This band took the promise of The Clash that sadly fell apart and made it real, walking the talk. Years ago my wife used to talk about Bono being a poser (Live Aid show in particular) but his actions off the stage speak louder than any words, these guys are the genuine article and I love and admire 'em, I always will.
I was living in Eilat in Isreal at the time, and somebody brought along a video of this new music prog called the Tube, and my God we all saw this fab concert in a bar in the sun in Isreal in 1983. Take me back ther with my Goldstar Beer in my hand and a pretty sun tanned girl in the other.
If I was one of those girls who got to chat about Ireland and weather with Bono, I would have giggled the entire time...and I would still be giggling and blushing, 28 years later :)
@alvaroesrockII I mean, the footage is taken from a song performance at red rocks right? Like some footage is from I Will Follow, Surrender etc. and who's the girl?
My dad almost went there, his car broke down. Everytime we play this song, he always walks up to me, and says "You trying to make me cry?" It must have been a hell of a concert. I wish I was alive for it.
what the hell happened to Bono's hair at 1:32.... ahahaaa!! and I think his speaking voice is the same now and then.. he's still cute to me( even though he's old enough to be my dad.. infact two yrs older than my own :P)
@TheDaddynels1 What the hell happened between 4:25 - 4:31 ?? I mean he falls into the crowd, and without missing a beat rises back up onto the stage like Jesus or something? Defying gravity? look again
@11gll ya subi el video con la parte traducida asi que miralo y bajatelo rapido porque solo lo dejare unos dias luego lo eliminare para que youtube no me moleste por los copyright. al final del video se me escapo algunos cometarios del director de la filmacion, asi viene en el DVD el cual todo fanatico de U2 debe tenerlo
As someone who tries to write music, I can only imagine the feeling these guys must have had when they came up with this absolutely SICK and amazing groove to go with these lyrics. What it's like to just KNOW you've got a worldwide hit?
Does ANYONE REMEMBER WHAT ROCK & ROLL WAS CREATED FOR!!!!
Thank you to all the members of U2 for never forgetting what the heck we pick up an instrument... not for money... not for fame... but for a future not filled with the ridiculousness that is happening right now one the planet EARTH!
Maybe everyone should listen to this song a few more times. Ireland has generations to thank for little people coming up with big awesome ideas like, "Stop kicking our own asses and be the solution!" Peace
i remember seeing sunday bloody sunday on the tube tv programme . live at red rocks , the lads, we all met in the pub later an all said, feckin hell, did ya see them lads u2 live at red rocks. it affected a whole generation, at least in england,merseyside. powerful as feck. god love you you U2 lads. an bono with the white flag

He was a doll back then, even with that hair. It was the 80's, there was bad hair all over the place. I love this video.

What a dissapointment- Bono prancing like a little girl at a gymkana negates the overriding power of the song when heard without the visuals.

That is variation on the Irish folk dance style..
Get some culture man....sorry that Bono didnt fit your idea of how a rock mucian should act on stage.
