"Sunday Bloody Sunday" is noted for its militaristic drumbeat, harsh guitar, and melodic harmonies. One of U2's most overtly political songs, its lyrics describe the horror felt by an observer of the Troubles in Northern Ireland, mainly focusing on the 1972 Bloody Sunday incident in Derry where British troops shot and killed unarmed civil rights protesters.
It was a big breakthrough for The Edge in his songwriting chops. He's spoken on how he struggled with the idea of "am I just going to just play on things my bandmates write, or am I a writer too?" But this was something he felt deeply about, and he wrote it with passion.
Classic red coats. Amiright?
the time u2 played great songs... later only rubbish.. but under a blood red sky was one of the best live lps ever..
@@seelenwinter6662 I have the LP I listen it every day
It was a massacre, not an 'incident'.
My fathers Uncle John died a few weeks back, he was at the centre of Bloody Sunday, John won the Nobel prize and brought peace to the north of Ireland, may God rest his soul, Bono wrote a poem that was read out because we had to keep it small because of the COVID-19 nonsense.
Probably the greatest Irish man to have ever live and to fight for peace in Ireland, you must be very proud of him as were all Irish people, may he rest in peace
@@mcflowers197900 Thank you for your kind words, John would have certainly said none were needed that he was just doing what any decent man or woman would do, i don't think he ever truly realised just how much of a special man he was, he lamented globalism, i have him on video in '09 at my Da's funeral stating how bad it would be.
do you mean John Hulme? he was in the same care home as my granda at the end, helped look after him as much as i could while i was there. He is now burried close to my granda and my friend who died young. He was a good man
Bloody Sunday was on January 30, 1972. That day, the UK army fired on the participants of a demonstration in Derry, Northern Ireland killing 14 unarmed civilians and wounding more. This unleashed the nationalist revolt against the London government.
Bono was 11 yo, son of a Protestant mother and a Catholic father, so "this song is not a rebel song", it's more a reflection on the absurdity of the hatred that divides people who should be together. There's an amazing live version in the movie Rattle and Hum, where the band dedicates it to the 11 people killed during the IRA terrorist attack in 1987. Give it a try, it's really powerful!
The sensible comment most have got what the song is about wrong, well done chap
... but for Bono it's also about the frustration and anger of the conflict as a whole.
It's weird my grandad was meant to go that event that day but on the way him and his friends witnessed a house fire and were captivated by it as young boys are... life is funny no one died in the house fire but my grandad and his friends never made it to that event... it may have saved their lives
@@williamMcsweeney2024 The Irish fought themselves as much as the British. U2 are commenting on the absolute absurdity of that situation. There's no justification for the British army action, there's no justification for the IRA blowing up children in Omagh and a hundred other places.
La version que es memorable es la de Under the blood res Sky. Un poquito mas rapida y extensa. Esa placa es realmente muy buena
Amazing song! Its about the massacre on January 30, 1972 where British troops shot and killed civil rights protesters in Northern Ireland. First time I saw them perform live was in 1987. Love how Bono introduced this song by saying "this is not a rebel song, this Sunday Bloody Sunday!". U2 is iconic! You should check out New Years Day, Pride (in the name of love), Bad.
if you ever want a really great live version of this - look at Rattle and Hum Sunday Bloody Sunday. Talk about being pissed off an going on stage.
Just comment to agree, it is one the most powerful live performances ever.
U2’s song Pride is about MLK...Great song!
A lot more. Study the lyrics.
chris minari I’ve studied all their lyrics. Been a hardcore fan since the Boy album. It was an abbreviated description for a great song. But you have a nice day now.
@@leannmiller7153 Not meaning to sound rude. I'm just implying in most songs. The word Love is a metaphor for "The Lord" and One represents all Men. This song has many verses that speak of different incidents. Jesus was "Betrayed with a kiss." Of Judah. One.. Washed on an empty Beach represents numerous soldiers who didn't make it to shore alive. One.. "Caught on a Barbed wire fence" represents other soldiers or slaves who were just that. And yes, the most clear part of the song represents MLK's assassination. "One more.. What more?" Asking the lord why it keeps happening. COEXIST.
chris minari Sorry if I misunderstand your motives, and took it personal. All is good, and it’s nice to see someone who knows the lyrics so well. I’m 67 and still fangirling over U2🤟
Sorry no. That MLK Song was “Pride (In the Name of Love)”. Sunday Bloody Sunday is about the Bloody Sunday Bogside Massacre in Derry, Northern Ireland, 1972.
