  • the 2007 New England Patriots would have lost this day.

  • It's not their song. Who don't know? It's a cover of "The Skids". I'm talking about "The Saints Are Coming"

  • The 85 Bears would not have beaten the saints on this day 

  • @humptizy50 hahah fuck right ! :)

  • no no no. green day = AWESOMW AS F**CK, but U2 + GREEN DAY well the is no word for it

  • Comment removed

  • sounds like part of house of the rising sun by led zeppelin in the beginning of the second song

  • @wow1022 House of the Rising Sun isn't by Led Zeppelin, it's by the Animals. Led Zeppelin may have covered it but it certainly isn't their song. Regardless you're right. The first lyrics are from House of Rising Sun because of it's relation to New Orleans.

  • I remember this game, the 1972 Miami Dolphins in their prime would have lost to the Saints on this day

  • wake me up when september ends isnt about katrina or 9/11 its a bout the death of billie joe armstrongs dad

  • Did Bono mess up and call "Rebirth" "New birth" @ 5:35 ?

  • u2 is an legend greenday is becoming one

  • the trumpette :/

  • U2 makes music. Green day is acting.

  • @UtwoOneMaster You're kidding, u is good but Green day is god

  • @UtwoOneMaster I grew up with both of them, and they are both as amazing as each other :3

  • 3:37

    the saints are coming begin

  • green day did wake me up when september ends at the start u2 should have done the full song beautifull day!!!!!! :S

  • Gotta show this video to one of my friends. He's fan of Green Day, U2 AND New Orleans saints. If he says he does not like this song he is lying!

  • The Edge...playing guitar for Green Day Songs? :D It was incredible when I found out Green Day was doing a "Duet" with U2 considering im incredibly big GD Fan and I "Like" U2 too..Billie, Mike and Tre must of felt so honored to have a chance to play with freaking U2..

  • Green Day and U2... now i can die in peace..

  • super songs of new orleans

    

  • It must be pretty awesome to be here back then

  • goosepimples wow

    

  • people please stop saying Green Day sold out, its there music and they can do whatever they want with it, so please shut ut and enjoy the Awesomeness that is Green Day + U2.

  • @HectordKing i agree with ya

  • @AislingElizabeth07 thank you!

  • the greeeeeeennnnnnn ddddddayyyyyy

  • "NEW ORLEAAAAAAAAANS!!!!"

  • U2 fukin rocks, pretty epic,

    but .. greenday are so sold out these days, what happened?

    blink 182 didnt sell out ?

  • 180 falcons fans

  • I still get chills watching this and remember back to that time when the eastern half of my state was destroyed and then 3 weeks later, Rita destroyed the other coastal half. Green Day played The Saints Are Coming in Aug 2009 when I saw them in New Orleans and I have it here on YouTube with Billie Joe saying after the song they hadn't played it since the Superdome and would only play it in New Orleans.

  • @ebbette Amen.

  • I remember this was the Saints first home game and they beat the falcons 23-3

  • those thrompets messed up the guitar solo :(

  • @kingx2000 i disagree. but maybe thats just my marching band backgroud coming out lol :p

  • ironic but ultimately irrelevevant and coincedential moment when the video is 9:11 long

  • @kerplunk098 don't go there.

  • @kerplunk098 Totally irrelevant since it was Katrina and NOT Sept. 11th that the song is geared towards. But don't worry according to some nuts W caused both of them.

  • 2 awsome bands how 178 people cant understand what real music is i have no idea must need to turn their hearing aids on i really dont have a clue... U2 are awsome... I loved this song before knowing who actually did this song but hey you know 178 people obviously are not human so hey chin up hope they do some more songs together in the future?

  • i love how it seems so natural when green day performs

    

  • @Kaktusen You dislike cause your a fag,

  • You dislike because u2. Not because of Green Day

  • RHCP! i used to be a greenday fan until i started to like emotional guitar players and musically genius artists

  • I'm still pissed they weren't our season opener

  • Chill inducing moment

  • @sdmestayer ... got it. Most people understand that. U2 and Green Day did throw this together at the last second though. The quotes around your "written" speak to a problem with the whole thing. There are two things that I tear up at, no matter how many times I see it. The first is the end of Schindler's list. Can't really explain that one. The second is this. Try to give people a break when commenting on this. It meant a lot to a lot of people.

  • THERE ARE NO SAINTS IN LOVE, THERE IS ONLY THE GIFT OF LOVE FROM LOVE, OUT OF GRACE AND MERCEY.

