what i found most interesting about this video is that Edge has changed the guitar for this song. The past 3 tours EDGE used the telecaster and now Edge is back to the original guitar he played SBS on which is the fender strat.��

this hasent been done since the zoo tv tour and they only played SBS a few times during this time.� On the Joshua Tree tour and every tour before that the song was played on the stratocaster. ]]> feeds@kickapps.com (italian_macphisto) http://community.u2.com/sreply/204267 Tue, 07 Jul 2009 22:24:01 PST http://community.u2.com/reply/204124/t/Sunday-Bloody-Sunday-Goes-Green-for-Iran.html#reply-204124 feeds@kickapps.com (heather118) http://community.u2.com/sreply/204124 Tue, 07 Jul 2009 17:47:29 PST http://community.u2.com/reply/204123/t/Sunday-Bloody-Sunday-Goes-Green-for-Iran.html#reply-204123 feeds@kickapps.com (heather118) http://community.u2.com/sreply/204123 Tue, 07 Jul 2009 17:45:35 PST http://community.u2.com/reply/203184/t/Sunday-Bloody-Sunday-Goes-Green-for-Iran.html#reply-203184

The display in this video looks pretty much like Persian : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PR8d1qM-GqE but it can't read it (i'm not iranian myself), some people on Facebook tell it starts with "Listen, Listen, Listen".

Definitly I would say it IS a tribute to the recent events in Iran.
Although the whole script cannot be read very well in this video, but yes it starts with "Listen, Listen, Listen". From the few words I can read, I guess it must be an alteration of an old poem (The Lament of the reed-flute) by the 13th century Persian poet Rumi. Here's a translation of the original poem :

are they tributes or sensationalist music videos it's hard to decide If you are having trouble deciding, perhaps letting history be your guide would be appropriate.

Sunday Bloody Sunday has always been a song about peace but a quarter century after it was written seems like it's still taking on new meanings - even before Tuesday's show, the Iranconnection had been made online. When young Neda Agha-Soltan was killed during the protests, it sparked a series of online video tributes.... all to the soundtrack of Sunday Bloody Sunday. ]]> feeds@kickapps.com (bigwave) http://community.u2.com/topic/8398 Thu, 02 Jul 2009 14:04:19 PST
