    Achtung double talk ! (vhs)

    This video has a very original content: the making-of for the new album, the history of the band so far and all the videos of the new songs! For all U2 fans, it's a must as AB was indeed one of their best album ever! Visually all the contents have also an outstanding visual as ZOO TV had caught early in 1992 all the media storm we live actually with the web, social networks, smartphones etc: we are showered by endless data, some essential, most of them trivial and it's very hard to tell the exact reality! Beyond things get complicated as I understood with the years that bands and especially U2 and especially Bono talk like politicians: they have changed, things are difficult, this is their best work, they have revolutionize Rock, the lyrics are fine parables, doing a tour is excruciating,…. Now, for me, the message is just BS and this new U2 is as much propaganda as marketing as sincerity! Thus I just enjoy the sound which is by the way not so unique because Marc Bolan and T-Rex did the same in the 70s!

    '' You're the real thing.''

    An excellent addition to the Achtung Baby album, the nature of the album is reflected in this video (flash cuts, different film stocks). Contains the videos for

    1. Even Better Than The Real Thing (plus the remix).

    2. One (three videos).

    3. Mysterious Ways.

    4. Until The End Of The World.

    This is a perfect documentry, reflecting the U2 of the 90's
