  • if that herior hovers whit an poackeg i belive de package burns one of the best song f them

  • what are the special effects???

    but i love this song:D

  • the special effects were the planes and tanks. roughly 4 of those clips were real, as the shots where the planes dropped supplies, that was a helicopter. New orleans received next to no help for quite awhile. Green day was pointing out the fact that those event are what should have happened to help fellow humans, with the sign at the end. Also, every single jet was edited in.

  • Omg, how the hell do the us goverment have money for all those airplanes, from what i saw, that was just some from the home airforce, and that was like 3 times more than the entire danish airforce together. im from denmark so thats why im posting it.

    but somehow they have that much more money to spent on military that us europeans :)

  • alot of those planes were edited into the clip

  • Please tell me that's sarcasm?

  • LOVE IT!!!

  • I think Green Day And U2 Are the greatest bands now

  • what cd is this on?

  • Wats the difference between this one and the non extra special effects version??

  • It must the the extra special effects!

  • duh! like wat??

  • there is a few differences - but it's mostly a few little scenes ie the tanks arriving in new orleans.

  • god vid! but i think Billie Joe sings better than Bono

  • The both are great singeres but Bono has that special scratchy voice that matches perfectly with U2 songs, billie joes voice matches Green day songs.

  • okokokokokokokokokokok

  • most amazing combo in the world! what they did for the Katrina victims was incredable.

  • I agree with you g1rlpunker.

    :D

  • :D yay finaly somebody agrees with me!!!

  • :D!

  • I agree with you too!! :D

  • Sweet! :D You guys rock! Thanks for posting the vid universalmusicgroup!!!

  • Green Day donated all of the iTunes proceeds from the song,"Boulevard of Broken Dreams" as well, to the American Red Cross for Katrina aid efforts.

    Wow, Green Day and U2 make a great team. No kidding :]

    Grateful they did what they did to help all the Katrina victims.

  • This song is a very good variation of "House of the rising sun" of the Animals.

  • unfortunately, our laws would've never allowed this....US military troops can't be deployed on American soil (unless were invaded). other then that, it's national guard ONLY. However, i do agree Bush didn't really do much to prevent the catastrophe, nor did he react quick enough.

  • I hate to do this, but a human being cannot prevent a natural disaster, not to mention it's the French's fault the city was built under the water level. And Bush ordered FEMA into action before the storm hit, but the Louisiana governor told the President they would not be needed.

  • Tinytank22 , you win for being educated. Thank you

  • shame it took the saints to get to the superdome

  • hehe nice vid :D

  • U2 were also involved... how come they havent been mentioned?

  • Love this video !

  • Boondock saints 2 trailer song =D

  • fuck yerrrhhh xD

  • no its a snigle :P

    amzing song i never liked u2 untill this song green day ftw :)

  • is this song on the american idiot album?

  • no it isnt

  • i went to see u2 in the millenium stadium

    its like chocolate and cookies - 2 amazing things and then they invented chocolate chip cookies and they were amazing like this

  • The same fantastic scenario didn't happened again in Athens!

  • Fairly subtle, wasn't it.

  • Billie is so hot :)

  • yer but it looks like he just got up at the begging but u right he is fkin hot

  • pay attention to the MUSIC not the people playing it.

  • U2 destroyed Croke Park for one freaking concert!!! But It'll be a good concert!! x)

    Combination of the best 2 bands in the world!! What a song!! Btw it was Green Day's idea to do this and not U2's so yea, I just don't like U2 getting the credit for Green Day's idea

  • ♥

  • i love billie joe's hair!!!!!!!!!lol and i agree with Rukiaqueenofmanga his voice is awesome at 1:17!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • what voice, oh the one he has had since the early ninties?

  • ya i love his voice then but i always love his voice!

  • lol 80s

  • the bass in this song is great, and so is Billie Joe's and Bono's singing

  • I'm OK with you Rukiaqueenofmanga ! This Voice is So Cute ! But it's Billie Joe and he's always cute ( And Trash of Course ^^)

    J'adore cette chanson !