  • GREEN DAY + U2 = AWESOME AS F**K!!!!

  • Notice how that is a stadium.. suck it you trannsexual gaga

  • 5:08 2 drummers both kickass..

  • u2 is awesome, Green day is Awesome As F**k combined.... Its like another nuke on japan...

  • WAKE ME UP WHEN SEPTEMBER ENDS <3

  • O: if you squint your eyes and til your head it looks HD

  • @helloguille1 omg it does XD

  • if you were titling it as the concert in new orleans, good job, but if you were talking about the second song that bono sang was Beautiful Day, not New Orleans

  • :DDDDD<3333333333:DDDDDDDDDDDD­D

    I LOVE U2!!!!!:DDDDDDDD<3333333333333­333333333333333333333333333333­333333333333333333333333333333­333333333333333333333333333333­33333

  • whats wrong with billie he looks like crap

  • ... too bad U2 failed at doing "Wake Me Up When September Ends"

  • Hello again 240p ...

  • @sportmusicguy97 its funny cause the video length is 9:11

  • 177 people never came back to new orleans

    

  • i cant stand both bands, but this was a great performance that sparked the saints franchise

  • ok people, this whole performance was for the city of new orleans, it was done BEFOR the saints/falcon game, thats why "house of the rising sun" and other songs are edited for the Saints. you know the football team!!

  • ironic or iconic 9:11

  • BEST SONG EVER FOR ST GEORGE ILLAWARRA DRAGONS BEST TUNE BEST SONG EVER LOVE IT :)

    AND HOW THE HELL DO PEOPLE DISLIKE THIS THERE WEIRD

  • BONNO + BILLIE = MY EARS HAD AN ORGASM

  • @ominona555777 *bono

  • @ominona555777 i believe it is known as eargasming

  • @ominona555777 Bono...

  • 177 peoples didn't see the saint coming

  • Wake me up nunca fue escrita para su padre ubieron muchas cosas k lo inspiraron en ese momento y esa solo fue una de ellas... el mismo lo dijo en el bar de tiki :D

  • I love the energy of this song! and now that I read the comments I like it even more. I wondered why The Saints, now I see it has doble sense, thanks from Peru

  • ummmm, just read just a few comments....apparently either some people don't pay attention, or they are just naive. this song was written for New Orleans, which is why is was performed in New Orleans....proceeds went to help with hurricane Katrina relief.

  • @vittey1972 which is why it is the Saints are comming.......the army and National Guard and Red Cross are the Saints to a lot of people in New Orleans in the time this song was written and performed. This game meant the world to that city. That song captured that.

  • @vittey1972 "The Saints Are Coming" is an old punk rock cover. It was recorded by "The Skids" from Scotland way back when you were 7 years old (1979). It was not "written" for New Orleans.

  • 177!?!?!??!?!? omg nice try bieber >:D

  • Those 177 people who dislike this arent from america

  • Anyone find it funny how the video duration is 9:11...

  • Is it just me or is it a bit ironic that it's perfomed in New Orelans?

  • @ZitrusMyBudgie not really...this was during halftime of the first Saints game back in the Superdome, which is why he changed some of the lyrics to fit

  • Even though the title is Saints are coming, for The New Orleans on the performance? It's a beautiful day!

  • 3:17 WTF mike!!!  good video

  • Greenday, U2 & TROMBONE SHORTY (New Orleans legend) Let's not forget him :) <3

  • @AlovelyMother All hail New Birth and rebirth Brass Band

  • 2:02 he's playing with his penis XD

  • 177 people woke up before September ended

  • I was a senior in HS when this game was played. And I had tears in my eyes when I watched this performance. It was one of the most memorable football games for me and IMO it was way better than the superbowl game that year. I can still mention this game to people and EVERYONE knows exactly what game Im talking about. Oh, and the Saints won that game :-)

  • wake me up when sept ends mean alot to us in new orleans ,even thought Billie wrote it for his dad,it took on a new meaning for us in sept 2005.

  • This song is about his father passing away!

  • @opflitd Haha, no its not! They didnt even write it. The band that has the original song from 1978 is called "THE SKIDS"

  • @Soddsuppe dude, I think he's talking about wake me up when september ends...lol calm down.

  • Two good bands combine to make an even better song :)

  • I love the "Beautiful day " part.

  • is it just me or was it incredibly sexy when billie joe sang "and god, i know, im one..."

  • 6 years later and I still cry when I watch this!!!!

