U2

On March 5, 2009, U2 took the stage on "The Late Show with David Letterman" to perform their uplifting anthem "Beautiful Day." This performance came shortly after the release of their acclaimed album "No Line on the Horizon" in February 2009. At this point in their career, U2 was still riding the wave of their 2000 album "All That You Can't Leave Behind," which revitalized their sound and led the band to new heights of popularity. What’s interesting is that this live performance occurred just days before the highly anticipated start of their world tour, showcasing their new music to eager fans and reuniting with the vibrant energy of the live audience. Not only did this moment mark a significant milestone for the band, but it also exemplified their ability to connect with listeners through powerful lyrics and an electrifying performance.
