the fact that this gets covered by every selfrespecting artist shows how bloody actual this song really still is. there s god and then we got U2 . thank s god :)
The song is named after the Bloody Sunday incident in Derry where the unarmed protesters were gunned down. The lyrics are more about how people felt during those times and after that incident. So in a way it is about that day but does not tell details about that day, more about feelings that day had on the people of the country.
who cares about covers? please this was one of the worse covers ever, and dont touch the very personal songs of U2 its political and personal and people tha listen to thses women dont know what the fuck it was about anyway so what a fuckin waste
I actually like this version too you know. Its not fair to compare them to U2. They just did it their way - lent their voices to a great song! Why can't everyone just be happy for that alone.
They sound like two screaming fuckin cats, listen to the words people...I have nothing against english people, I have a lot of friends from our neighbouring country but these people singing this song were not even born when this catastrophe happened.
@chickinlickinfacehen hold on thats not my comment?? i wouldnt even think of the word catastrophe? i must be logged on some1s other computer cos i never heard this song before??
And to all the bullshit about "They don't understand..." blah blah blah. Really ? You don't think they are capable of learning about it ? You arrogantly know more than them ? "They werent there, they don't know...." yap , yap , yap. Mabe we should all stop singing the Star Spangled Banner ... because we were not there and don't understand.
You haters are morons. These comments are so similiar everywhere "Not as good as the original...." blah blah blah. Of course not, that would not even be possible. Nobody expects to be better than the original artist - they are just playing a tribute to the original .. showing some admiration. I thought they did a fantastic job.
this is for a charity, get off their backs they're doing it for a good cause. im pretty sure the know the message. Alicia is a good friend of Bono's so i think they did it justice
Why haters are talking about doing better than U2 They are just singing this song they never say they want to do better than U2 (Sorry for my bad english)
Am I the only one to be a little miffed to see two american pop singers who probably have a very watered down idea of the conflict (or not at all), singing such a song, with such a strong message ???
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
i hate female artists (im not sexest just dont care for most female voices..sry) but this is still WAY better than tha u2 version! haha bono is a fairy bitch with and ego far bigger than his causes and is completely tone def. he kills my ears everytime he picks up a mic.
if you want a REAL cover look for pillar's cover of the same song. They put a heaver beat on it.
as for these two, i don't blame them for putting it in their own style, thats what they are used to. what i do blame them for is song selection... i would much rather see them cover love is blindness, as it would suit their style better.
Most people don't even know what this song is about. Google Bloody Sunday fools, majority of ye love the song bu don't kno the meaning of the song & if ye knew what it was about it would make more sense
Yeah, the song's not a rebel song, it's actually... well, about rebelling against the rebellion. So I guess in a way, it is. A lot of Irish people suffered for the shit the IRA used to pull. Check out 'In the Name of the Father". Great film, even if its story is condensed and a lot of characters are conglomerations of actual people or completely fictional, the story it's based on is true.
mmm... i'll cite bono at redrocks by telling you that "this is not a rebel song" i think you haven't heard the lyrics at all... this song goes against the rebel fights in Ireland, but not taking a real position (favor/against). Instead, the lyrics go further by thinking on the innocents that died and their relatives.
Anyways at concerts, U2 usually stands against IRA.
who mentioned ira, if you think the trouble in the noth boils down to ira and anti ira, ya need to not only read up a good bit more but also wonder why sectarianism still exists?, , , one would have to believe there are a few more issues at hand there, , , , and as for the "not a rebel song" thing, Does nobody get sarcasm!? and your saying "this song goes against the rebel fights in Ireland", does that not mean its rebelling against the rebels thus making it the most rebellious of all?
the english think there the shit going mad over therrorist attack on there country there just as bad ...what goes around comes around sorry to the innocents involved but you live in the fucked up country that is england
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
the english r not as bad as terrorist many people make mistake and many of the english leaders did but england is a very different country now and one of the most multicultural countries in da world.also wat about all the irish who fought other irish over dumb things like religion in northen ireland and before the british came the irish fought which each other wen dey had seperate kingdoms so the irish werent perfact either. by the way i was born and live in ireland
i know my facts i do history in school and do well at it also wat did i say dat was so bad i was just responding to ppl saying bad things about the english now i mean obviously it was wrong wen they took over ireland ect but i was just sayin the british r different ppl then they wer den
Mr Thingy-100% right (or should that be 1690% right?) Island of Ireland is 1 country and anyway we're all European now anyway. Erin go bragh. Proud to be an Irish Prod!
What postives has Unionism had on Ireland North and South..? Unionism hijacks Iirsh symbolism from St. Patricks cross, the Harp of Tara, the red hand of O neill, the banner of the Tyrone Earls (flag of Northern Ireland) the shamrock, Cuchulann the hound of Ulster, the Irish language (the Royal Irish regiment use it in their motto, faugh go ballagh--clear the way. I come from a Proestant past but am fiercely proud of my Irishness. Britain has fantastic history but our destny together is with Eire
@Curly5150 move on u arse. this song is not about the 14, its about the hundreds n thousands. give it a rest. just dont count us scottish as british, cos we fuckin aint!
@Curly5150 no, its actually inspired by the shootings in early 1900`s, summin like 1912 actually, but also took paralells in the 72 case. it`s insp[ired by all these horrible things and more, hence why it`s used with arabic imagery just now on 360 tour. get a grip curly, ya gormless coont!
Jeez guys its just a cover...performed at a charity event for something good. Not commercialized or anything. Of course its not better than the original. That never happens.
Well it wasn't a bad cover I just don't think it was as good as the U2 version, obviously covers will never be as good but sill. It was still quite good.
how the fuck do u figure they know more about bloody sunday than bono ever will, when he lives in ireland, and he wrote the song?.... Your a dumbass. id be willing to bet these duches dont know what the song is even about. did u ever even hear bono sing it live? listen to that and tell me that he has no passion for the song and he doesnt know what hes singing about. your an absolute idiot.

