nights you filled with fireworks, They left you with nothing 
     
    "Nunca olvidaré los colores que trajiste, las noches que llenaste con fuegos artificiales,(¿)te dejaron vacío(?)"
     
    Bono se acuerda de el, de como le conoció y se pregunta si el hecho de dar conciertos con su grupo no significaba nada para él (llenar escenarios con fuegos artificiales)
     
     
     
    I am still enchanted By the light you brought to me, I listen through your ears, Through your eyes I can see
    "Todavía estoy maravillado por la luz que me trajiste, escucho a través de tus oídos y a traves de tus ojos puedo ver"
     
     
     
    And you are such a fool To worry like you do
     
    "Realmente eres un loco por preocuparte de la forma en la que lo haces" (por cosas que carecen de importancia)
     
     
     
    Oh love, look at you now, You've got yourself stuck in a moment, And you can't get out of it
    "Mírate "cariño", te has quedado atascado en un momento y ahora ya no puedes salir de allí" (tú solo te has metido en este lío que no tenía importancia y ahora te ha atrapado por completo) 
     
     
     
    I was unconscious, half asleep The water is warm 'til you discover how deep
    "Estaba inconsciente, medio dormido, el agua está templada hasta que descubres cuanta profundidad hay" 
     
    (Nunca me dí cuenta, no sé porque no lo vi venir, pensé que no tendría importancia, hasta que descubrí que realmente era muy importante)
     
    (La metáfora del agua es como la profundidad de un rio/playa, pensaba que el agua estaba templada (poca profundidad) pero realmente no era así y era "muy profundo")
     
     
     
    I wasn't jumping, for me it was a fall It's a long way down to nothing at all
     
    "Nunca saltaría, para mí sería una caida, un largo camino abajo hacia ningún sitio"
    (Yo nunca pensaría en suicidarme, es un camino que no lleva a ningún sitio)
     
     
     
    It's just a moment This time will pass
     
    "Es sólo un momento, este problema pasará"
     
    (Finalmente la canción termina sugiriendo que "si dudas en tu camino, si es un camino lleno de obstáculos, no debes preocuparte, llegará un momento en el que el mal trago pasará": la moraleja es que no hay que hacer como Michael y ahogarse en sus propias dudas, simplemente seguir adelante)
     
     
    En fin, que canción mas bonita....
     
    "Stuck In A Moment"

    I'm not afraid
    Of anything in this world
    There's nothing you can throw at me
    That I haven't already heard

    I'm just trying to find
    A decent melody
    A song that I can sing
    In my own company

    I never thought you were a fool
    But darling look at you
    You gotta stand up straight
    Carry your own weight
    These tears are going nowhere baby

    You've got to get yourself together
    You've got stuck in a moment
    And now you can't get out of it

    Don't say that later will be better
    Now you're stuck in a moment
    And you can't get out of it

    I will not forsake
    The colors that you bring
    The nights you filled with fireworks
    They left you with nothing

    I am still enchanted
    By the light you brought to me
    I listen through your ears
    Through your eyes I can see

    And you are such a fool
    To worry like you do
    I know it's tough
    And you can never get enough
    Of what you don't really need now
    My, oh my

    You've got to get yourself together
    You've got stuck in a moment
    And you can't get out of it

    Oh love, look at you now
    You've got yourself stuck in a moment
    And you can't get out of it

    I was unconscious, half asleep
    The water is warm 'til you discover how deep

    I wasn't jumping, for me it was a fall
    It's a long way down to nothing at all

    You've got to get yourself together
    You've got stuck in a moment
    And you can't get out of it

    Don't say that later will be better
    Now you're stuck in a moment
    And you can't get out of it

    And if the night runs over
    And if the day won't last
    And if our way should falter
    Along the stony pass

    And if the night runs over
    And if the day won't last
    And if your way should falter
    Along this stony pass

    It's just a moment
    This time will pass
     
     
    En el video Bono aparece cayendo continuamente de una furgoneta. Intenta levantarse pero no puede (está Stuck In a Moment). La gente pasa a su alrededor y no hace nada por ayudarle. Finalmente, alguien se percata de su estado (The Edge) y le tiende la mano en un gesto de ayuda. El video termina cuando se dan la mano para levantarle del suelo. 
     
    Además de esta canción, en mucho conciertos Bono tambien dedica "One" a Michael.
