The Saints Are Coming

此歌是为卡特里娜飓风之后的新奥尔良筹集善款而作。

U2和Green Day乐队两大摇滚天团将破天荒的一起合作演出，届时他们将在新奥尔良市的路易斯安那巨蛋体育场上掀起一股摇滚风暴，奉献一台具有历史性意义的演出。

自从美国新奥尔良去年受飓风卡特里娜袭击后，当地的路易斯安那巨蛋体育场遭受了严重的破坏，此次两大摇滚乐团携手，希望能够借助自己乐团的号召力让更多人知道灾民仍然需要援助，从而可以为灾民做一些贡献。当晚，U2和Green Day将在重建后重新启用的橄榄球会场举行的橄榄球比赛前做暖场演出，他们演出的歌曲《The Saints Are Coming》还将录成唱片筹款。

这首歌翻唱自The Skids - The Saints Are Coming

此外 The Saints Are Coming曲调与曾被多次翻唱的经典名曲The House Of The Rising Sun相似，开头部分的歌词相同
