  • @SPEIDERful 2011, a dork called YOU posted alot on nonsense on you tube to a brilliant U2 song, may you die ASAP, your so ugly you would look better inside out!

  • truly one of the best songs ever recorded

  • theres a clip on tube from 70s were a tv dork is saying its not to his taste this music......

  • Bono sounds very similar to the Joshua Tree era in this version. Wow.

  • Hearing BONO,is like having 'an out of body experience.

  • This version and the Rattle & Hum version of this song are just so moving. Almost Spiritual in it ability to connect.

  • @EWLGtoday that is very true.

  • love this

    

  • ˙·٠•●♥ღ.*♫•* ♫♪

  • I still can't get over the fact this was 10 years ago !!

    Long live U2 !!!!

  • Attended the show in Hartford for this tour only days after my sister tried to take her life. A life filled with addictions and pain. I felt so very lucky to still have her with me, standing next to me for this amazing show. When this song began, as every time I have seen U2 and this song begins, I just sob. RIP my sweet sister, I so wanted to take your pain away. Love you forever

  • 24 people have done a very BAD mistake.

  • is there a bad version of this song? If there is...I have not heard it....sometimes it's forgotten in the great catalogue of music U2 has...but to me it's the song that best shows U2's versatility and greatness...no two versions are ever the same.

  • Love this song soooooo MUCH!!! I am a huge Bono fan, and it is my dream to meet him someday :)

  • the best and biggest rock group in history, this is real music!

  • My favorite song . u2 is awesome :)

  • bad is good

  • my fave live moment forever

  • you know what, the first time i heard u2 i was changeed forever, the first time i heard this song, i knew who i was supposed to be..... and thats a u2 fan til the day i die :) thank you bono, the edge , adam and larry for bringing happiness into my life!

  • I hope someday, maybe the last time they tour, that U2 does a 20 minute version of "Bad"...Bono can just keep on singing, and the boys behnd him can just keep playing the perfect rhythm this song has...wide awake....I'm not sleeping...forever

  • @MrMarlinsfan9703 AMEN, MY FRIEND!!

  • Love the bit of "40" at the end. My two very favourite U2 songs!

  • *teardrop

  • @jacksonbrownepuppy I always thougt that "one " was the best song of U2 but now I know "bad" is also one of the greatest songs ever

  • "f I could threw myself

  • @copirodi Hahahaha nice for y... I hope that one day they ll come in Greece again... I really wanna feel that again..That energy in their live

  • Probably the best live song there is. Just that driving drum and bass brings to a head. Amazing.

  • Fantastic song. Fantastic performance. Going to see them live July 5th in Chicago. Can't wait.

  • this is the best performance and version of BAD

  • right now is tough for me! Im stressed & depressed. I try to hide it, so no one worries and ask me questions. But this song, and many other u2 songs, help me feel better. Even if it means crying. So I totally understand everyone's long hour therapy sessions hosted by u2. They can really help you open your eyes and fight through some crap!! thats why I fight when ppl say bad things about them. These are the kinds of things we need more of!! :)

  • @Niesha18C i love U2 and i also find listening to them helps me and i am suffering with depression at the moment

  • @MrDeathrock9 yes they are very theraputic (spell that right?? :) ) they are really great artist, especially in a world where making up words and sounding like a complete idiot is whats popular. I totally understand your depression... i think mines is a mild one, but like house said, "isolation fosters depression". I really enjoy theyre music

  • @MrDeathrock9 Know the feeling very well. Hold on and keep listening, my thoughts and prayers go out to you.

  • good job @paulhewson!! wink wink ;)

  • que buen tema!!!!! aguante u2! aguante argentina!

  • best u2 song ever, hands down.

  • BAD literally saved my life when my ex was abusing me... I am now alive... U2... has changed my life and has been a part of my life in such a powerful way... and spiritually ... with me when my mom was dying,.. words cannot explain the connection... from BOY TO today.... till all the tomorrows... <3

  • @eannelivesinhope I wish I could tell them how much they have done for so many people. Love their music. They have changed my life to! Not in such a powerful way as yours, but still my life wouldn't have been the same without'em. Wish I could just speak with them once!

  • words can not describe the beauty of this song the feeling it gives you is chilling, bono just has that emotionally perfect voice...its incredible

  • My friend thinks he was at this concert haha

  • You listen to 'bad'. It's about bonos friend who was addicted to heroin...fantastic song that always stops me in my tracks. ........compliments of my friend Jussi

  • bono when i die i will live foeveve rthru your your music

  • 'BAD' is one of those rare songs that is perfect . Just like 'KITE' .

    Bono is a genious ..

    PLEASE, U2 NEVER FADE AWAY ... !!

  • Incredible version of incredible song...........

