Which bands would that be? It's such a uniquely Irish, and personal song, that 99% of other bands would have no interest in writing or performing it. Why does RUclips breed such crass comments?
@@sillysausage4549 I’m talking about the calibre and quality of the record. Not some parochial little tune, should you wish to view it that way. Why are some people so narrow in their world view on RUclips?
@@billzer9102 Your not seeing my point either are you. Bands spend their whole career trying to write one song this good. For U2 it’s their opening track, yes I know where they are. But I’m talking about their song writing skills. I saw them in Vancouver in 2017, the roof blew off then too with this track.
@@SuperBlackted I still don’t think you realise what I’m talking about. You need to understand Irish history a little more. They are playing in croke park, without going into it too much. There was an event that took place in that stadium in 1916 that is referred to as Bloody Sunday. There was also an event in Derry in the 60’s that was also known as Bloody Sunday. All I’m saying is, that is why this track was their opening track in this stadium. It had huge relevance. If your not Irish your not really going to understand it. I do get your point, U2 have written a shitload of good songs.
@@maritighe5674 I understand! I was in my late teens during the disco era in the latter part of the '70s. It so oversaturated the airwaves that I detested the music for decades thereafter. However, I have recently taken the time to listen to it again, and have a greater appreciation for it. But that's just me. A lot of people still hate it. ; )
Best opening ever for the best band ever! I saw this concert three different locations and each time it started the same way but every time was amazing.
The way Larry concentrate and start immediatly just a few second after the end of the waterboys music is huge ! And the magic of U2 is there for the show
I finally got to see them on this tour at Adelaide Oval a couple of years ago. When Larry kicked his kit into action, anyone standing on North Terrace nearly a kilometre away would have felt the beat rising up their legs. It was an awesome show and well worth the almost 40 year wait.
That takes super balls of steel, my legs almost went from under me doing a sound check before a gig in the underground in Dame Street in 1988 with The Heist, fair play to U2
U2 Live in Dublin 22 Sunday bloody Sunday classic song from them great rock band still going strong together forty five years great to watch bono on stage good stuff
What the hell are you talking about. This song is about the troubles that took place in Northern Ireland. It focuses on where English paratroops opened fire and killed people who were marching for civil rights. Yes the black and tans shot people attending a match in retaliation for the night of the long knives but that is a whole different matter especially when it took part in 1916 and in which some parts of croke Park are named after the victims. Please check your facts before you post.
@@kevinoconnor4102..... British forces raided and killed spectators and players during a football game in this stadium on that day too. I don't need to check my facts.
@@chilly6470 your talking complete shit. The last act of terrorism that occurred in Dublin was when Nelson pillar was blown up. As said you haven't a clue what you are talking about and I don't deal with morons.
To Larry bono Adam and Edge thank u for everything.keep rocking brothers.u are and will always b relevant in our Irish lives.god bless u always and never stop.we need u more than ever.
Half filled? Saw them in the park in Leeds 80,000 came. Dutch people are the best but al half filled stadium is a bit strong . Why did nobody bother ? You will never see them in Amsterdam again. But God love you and stay safe. ?
@@hurryman Sorry Rob.I missed the point, you didn't tell me that they were just starting out so I couldn't understand why a half filled stadium was a U2 gig. P.S we went to Amsterdam on our honeymoon and I love the city but you have to be careful walking near the canals when your pissed and stoned ! That's 28 years ago so forgive me Rob! 😂 paradiso is a small venue not a stadium so my error. When you come to Yorkshire, I will buy you a pint and a good roast dinner. Take care brother, the world needs people like you.
@Leo D'Arcy " maybe you should stick to Katy Perry or whatever Garbage music you listen too because if you cannot appreciate a class act when you see one then maybe you should stop trolling and Posting Childish comments
Traveled to Ireland for a two-week excursion with this concert wrapping up the trip. I've been to a lot of concerts and this one ranks high on the list. Absolutely great show and you could feel the energy from the crowd cheering their "hometown" lads. Very cool experience. There are some great vids of this entire show. This one, in particular I like as the sound is good and it uses a compilation fan footage. ruclips.net/video/4AOQysQKE8A/видео.html
Glenn Purdy can you relate to having to pick your friends bleeding bodies up from the street after they had been protesting, unarmed, against the occupation of their country by the British Army, who then opened fire with automatic weapons???
@@glenn9683 No its not about a boring day its about a massacre on a sunday in the city of derry in northern ireland although there was another bloody sunday masacre in that stadium in fact 100 years which is commemorated this year
Not a massive U2 fan, but where ever I am in the world, in whatever pub I am in, if this song comes on everyone goes crazy, What a tune!!
For some bands this song would be their finest hour. For U2 it’s their opening track.

