''The Unforgettable Fire'' is the fourth studio album recorded by Irish rock band Music/{{U2}}. It was released through Island Records on 1 October 1984.

The band didn't want to be written off as yet another ArenaRock band.
What was intended to be a month-long recording session at Slane Castle in County Meath dragged on into the summer, and moved to Windmill Lane, Dublin.
Although the album hit a roadblock in their native Ireland, only reaching #53 on the album chart there, it roughly matched the numbers for ''[[Music/WarU2Album War]]'' in the United Kingdom (double-Platinum, #1 on the OCC album chart) and the United States (triple-Platinum, #12 on the Billboard 200 album chart).
The album spawned two singles: "Pride (In the Name of Love)", and the TitleTrack.

And "Pride", a song that saluted American civil rights legend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., would be their first pop hit there, reaching #33 on the Billboard Hot 100.
The album was remastered for its 25th anniversary, released through Creator/MercuryRecords on 27 October 2009. Four different versions were released, including a new vinyl album; the remastered CD release; a deluxe CD collection with a bonus CD of B-sides and live tracks; and a limited edition that added a DVD and a hardback book.