Oh wow, your doing bloody sunday, one of my favorites from, U2!
Kathy we don’t belong in a box 🙂
@@NOTATTS Your right we don't!!!
This my my favorite u2 song. The whole record, War, is incredible.
British oppression in Ireland , black lives: same same! Overcome the power!!!
From a fellow Irishman I love you and I will fight for you and I've got your back until black lives matter all lives can never matter
No not the same.Are war was about religion and getting our country back from a occupation British army.
You should listen to u2 pride in the name of love and its about Martin Luther King
Dude gave you a try because of the song choice ... you get it. No fooling around-I likes. Yep socially conscious band... this refers to Northern Ireland. 👏🏻 reaction
It was an Irish Catholic led protest that ended in bloodshed when British troops opened fire on the protesters. Here is a link to an article about the days events and the tragedy that took place:

Michael Kelly, age 17.
Hugh Gilmour, age 17.
William Nash, age 19.
John Young, age 17.
Michael McDaid, age 20.

Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May their souls and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen. ... Like the seed buried in the ground, you have produced the harvest of eternal life for us; make us always dead to sin and alive to God.
This is fantastic ❤️ from an Irish woman, I really enjoyed this
Nice job, No Tatts! One of very few who actually listens to the lyrics.
Its a song about the troubles in Northern Ireland U2 are making a stance against both sides as bono says this many lost tell me who has won
I get that but what were they supposed to do just lay down and let the British control Ireland forever? I still think they should get the f*** out of the North
The Rattle and Hum live version of this song is super special. The passion coming from Bono during that specific performance in my opinion rivals anything any other singer has done.
Bono raging. It’s incredible. Definitely the greatest version of this song.
Nice bro🔥! More U2 pls!
One is an amazing song💪🏻
It’s coming
there is also a version of One of U2 with Mary J. Blige
Love the versatility of your channel. U2 is a great group #NTKrew #DrumSolo
They can’t box us in bro
Tough song to listen to. Brings tear to my eyes. This is what music and art does. Great job, U2!
great reaction! great song! U2 are even better live in concert, check out "Sunday Bloody Sunday " Live at Red Rocks, incredible performance!
In before the strike! U2 are amazing. Streets have no name, in the name of love (pride) also bangers
Music and songs are the voice of the world and soul, I even love some songs and have no clue what they are saying....music touches everyone's soul, that's why it's so powerful...
Zombie by the Cranberries is also about the violence in Northern Ireland, and is a very powerful song, especially the video.
Love that you’re rocking the Colorado hat! Great reaction to a fantastic song!
Represent ! Are you a native ?
No Tatts I consider myself one! I’ve lived here longer than anywhere else in my life, so it’s home.
I knew this song but I just rediscovered it and have listened to it like 30 times in the last week
You are an icon. Thank you brother.
I love U2. I got a very different recommendation. Still Rock tho. Flamingo, by La Vida Boheme. It's in Spanish, but the music is enough to make you feel something.
Sadly, Ireland was torn by war for years, an incredibly sad history reflected in U2's breakout album....U2 erupted and Boston was aglow; so much energy, driving guitar riffs. Irish-wisdom played/sung by some fine-looking post-punk, spike-haired, combat boot-wearing, emotionally charged/angry boys who gave hypnotic music to a kool-aid drinking audience...U2 memories...
Haha I like your description of them. I grew up in this era so I remember them, and am a fan.
You should check out their song New Years Day. Also The Cranberries Zombie
Also "Pride (In the Name of Love)"...one of my all time fave U2 songs.
If you are feeling Sunday bloody Sunday check out New year's day or Bad
The fact you said you are putting people on blast made me sub 😂😂😂
Here is what the song is about en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloody_Sunday_(1972)
I agree music transcends all... this was about the horrors n stupidity of hatred n war.... I grew up during this era in Ireland but it could speak to anyone any country in conflict.... I just buried my brother n I played a song at his funeral that meant something to him... I've listened to songs that are written about something else but we all find our own meaning... music knows no language it's a beautiful thing that joins us together as people xxx
sunday bloody Sunday can apply to people that are oppressed. This song with its militaristic drumming and beautiful vocals. Top shelf
My big fella......love it
This song in the Rattle and Hum concert movie let's you know where these guys are from and how they felt back then. Powerful, personal stuff.
1971 the British parachute regiment went from murdering 11 civilians in Ballymurphy, West Belfast which included a woman and a priest who went out to give the last rites to a dying man. This same regiment later went to Derry and murdered 14 civilians most of the dead were only 17 years old. This was also only 5 weeks after McGurks Bar was blown up in the Catholic New Lodge area of Belfast by the loyalist UVF killing 15 people. These 3 events contributed to the Provisional IRA getting considerably more support from the Irish Nationalist population.
