In 1987 Irish Band U2 had a worldwide hit with the power rock ballad - With Or Without You. But I like to hear new versions of those old familiar hits and this duo is really great at giving them a new interpretation . - 2 Cellos, live at Arena Pula, Croatia in 2014.
…2 Cellos are….2 Croatian classical/ crossover cellists - Luka Sulic & Stjepan Hauser., but for Roger’s benefit (because he may not be familiar with the original) I’m including the U2 hit too…

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.On another tangent, U2's documentary "Rattle and Hum" has very good alternate versions of some of their songs included, my favorites being those with the backing of a Harlem church choir.

Must look into that!
Always good, & I'm appreciating the cello more & more.

Love it too.
These two guys are so good. I like their version, and of course love the original!

Yes…you don’t have to hate one to love the other…its perfectly possible to really like both.
Lovely. Funny guy. What an enormous audience and location! Sorry, but I much preferred the cellos!

Roger…I’d have been totally floored if you’d said anything different!
