Beautiful Day is one of U2’s biggest hits, winning the Grammy Awards for the Song of the Year in 2001. The music video has the band performing and walking around Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris, France.  U2 are finally featured at the end of the runway with planes taking off and arriving with the sound of the boom of the air planes taking part of the music sound.  There is an alternative video that was shot in Eze, France and was featured in a release of The Best of 1990- 2000.

What we like

  • As Bono has described this song is about loss and having joy for what you do have
  • Catch the moment or you just might be missing this beautiful day

Mind Experience

  • We have visited the beautiful town of Eze on the French Riviera which is located close to the city of Nice.  It is perched high on a hill top overlooking magnificent views of the coast line.  Each time we have visited the sky has been clear and the surrounding pristine.  You can’t but help be thankful for a beautiful day with those views.

To think about

  • You’re on the road. But you’ve got no destination.  You’re in the mud In the maze of her imagination
  • It’s a beautiful day.  Don’t let it get away.  It’s a beautiful day