    Ca fait le bonheur de tout les fan de U2 et GreenDay ( Moi en l'occurence) =D

  • i remember my friend told about this song. its kool how bono decided to help them out with the song.

  • Comment removed

  • WOW Billie looks so young

  • J'adore ce son =)

  • i LOVE billies joe's voice at 1:17! ♥

  • juste enorme <3

  • omg this is the first time i listen to this song....i love it

  • awsome song!!!!!!!

  • great song i like u2 and greenday

  • It's good that the planes are bringing food and helping but they droped it in the water at 2:25

  • true

  • fine then no1 complain........

  • lol 0.15

  • LOL ?

  • They're not stealth planes, smart one. They're Harrier Jump Jets which can take off vertically and hover so they can drop supplies.

  • Its not supposed to be real smarty its saying u can use weapons of war to save lives instead of take them.

  • love green day and this song, u2 is great too.

  • awesome...........

  • i cryed the 1st time i saw this

  • how the fuck am i a fag if u dont care that thousands of people died during this its ur problem

  • whatever...no need to tell us all bout your emotional problems...thousands of people wouldnt have died if the saints were so slow in coming to save people...

  • plain and simple u r a HATER.

  • I remember when they played at the super dome i was 20 maybe 35 miles and i could here the people screaming that was a good year cause we almost won the nfl championship but we lost to the bears only because it snowed.

  • Kinda Wierd, By dad is a u2 guy and i'm a Green day fan. Both Bands combined = A good song.

  • Me too!

  • 2 awsome bands toghether, how could this video don`t be awsome!!

  • then your def

  • i cant hear wat billie joe is saying in the beggining

  • hes saying "there is a house in new orleans they call the rising sun. its been the ruin of many a poor boy. and god i know im one." its the beginning of the house of the rising sun, famously recorded by the animals

  • bob dylan's version is way better than animal's vers.

  • this is good

  • grate song but it is so short

  • "Great"

  • nty. these annoying spams needs to stop.

  • both bands have a different "style" so you cant compare them like that

  • good call

  • Exactly.

    It's sort of like comparing Slash and Zakk Wylde. You can't do it. They both have different styles of playing. They're both great. As is Green Day and U2. =]

  • Aactually Zakk and Slash are very similar guitar players, well, sometimes, beacause Zakk also have that blues-like sound

    And U2 and GD are also very similar..

  • I stand corrected. A lot of the time, not all, they do sound different though, wouldn't you agree?

    They may sound alike most of the time but not all the time, by any stretch of the imagination.

    =]

  • Fuck you U2 Kicks ASS... Especially yours

  • can everone just stop with the whole "U2 is better than Greenday no Greenday is better" thing. U2 and Greenday are both AMAZING bands with GREAT songs. So you should all just shut up and recognize that.

  • great video concept.

  • guys quit with the spam. the comments are meant to voice your opinion on the video, not to promote some stupid ringtone website.

    ....and you are the biggest crap ever ooooooownd

  • W GREEN DAY!!!

  • i love this song.

    I remember when it first came out.

    It was sad.

    I felt so bad about the new orleans..

    But this Song is AMAZING!

    I LOVE IT!

  • love thisss

  • Great song!!!

  • Such a powerful video...

  • Did you guys know Bono is the biggest crap ever?

  • HAHAHAHAHA  he is the biggest crap ever!

  • AMAZING! i love that song!

  • the begining was house of the rising sun

  • Kick ass song =D Green Day Rocks!!!

  • Bono kicks ass!!

  • south park FTW :P

  • i love when good artist work together

  • I Liked this video, here's why:

    i'm not a fan of green day and i think that Bono is up his own ass i mean if he wants to tell presidents and kings how to handle their countries wealth he should just run in his own country for public office, but that's another story altogether, so back to this video, well it's simple, CGI footage of stealth planes, cool ass choppers and tanks, helping people in need with machines usually used to hurt people = cool

    though this stuff probably cant be done for real

  • were r the fx

  • amazing

  • P.S.

