A boy feels pain.
He has so much energy inside, and he risks being crushed under his own anxiety and inner dramas.

Another boy, transforms this pain into a guitar riff, converts it. Shortly after, the rhythm section joins in and the game is on.

A boy tries hard to be a man
His mother takes him by his hand
If he stops to think he starts to cry
Oh why?

The tragedy that changed Paul's life makes him an indomitable fire. A raging river.

From the first notes of their first single, the aforementioned raging river, it immediately sets the record straight. U2 is not just a simple punk band, they are something different.

From the lyrics, their search for escape is evident and I will follow is the perfect example.

I will follow is the only song by the Irish quartet to remain a constant in every tour and almost every concert.

Although it was written as a suicide note by a fourteen-year-old, it is an anthem (one of the many U2 anthems) of liberation, of releasing pain in the form of pure and positive energy.

Paul still screams "I will follow" as if it were the first time.
They are still there, with the same energy and dynamics, doing what they do best.
Keeping the Unforgettable fire alive.

Tracklist and Lyrics

01   I Will Follow (03:37)

(One two three four)

I was on the outside when you said
You needed me
I was looking at myself
I was blind, I could not see.

A boy tries hard to be a man
His mother takes him by his hand
If he stops to think, he starts to cry
Oh why?

If you walk away, walk away
I walk away, walk away
I will follow.
If you walk away, walk away
I walk away, walk away
I will follow.
I will follow.

I was on the inside
When they pulled the four walls down
I was looking through the window
I was lost, I am found.

If you walk away, walk away
I walk away, walk away
I will follow.
If you walk away, walk away
I walk away, walk away
I will follow.
I will follow.

Your eyes make a circle
I see you when I go in there
Your eyes, your eyes
Your eyes, your eyes.

If you walk away, walk away
I walk away, walk away
I will follow.
If you walk away, walk away
I walk away, walk away
I will follow.
I will follow.

02   Boy-Girl (live) (03:22)
