'With love, Bono & Edge'

30 Jan 202274

'With love, Bono & Edge'

Bono and Edge have shared a performance of 'Sunday Bloody Sunday', complete with a new closing verse.

The acoustic performance captured at home in Dublin comes on the 50th anniversary of Bloody Sunday, on 30th January 1972, when thirteen civil rights protesters were shot dead by British Army soldiers in Derry.

Scroll down to read the complete lyrics of 'Sunday Bloody Sunday (30th January 2022)'

'Sunday Bloody Sunday (30, January 2022)'

I can't believe the news today
I can't close my eyes and make it go away
How long, how long must we sing this song?
How long? How long?
'Cos tonight
We can be as one, tonight, tonight.

Broken bottles under children's feet
Bodies strewn across the dead-end street
But I won't heed the battle call
It puts my back up, puts my back up against the wall

Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Alright, let's go

And the battle's just begun
There's many lost, but tell me who has won?
The trenches dug within our hearts
And mothers, children, brothers, sisters
Torn apart

Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday

How long, how long must we sing this song?
How long? How long?
'Cos tonight we can be as one, tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight

Wipe the tears from your eyes
Wipe the tears from your eyes
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Wipe the tears from your eyes

Here at the murder scene
The virus of fiction, reality TV
Why so many mothers cry
Religion is the enemy of the Holy Spirit guide
And the battle just begun
Where is the victory Jesus won

Nice

Glad to see they still have the spirit. Hey, please can you guys do an acoustic version of 'Bad' Thanks

Sorry...But.....

This is nothing without the percussion. If two buskers were doing this you may stop, listen and say "God love them, they're trying". Nice idea but no substance lads.

Deeply moving

Bono and Edge's eyes Our generation's voice of wisdom, Edge's unmistakable emotion laden guitar And the final verse overlaying immensely moving imagery, Says it all. Nothing left to comment beyond the band's own decades-long plea to humanity; Stop the violence. No More...

Unplugged

I would love to see U2 do an un plugged concert, smaller venue, intimate setting. Would be an amazing time and performance to see. Nick West Vancouver BC Canada

I second the idea of making a bunch of acoustic performances available as an incentive for being subscribers, please?

Sunday Bloody Sunday

Stripped down but just as powerful. Maybe even more so. Bono’s vocals have so much passion, feeling. He just gets better and better. And the Edge, what can I say. Perfection. Thank you for this. Looking forward to hearing it on a record someday

Timeless Classic

This song is a perfect example of one of the many things that I love about U2's music--it's universality to the human condition. This song is about events 50 years ago, in a very specific conflict, and yet, it speaks to all of us, still, today. Thank you, U2, for this classic song. And thank you, Bono and Edge, for this beautiful acoustic version in remembrance of your fallen compatriots. (And, much respect to Larry and Adam, whose drums and bass line I do especially miss on this song.)

Acoustic!

Thank you for sharing this acoustic version with new verse. So powerful seeing the emotion of the song laid bare. A collection of acoustic versions from the U2 catalog might make a nice subscriber gift sometime...