  • umas das canções mais lindas que eu pude ouvir ""bad'"

    a letra a melodia tudo nessa canção é simplismente marcante d+...

    e essa eu dedico a todos vc's apaixonados pelo u2

  • EASY RIDER

    YES Ireland is great but before you go advocating bombing anyone,

    remember all people are human beings

    including you

  • you obviously know nothing about U2 at all, Bono and the rest of the band abhore the IRA and were instumental in helping to bring peace to N.Ireland where i am from. I have been to all the U2 tours in both Dublin and Belfast since the Joshua Tree and can assure you pal that U2 doesn't or never has shown support for the republican movement. I was also lucky enough to be in the Waterfront the night Bono brought together Trimble and Hume, so your talking complete BOLLOCKS you uneducated MORON.

  • @reelycovefaemilltown the hell are u talkin about? the republican movement?

  • @reelycovefaemilltown U2 is my savior!

  • Excellent. Quite resounding and thank you for your thoughts.

  • @reelycovefaemilltown Nicely put.

    Also, I think Bill Clinton, Senator George Mitchell, Tony Blair, et. al helped a bit too.

  • U2 and viva IRA, Ireland willl be always INDEPENDANT, a bomb was set for the queeen of said GB, IRELAND is the gift of GOD...

  • omg.. this is it

  • ive seen u2 on the last two tours but i am still so dissapointed that i didnt go and see them on this tour,i personally do think this was u2 at there peak for live perfomances.what you reckon folks???the debate is on.

  • @nosaj1939 No way was the 'Elevation' tour their best; 'Joshua Tree' was. I got a chance to see 2 of 3 Worcester Centrum shows, MA, 1987, first leg of the tour. I was mesmerized by the music new and old, and there was only black and white stage lights, no colored lights, fancy stages or gimmicks were needed to hear the band that was fast becoming the world's best. Passion, joy, sadness, angst, triumph, all in one Rock show. U2 wanted it, the fans needed it. Pure excitement. U2/We 2 ruled!

  • @nosaj1939 I agree, but u2 will only keep gettin better ! they make you prouder to be irish ;)

  • @nuggieman4 .....im half Irish and very proud to be

  • work of art ;-)

  • What a voice

  • This song, those words, it's me...i'm not fade away, i'm wide awake...

  • You wanna proof of Living God in 21st century? Then just listen U2 music!

  • My absolute U2 fav.

  • My absolute favourite U2 tune! I love it!!!

  • My favorite song of all time. I love how its meaning can change, but still remain my favorite. A few years ago, Bad appealed to me because it speaks of letting all the desolation, etc, go and fading away. Now it speaks to me because I can let all of that stuff go and NOT fade away. I used Bad as justification for developing anorexia, yes, but it's also one of the songs that saved me from anorexia.

    U2, PLEASE play this in New York on July 20th!!!

  • @clappingsoul eigenlijk gaat dit nummer over drugs .... (bad) ik denk anorexia is bad too :)

    groeten uit holland 

  • Comment removed

  • i'll NEVER forget snogging my SOULMATE to this song all them years ago....we even had a little row over the words....i was right ofcourse :) oh to go back and keep him.... and never let go :(

  • Not BAD at ALL.

  • bad song :)

  • there are no words for the amount of emotion this song injects into me

  • Biggest, little Christian band that ever came around. Just listen to their earlier albums, Boy and October and tell me if I'm wrong.

  • @yarxi1 True, back when they were closer to God. These days I really don't know.

  • I love this song so much :')

  • BOSTON, THE IRISH, U2, COME ON, THEY LOVE THIS CITY A special place in there hearts, just like NYC and Dublin. All about the Irish fans. You don't get this excitement in Oklahoma or Kansas City, trust me. The Boston shows always rock in a very special way. "The All Mighty Church of U2." Cheers lads, thank you.

  • Amazing band x x x

  • u2 fans should look up "while the city sleeps, title track", similar big soundscapes!

  • One of the best songs ever written!!!

  • "Bad" is by faaaaaaaaaaaar my favorite U2 song. While Iliked their early material "War" etc. "Bad" really got my attention and have always loved it. For me personally they have never done better.

  • Haha Paul Hewson is his real name

  • @museruls Really? :D

  • This is the first time I've ever found myself with a smile on my face as soon as a song starts

  • a song about how life was in the 80;'s ireland my heart goes out to these boy for standing up and having there say

  • @assfacerz .... dude... this songs about his friend who was hooked on heroine!!!!! .....not how life was bad in ireland!!!!

  • a song about how life was in the 80;'s ireland my heart goes out to these boy for standing up and having there say

  • U got it wrong.

  • I like to think I'm a nice person, but if I knew the people who pushed

    the 'dislike' button, I would be a serial killer ....

  • Dia 13/04/2011 U2 360º São Paulo.. estarei la!!!!! Melhor banda do Mundooooo!!!!!!!!

  • 20 people aren't wide awake.

