    Apparently, there's a live version of Sunday Bloody Sunday that plays over the end credits and I'm just wondering if anyone here knows which version they did (which tour, even which date it was) b/c the people at IMDb are clueless when it comes to live U2.

    Thanks!

    Does anyone know if thats the film with James Nesbitt (Murphy's Law, Yellow Pages ads. in the UK), if you know? It sounds familiar...

    I don't know the answer, but R&H would make sense....one of the more emotional performances of that song, IMO.


    On an emotional level, R&H, Slane and PopMart are the 3 most powerful performances I've ever seen/heard/watched etc. R&H is just so full of raw energy and Bono's passion just goes into overdrive, "Fuck the revolution!" etc. - if he wasn't able to release that by performing he'd probably exploded or something, and on the PopMart DVD with Edge's solo performance, it's so eery and haunting in the way it has a whole new take from the song's traditional rousing semi-militant feel. I can't remember who it was by, but I found a video on Youtube where someone had coupled together a cover of the song by a female artist (whose name escapes me where the only musical accompaniment is a piano playing) with images of soldiers in Iraq, Afghanistan etc. It's so chilling...

    As for the Slane DVD version, where Bono says the names of those killed in the Omagh bombings, it really resonates with me, like PopMart performances of Mothers Of The Disappeared and the Superbowl performance of MLK/Streets etc. there's just that real sense of melancholy and poignancy that gets coupled with the concept of the loss that so many people across the world have suffered in the past, and are indeed suffering now.
  3. First post here (yeah, yeah, I know...)

    Anyway, I've been looking for this for a while too now, and I just stumbled across this

    video

    That's the one, innit?

    I guess someone dug up the master tapes for that documentary, or something (haven't looked at the boot yet, so I'll do that now )
