Hidden History By: Cailin M Issue No. 25 January 2014 Book Review Rebekah H. and Kelsey M. The book we read was The Wide-Awake Princess, by E.D. Baker. In the story Gwendolyn, the eldest and most beautiful princess in Treecrest, has a curse come upon her on her sixteenth birthday. The curse sends her and the whole kingdom to sleep for a hundred years. Only her little sister, Annabell, is left awake because of her power that no magic affects her. Annie is left with figuring out how to save her sister with help of the new knight, Liam. Annie needs to find Gwen’s true love to awaken her, but she is not sure who it is. Is it Prince Digby? Is it Prince Clarence? Is it Prince Andreas? Or is it the enchanted Prince Beldegard? Find out when you read The Wide-Awake Princess. We both loved this book because Princess Annie is an independent girl who follows her dreams and never gives up! Hidden History By: Cailin M. Though you may not know it, facts about history can be found in modern day music. Take the song, Viva La Vida, by “Coldplay” for instance. The plot of the song is about ancient history and how a kingdom fell under attack and was overthrown. The king is reflecting on the war. Another song that reflects on history is, Sunday Bloody Sunday, by “U2” which is about the Irish Bloody Sunday, not to be confused with the Russian Bloody Sunday. Here is a game that you can play by yourself. Turn on a radio station for 15 minutes or longer. Set up a tally count on a piece of paper. Then, every time you hear a historical reference made in a song, add a tally mark. What is your highest score? Have fun “rocking out!” IHeartRadio: the New Music Site By: Priscilla N.

Most people probably think that the Bald eagle is far and away better, but if you compare the two side by side you can see how nice the golden eagle really is. Since both eagles were equally impressive in their own right and since they were very different despite both being eagles, it was like comparing apples to oranges. The fan voting came out to votes of 9-3 for the bald eagle for cool facts and 8-5 for the golden eagle for appearance. If you compare the two side by side unbiased the title of best eagle is really up for grabs!

We surrender too easily to the blues. We, if we're not careful, are bleeding all over the world." — Bono 25 YEARS OF WAR: LOVE ON THE ALBUM WAR Jim Henke tells @U2 what he thinks made War U2's 'rst great album'@U2 March 01, 2008by Scott Calhoun To mark the silver anniversary of the release of War, we asked Jim Henke, chief curator of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and Museum and former music editor for Rolling Stone magazine, to help us take a look back. Henke was there when U2 was setting out for America for the rst time. He wrote the rst prole of the band to appear in a major U.S. magazine and put these 50 states on notice with his Feb. 19, 1981, article "U2: Here Comes the 'Next Big Thing.'" Two years later, even though U2 had war on the brain, Henke's June 9, 1983, prole made the point that "Blessed Are the Peacemakers." Henke would eventually write several stories about U2 for Rolling Stone while on staff from 1977 to 1992, including proles, reviews and the Rolling Stone interview with The Edge in 1988. There was a time when "New Year's Day" and "Sunday Bloody Sunday" were new releases, not the stadium-pounding anthems concert crowds expect to hear today.

  • PSCI 11 the Gospel According to U2 Winter Study 2008
    PSCI 11 The Gospel According to U2 Winter Study 2008 Professor Darel E. Paul PSCI 11 Stetson g19 Griffin 6 597-2327 TWR 10am-noon [email protected] Office Hrs.: Mondays 2:00pm - 4:00pm and by appointment Course Description It has been said that U2 is the "world's greatest rock band" – but is it also (unknown to most) the world's greatest – and most unusual – Christian rock band? This course explores the theology, spirituality and politics of U2 expressed through the group's songs, stage performances and human right campaigns. We will travel from the band's origins in the Shalom Christian Fellowship in Dublin to their overtly Christian second album October (1981); the culmination of their superstardom in Joshua Tree (1987); through their techno and ultra-ironic 1990s marked by Zoo-TV, PopMart and Bono's "mock the devil" phase as Mr. MacPhisto; and a return to their roots in All That You Can't Leave Behind (2000) and How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb (2004). Along the way, we will listen to a lot of U2, watch some videos and tour footage – but it's not all fun and games. We will also read serious theological and philosophical tracts on U2 lyrics and explore the band's complicated interweaving of faith, sexuality, grace, fame, doubt, justice, and the meaning of America in a way which makes them a surprisingly popular and poignant spiritual voice in our superficial and materialistic age. We will also delve into the group's human rights and social justice work, from Band Aid in the ‘80s to (Product)RED today, and in particular explore Bono's Christian social justice moorings.

