It's not better then the original but I was really good..... I hate then people cover U2 song because they usually suck... But Chris Daughtry and his band nail it!!!!!
@muaythai4ko Well, daughtry is good, im not saying he is not good, but i believe many U2 fans would like the edge as well and this song isnt difficult to play, and fyi, the edge did some harmonics to this song, and i play the guitar, so u can just stfu about it, it isnt difficult to play. hahaha, and i scared u will be the one who get boo-ed dick head
@DirtyFret well dumb ass... comparing the two should not even be in this question at all, if you respect them as musicians, let alone talk about their skills. Since you're so confident w/ your skills, let's us see it then. I (we) can't wait to see your awesomeness music video.
Wow! That was a great job by the whole band. Chris has a great rock voice, great projection with clarity. This version was no slight on the original, it was a compliment. Pretty good job for a jam session in a studio. Well done!!
I'm not in love with the guitar tone or technique, but good energy overall. Very fine vocal performance, especially the backing vox (which have to be outstanding to do U2). That simple bass line is infectious - just like it ought to be.
@iGLoCKeDYoU who the fuck you talking to like? listen to the origional you daft cunt, this is fucking bollocks, daughtry is bollocks, youre bollocks, your mam has bollocks, fucking come on then, COME ON THEN! exactly you daft fuck, fuck off you sad sad little fucker
@gavofleon dude what is your problem? They are paying tribute and you trash them. They did a good job. If you don't like the cover why are you listening to them and bothering to comment? Do you not have a life?
Wow! First time seeing and hearing this. Man, how did Chris remember all the words to this song. This version was a tribute to U2, not a slight. Chris even said U2 was one of their favorite bands. Josh Steely (lead guitarist) may not be Edge, but he played his part of guitar licks pretty well. Remember, they played this version in a studio live. I think it was pretty good for a jam session. Enuf (sic) said.
They are not copying it they were paying tribut to it cause they like U2 and for everyone that is so fucking stuck on politics about this song and Ireland get over it I hate politics it's just another way for someone to bitch
to be fair i hATE U2 they fund the IRA and hmmmm u think thts right errr NO also the song about tragedy in ireland should not be sang by a person who never knew the pain of wat the song is about
my personal opinion not to be takin like it matters jus how i feel about totalitarianism its jus like hitler all over again with these IRA assholes wanting to rule the country by force and death
I read the comments first with all the usual bullshit and watched the cover after. I never heard of this band. This is a great cover. The only thing is I usually prefer when the cover differs more from the original, but just a personnal taste.
I am a die-hard U2 fan and I LOVE this! I also am a huge Daughtry fan- and the merge of these 2 are incredible. Yes- Chris's voice is better- but Bono has the X factory which makes him untouchable. Bono's emotions take over and we forgive his voice when he struggles. LOVE this clip- thanks for posting
people....just appreciate the music. get off your political high horse or any other bullshit. great cover....daughtry is one talented m'fer. Bono can keep trying to save the world, but this man is trying to make a living. Major ups Daughtry!!
@nomardll769 I'm sure they would. They're humble like that. But seriously, Chris's vocals FAR outshine Bono's. Just sayin'. And I AM a U2 fan...just like Chris's voice way better.
This was phenomenal!!! I have been a U2 fan for almost 25 years, and if I could pick ANYone to cover U2....it is this man right here. Many have tried....no one has succeeded....until now....that is. Totally blown away is what I am right now. :)
@zootv22 I'm not dissing his singing, I'm dissing his personality. They even did a report on one of those news expose shows (ie 20/20, 60 Minutes, etc.) about how his "charities" are a sham that piss away the money they raise to help people, and about how the only time there's any real promotion done for them coincides with a U@ album or tour. Yes, he's a decent singer. But he's also a douche bag who doesn't deserve my respect.
Actually the 60 minutes show wasn't to expose him, it was to show how his charities are helping. Now what charity have you started my dear friend? Bono is not committing fraud, and gaining off of these charities, or they would have busted him by now.
And on a final note, how do you know that Bono was on all this stuff? Either you watched it because you're so focused on hating the man, or you just overheard it and think you know what it was actually about. Either way, get a life!
@rtonyb7 "nor good"? What? You're a fucking idiot. They did this fantastic. Bono is no Daughtry either. = Some songs Chris does- Bono wouldn't be able to do as well, ya fuckin moron.
obviously you can sing, however please ,when performing a classic song, research the product!!! you need to listen to and view the Red Rocks version about a hundred times, then and only then can you sing that song. You are brilliant, use your brain man.
Too many losers in this world. If anyone thinks the intention was to make the song better than you're an idiot . It's paying tribute to a song and band they obviously respect . If you think it's better that's awesome, if you don't that's ok too. Just shut the fuck up all you pompus U2 fans who think it's blasphemy for some band to cover the almighty U2. I'm a U2 fan by the way. I've seen them 14 times in 4 different countries on 2 continents. I like the original but I thought this was cool.
@Hallucination I agree i've seen the band and i'm a massive fan and it makes me happy to see that bands respect U2, it makes you feel good to know that U2 are seen as an inspiration to people.
@Hallucination i can never understand people who put down a band when all they are trying to do is pay a tribute makes no since funny thing is i have seen other fools slate u2 for doing the same thing
I love the original and this just blew me away wow, didnt think it could ever be covered well but this is well the original aint even in the same league wow
i dont think they aspired to outdo u2. they just wanted to tribute the original and their version is very good. not u2's but its very good for a cover.
For those dissing this saying nothing can be better than the orignal.....they were'nt trying to be, it's a COVER....duh! And quite a decent one at that IMO.
omg I can't stop listening to this now!! they made this song a million times better.. with Chris's voice <3 <3

