I'm English and please believe me most English people know Sunday Bloody Sunday was Barbaric. Innocent civilians were killed by British soldiers. It should never have happened and may it never happen again. The lyrics in this song is very clear, it's not about taking sides but calling for peace, "I won't heed the battle call, it's puts my back against the wall".

Three months later we were at the biggest rock concert either had ever been to - U2 touring the Joshua Tree.

I'm Brazilian, my father watched Live Aid in 1985 through television at a store in the mall of his hometown, the only with signal to the broadcast. He said about 40 people piled up close to each other to get a glimpse of the event and it was U2 opening for Dire Straits and then Queen, and that everyone wanted to sing and dance but there wasn't enough space inside for that so they all just smiled and sung most of the songs together. I hate not being alive at the time. Such a better, slower-paced life with the absolute best musicians to ever exist. I envy everyone who witnessed the 80s

Live Aid was massive for two bands in particular..U2 and Queen. For U2 it marked the first true worldwide exposure that would propel them up to the absolute top. For Queen, it marked a comeback from a slightly stalled career, to being universally acclaimed as the best live act in the world. U2 actually thought the performance had been a disaster, as Bono, in an attempt to get closer to the crowd, jumped off the stage and stayed down at crowd level for six minutes during the second song ‘Bad’, which meant they didn’t have time to perform ‘Pride’ which was their current single. That’s why he stomps off at the end of the song..he’s so upset that he’s wrecked’ the bands big moment! Of course, to us it just looked like pure drama and showmanship and went down as one of the days most iconic images…which in turn, just blew up their live reputation even more.

I have to say while we were watching this unfold I'd have preferred they had done bad as they did. When he jumped down and actually interacted with the girls from the crowd Wembley absolute blew up. Not many other artists on that level done as Bono did. I've said before many many people think their Under A Blood Red Sky performance was their best live. For many of us who love U2 this was their best ever, especially with Bad. Absolute legend of a performance

I saw them at a free concert in a Dublin park around '83, and my then boyfriend's band supported them at another concert, it was all very local, but there was an excitement about them, i think people could feel they were special and were going to be really big. There were hundreds of bands in Dublin then but they stood out.
Listen to the lyrics "I won't heed the battle call, it puts my back up against the wall". This is not a war song or a rebel song. It does quite rightly condemn what happened on Sunday Bloody Sunday. Innocent civilians were shot dead by British soldiers. It was barbaric and should not have happened and may it never happen again. This song is not about taking sides but calling for peace.

They had a confidence, determination, clearly going to the top. Different from anybody else that day. From directing the stage cameras to leaving the stage. Queen (a superb performance) were more - look what we have done - and U2 were - look what we're going to do. One of the rare days the musical time continuum met head on.

I used to run and not eat...well, I stood to lose something precious to me unless I recovered...I was going to lose my place at drama school unless I put on weight. I stopped not eating but carried on running and this song was what I'd listen to on my walkman. It genuinely inspired me to fight the illness and eat after I got home from each run.

Someone has most likely already mentioned it but the professionalism at all levels here is incredible, from both the band and the stage crew. I mean, man, look at that maneuver between 4:00 and 4:10 when Bono walks back up to the stage. There's one guy on the landing just below gathering his mic cable and tossing it back up onto the stage while a second stagehand collects the remaining slack and pulls it up and over not only a mic stand but also up and over another band member! It's a small thing but you can tell that everyone, EVERYONE is firing on all cylinders here. Bravo!

What a concentration of great bands. Something like that would no longer be possible today
Love U2 and was a fan before this beautiful event as well as all the U2 fans there. I know so many are saying the Queen was thee band of this concert but all of the bands did their best and I am grateful to all of them for giving a voice to a very important cause. Good on everyone who showed up! Thank you for showing people how to Give 🌍 and how to Love...♥️
Incredible! Looks like U2 stole the show with emotion. Every act was so good. Any one of them would have been a top 5 concert in my life, but all of those artists in one day. Unbelievable, my mind is blown. This has to be the greatest concert of all time.

That bass is awesome, Adam is underrated as hell
In 1984, they were our college band. We saw them at Massey Hall in Toronto. Capacity was 3000 people. It was a spiritual experience. A few years earlier, I saw them play a bar in London Ontario. (Call The Office) Their manager, Paul McGuiness, knew what a huge moment this was for his "little band." I remember hearing this performance in my car on my radio. If only Mick and Keith were getting along this would have been a perfect night.
Because of Bono the wireless microphone was made

@@gustasanti6768 The "cable boy" is Greg Carroll, who died in a motorcycle accident in Dublin in 1986. Sadly... 😔Greg Carroll was a close friend of Bono and Ali, and from 1984 to 1986 he was the roadie for the band. ❤️
The guys are only in their mid twenties here and already they are superstars. Up the lads from Dublin
'85 was a good year. God I feel old :(

You read my mind.
And now again, nowadays this song is so bloody true. I can not cry for that anymore. My tear channels are so dried off for sorrow now. I just hate that stupidity of attacking to innocent ones.
I miss the 80s and I wasn’t even born till long afterwards.
2020. Need may more bands of gut and truth. Thank you 1985.
Que atmosfera incrível lindo ver essa platéia dos anos 80 🇧🇷🇧🇷
I am not a big U2 fan, but I like this song. They used to play it really well live.

No f’ing modern day equal to this brilliance. Timeless. Legend. Nuff said
Best of the best, best voice ever and the song is so magnetic , majestic!!
La canción que más motiva y emociona a Bono. Es puro sentimiento y corazón.
I absolutely cannot believe how anybody can’t be totally big on U2!!!!!
Even people who hate this genre of music RESPECT this band AND the meaning behind this song. Legendary.
I was at Nou Camp in Barcelona during the 360° Tour. This song came and all of a sudden, all the attendance started singing Sunday Bloody Sunday, almost 90000 people singing along - me included, of course -. Bono wasn’t singing, the crowd did it all. I still remember it with goosebumps down my spine as one of the best experiences I’ve been through in a live performance.
GOD will take his Love for your music ,of his generations a living GOD, FOREVER.♥️😪🙏🧎
Geez, imagine queen and u2 doing a tour together, that would have been awesome. You can see the fire and passion in Bono...was out to prove something.
80's Come back!!!
Bono once said in an interview he was purposefully slowing down his singing in the beginning, to calm down the Edge, who was a little nervous and subsequently played to fast

To me, one of the best performances of this day, right after Queen. I was already a fan, and had already seen them in concert once. The first of four times. Fantastic.
Outside of Queen's performance that day, this is the best performance of Live Aid!