I certainly felt elated and worshipful listening to The Joshua Tree, though I wasn’t entirely sure it was right to feel that way. This was just after The Joshua Tree had broken U2 worldwide enough to reach rural Minnesota, and just as the album and film Rattle and Hum, according to most critics, showed they had feet of clay.

  • Example Protest Song Analysis
    Lessons that put you a class ahead www.tomorrowsclass.com [email protected] +061 0427 340 757 Resource title: Example Analysis - Sunday Bloody Sunday by U2 U2’s Sunday Bloody Sunday, written in 1983 and recorded for their War album, is a song about how senseless the conflict and violence between protestants and catholics in Northern Ireland is. For much of the 20th century, Northern Ireland was governed by the British parliament. Many catholics in Northern Ireland didn’t like this - they wanted Northern Ireland to rule itself or be part of Ireland. The IRA (Irish Republican Army) killed many British soldiers and people in Northern Ireland during the 1970s and 80s to try and force Britain out of Northern Ireland. Protestant groups also killed IRA members. The song is called Sunday Bloody Sunday after one particular event which happened on Sunday, 30th of January, 1972 where 26 peaceful protesters were shot dead by British soldiers. The single event sparked much of the violence which came later. The song begins with U2’s signature jangly guitar making an almost mournful sound. Bono sings that “I can’t believe the news today” and wonders “how long must we sing this song,” condemning the fact that this violence seems to go on forever. The first verse finishes with a call to action that “we can be as one” - violence is unnecessary. The second verse looks at the impact of violence. “Broken bottles under children’s feet” is a metaphor for the way violence has created a culture of conflict that children are raised in.

  • U2: Unexpected Prophets by STEVEN R
    Copyright © 2006 The Center for Christian Ethics 81 U2: Unexpected Prophets BY STEVEN R. HARMON Arguably the most successful rock band in the world, U2 not only cries out against injustice, but also dares to imagine an alternative in light of the Christian vision. The band searchingly examines the distortions of our world and proclaims with Scripture “the place that has to be believed to be seen” and “where the streets have no name.” Will we hear them? he function of a Hebrew prophet is to bring “the divine reality di- rectly to bear on the sphere of moral conduct,” Walther Eichrodt fa- Tmously noted.1 Prophets envision and proclaim how God’s goals for the world are relevant to the way we live in the present. Since that is what theologians, whether they minister in a local church or teach in the acad- emy, seek to do, we expect to hear prophetic words from them. Yet even the most widely recognized pastors and professors do not have the ears of as many people as do vocalist Bono (Paul Hewson), guitar- ist The Edge (Dave Evans), bass player Adam Clayton, and drummer Larry Mullen, Jr., members of the Irish rock band U2. These Christian be- lievers, arguably the most successful rock band in the world with a disco- graphy and touring history spanning a quarter of a century, are unexpected prophets. In their music they imagine, through their glimpses of the divine reality, a world that might be. Several recurring themes mark the band’s imagination as distinctively Christian. GROUNDED IMPLICITLY IN WORSHIP Healthy Christian theology must be rooted in the worship of the Church: “The rule of praying is the rule of believing,” the ancient theolo- gians maintained.2 Although U2’s music is written not for services of 82 Singing Our Lives Christian worship but for concert tour performances in arenas and stadi- ums, it still has an implicitly liturgical context.

It began in Vancouver on 12 May 2017 and concluded in Sao Paolo on 25 October 2017. The centrepiece of each show featured the band playing The Joshua Tree (1987), frequently described as U2’s “breakthrough” album, in order and in its entirety. The concerts most often began with four songs released before The Joshua Tree: “Sunday Bloody Sunday”, “New Year’s Day”, “Bad” and “Pride”. These were followed by the eleven tracks of The Joshua Tree1 and two encores (or one extended encore) including popular songs from the band’s more recent work and, as the tour progressed, some tracks from their next album, Songs of Experi- ence (2017).
