U2 - Bad Live ( longest version ever ) 

In my humble opinion, this is the greatest rock-n-roll song.

My local radio station calls this song "The Best 7 Minutes of Radio". I now call this "The Best 18 Minutes of The Internet!"

The build up with the music and the emotion with bonos singing is next level. There's no bands in this day and age that does this.

Saw Bad performed live early on in "TUF" tour at Apollo Stadium, Adelaide on the Oz leg of the tour. Wow - were they amazing & the atmosphere was simply electric. It was the night U2 famously played "Gloria" in-full twice.

This song reminds me of few people in my life that were victims of depression which eventually made them took their life....it makes me sad and helpless......helpless that I wasn't able to help them in their moments desperation and darkness...

Would like to see video from this....Love vidoes BAD

The Edge is the guitarist that gets the most out of his guitar while playing the least..It's amazing the amount of emotion he captures with just a few notes .... This song and A Sort of Homecoming are my favorite U2 songs and of course The Unforgettable Fire is my favorite U2 Album ...I got nothin else to say ! 👽

I think I could listen to Edge’s guitar work on this song all day. It’s bloody brilliant.

I was at this show in 85. it was awesome. My first time seeing them live.

When U2 was 100% passion, 100% energy, and gave All on stage.

I don't even bother to listen to any other version of Bad, but this one. I play it so much, cause it's one of the best live recordings, ever. I love Bono's monologue.

Love Mr. Bono

BEAUTIFUL SONG U2 LOVE THIS SONG BONO

I loved U2 before watch them performing this song at LIVE AID, but after that moment I fell in love forever. They are my favourite band, and this is my favourite live song.

Caught this tour in Philadelphia just b4 this show or after a day or so. They had Bruce join him then to I believe Perform Stand by me, Bono had a broken wrist from falling off a stage during a show, these guys never let ya down especially in these snowy filled years. Those from the 80's would understand how snowy those days were,,,, Rock on

when I heard them do this at Live Aid I was sold on them

Edge best guitarist and singer ever seen 💗

This song vibrates through my heart everytime I hear it! Thank you U2

My most favorite song by one of the best rock groups ever. Its deep and beautiful. Stay awake.

CANNOT STOP PLAYING THIS VERSION CONTINUALLY , IT IS THE MIX BETWEEN BAD & RUBY TUESDAY . GOD BLESS THE IRISH .

Never gets old. Never.

I have not argued over bands since I was in the 8th grade. How funny.

This is one of my all time favorite song from U2. God I miss going to concerts. I had so much fun when I was younger. Theresnotbing that fills my heart more than music! Thanks for all the fabulous years.

U2's performance of bad in Rutherford NJ Longest version is extroidinary!Anyone have the actual video and not just the soundtrack?Id LOVE to see it posted in near future?Thanks to whomever did post this song its the best!

Definitely my favourite U2 song So simple in structure, yet conveys so much emotion!!! U2 - Bad

Splendid !!! Unforgettable !! The best version !

Oh God i feel it. So amazing. i love when Bono ad-libs. They are so real through and through. You feel the energy and passion. Most unique band ever i'm positive. Definitely my favorite of all time. i only wish i could see this. i love U2.

18 minutes of pure music. MAGNIFICENT!

This may be the greatest version of this fantastic song. Makes me think of lots of things and lots of people past and present. I always liked U2 and saw them in concert several times and wondered why Bono didn't always sing the songs like the studio version. Then I realized the brilliance of Bobo and the entire group and appreciated them even more.

There's always been a respect between U2 and Bruce Springsteen. Long may it continue. Oh, it means nothing to other people I know, but this is one of my favourite U2 songs, and it always sounds better live.

This is what I miss and want back in LIVE U2

made me cry.

Not really news but this is the best U2 song ever.

Tears Tears Tears

he souds exactly the same live as he does on his records he is just born to sing he is truly talented

The ads are killing me! They’re completely killing the vibe! 😑

I love it when U2 weaves other songs into their own. I'm not a big Stones fan, but this was great nonetheless. One time much later, Bono, dressed as Mephisto the Devil, sang Help! by the Beatles with no musical accompaniment. That was chilling.

