U2/GREEN DAY-THE SAINTS ARE COMING-USA PROMO CD-R
The first track released to promote the "U218 Singles" compilation album is a track recorded with Green Day covering the Scottish punk band, the Skids song "The Saints Are Coming". Promotional copies of the song first appeared at USA radio stations on September 27, 2006. The promotional disc was shipped to radio in a clear slimline jewel case, with no artwork or tray cards. EU promotional versions of the disc began appearing soon thereafter, most also without any accompany artwork.
The commercial single was used to raise funds for the Music Rising Campaign which was formed to bring music back to Hurricane Katrina ravaged New Orleans. Prior to the release of the studio version of this song, U2 and Green Day performed on September 25, 2006 at the opening home game of the New Orleans Saints NFL football team. The event helped celebrate the return of the team to it's home stadium, the New Orleans Super Dome, which had sustained major damage from Katrina the previous year. During that appearance, The Edge joined Green Day on stage to perform "Wake Me Up When September Ends", and then the whole band with Green Day performed "The Saints are Coming" and concluded with a short performance of "Beautiful Day". The live performance of "The Saints Are Coming" became the b-side for the release. TRACKS:
