Originally posted by vanquish:With the new lyrics on that version of Sunday Bloody Sunday, I don't think that verse is about Iran but about poverty/war in Africa - as that is the point of the ONE Agit8 album.
EDIT: Definitely the case the new verse is about Africa since these lyrics are from the Clinton 'Decade of Difference' performance in 2011 - which I didn't realise earlier.
I don't entirely understand the references Bono is making in the verse though. Though I agree that it isn't really better than the original verse, but it's not really a change for the worse either - nice to have a switch up.
I definitely like that version of SBS, Larry's low key drumming and Adam's 'piano bass' in the background really add something over the previous acoustic versions of SBS.
