Vertigo es el primer single del álbum How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb U2 y es musicalmente hablando pariente del trabajo de U2 Achtung Baby y también de canciones como Elevation, pero con más carga de guitarras. La letra del tema tiene la singularidad de que parte de ella esta en español, breves retazos.
Letra de la canción Vertigo U2:
Un, dos, tres... catorce
Turn it up, Captain!
Lights go down it's dark
The jungle is your head - can't rule your heart
I'm feeling so much stronger than before
Your eyes are wide
And though your soul it can't be bought
You might be wonder
Hello, hello... Hola
I'm at a place called Vertigo (¿dónde estás?)
It's everything I wish I didn't know
Except you give me something...
I can feel, feel
The night is full of holes
There's bullets ripping sky of ink with gold
They twinkle as the boys play rock and roll
They know that they can't dance - at least they know
I can't stand the beat
I'm asking for the cheque
Girl with crimson nails
It's Jesus 'round her neck
Swinging to the music. Whoooaaa
Swinging to the music. Whoooaaa
Whoooaaa
Whoooaaa
Whoooaaa
Hello, hello... Hola
I'm at a place called Vertigo (¿dónde estás?)
It's everything I wish I didn't know
But you give me something...
I can feel, feel
Checking in
Jumping in - yeah
(solo de The Edge)
All of this... all of this can be yours
All of this... all of this can be yours
All of this... all of this can be yours
Just give me what I want and no one gets hurt
Hello, hello... Hola
I'm at a place called Vertigo (¿dónde estás?)
Lights go down and no one knows
That you give me something...
I can feel your love teaching me
Aaahhhhh-aaahhh-aaahhh-aaahhh...
Your love is teaching me
Aaahhhhh-aaahhh-aaahhh-aaahhh...
How to kneel, kneel