That entire album, War (1983), is a ass kicker from front to back. Give it a listen one day.
goose bumps at the start
Larry Mullen, Jr. on drums❤️❤️❤️
Please listen to this highly emotional live performance of 'Sunday Bloody Sunday': ruclips.net/video/ahVUBlBjVv4/видео.html (Rattle and Hum version)
'Bloody Sunday' was a mass slaughter in N. Ireland - the Army opened fire on innocent civilians, many were killed; U2 wrote this song in remembrance of those who died. However, 20 years later, the Enniskillen bombing was equally horrific - innocent people, like lambs to the slaughter - just a few miles from were I live. The bomb caused total carnage.....U2 were onstage in America when it happened, so Bono basically told the audience the truth about war in his home country, how much pain the 'Revolution' (I.R.A.) was causing and called for it to stop. He received many death threats for speaking the truth that day....but it made me just love them even more for standing up for what was right - an end to war
!
I've been lucky enough to have seen U2 twice in concert, and they DO NOT disappoint! I'm Irish and have seen them play Belfast and in their home town, Dublin☘️both concerts were unbelievably amazing, but seeing them play to THEIR DUBLIN was something I will NEVER forget. Bono is so interactive with the crowd and the band just kept on playing for hours.You should listen to 'With Or Without You', 'One' or 'All I Want Is You'.....simply beautiful.
♥️
"And it's true we are immune, when fact is fiction and TV reality."
Love your thoughts and insights. Ready for some metal? Try Iron Maiden - Hallowed By Thy Name live at Hammersmith 1982, or Judas Priest - Painkiller official music video.
What about new years day?
Recommended song for reaction, especially w/ the video: "To Hell and Back" by Sabaton, about America's most decorated WW2 soldier Audie Murphy.
There are 8 Centuries of conflict between the Irish and the English. The English always trying to subdue the Irish and make them more "English". The Irish resisting the English incursions. This was still going up to the end of the 20th Century and there is still smoldering issues between the two.
Read the history of Ireland, Northern Ireland and the English... This song is about when unarmed civilians were ruthlessly shot and killed on a Sunday in Ireland. It is a battle call song for many Irish.
It’s about the war in Northern Ireland
Should watch Sunday Bloody Sunday at live aid it’s so good
This song is about the government in Ireland shooting civil rights protestors in 1972...the year I was born. It was a great time of unrest in Ireland.✌️😎
This is about british paratroopers shooting 26 unarmed innocent irish people killing 14 of them hence the name bloody sunday. It happened on the bogside in derry northern ireland which is still part of the uk. Basically british soldiers opened fire on an innocent peaceful civil rights march. How brave of them. The irish government had nothing to do with this massacre only the british forces.
lfcgero thank you for clarifying my mistake!!✌️😊
@@jesrush it is very easy to do as this 30 year war had many sides fighting for different reasons. I have been corrected a few times myself to be honest. Slainte.
Wtf how can you be so wrong is one small comment
Nope wrong.
if you want to learn more about the topic , then i Recommand you : 1) the song "Zombie" by cranberries; 2) the movie "Bloody sunday". They will explain it more than mys words could !
Thankyou...love this song...live is great 🤟🏼
Nice reaction...yes those in power should b put in a ring to fight it out themselves not expect others to do their dirty work...they'd soon find another way lol ....yrs later they all shake hands an laugh/joke together...doesnt bring the poor young soldiers back ....think the song ended abruptly, again i would suggest listening to it live (they did an early version around 83 & it sounds alot better ) Im sure ur aware now that it was based on the Northern Ireland 'troubles'...civilians shot by british paratroopers in the early 70's.
Bloody Sunday is based on a real point in time that happened in the 70s in Ireland
Shinn Fein -(sh-ehn fän-(as in PLAIN))
Metallica.... Enter Sandman....1991.....Russia.....end of the cold war....1.5 million fans (seriously)....🔥
Was about the English army shooting n killing about 30 Irish civil rights marches in Derry Northern Ireland 1972
Hello no tatts can I just say ur brill but little advice it's dangerous to drink from plastic love you take care love from Ireland ☘️
Well music like good food tend to get around.
The police have good song about Northern Ireland called invisible sun
Welcome to the Church Of U2.
