#U2 #Gloria #RedRocks #1983 • This is Gloria, oh, two, three, four • I try to sing this song • I, I try to stand up • But I can't find my feet • I try, I try to speak up • But only in you I am complete • Gloria in te domine (Glory in Thy Name) • Gloria exultate (Glory, rejoice) • Gloria, Gloria • Oh Lord, loosen my lips • I try to sing this song • I, I try to get in • But I can't find the door • The door is open • You're standing there • You let me in • Gloria in te domine (Glory in Thy Name) • Gloria exultate (Glory, rejoice) • Oh Lord, if I had anything • Anything at all • I'd give it to you • I'd give it to you • Gloria in te domine (Glory in Thy Name) • Gloria, Gloria • Gloria in te domine (Glory in Thy Name) • Gloria, Gloria • Gloria in te domine (Glory in Thy Name) • ....... • The title is Latin for Glory, and the Latin refrain of In Te Domine means In You Lord. (Did you know: Bono's stage name was originally Bono Vox, which is Latin for Good Voice ). Like all but the most scholarly among us, Bono is not fluent in Latin. He did know some Latin words - mostly because of church - and with tape rolling, he sang what came to him. The challenge then was to translate what he had sung, so he left the studio to find a Latin dictionary but found something better: a friend who had studied the language and could translate for him. • This is a spiritual song reflecting the Christian beliefs of Bono, The Edge, and Mullen. Early on, they almost broke up the band, believing it conflicted with their faith. • With lyrics like I try to stand up, but I can't find my feet, Bono is supplicating to a higher power. He explained to Musician magazine in 1983: I had this feeling of everything waiting on me, and I was just naked, nothing to offer. So I went through this process of wrenching what was inside myself outside of myself. • Some of Bono's lyrics and vocals were inspired by an album of Gregorian chants that their manager, Paul McGuinness, had given him. • The music video was the second from U2 (following I Will Follow ) and their first in the MTV era. Directed by Meiert Avis, it shows the band performing the song in Dublin in the same place the October album cover was shot. It was the first U2 video shot outdoors, something they did on many others over the next few years because they liked the lighting. • Adam Clayton played a bass solo on this track, something he rarely did. • Bono (from the book Race Of Angels): I actually really like that lyric. It was written really quickly. I think it expresses the thing of language again, this thing of speaking in tongues, looking for a way out of language. 'I try to sing this song... I try to stand up but I can't find my feet.' And taking this Latin thing, this hymn thing. It's so outrageous at the end going to the full Latin whack. That still makes me smile. It's so wonderfully mad and epic and operatic. And of course Gloria is about a woman in the Van Morrison sense. Being an Irish band, you're conscious of that. And I think that what happened at that moment was very interesting: people saw that you could actually write about a woman in the spiritual sense and that you could write about God in the sexual sense. And that was a moment. Because before that there had been a line. That you can actually sing to God, but it might be a woman? Now, you can pretend it's about God, but not a woman! • Along with Party Girl, this is one of two songs recorded on June 5, 1983 at the Red Rocks amphitheater in Colorado for their live album Under A Blood Red Sky. • Van Morrison released an unrelated song of the same name in 1964. A fellow Irishman who U2 admired, Morrison's Gloria is considered a classic.⭐©U2 • ... • Out of Control • • U2 Out of Control , Red Rocks, CO, U... • Twilight • • U2 Twilight , Red Rocks, CO, USA, 1983 • An Cat Dubh • • U2 An Cat Dubh , Red Rocks, CO, USA,... • In to The Heart • • U2 Into the Heart , Red Rocks, CO, U... • Surrender • • U2 Surrender , Red Rocks, CO, USA, 1983 • Two Hearts Beat As One • • U2 Two Hearts Beat As One , Red Rock... • Seconds • • U2 Seconds , Red Rocks, CO, USA, 1983 • Documentary • • U2, Live at Red Rocks, Colorado, USA,... • Cry/The Electric Co • • U2 The Electric Co , Red Rocks, CO, ... • October • • U2 October , Red Rocks, CO, USA, 1983 • New Year's Day • • U2 New Year's Day , Red Rocks, CO, U... • I Threw a Brick Through a Window • • U2 I Threw A Brick Through A Window ... • A Day Without Me • • U2 A Day Without Me , Red Rocks, CO,... • Gloria • • U2 Gloria , Red Rocks, CO, USA, 1983 • Party Girl • • U2 Trash, Trampoline And The Party G... • 11 O'clock Tick Tock • • U2 11 O'Clock Tick Tock , Red Rocks,... • 40 • • U2 40 , Red Rocks, CO, USA, 1983
