Philanthro-artists, the legendary musicians known as U2 show their support for the Iranian people at a concert on July 2nd, 2009 in Barcelona, Spain while singing their song: Sunday Bloody Sunday.
Flashing the now-symbolic color of green in solidarity with the Iranian movement, U2 even shares some words (or perhaps a poem) in Farsi with the world and Iranians, on their cylindrical screen on stage.
And to Bono and his bandmates we can only say: You Rock!
Sunday Bloody Sunday lyrics:
I cant believe the news today
Oh, I cant close my eyes and make it go away
How long…
How long must we sing this song?
How long? how long…
cause tonight…we can be as one
Tonight…
Broken bottles under childrens feet
Bodies strewn across the dead end street
But I wont heed the battle call
It puts my back up
Puts my back up against the wall
Sunday, bloody sunday
Sunday, bloody sunday
Sunday, bloody sunday (sunday bloody sunday…)
(allright lets go!)
And the battles just begun
Theres many lost, but tell me who has won
The trench is dug within our hearts
And mothers, children, brothers, sisters torn apart
Sunday, bloody sunday
Sunday, bloody sunday
How long…
How long must we sing this song?
How long? how long…
cause tonight…we can be as one
Tonight…
Tonight…
Sunday, bloody sunday (tonight)
Tonight
Sunday, bloody sunday (tonight)
(come get some!)
Wipe the tears from your eyes
Wipe your tears away
Wipe your tears away
I wipe your tears away
(sunday, bloody sunday)
I wipe your blood shot eyes
(sunday, bloody sunday)
Sunday, bloody sunday (sunday, bloody sunday)
Sunday, bloody sunday (sunday, bloody sunday)
(here I come!)
And its true we are immune
When fact is fiction
and tv reality
And today the millions cry
We eat and drink while tomorrow they die
The real battle yet begun (sunday, bloody sunday)
To claim the victory jesus won (sunday, bloody sunday)
On…
Sunday bloody sunday
Sunday bloody sunday…