  • Guys, Wake Me Up When September Ends is about BJA's DAD, not 9/11..

  • i hope you all understand that this song isnt about 9/11

  • O YEAH I WANNA ROCK IT WITH THE BEST..... lets march in Crazy Dutch 4ever!!!! THE ILLEST WITH FUNKY FEVER!

  • RULEZ. the one song that made me stuck forever. here comes the rain again... falling from the stars... my two favorite bands ever TOGETHER!!!

  • how the hell could people dislike like o.O

  • @MrTreCoolismine cas they have no hart ,compassion ,nor have any thing good about them ik that harsh but that concert was for the victims of hurricane kristina so that y i say that

  • @acoop777 please if you are going to comment anything thing to me like that, please learn how to fucking spell

  • @acoop777 moron

  • @MrTreCoolismine was osama :P

  • Who DAT!!!!

  • no but this song means alot to alot of people and me also what the people went throught and come out with there heads held hight and keep going on sure inspire all of us.

  • this isnt a superbowl halftime morons

    

  • I never get thumbs up :(

  • @Ripper470 seems like you wont get your thumbs up...

  • ha. bono is out of time. billie joe is perfect as usual :P

  • more superbowl half times need to be like this, no more garbage!!!

  • what a half time show

  • awesome!!!

  • SOUSAPHONE!!!!!

  • NEW ORLEANS!!!!!!! THE HOME OF JAZZ :D FOR ALL THE IDIOTS ASKING WHY THERE IS TRUMPETS IN THIS SONG :|

  • That was PHENOMENAL. I HAVE to go see them live before I die.

  • @ComfortablyPlump13 i saw green day live last year at daren lake it was awesome

  • "When the nightwatchmen lets in the theif, what's wrong now?" Um... I think the night whatchmen let in the theif. That's what's wrong...

  • The trumpets make it 1000x better

  • the saints are coming at 3:30

  • The trumpets and SHIT!!!!

  • Skids wrote a really good song.

    

  • i was there and i still get chills when i hear this

  • " a child on the rooftop, a mother on her knees, her sign reads PLEASE -.I AM AN AMERICAN!!" Who gives a shit whether it's rock, pop, pop rock, blues Blah, Blah, Blah! But if you didn't live that nightmare maybe the message is already lost.. I thank both of thes bands for caring!!!!!!! Love them both for this.

  • @Thecodi55 AMEN BROTHER!!!!

    I lived thru that nightmare and I thank God each day I lived to tell about it.

    The message is still with me to this day, that is, we are all human beings and not deserving to be misled or abandoned by the government that is supposed to be "by the people and for the people".

    After the flood, all colors came out !!!

  • Hes one of the few singers that actually has a good voice when singing live

  • @karlykuran Who

  • @nash100g billiejoe armstrong, i think hes a really good sing er

  • Helping your country!

  • Europeans.. What the hell are they doing there?

  • @MiaLeonora uhm listening to good music and what are you doing here

  • if i was Billy Joe .. and playing live with The Edge , i would stay sit , cuz i just had shit on my pants ...

  • @Unrealturtle the only problem is that there's 2 sort of R&B: the Old, the good, Rythm and Blues, and today's, the crappy one.

  • tre is better, billie is better, mike is better, GREEN DAY IS BETTER!

  • porque the edge hace el solo de billie? marica d emierda.

  • AWESOME SONG FOR THE BEST TWO BANDS

  • You don't need more than this, perfect!

  • what a great concert, i woud love it so mutch if i was there

    

  • Its awesome but everything after 9:11 sux a lot !

  • God... this is bad.

  • @brunofujii Oh.

  • @brunofujii idc about your crappy opinion. so stfu

  • I wonder if U2 will remember this or they'll just think of this as just something they did, their great guys but Im just really curious.

  • @xPo1S0nXs0DaX Well the fact that they wrote a New Orleans version for the opening of beautiful day suggests they did have their hearts in it and it wasnt just another concert.

  • Wake Me Up When September Ends and The Saints Are Coming=Beautiful :))

  • I love the transition into Beautiful Day. Billie Joe, Bono, and The Edge make a great vocal trio up there :)

  • SUPERNATURAL!

  • its not " green gay" at all

  • U2+Green Day = Invincible

  • Wake me up When September Ends..

    ..its ironic they played that and the duration of this vid is 9:11

  • @Jetgui22 but they olso played the siants are coming!!!

  • @MrHatenoobs thanks captain obvious!
