The lyrics, in fact, refer to the persecuted leader of the Polish Solidarity movement, Lech Walesa. Coincidentally, after the song was released Poland's Communist government announced that they would abolish martial law.
In 1980 the Solidarity movement in Poland, under the leadership of future Nobel Peace Prize winner and president Lech Walesa, challenged the oppressive rule of the Polish government. In December 1981, the Solidarity movement was outlawed and Walesa, together with the other leaders of the movement, was arrested and put in jail.
Sunday Bloody Sunday is another political big song of them. 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. They made a lot of hits. Discover more from this group.
Agreed, I love that song.
Yes would love to see her react to the 1983 Live at the Red Rocks version. So much more electrifying than the studio.
Old U2 is freaking incredible. You cannot go wrong. Please react to their live performance of "Bad" at Live Aid in 85.
In my view, it all started to go wrong after The Joshua Tree, up to that point was pretty flawless really
agree..after Achtung Baby I stopped following them for the most part.
@@drumvc8060 why is it so hard to not say when you think the acceptable "cutoff" for a band is? why can't we just be happy someone is discovering old songs? why is all this necessary under every. fucking. video.
Bad in Rattle & Hum
Great song from the 80's - also check out 'Pride (In the name of love)' - and dozens more.
U2 album All That You Can’t Leave Behind is spiritual.✌🏻❤️
I know U2 since their album October, the second album of the band which took me a long time to get into. And then it was January 1983 and I heard the new U2 song... this one ... and from that moment on I was a U2 fan. For me the best experience was seeing them live two days in a row in 1993. They were awesome concerts and I have some special memories of both days. Alas the musical direction of the band was not similar to my own and I lost track of the band after their 1997 album Pop.
This song though is what U2 is for me: a band with a fantastic singer Bono, great lyrics and a wonderful guitarist with The Edge. It is wodnerful to hear this again after a very long time.
This is classic U2
Happy New Year! This has always been my favorite U2 song, but "One" is another great song of theirs.
fantastic reaction
I think you would really love - U2 - With Or Without You (Live in Boston 2001). A fan in the audience has a night she'll never forget.
The song that made me a U2 fan for most of my life... while I do not enjoy most of their work after pop they are still a huge band.
War was such a monumental album
Amazing song, very inspiring, loaded with various meanings and messages, and always very appropriate for January 1stAnd what to say about the band... I love them. Simply perhaps the best band in history, with many other great songs. Yeah baby, you have to listen to them more, you will not regret. Kisses from Spain
Great video, an all-time classic, BUT...this is an edited version, the single version, of the original song. It kills me because I love the entire, original version, from the "War" album. You should listen to the entire album because it is one of the best U2 albums of their catalog. U2 ruled the 1980's for me. Of course, they ruled in subsequent decades as well, but that is when I discovered them. The War album is a great example of what was going on in music at that time. Check it out!
Yeah there's the small middle part edited out. Most versions I see are like that on TH-cam. I wonder why they did that. It's a cool part too.....led zeppelin does that for a lot of TH-cam versions of Whole Lotta Love, they omit some of the wild freaky part
One of their first biggest hits that went commercial and got them on the map
Happy New Year Inna and by many reactions this year!!!!!! Great song to start it!
Great song, takes me right back to when it first came out - enjoyed the reaction 🙂
Happy newyear!!!
Thanks for reminding me of this brilliant song. Happy New Year and all the best to you for the coming year.
Apparently, the song was written about the solidarity movement in Poland but it must be in the back of their minds about all the 'troubles' in Northern Ireland, and the Republic, and in Britain as well at the time, where so many innocent ppl lost their lives. Especially as two members of U2 where English born Irishmen, so I'm sure that must have played with them a bit even if only on a subconscious level. The line 'though torn in two, we will be one' seems to be about all that time in our shared history, which now, thankfully seems to be becoming a thing of the past, that the younger generations don't want to repeat. I remember many times as a child in the 70s and 80s shopping in our city centre here in England when ⁴there would often be a bomb scare or an actual bomb. One year there was a campaign of leaving incendiary devices in shops to burn them down and they also planted a bomb outside the army recruiting office. But they also had their own brutality over there to deal with, and imo eventually ppl on both sides just realised it was simply gangsterism, from a provisional army that terrorised their own ppl as well with punishment beatings, and kneecapping young guys for petty crimes and vigilante justice as though they were the law, even dragging one young single mother out of her home and away from her young family and murdering her, leaving a family of young children with no mother, all because she had gone to offer a shot and dying British soldier a drink of water. Such women were seen as sympathetic to the British when to me it just made her sympathetic to a dying young man, wherever he was from, so the best ppl in all that carry on were the ones paying the price for a situation beyond their control. And it was the same here. Apart from politicians like Thatcher trying to rile ppl up there was very little desire for us to still be engaged in a centuries-old squabble between two countries that should be the closest cousins. In the city where I grew up in northwest England it was very common to have countless Irish ppl living in the area and nobody ever had anything against them. My best mate during my school days in the 80s - Linton, despite us going to different schools divided along 'religious' lines (RIP mate, gone far too soon at 27 many decades ago) was from an Irish Catholic family and I was a British Church of England guy but it just never entered either of our minds (except making fun out of each other about it. He'd call me a 'Proddy bas%!=d' and I'd call him a Fenian (even though i didn't really have a clue what it even meant) and it was all just a juvenile joke to us for it to be a thing, and all three generations of his family were no different. We all drank in the same pubs and didn't really care where ppl were from. I'm sure some ppl did but they were a small minority and mostly idiots so nobody really paid much attention to them. Although I'm English, I doubt there is one British person or probably Irish person as well who doesn't have some English or Welsh or Scots or Irish relatives somewhere in their history. I've got all 4. So, although they have said it was about the solidarity thing I'm certain all that Irish/British history must have played into it as well. And apart from that it's just a great song. I've never been a big U2 fan but I've always loved New Year's Day.
Happy New Years!! 🥂 🥂 Make 2024 a great one ! 😊🎉❤
My favourite song of them
This was U2's first UK Top Ten from the album War, UK No. 1. If you want to know how U2 works live, check out the Red Rocks Colorado 1983 live video. Sunday, Bloody Sunday, the first radio rock hit in Europa+USA, also comes from the same studio album and the same concert. The song has a deep background about the Northern Ireland conflict. Go on like that.
Local rock radio stations here in NY used to play this the moment the clock struck Midnight on New Years Eve. But this was U2's first big hit, at least here in the states.
You heard the abbreviated version. But even so, one of the most beautiful guitar solos ever, yes.
(Full version is much much better solo)
Excellent reaction :) Hope you had a nice time in Ireland, and youre right, Bono lives just on the coast in Killiney!
Happy to hear someone praise this solo. I know a lot of guitarists will criticize The Edge for being simplistic, but sometimes simplicity wins. Also, Larry Mullen Jr's drums compliment him perfectly. I agree though. This is for sure one of the best solos in Alt Rock/Punk Rock at the very least.
Beautiful
This song started out as a love song to Bono's wife, but he changed the song when Lech Walesa was arrested and changed it into a political song. Lech Walesa was the leader of the Polish Solidarity movement at the time. They were founded in 1980 and fighting the communist regime. In late 1981, martial law was declared in Poland and thousands of activists (including Walesa himself) were arrested and detained. The original love song element comes into play as well, since a big inspiration for Bono was the fact that Walesa and his wife Danuta couldn't be together after Lech's arrest
The song was released in january 1983, weirdly enough at the same moment when the communist regime lifted martial law
Another amazing political song is Sunday Bloody Sunday, which is about a major incident during The Troubles in Northern Ireland. I'll throw it your way in Discord :)
Happy New Year Inna! Looking forward to what you have lined up in 2024! Cheers! 🥂🎉❤️
Try “So Cruel”.
Exquisite lyrics. So Cruel is a U2 song that many people seem not to know about….at least it’s not mentioned as much. But my favorite U2 song.
Cheers
Happy New Year Inna. Wishing you an amazing 2024.... For the song, Not the new years song we thought it would be.
I was at their first concert in Germany in 1983 - Rock Palast Open Air Lorelei ! This is kind of Amphi theater . The band was on stage but Bono was on top of a small tower a bit backwards . He held an Irish flag into the setting sun !!! This was such a great scene .
Your surprise and awe are what make reaction videos so amazing at times! U2 is a truly great band. You'd probably love Sunday Bloody Sunday and One.
U2, one, pride in the name of love, stay faraway so close, Drowning man, disappearing act, 11' o clock tic tock, gloria, with or without you....
