U2’s 12th night at the Sphere had a massive surprise in the form of a guest joining the band for three songs.
The opening eight songs were the standard Achtung Baby set, and as usual All I Want Is You was next. As Edge played the opening piano notes of the Songs of Surrender version of the song, Bono discussed how the song was his attempt at writing from the perspective of a woman. He then invited the guest artist on stage and Lady Gaga joined them for the song, trading verses with Bono through the whole performance.
All I Want Is You segued straight into the next song, a cover of Lady Gaga’s 2018 single Shallow. The full song was performed rather than the expected snippet, and as the Rattle & Hum section remained at four songs in length tonight was the second straight concert with 23 songs. Lady Gaga remained on stage with the band for the second of those songs, I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For, and she joined Bono in wishing Arthur Fogle a happy birthday. Angel of Harlem remained out of the set for the third successive night.
Videos of Lady Gaga’s complete performance on stage, All I Want Is You & Shallow, and I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For, both uploaded by YouTuber “MR DEAN”.
The remainder of the set followed the established pattern, with Acrobat continuing to wake the Baby after Love Rescue Me.