I always loved that drum intro on this song. Great video.
That dude knowing it was Sunday as soon as the first notes were hit is the kind of energy we need
U2 are one of the handful of bands that saved rock n roll during the last 20-30 years
There will never be another band like U2.
Agreed 💯
Thank god
That drum intro from Larry is epic!
I never get tired of these boys
Sunday bloody sunday is the best U2 song hands down...
Bad
THE BEST BAND TO WALK THE EARTH ~ PUERTO RICO
I was at their Mumbai show on December 15 2019 they brought the stadium down... Long live U2 Long live Rock 🤘🤘🤘
Always brings tears to my eyes this song !!!!
so do ı...
Awwww
Still. Some 40 years later.....
Wow !!!
Powerful opening,,this song means so much for so many....
Saw their show in Chicago that year. I was totally stoked when they opened up with this song followed by New Year’s Day. Total nostalgia.
Larry just kicks in like a robot, fantastic opening..
Takes me back some 40 years ago as 15 year old when first hearing them play this… fabulous moment.
Memories of being 12 and listening to this with my sister, in our bedroom on a tape recorder.
Can't imagine a tour like this again was such an honour to see their last 2 tours at home
One of the coolest openings I've ever seen 👍🏼
The Waterboys’ “Whole of the Moon” is playing in the background. Great song.
Lord I used to love that song in my teens but it got so overplayed I can't stand it now... sorry
@@maritighe5674 I understand! I was in my late teens during the disco era in the latter part of the '70s. It so oversaturated the airwaves that I detested the music for decades thereafter.

Father ted tribute
it's the same tempo as Bloody Sunday.
Also supported them back in the day
I heard this song for the first time from a tape on a Walkman in Ras Al Khaimah/UAE; I’d never heard of the band but I was hooked from day one.
God love you son.
I was there... What a memory! And the atmosphere at the Temple Bar just afterwards was damned crazy...
I got chills just watching the video. How great to actually be there live!
Best opening ever for the best band ever! I saw this concert three different locations and each time it started the same way but every time was amazing.

The best ever U2
PROBABLY ONE OF THE BEST BANDS IN THE WORLD LIVE.
So natural
U2 has always been one of my favorite bands.
These guys are to these days the most pure personification of energy!

I am a woman who is looking for a new phone number
I was at the Twickenham show and the opening drums to this song gives me goosebumps. Brilliant gig🙌
Thats lreland croke park
@@markkenny9248 I’m aware of that, I was just saying that I saw them at Twickenham.
THE MAN WHO GAVE US OUR FIRST JOB AND TRIES TO KEEP US IN IT EVERYDAY ON DRUMS LARRY MULLEN JR
I am just lovin the guy in the first row in white…I hope he is enjoying love rn wherever he is
😍👍
How damn cool is Larry... Seriously. Always the best and coolest member.
It's his band
Why do we love U2? cause we all secretly want to walk out on stage and see 50,000 people yelling back at us saying “come on lads...give us a show!”
Try 80'000 more like 😂
Yes but also because they’ve created a multitude of anthems, or hymns that make us shiver everytime
As a rock musician, I always did appreciate and love their music. Just the opinion of many of us.
Merci! je me claque une méga soirée par ta gentillesse de partage de t'es bête de vidéo merci ;)
That takes super balls of steel, my legs almost went from under me doing a sound check before a gig in the underground in Dame Street in 1988 with The Heist, fair play to U2
Wer es sich erlauben kann, ein Konzert mit dem Stück so zu eröffnen, der hat’s geschafft!! Geiles Zeug!
U2 Live in Dublin 22 Sunday bloody Sunday classic song from them great rock band still going strong together forty five years great to watch bono on stage good stuff
Nothing the matter with being a U2er . About as iconic as musicians can be , globally too.....Iconic Superstars...I agree
You've got to love Larry Mullen. He's the boss!
I saw the in 2015 in Boston ma! They were amazing! I wish I saw them back in 1982! My favorite band! Be sides Queen in 1983
tears running down. WHAT A band!
amazing live opening!!!
What a terrific opening!
That is quite the standing swagger behind Bono @1:42 that's kind of badass.
SUNDAY BLOODY SUNDAYのドラムから始まるって超盛り上がるよね
Hi-hat and peal, giving the idea of war atmosphere...
How cool!! Thank you so much for sharing God bless everyone
The look on edges face "you're gonna fucking love this "
1000%
How cool it is when the 3 first drumhits sounds and the whole f..... stadium explodes in dancing and singing
I was there! hello from Spain!
For those of you who don't know...
Sunday, "bloody Sunday" (first one) happened in the stadium they're performing in here.

I saw them in Amsterdam in the beginning, in a half filled Paradiso…epic

You will never see them in Amsterdam again. But God love you and stay safe.

Attended this and like every time the Hairs on my neck stood up whenever Larry appeared to walk out to his Hometown Crowd 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪💚💚💚

Goosebumps WOW !!!
Loved that show!!!
Waterboys intro...
Just curious are all U2 videos shot with the short leg lens?
It is a great day for the fan in the white shirt
What a moonface the edge there has as he walks by.
Can relate to this song, I hate Sundays having to wash the car, cook a massive dinner take and pick up kids from football, bloody Sunday 😫

Flew to Wembley from Glasgow absolutely brilliant , better than their Hampden concert
