The iconic group gave an electrifying performance, as their set was first projected onto the exterior of the awe-inspiring venue before cameras took viewers inside the space. Once fans got an inside look at the "With or Without You" band close up on the stage, the frontman gave a commanding performance while strobe lights and visuals were synchronized perfectly to the song's beat.
As Bono repeated, "Atomic City / Atomic City / Atomic Sun for everyone / For everyone," it's as if he was inviting the Grammys audience to join them at Sphere.
This year's award show is being held at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, but fans didn't need to be in L.A. or Vegas to catch a glimpse of U2's incredible residency show.
