Agreed. I remember watching this live I am feeling. But I had never seen the interview Billie Joe did with Edge on ABC which aired before this. I just went and watch that and it’s incredible interview. It’s about 10 minutes. I’ve always liked both U2 and Green Day. But I never fully appreciated their connection musically and philanthropically. It’s good stuff.
Thanks to The Edge for making this happen. I was there too. This was a pregame Show, (Not Half Time), and about 10 minuets later, Rebirth Happened, Gleason's block kick.... the rest was history. Still makes me cry.....
When the window was open in my English class,circa 1978 you heard a band rehearsing this song,,we would bunk off to go down and watch them,it was Dunfermline Scotland punk legends the SKIDS,fast forward ,never could imagine super hands covering it !! amazing !!
This was pregame. Perhaps you mixed it up bc its the same building (4 years prior) where U2 played the greatest (in my humble opinion) Super Bowl halftime show right after 9/11. There may have been more musically exciting shows over the years(Bruce Springsteen, Prince, Tom Petty, Paul McCartney, etc. were all fantastic.). But when considering the 9/11 factor with the names scrolling down behind them and Bono opening his jacket with American flag, it is second to none spiritually/emotional. It still gives me goosebumps.
Summer has come and passed The innocent can never last Wake me up when September ends Like my fathers come to pass Seven years has gone so fast Wake me up when September ends Here comes the rain again Falling from the stars Drenched in my pain again Becoming who we are As my memory rests But never forgets what I lost Wake me up when September ends Summer has come and passed The innocent can never last Wake me up when September ends Ring out the bells again Like we did when spring began Wake me up when September ends Here comes the rain again Falling from the stars Drenched in my pain again Becoming who we are As my memory rests But never forgets what I lost Wake me up when September ends Summer has come and passed The innocent can never last Wake me up when September ends Like my father's come to pass Twenty years has gone so fast Wake me up when September ends Wake me up when September ends Wake me up when September ends

There is a house in New Orleans, they call the Rising Sun It's been the ruin of many a poor boy, and God, I know I'm one I cried to my daddy on the telephone, how long now? Until the clouds unroll and you come home, the line went But the shadows still remain since your descent, your descent I cried to my daddy on the telephone, how long now? Until the clouds unroll and you come home, the line went But the shadows still remain since your descent, your descent The saints are coming, the saints are coming I say no matter how I try, I realise there's no reply The saints are coming, the saints are coming I say no matter how I try, I realise there's no reply A drowning sorrow floods the deepest grief, how long now? Until the weather change condemns belief, how long now? When the night watchman lets in the thief What's wrong now? Ho, hey The saints are coming, the saints are coming I say no matter how I try, I realise there's no reply The saints are coming, the saints are coming I say no matter how I try, I realise there's no reply I say no matter how I try, I realise there's no reply I say no matter how I try, I realise there's no reply
Stuart Adamson is the greatest musician few people have ever heard of.
I was there for this. 16 years later and it still makes me emotional… What a day that was!
that's beautiful but christ bono is a douche
Stay young 🙏
Maybe best superstar band collaboration live ive ever heard
indeed
Lynne, Harrison,Dylan,Harrison and (initially) Orbison
No one in stadium including all the performers knew that Bono was going to improvise singing about places in New Orleans , he kept it to himself.
this performance is just what the people from New Orleans needed at the time due to its uplifting quality

An Irish and an American band cover a Scottish band's song, love it :)
I can see in years to come when they make a movie about the Saints Superbowl run, this is going to be defining moment of the movie!
I am so jealous of the people that saw them together
The Saints Are Coming - written by Skids front man Richard Jobson, music by Stuart Adamson circa 1979. Stuart went on to form Big Country,
My first live band 1978 kirkcaldy the station hotel the skids and to see green day and u2 performing this brilliant song is so lovely
Someone call in the saints and wake me up when this year ends.
No phones takings videos shots. That’s such an era ppl were really present in the monent

the Edge is amazing
He is one of the greatest guitarists
i love watching him w/the band and i love hearing him sing w/Bono
Green day are amazing
It's beautiful. I've looked at it for five hours now.
Without a doubt one of the best half time shows. .So emotional. So much from this performance. Paid tribute ti New Orleans( Katrina) and U.S.A ( 911)
this was part of the pregame, not halftime. the saints were literally coming. everyone watching had goosebumps like you wouldnt believe

Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September ends
Like my fathers come to pass
Seven years has gone so fast
Wake me up when September ends
Here comes the rain again
Falling from the stars
Drenched in my pain again
Becoming who we are
As my memory rests
But never forgets what I lost
Wake me up when September ends
Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September ends
Ring out the bells again
Like we did when spring began
Wake me up when September ends
Here comes the rain again
Falling from the stars
Drenched in my pain again
Becoming who we are
As my memory rests
But never forgets what I lost
Wake me up when September ends
Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September ends
Like my father's come to pass
Twenty years has gone so fast
Wake me up when September ends
Wake me up when September ends
Wake me up when September ends

The saints are coming, the saints are coming
I say no matter how I try, I realise there's no reply
The saints are coming, the saints are coming
I say no matter how I try, I realise there's no reply
A drowning sorrow floods the deepest grief, how long now?
Until the weather change condemns belief, how long now?
When the night watchman lets in the thief
What's wrong now?
Ho, hey
The saints are coming, the saints are coming
I say no matter how I try, I realise there's no reply
The saints are coming, the saints are coming
I say no matter how I try, I realise there's no reply
I say no matter how I try, I realise there's no reply