  • This song has changed me forever.....I was 16 when I first heard this song....I am now turning 40. This Song has the same impacted in my life as I was 16.....I love U2. And I am pretty sure they love me by the great music they contuine to bless us with.

  • @dungbeetlejo That's super cool!!

  • @dungbeetlejo Absolutely....the BEST song EVER Written...my Life's SONG.

  • U2's music changed my life.

  • @Sojournia

    here here

    

  • @Sojournia

    how did it change your life?

    What do you feel when you hear this music?

  • @laci3211 No Oprah moment per se, just a steady diet of "three chords and the truth" since 1984. One Tree Hill and my best friends death in 1987 set it in stone. Life is death, life is love, life is lived. Peace to all....

  • @Sojournia I HEAR YA HUNNEY !!!! THEY ARE THERAPY.xxx

  • @Sojournia AMEN!! this song single handedly made me realize my drug addiction... They opened my eyes to my faults!!! 

  • @DejaVu77777 I do not know you, but I just read your comment. And it is strange, but I smiled and felt happy for you. Hope you do well in your life now. Quoting Bono, "God bless you and keep you safe" my friend..

  • @DejaVu77777 Good for you man! Totally understand this one!

  • @DejaVu77777 Just remember, you didn't get addicted in one day so... "easy does it"

  • @Sojournia Me too.  Love this band.

  • Not 'bad', but the best version is live in Florida on 02/29/92, witch also been released on cd .

    By the way, does anyone know why '7' is Edge's favorite number ?

  • @bonavox11

    i'm not 100% sure about it, but in most of cases 7 is simply a lucky number. (based in many religious beliefs, and if you refer to many u2 lyrics, they seem to be ppl who bellieve alot in god and that kind of things...)

  • pure purfection!

  • paulhewson mmmm is that u bono? GREAT band in their day only a few decent songs since rattle and hum no decent album :(

  • not sure, depends in my mood to be honest. Sometimes it sounds contrived, sometimes the best song on earth! .... is that just me??

  • i posted on the rattle and hum version of this song as the best ever live performance of this song,,,,,,,,but this is a close second with live aid 3rd.

  • @jaon1969 The rattle and hum version is the best! <3 it

  • изумительно! здорово! я в восхищении!!!

  • A powerful and inspired performance of one of the best U2 songs ever. A poignant message, a thundering beat. There are no words to describe what it is like to watch this performed live

  • i´d like to know who are the 20 people who dont like this magical song........

  • bellissimaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

    una delle piu' belle canzone in assoluto

  • Written by Paul Hewson, Bono

  • this is by a mile the best version of this tune..imo. The Live Aid is pretentious. There's an honesty here!

  • @houseof4doorsmc you should listen to the 18+ minute version from New Jersey in 1985. it'll knock your socks off.

  • This song and Heartbreak Warfare by John Mayer the music sound alike. But two great legends anyway!

  • @kimberly1450 Well Mayer said he ripped off Bad for that song.

  • @HyperU2 Who ripped off what? U2 did this in 1985.

  • @houseof4doorsmc Having seen U2 in 1985 for the first time I'm well aware. :p

    John Mayer admitted to copying Bad for his song Heartbreak Warfare.

  • @HyperU2 I'm so glad it's not just me!. Every time I hear Heartbreak Warfare, I end up humming Bad afterwards...Was Bono peeved?

  • @kyegirl2001

    I doubt it. U2 is pretty open to other artists being inspired by them. Luckily I'm not in your boat, I never hear Heartbreak Warfare. :)

  • @HyperU2 he was influnced by the song bad by u2 he did not rip it off alot of musicans are influnced by thier favorite musicans both are talented i mean mayer is my favorite but both will go down in history for being the greatest musicans of out time

  • I was at this show. AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • BAD is actually pretty GOOD

  • @freedumnevafree That's an understatement .. BAD is a fucking great song ..!!

    Maybe U2's best ...?

  • What a fucking band.. U2 is (and always be) definitely one of my favorite bands of all time. The Edge is a fucking guitar god. Bono's voice sounds really good, I've seen recent concerts and it sounds really ugly, they're still GREAT though.

  • Comment removed

  • THIS SON...OHHH WHAT SONG!!!.. REALLY THIS IS A HYMN. THANKS A LOT U2 FOR IT

  • THANK God I was a young woman in the 80s and 90s . U2 has gotta be THE BEST band to ever grace us with their music.

  • @azulthesky Amen...Thank God for U2.

  • ever heard of van morrison when you talk of the best in the world what an island ireland

  • I LOVE THIS SONG.

  • I've probably listened to this song more than any other song ever, and it still has the same effect on me...U2 is the only band I know of that's better live than on record

  • @MrMarlinsfan9703 i think simple minds is in the same case

  • Espectacular !!!!!

  • worlds greatest band .... ever...
