About This Track
“Until the End of the World” is a song by rock band U2 and the fourth track from their 1991 album Achtung Baby. The song began as a guitar riff composed by lead vocalist Bono from a demo, which the band revisited with success after talking with German filmmaker Wim Wenders about providing music for his film Until the End of the World. The song’s lyrics describe a fictional conversation between Jesus Christ and Judas Iscariot.
[1] The first verse discusses The Last Supper; the second is about Judas identifying Jesus with a kiss on the cheek in the Garden of Gethsemane; and the final is about Judas’ suicide after being overwhelmed with guilt and sadness.

One of their greatest songs ever! Who knew a conversation between Judas Iscariot and Jesus could sound this cool. We ate the food, we drank the wine - everyone having a good time.

Captures the horror of betrayal of Christ by Judas Iscariot through the ripping and haunting guitar riffs and Bono's knowing McPhisto-like swagger of excess perfectly. Here is a picture of the soul of Judas in the final moments made manifest.
