Gloria (U2 Song)
"Gloria" is a song by rock band U2. It is the opening track and second single from the band's 1981 album, '' October''. It features a chorus sung in Latin, from the liturgical "Gloria in Excelsis Deo". It was one of their lowest-charting singles on the UK singles chart, peaking at number 55 but was more successful in Ireland and New Zealand, reaching the Top 20. AllMusic cited the song as an example of "when U2 marry the message, melody, and sound together... the results are thoroughly impressive", while ''Pitchfork'' said the song "displays some musical dynamism, but its Latin-language chorus tempers its anthemic qualities." Composition "Gloria" highlights bassist Adam Clayton as it features three styles of playing in one song (using a pick for the most part, switching to fingerstyle during the Edge's slide guitar part, and then a "slap & pop" solo towards the end). The chorus "Gloria in te Domine / Gloria exultate" translates to "Glory in You, Lord / Glory, exalt im ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
