"see the bird with a leaf in her mouth. After the flood, all the colors came out." yes this song does have connections to the Christian/Jewish faith as written by U2. In fact, I believe in a live version of the song at one point U2 did say "Lord" in the same part of the song where Sanctus Real used the word but since I cannot seem to locate that recording I cannot be positive.
For anyone who is looking for a biblical explanation of the gospel and salvation, I would highly recommend checking out the scribd website that is listed on my channel. The scripture references given on there make it very clear and easy to understand.
Bono, Larry and Edge are born again Christians. Early on they decided not to be a Christian band but to reveal their faith throught their conduct and actions. This is a great cover of a great song. I was directing my comment at U2 haters. Listen to '40' from the War album it's taken word for word from Psalm 40.
@mrmetalcore2019 Sanctus Real is a Christian band. So if someone hated U2 because their music is Christian based, but loved this band, they'd be a hypocrite. I think what they're saying is that they like the feeling or perspective behind it. I can kind of see that, like 'Shine' by Collective Soul. That song is pretty much a prayer to God. But when they sing it, it sounds like the person is lost or sad. But when Pillar sings it, it sounds like they're excited for God to lead them and teach.
Love Santus Real, and love U2; this version of beautiful day I certainly love more than U2's original, its got more expression in it, more raw energy!!
LOL this is quite amusing, you all hate U2 but love it when bands cover their songs, and alot do. Fear Factory, POD, Sepultura, Dream Theatre, Johnny Cash, and many more. The songs must be good enough to be covered. I think it's U2 Christian roots that you all hate, it has nothing to do with the music.
Sorry U2, this version shows you up. You may have more mainstream exposure but Sanctus Real killed you on this one! Come to think of it, has anyone realized that most of U2's music sucks major balls?
@surewhynot19 I completely agree. I've never liked U2. I'm a die hard Who fan, but I started out with Switchfoot, Reliant K, Audio Adrenaline, and Sanctus Real. SR totally shows up crappy U2 with this cover. Very rare that a cover is better than the original, but SR is a good band, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised.
@ves150JesusFreak. yep let U2 do what they do best.....SUCK......all thier songs have the same guitar sound and need a big flash stage to distract you off how bad they really are. Also they are so big on saving the enviroment its takes some rediculous amount of trucks to move thier stage around?
why santus real? why? not sure if i'm fan anymore
this is pretty good, but to think its better than the original is just ridiculous. His voice doesn't compare to bono's, neither does the guitars. The edge's effects are what make it such an unreal song, they just replaced it with palm muting.
its pretty good, but saying its better than the original is ludicrous.
Why does everyone seem to argue about the better band singing this song? Who cares which version sounds better, why can't we all agree that this is just a good song? Period.
a good friend of mine used love this song too death! a very painful song too listen as he is now passed on...R.I.P. Brandon I only hope that you found God right before you end your short lived life.
"See the bird w/a leaf in her mouth, after the flood all the colors came out ....Touch me, take me to that other place, reach me LORD, I know i'm not a hopeless case" BEST PART!!
Wow that was great, thanks guys, You've done a great job of truly letting God speak through you more than you know. This video just helped me a lot, although I can't describe it all specifically to you right now, just know, you are blessed indeed!
I don't know if you know but it's a cover of U2's beautiful day, it was for some sort of charity where people did remakes of, I believe U2 songs but could have done songs by other artist, but if you know that I guess I just sound stupid and then sorry then
haha I got your comment reply ;) t.y. for not killing it =) ... wait it said.. (wait I won't refer to Rentorawr as "it" haha) said that its an interesting "cover?" is that you singing? or just a remake of the origional??
You have never heard of U2? You poor deprived person! LOL
They are the original band that played the song. Although SR's version edges out theirs by just a little, they are an absolutely phenomenal band, one of my faves of all time to be specific.
to be sincere i dont think theres anything wrong with that person, i didnt even know who they were till today. like seriously not everyone is going to know or like what you do, and thats no reason to go insulting anyone, and here you are listening to this song. im sure you dont know all the bands he does so just just it.
Yeah, I actually have to agree. I'm a huge U2 fan, but SR's version rocks harder. Their's is the only version on the CD that it's on that surpasses the original LOL