    Holy crap every1 just ENJOY THE SONG and stop arguin over political issues. THE SONG KICKS ASS!

  • This song is really powerful. In school, we had 2 pick a worldwide issue, and I chose war nd I chose this song for my slideshow. Everyone was crying.

  • they posted this vid twice

  • long live Stuart Adamson from the Skids Big Country the edge always rated him and the guitar is pretty much same as original awesome!

  • I dont really like Green day but this song was one of the best song I've ever heard and like most of there other songs if you listen to the words you can get what they are talking about but I think the music vid showed that. That song rocked!!!!!!!

  • awsome this song rocks.

  • Awesome song and video! Five stars quality!

    Greetings from Macedonia!

  • Stuart rules!~~

  • Tony Blair Ditched UK after puttin them to war with IRAQ. Bush is gunna do the same to America. They both are bastards.

  • I agree.

  • Does nobody actually realise that Blair was one of the best P.M's the UK has evr had!

    Yeah they went into Iraq without W.O.M.D. but they got rid of one of the world greatest threat towards surrounding countries and the west...If they wern't careful we'd have another Hilter...just Saddam killing inocent people. The war was a good thing overall!

  • You are such a hypocrite demofwigan, It's alright what Blair did, but not Bush. You are a foolish person, speaking out of both sides of your mouth. HYPOCRITE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    They should both be pulling out troops by now. We went in there to help them set up a free government, we achieved this goal, now it's time to help the people in their homelands. Americas unemployment rate is the highest in years. It's only because New Oreleans are black and poor that they didn't get the help.

  • Hey jack ass, you might want to get your facts straight and do a little research. domofwigan is saying the right thing in his comment. And we aren't in the war for the reason you are stating, that was only part of it. A major economic reason is that we are under control of the OIL in the middle east. If the terrorists get a hold of that after we left, economies all over the world would be suffering.

  • ybsquare.....

    Sure it's about oil, but it's about terroism too. We went into Iraq to find Saddam Husain, well we did. He was tried and killed. We also went there to teach them democracy, which we did. Is it our responsibilty, to stay there until the rebels die down. War has been going on in the M.E. for 1000's of years, are we suppose to stay there that long?

    And as the oil problems go, why do you think we are trying to create a car that runs mostly on electricity. We need to get out!!!

  • Comment removed

  • FIRST OFF we put Saddam in Power 12 years ago SECOND Saddam didnt like the terrorist because they threaten his power so he hadem killed we went to iraq because he wanted to finish what his dad started and if it wasnt for Bush we wouldnt have this recession right now

  • Burntcerels.

    I agree with you totally. Bush put us in this recession, now he needs to do something to get us out. Not just by giving little stimulus checks, that wiil maybe fill up your car a few times, or buy a few weeks of groceries, or pay a few bills, but that's not enough. He put us in so much debt, more than we'd ever seen before. He did want to finish what his dad started, well he got Sudam, now it's time to get out and fix our own country.

  • umm.. dude Saddam had been in power for a bit longer than 12 years.

  • I agree with you, just a correction that Saddam become president because he was vice-president and the president resign, what the US did during Regan's administration was to support his dictatorship. (so ironicly US destroyed the borning democracy in Iraq in the 80's)

  • so new orleans is the only reason the unemployment rate is high because of the black people there? um hell no there are successful black people and poor white people

  • One thing I like to add is that U2 and Greenday playing this song together, and giving all the proceeds to the victims of Katrina is the most unselfish thing to do. They sounded great together. I don't believe it would be as good without U2.

    Oh, and I can't wait until Bush is out of office. I'm not sure he'll be able to show his face in public for the debacle he made of the office of the Presidency. Even Colon Power resigned because of him. Gives us all something to think about.

  • Espectacular como todas las canciones de U2..

    Green Day esta muy bueno pero su nivel no llega a los talones de la banda mas grande de todos los tiempos.. U2

  • I Have never heard this Green Day song is it on their CD?

  • What !?
