there should be millions of subscribers to your channel! For a u2 fanatic since '83, when Under A Blood Red Sky was released (I was 13 years old at the time) your channel is a gold mine of incredible u2/Steph awesomeness! Your playing is so fantastic! Thanks for doing what you do. I'm so glad the Edge blew your mind w/ Beautiful Day when you were in your teens. You're blowing my mind now! Keep it up!!

this is a great cover of the performance on under a blood red sky. ever since I was a kid I loved under a blood red sky because of its apocalyptic sounds of hope. That's what it meant to me.

I watched this video dozens of times when the real MTV (now junkTV) came out in the 80s. Absolutely an incredible video and song.

40 years ago, The Edge was a genius xD. Iconic song. Great performance. Congrats.

So Brilliant, the tone , the feel , the notes You put a massive smile on my face today Was jumping about like I did back in 1984

Agreed...they were a little departure from the masses of the new wave sound of the 80s and it was refreshing. Nobody sounded like the Cult.

Jesus christ!! Dude you rock. As a parent I would want my daughter to rock like you. Your folks must be proud. Damn that was badass

Just magnificent! Thank you! Just waiting for my shift to end so I get home, grab my Les Paul and try to learn from your video. Saw the video of you playing with the band. What a thrill! I could not stop smiling and cheering for you! Amazing!!

June 5th. 1983 concert at Red Rocks Amphitheater... I WAS THERE !!!!

Edge is the "Mad Scientist" just like you Steph, you are a "Mad Scientist" on these songs you play! Absolutely beautifully perfect!!

clavier,basse,guitare,cette fille est extraordinaire.une vraie artiste.waaw

Love this version Steph. I play bass myself and love this song. It’s great to see and hear your implementation of the subtle changes to Adam’s bass line. I’d love to see an in depth interview with him about how he creates his bass lines and how he has tweaked then over the years. I guess as he improved as a player he saw where he could enhance those classic lines that he laid down so many years ago and when so young. I’m a similar age to the U2 guys slightly younger but well remember them emerging on the scene. I enjoy your covers Steph and you are clearly a talented multi instrument musician. Another song that Adam’s line changed quite significantly is ‘Even Better Than The Real thing’. I don’t see too many covers of both versions. I know you did the earlier version and I’d love to see you do the updated version. All the best to you.

Hi Steph, great Job 👍 This song has so much power!

Genioooooo !!!!!🤩

Just watched this for the 35th time and you are truly amazing.

Very Creative!! Excellent work!! You have tremendous skill and talent!

This song is a great example of how Adam Clayton functions as more than the bassist in the U2. He is like the band’s rhythm guitarist and that allows the Edge to float above it all, playing all his unique riffs. Edge always talks about the War album as the one where he didn’t use much echo but it’s certainly all over this song. I love his playing but you almost have to be a mathematician to play like him, which is frustrating if you suck at math like I do. 😀

Mathematician is right - especially during those sixteenth note harmonics in the second verse! It all falls apart if even one note is slightly out of place, as it’s so tightly locked in with the delay. And Edge plays it perfectly almost every single time.

He did use delay on NYD it’s a dotted 8th at 330 ms and heavy reverb he used a delay on the Yamaha CP70 as well at about 360 ms