I don't even have to listen to this before I comment...Bad is one of my favorite U2 songs. Thxs. for sharing this.

difficulties teaches us...growing gives us room to do better...creativity comes from within...heart is what keeps us alive...the soul is what helps us all to persivere...love is the glue that binds us all together and helps us to survive...guns destroy innocence...drugs are a desiese...i cannot spell...noone worries about poverty until they are forced to live it..anyone can sing if you loose your inhbitions...God is my ultimate judge...war is not the answer...hate is ugly...some people have eyes yet remain blind...caring is easy to do...when you make a choice live with it or get rid of it...its always something if its not one thing its entirely another...anything good in your life is worth waiting for...extending your hand in kindness is almost always appreciated...there is good in everyone...if you can see look...if you can hear listen first...if you can speak talk about it...if you have money donate a little bit...if you only have time to give use that time wisely...if you could care less dont...trust in yourself first then follow your heart...seek truth joy love and happiness...reject bitterness and turmoil...give someone a hug it maybe their last one...never listen to negativity...follow your heart. stay sweet dispite how you feel inside when another has wronged you and most importantly give another your hand lift someone up not down. just me..i know im a bit weird to worry like i do but god make me like this...lol...lol

STILL SUPERB AFTER ALL THESE YEARS!

I have been a massive fan since the early 80s. I also play guitar and this song is my favorite. Its a bitch to get right but when you do you realize the talent of that man the Edge.

Simply amazing. I was at the show the night before this one. I've been following this particular band and of course all their other endeavors and I can't wait till I get to see them once again this upcoming Summer. Bono has been going thru some tough times but these boys are raw. I just love the quality of their performances. They have truly grown for the best in all areas as a band and as individuals.

What a performance! Beautiful song, love this rare long live version, and I love it when Bono includes snippets of other songs in their own during their live performances.

The way they play off one another is otherworldly.

If I Could, I Would, "Let It Go" !!!!

Best ever song from best ever band. end of story

Almost my favorite song ever.....

seen theese boys 7 times, they are my favorite band by far, Keep making music, THE FANTASTIC FOUR !

First time I saw U2 live was at the former Apollo Stadium, Adelaide, South Australia on thir first tour of Australia in mid 80s. It was like a religious experience - it was incredible. To cut a long story short, the band played Gloria twice. They finished with tbe second (full) Gloria as Bono thought his voice was a bit horse for the first rendition. Band was back for the Love Comes toTown World post Rattle & Hum - & they were again awesome. Back then,the greatest band in the world. Bad has always been a fave. & I saw it live on the tv in that famous Live Aid performance

I was there. It was a stunning show. I remember thinking during this song "this was what it must have been like to see the Stones in '69." Passion and power.

Gosh! How i LOVE and ADORE this band!!!

It just doesn't get better dan dat u2 live class act imaging sitting down and saying to de rest of de band lets rite a classic respect

true song ......

I was in Dublin 2009 to see the 360 show. I went to a skate shop (called Skate City Temple Bar) to find out where to skate. I asked the older guys with short buzzed grey hair if they skated, and they they said they did, I instantly had had much respect. Dude asked me why I was in Dublin, I told him I was there too see my favorite band . He asked me if I knew my history ? I thought so? "Do you know who Googie is?......well then you don't know your history. He is my younger brother, the one on the cover of the Boy & War album, and now takes photos of the band." I busted out my guitar and played this song, Andy Rowen sang along. My hands were shaking, it was so awesome. Got me an Aching baby tattoo above the skate shop, swam with a seal, and kissed a hot girl at the Temple Bar pub.

I fell in love with a woman who was trapped in a dark world of slavery. I sang this song over her, prayed for her life and pleaded for her spirit to be set free. I wept, I refused to sleep at night and I wept Bono's words over her. She is free and that life has faded away.

You don't get better than this

And then the earth shifted to never be the same again.

Buen grupo , buena banda , buena música.. gracias U2.......

Please keep comments civil no personal attacks please. U2 fans and non U2 fans if you don't like this video and song you can say so however do not bully people with abusive words thanks :-)

masterpiece

This is GOLD!

The best band of the World.Only !!!!

U2 is still #1, Bono is the greatest singer ever, The Edge is too, Adam Clayton is the greatest bassest ever, and Larry Mullen Jr. is the greatest drummer that ever was...!!! True creativity takes loads and loads of hard work, dedication, and sacrifice. U2 fans just cannot help loving U2.Luckily we get to hear their music !!! Bloody good then. I'm not sleeping, Oh no no no.

I so love this song Bad and what Bono said about everything in the beginning of this concert

18:17 of pure heaven! Love listening to all the old and rare versions of this song.

i thanked God...He let U2 come down for us

Mother of God, when Edge finally does pick it up at 15.54 it is close to divine intervention ...

What a song. Miss U2 from those days. Now there over hill

U2 is sooooooooo awesome and amazing!!!!!!!! I love them so much!!!!!!!!! They are my religion!!!!!!!!!

Hello LuieU2 No problems....thxs. for your appreciation...lol...hope your Christmas was Lovely. Sometimes, facebook isn't all it's cracked up to be!!! LOL....have a BeU2tiful Day don't let it get away !!!

The repetitive lick that The Edge plays in the body of the song (that is not on the studio version) just slays me. I could listen to it go on forever. Bono's "whooo-whooo's" in the 13:15 area... Yikes!
