Lets be honest, maybe not alot of people like the film, but damn, the soundtrack was one of the best ever assembled.  This song, the main theme for the film is great, everyone has to love this bad boy, awesome song by an awesome band.



Lets all discuss the greatness of this song.  Also, if anyone ha the red vinyl of it, would they maybe be able to post pics, I'm very close to buying it, so yea, if anyone could that would be very much appeciated.


I have the vinyl somewhere! I forgot all about it!

I also have the cassette somewhere. I will have to hunt these out...hope they're not lost :-(

More importantly, it's an awesome Batman song.

It captures the exciting dark energy, tortured existence and mystery perfectly.

I'm not the biggest fan of U2.  I much prefer Prince.  However, "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me" is not only the best thing U2 have done IMHO, it's also the best Batman song and one of the best soundtrack songs of the 1990s.  I agree with Seantastic that this was a great soundtrack.
Johnny Gobs got ripped and took a walk off a roof, alright? No big loss.

Oh, thats awesome Dark Knight, seriously appreciated, plus its great to see others agree about the greatness of the song and soundtrack as a whole, now if only people would come around to agreeing that the film is just as amazing ::)


The hype around BF was pretty phenomenal and U2's song was a big part of that for me.

Actually, lets not forget another awesome song off the OST;



Kiss from a Rose was a re-release (at least in the UK anyway) by the time BF came out. Although it did well in the charts, it didn't get me all that excited for BF.

KFAR is brilliant. It reflects the soulful aspect of Bruce Wayne.

Man, watching these videos, as well as the few for B&R, just makes me wonder why they don't do it now, I'd love if this sort of thing started again with the next Batman franchise.  There's nothing wrong with a bit of publicity, plus both films produced great soundtracks.
