U2

In July 2005, U2 was in the midst of their "Vertigo Tour," promoting their album "How to Dismantle an Atom Bomb," released in November 2004. This tour marked a significant phase in U2's career, showcasing their enduring popularity and ability to draw massive crowds, as evident from the live recording of "With Or Without You" at the San Siro Stadium in Milan. Although "With Or Without You" is from their iconic 1987 album "The Joshua Tree," the fact that it remained a staple of their live performances demonstrates the song's lasting impact and connection with audiences. Notably, the Vertigo Tour received critical acclaim and solidified U2's reputation as one of the foremost live rock acts, blending breathtaking visuals with their anthemic sound. The recording, directed by Hamish Hamilton, captures the energy and emotion that characterize U2's concerts, underlining their ability to resonate deeply with fans decades after their initial hits.