My first concert was U2.. Tampa Stadium in '87. When they were a proper rock band 😊👍
One my favorite band I meant him in person a few times
If you really want to see a very young Bono, watch their I Will Follow video. Sunday Bloody Sunday is U2's most iconic song.
Happy New Year Inna 🥳🎉🪅🎆🎇🍾🪩🎈🎊 You should watch their movie I believe it’s called Rattle and Hum
u2 forever
the song was inspired by the Polish Solidarity movement in the early 80s
Unbelievable band
The Firm - "Satisfaction Guaranteed"
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Paul Rogers(Bad Company) vocals
Jimmy Page(Led Zeppelin) guitar
If you could react to u2 live in Sydney in 1993. You have a magical transition between "running to stand still" and "where the streets have no name". You must react with both songs. Have à good day.
My favourite band! Try something from their Achtung Baby album next. Or, if you want to have fun watching a video, Discotheque ;)
This was their first big hit. They are amazing live. Seen them like 20 times! Happy New Years Day!
There older hits are a must! Love to see you react to U2 “Pride” In the name of love (official music video) 🙏
A bit of fun information about this clip. The video was shot in Sweden. The band only appear in the performance sections. Those riding the horses are four teenage Swedish girls. The song was initially a love song, then it was reworked to connect to the Polish Solidarity movement.
This is a good song to react to a live version
I never realized there was footage of a T-34 tank in this video 🤔. Bono is so young there, as we all were then 😊. Happy New Year.
Check out “Drowning Man”. It’s on the same Album, “War” as this song.
Joshua tree album was one of their best great songs to do reaction too.
This was the edited version, so you didn't get to hear the most profound lyric:
"So we're told this is the Golden Age
But gold is the reason for the wars we wage."
Thank you for pointing that out! Was a deep lyrics there!
Not only gold but ideology.
Given today's news, that song is particularly relevant.
In the wide shots like 2:54 the drummer looks like he is holding a snowman's head lol ⛄
Hi Inna Happy New year. I've been so lucky over the years to visit and go to six of their concerts I was able to do 4 meet great.They donate a lot of their money to finding a cure for AIDS back starting in the 80s Bono is the lead singer The Edge is lead guitarist keyboardist and back up singer.
A good song to do a reaction on would be
Bullet in the Blue sky.
That would be great.
My New year's resolution is like a lot of other go to the gym and lose lbs. I'm positive you will reach goals with UTub and Twitch
And running golls ❤😊.
I got into U2 from Joshua Tree
My goal is to keep breathing.... and be aware.
You can't go wrong with U2, try Sunday Bloody Sunday, One, Please, Where The Streets Have No Name, October, Magnificent, Bad.....
I should tell 100 others easily
I would have loved to have been ion the room when the director pitched his idea to the members of U2 for the video. "Let's have you ride horses through the woods in the middle of winter and have you stand in ankle deep snow and pretend to play you instruments in the freezing cold." "Sound like fun, guys?"
When music Was music...
That´s Bono, he always was, is and always will be, nikdo jiný u TH-cam nikdy nezpíval
7:00. Hang on to your friggin hat…
If you like this tipe of guitars take a listen to Noiseworks - Touch
Yeah Bono has a gaff out in Dalky
This song about wore they play this song Live Aid.
Great reaction to an amazing U2 song! You do need to working on keeping the audio and the video synched though, it’s hard to watch when those are so off from each other.
I've never seen the video before but I would say ww1 or 2 not sure I have followed u2 since the early 80s
That is Bono.
That's Bono, but nowadays you rarely see him without sunglasses.
Im from Ireland and Irish people hate bono and u2 do a reaction of aslan crazy world you will like it.
Инна послушай больше U2 ,
Оч много крутых песен )
Agh! Radio edit. Be sure to catch the LP version. The video here is rushed and cuts out builds and emotional atmosphere.
Pushing Apple Music subscribers or force feeding the album was a mistake. But much credit to U2 to keep trying stuff.
U2 really didn't have to record another song after New Years Day....
Perfect song for New Years Day. A political song referering to the movement for solidarity lead by Lech Walesa in Poland.
Yeah, that thing you were talking about with Apple, I think was just a marketing gimmick, I believe on Apple's part, that completely backfired, and pissed a lot of people off.