We eat and drink while tomorrow they die!
The real battle yet began (Sunday, Bloody Sunday)
To claim the victory Jesus won (Sunday, Bloody Sunday

I am a die-hard U2 fan and I LOVE this! I also am a huge Daughtry fan- and the merge of these 2 are incredible. Yes- Chris's voice is better- but Bono has the X factory which makes him untouchable. Bono's emotions take over and we forgive his voice when he struggles. LOVE this clip- thanks for posting

people....just appreciate the music. get off your political high horse or any other bullshit. great cover....daughtry is one talented m'fer. Bono can keep trying to save the world, but this man is trying to make a living. Major ups Daughtry!!

@christmasladyx Pffft! Chris and the band would totally disagree!!! Though, this is the best U2 cover EVER!
nomardll769 1 year ago
@nomardll769 I'm sure they would. They're humble like that. But seriously, Chris's vocals FAR outshine Bono's. Just sayin'. And I AM a U2 fan...just like Chris's voice way better.

This was phenomenal!!! I have been a U2 fan for almost 25 years, and if I could pick ANYone to cover U2....it is this man right here. Many have tried....no one has succeeded....until now....that is. Totally blown away is what I am right now. :)

It takes a lot balls to cover U2 and sound this good.
I've been a U2 fan since the '80s and these guys nailed it...weaving in their own style...not trying to replicate the song completely. It's Awesome!

This comment has received too many negative votes show
Fuck you "he's no Bono" he sounds even better, and he's not a self-righteous, phoney charity abusing asshole. Bono's no Chris Daughtry.

I get that you liked Daughtry's performance but I don't think there's a need to trash Bono in doing so.
zootv22 1 year ago 2
@zootv22 I'm not dissing his singing, I'm dissing his personality. They even did a report on one of those news expose shows (ie 20/20, 60 Minutes, etc.) about how his "charities" are a sham that piss away the money they raise to help people, and about how the only time there's any real promotion done for them coincides with a U@ album or tour. Yes, he's a decent singer. But he's also a douche bag who doesn't deserve my respect.
KaiserSoze679 1 year ago
Actually the 60 minutes show wasn't to expose him, it was to show how his charities are helping. Now what charity have you started my dear friend? Bono is not committing fraud, and gaining off of these charities, or they would have busted him by now.
And on a final note, how do you know that Bono was on all this stuff? Either you watched it because you're so focused on hating the man, or you just overheard it and think you know what it was actually about. Either way, get a life!
nomardll769 1 year ago
it's not bad, nor good.
it's legit.
it's a cover people. yeah, he's no bono. and they're no adam,larry, or the edge.
they need an extra guy.. haha.
but it's not bad.

@rtonyb7 "nor good"? What? You're a fucking idiot. They did this fantastic. Bono is no Daughtry either. = Some songs Chris does- Bono wouldn't be able to do as well, ya fuckin moron.

obviously you can sing, however please ,when performing a classic song, research the product!!! you need to listen to and view the Red Rocks version about a hundred times, then and only then can you sing that song. You are brilliant, use your brain man.

Too many losers in this world. If anyone thinks the intention was to make the song better than you're an idiot . It's paying tribute to a song and band they obviously respect . If you think it's better that's awesome, if you don't that's ok too. Just shut the fuck up all you pompus U2 fans who think it's blasphemy for some band to cover the almighty U2. I'm a U2 fan by the way. I've seen them 14 times in 4 different countries on 2 continents. I like the original but I thought this was cool.

daughtry is a good band, this just shows how difficult U2 is too follow... U2 is in a different strata of music than 99.9% of the bands out there.