this little slut who is just making money and career by showing us her ass singing this song ,this song which has such a meaning and carries so much pain for the irish(i am not even irish) people.go home and sing your banana songs.fuck you and everybody else who liked this disgusting cover
A percentage of northern ireland wants to be british, and an equal percentrage of N.Irl and the rest of the world wants northern ireland to be part of an irish republic.
I love Gwen but I don't like non Irish people sing this song. As a child of the troubles I hate to see it in my face again, I lived it and I want to forget.
The british had no right to invade Ireland. But to defeat monsters (British armry) we turned in to monsters (IRA), we started killing innocents as a result and created a pointless divide in our communitys. Bono (u2) was thinking of this when he wrote "Sunday bloody sunday" as he says in his biograthy "U2 By U2". Basically we have to get over the termoils of the past and try and live our lives in peace.
let's forget politics for a minute, does anyone else think this performance was really bad? this is nothing like U2 or Daughtry singing Sunday bloody Sunday.. it sounded like someone who does not the song well but singing it.
maybe the rule of law has won, but the Irish republic has lost as a result, the british have no right to occupy any of this country and the sooner they realise that and sod off the better.
who gives a flying a f*ck about celtic and rangers, football is never gonna change the world, its just an excuse to get together for a scrap! you can make whatever excuses you want, and as for all this catholic vs. protestant b*llocks, were all people, the same as! as queen elizabeth said "there is only one god and the rest is a dispute of triffles". Also why did some stupid american cover this song, this means more than all that pop sh*te they usualy sing and they have no right to cover it
what democracy?! england has stolen right of Irish people to have they own country, serbs tried to do the same with Croatia and Bosnia but we won.Ireland is Freeeeee. NEDAJTE SE! Croatia is with you forever
you don't even know the meaning of the word "rebel", and your speech prooves it. Stop spitting shit and go inform yourself before throwing random crap criticism cheaply made... wikipedia will do fine...

Why Would You Want Me To Sing The Famine Song If You Think It's Disgusting :S...This Song Is Just As Bad As It Actually It's Worse. Its A Disgusting Rebel Song.
Look Up Green Fields Of France ..A Song You Should Be Listening To About People Who Fought For Our Country And Died While Doin It Instead Of Listenin To This Pish Bout Few Catholics That Got Shot !!
wow how brainwashed are you? ever had a thought of your own? Babe I can sing and play the green fileds of france off by heart, and beleive me peolpe like you have no right to quote it as you are a bigot and time has passed you by - the world is changing - while you drown in your own bile
if u had any sene you'd know that this isn't a rebel song, it's about bono's take on the violence on both sides, how it disgusts him, and how he wants it all to stop. it's people with minds like yours that keep things like this going, people who take offense at a song they don't even understand
Why Are Stupid Americans Singing This Song :S Stfu Bitches..How Long Must You Sing This Song..Not Any Longer Build A Bridge And Fucking Get Over It :)
bloody sunday actually happened on jan 1972 when the british government sent in british paratroopers to keep the catholics of derry ,who were protesting for civil rights (as they were treated as second class citizens), "under control" when in fact they brutally murderd 14 innocent irish people who were portesting for the rights that they were should have been entilteld to, justice still hasnt given and many "soilders" who murderd that day have not been punished for their brutal actions
the song is about all the conflict that happend in derry between the irish of the city and the ruc many died and also about what happend in 1920 something
i understand what u mean bout how its an orginal but i am a u2 fan and i really prefer some of the covers to the orignal u hav 2 understand that not every1 is gonna lyk every version of the song
I hope the meaning and inspiration of the song hasn't been lost!!

let's forget politics for a minute, does anyone else think this performance was really bad? this is nothing like U2 or Daughtry singing Sunday bloody Sunday.. it sounded like someone who does not the song well but singing it.

maybe the rule of law has won, but the Irish republic has lost as a result, the british have no right to occupy any of this country and the sooner they realise that and sod off the better.

who gives a flying a f*ck about celtic and rangers, football is never gonna change the world, its just an excuse to get together for a scrap! you can make whatever excuses you want, and as for all this catholic vs. protestant b*llocks, were all people, the same as! as queen elizabeth said "there is only one god and the rest is a dispute of triffles". Also why did some stupid american cover this song, this means more than all that pop sh*te they usualy sing and they have no right to cover it

This Song Is a Rebel Song It's Disgusting
RangersBabe1991 3 years ago
if u had any sene you'd know that this isn't a rebel song, it's about bono's take on the violence on both sides, how it disgusts him, and how he wants it all to stop. it's people with minds like yours that keep things like this going, people who take offense at a song they don't even understand

...so Bono shouldn't sing songs about africa because he's not african?
It doesn't matter who sings this song..if they sing it because they understand it and put their hearts into it, then go ahead.

bloody sunday actually happened on jan 1972 when the british government sent in british paratroopers to keep the catholics of derry ,who were protesting for civil rights (as they were treated as second class citizens), "under control" when in fact they brutally murderd 14 innocent irish people who were portesting for the rights that they were should have been entilteld to, justice still hasnt given and many "soilders" who murderd that day have not been punished for their brutal actions