U2 was so huge in the 80s and into the 90s, and Bono was one of the hugest celebrities in the world at the time. Among other albums of theirs, the Joshua Tree album is pretty iconic as one of the best albums of all time. They were always known for being politically and socially outspoken, in fact, Bono has recieved a fair share of backlash over the years, as being a pretentious celebrity that should keep his mouth shut by his detractors, but he has always tried to be involved in doing good things, and helping people. If I'm being honest, I'm a U2 fan that grew up with them, but sometimes it is really hard for me to tell if Bono really is just that fucking cool, or a pretentious asshole. I think it's a very fine line with him, but what do I know?
I don't know what this specific song was about, but them being Irish, a lot of their stuff in the 80s was related to "the troubles" in Northern Ireland, or the Cold War. I could be wrong about this, but I think their name, U2, is after the American Lockheed U2 spy plane, that during the Cold War and pre satellites, was a super high altitude plane used for taking long range photographs to gather intelligence.
This is a little obscure, but just a couple bits about them that I've been fascinated with. The first is that U2 first formed when they were teenagers that went to school together. I think that Bono and The Edge (the guitar player) had known each other even longer than that, and had grown up as friends. Supposedly though, early on in their career Bono, The Edge, and either my memory is off, or the two different places where I've heard this mentioned differ on whether it was Larry the drummer or Adam the Bassist, but regardless, three of the four got into some born again Christian movement, or something like that, and almost kicked out the fourth guy, or broke up the band all together because they were worried about how it effected their new religious beliefs. It didn't happen, and I guess they got out of whatever phase they were going through at the time, but I've always been so curious to know more about that, but never hear it brought up or talked about by them. Maybe it's just an exaggeration, or not true at all, but I always felt bad for Larry or Adam, whichever of them was the oddman out, who must've been like, "WTF?! I thought we were a rock n roll band. I just wanted to play music, have some fun, and maybe meet some chicks!" But instead, all of a sudden his longtime friends wanted to toss him aside for whatever this new thing was that they were in to.
The other thing is that there was a movie that came out more than 10 years ago now, called "Killing Bono", that was based on the memoirs of Neil McCormick, who was apparently a school mate, maybe even friend of theirs, that had been there when U2 first got together. Im fact, his brother played guitar, and was originally asked to be a part of the band, but this guy was basically a narcissistic asshole that was jealous and competitive with Bono, though, I'm not sure that Bono was even fully aware of the extent of it, or that he was part of any competition. Anyways, he kept his brother from being part of U2 because it was his brother, and he was going to have his own band, and it seems like any opportunities their band ever had were ruined by him being such a dick and fucking things up, but of course in his mind, it was somehow always Bono's fault, and he was obsessed with Bono. He did eventually go on to be a journalist, author, and broadcaster, but his obsession caused a lot of distruction in his life for a long time, and he probably definitely fucked his brother over majorly. I would love to hear Bono's side of that story, and how much he even knew that it was going on.
My goal is to live to see 2025
Amazin ain’t it??
So stranged when the new generetion don't know who is Bono 😮!!!!!
react to Pride - U2
Hey Inna , I would like to know your opinion about video's from The Cure ......greets
Que onda con esa versión?, no es la completa
U2 was one of my favorite band then .Plus there Irish like my Grandfather on my mothers side. The song is basically about Polish Solidarity movement against the communist government of Poland. Happy New Year Inna you look absolutely divine!❤🖤
Hello if u like U2 check out their live version of I will follow live from Milan
U2 was the best back when they were political
I agree.
I loved U2 as a teen in the 80's, and this is one of their best songs. I lost interest in them after they released The Joshua Tree in '87 though. I didn't like their new sound.
I'm not sure if you have ever done a reaction to 10cc this version is better than studio "10cc - i'm not in love Wales 2011" if you copy and paste between " " you will get the right song. I hope you find time time to watch.
Happy new year.10cc - i'm not in love " Wales 2011
She's definitely a cutie!
What's her #?
BRITS GET OUT
The radio version.......meh
Bocsesz de nagyon gyenge eresztés. Egyetlen egy igazi jó daluk sincs. Nem értem miért vannak oda egyesek a zenekarért. 15 éve próbálom megszeretni őket. Minden zenei stílusban tudok jó, igazi jó címeket sorolni napestig!. Ezek a fiúk nem jók, ezt röviden így tudom mondani. Persze aki valamit talált bennük és ezért kedveli, annak jó hallgatást a továbbiakban is. De csak szólok, a világ tele van milliószor jobb bandákkal mint ezek a srácok!
There's a good writeup on Wikipedia... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_(U2_album)
