By 1990, U2 is firmly entrenched as one of the world’s biggest bands. The 1990s will be a period of reinvention for the band. Their sound will take on influences from electronic dance, industrial and alternative rock music. With songs like The Fly, Mysterious Ways, and One, the ’90s will produce some of U2’s biggest hits.
U2 would receive three more Grammy Awards in the ’90s. Best Rock Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal, Achtung Baby (1992), Best Alternative Music Album, Zooropa (1993), and Best Music Video, Long Form, Zoo TV – Live From Sydney (1994).
The band had two major tours in the ’90s. ZooTV (157 shows) was the highest-grossing North American tour of 1992. It sold more than 5 million tickets and grossed $151 million. While 1997’s PopMart tour (93 shows) attracted nearly 4 million fans and grossed $171 million.