Do some ratfinks/rob zombie reactions bro good ass rock music right there
It was about Bloody Sunday, a day in 1972 when the British army shot and killed 14 Irish Republican protestors in Northern Ireland.
Its about the british occupation in Ireland. British troops opened fire during a soccer game on a sunday afternoon killing irish civilians
Bloody Sunday was the real catalyst to the Troubles in Northern Ireland. Catholics were disadvantaged in Northern Ireland. Most didn't have a vote, and those that did, their vote was Gerrymandered. They were generally treated like dirt. Whilst its not the same and the scope may not have been as big, its exactly the same political mechanisms employed to keep Black Americans down. The NI Civil Rights movement was actually inspired by the American one. Up until Bloody Sunday, the vast, vast majority of Catholics thought they could achieve their aims through non-violent protest. The Civil Rights movement died on Bloody Sunday and paramilitary groups like the IRA (who previously had little support) were able to recruit off the back of what the British army did that day. They figured if even peaceful protests for Civil Rights could be so violently quashed by the state, what was the point in playing by their rules? After that the place descended into a violent tit-for-tat war zone between Catholic and Protestant paramilitary groups. And its important to note, none of this had anything to do with religion. It's about national identity. Catholics tend to be Nationalists who believe Ireland should be reunited and Protestants (who tend to be Unionists) who believe Northern Ireland should remain part of the UK. Its complicated and messy and though we've thankfully got some semblance of peace these days, its fragile and the societal divisions remain.
Rock: Metallica Enter Sandman; One, Guns n Roses November Rain; Paradise City, Skillet Monster; Awake and Alive
Yeah, all you have to do is look up Bloody Sunday, and it'll become very clear what this song is about.
Here's a suggestion: React to Devil's Work by Joyner Lucas and react to Devil's Work Response by Bizzle. You NOT GONNA REGRET IT! Piece of art right there. Break the bars down, you gonna LOVE IT! For sure!
Still relevant today...
Bono's parents were Catholic and Protestant. ruclips.net/video/A_XfbHou88w/видео.html This video shows footage of the shootings, I don't know whether it's a recreation or historical but here it is: ruclips.net/video/Yv5U0A10hrI/видео.html The Cranberries did a song called Zombie which was about children dying because of a bombing in Northern Ireland.
Dude, if you like DRUMS and guitar solos, you have to check out "Stargazer" by Rainbow. Ritchie Blackmore is the greatest guitarist of all time, and the song opens with a kick-ass drum intro!!!!
This is bout the fighting in North Ireland, look up The IRA (Irish Republic Army) and Shien Fien. Oppression history that has been forgotten.
I know every reactor has done this but you gotta react to Metallica One . With the music video .
there was another verse you ended too soon
What did I miss ?
@@NOTATTS and it's true we are immune when fact is fiction and tv reality. and today millions cry, we eat and drink while tomorrow they die . the real battle just begun to claim the victory jesus won on sbs sbs
Exactly! He missed the final verse 😑
@@NOTATTS Here is the best video you will get for this song ruclips.net/video/B4ZOaELWMqY/видео.html
Missed the Christian lines at the end. Poignant
You're absolutely good looking.
Is love you to react to pride which is about MLK... it's when they were very young but classic song
Something about Americans - bc somehow it's always Americans - reacting to this song and Zombie by the Cranberries seemingly without ever even having *heard* of the Troubles bothers me. This stuff was *recent* , it only offically ended in like '98 and the effects could definitely still be felt much later, how come nobody over there seems to have heard of it when so many people over there claim Irish heritage? Like I don't even expect Americans to know shit about *my* country's history, even the parts their country was invoved in, but Ireland is part of the Anglosphere, surely knowledge of the Troubles should be much more widespread in the US than it apparently is?
there was another verse, you cut about 2 minutes off of the song??
The protestants vs Catholics
If you're a fan of just music. I'll like and subscribe.
STAY against war ...it's a RACKET....Wake up.
war these days is ever just about money
You have to listen to Pride
You were talking about good stuff to react to and all genre.. I beg you to listen to dimash... the best gateway song is SOS.... I promise you your ears will thank me for this.xxx
Free education. Look it up 1912
Learn it. Know reason you can't.
Can you please react to Peter Gabriel song called Darkness
Please
i cant believe you cut the song short, you missed a whole verse that is just as important as the rest of the song
You skipped the last verse
LONG LIVE IRELAND
Look up the" troubles "...ever heard of the IRA?
rattle and hum live version is better bono explains what happed
. Warra. . . Irelandri InnI🇬🇧 British
A Song must Heard tipo the end... Of you really like It.
