>...we were so commited to peace, we wanted for the belligerence on both sides to end, especially the republican terrorists who were injecting babies in prams with arsenic. We were so dissappointed to find out that Gerry Adams, the head of Sinn Féin which is the political wing of the, of the, you know, IRA, was actually a fan of our song, Sunday Bloody Sunday, which was meant as a PROTEST song against, like I said, against the sectarian conflict which everyone was tired of, at least in my school which was mixed. That's why I screamed out, if you see the concert in Colorado, "this is not a rebel song", but for a good year since its release it was thought of as that, as a reminder of the events in Derry, because we conveniently named the song after the historical date, gave it a martial drum beat and waited for a year until it reached the top ten and we had secured a distribution deal for north America before we came out to clear things out. And look how relevant it is now with the conflict in Israel and Palestine..people are so caught up in their convictions, they forget the only real differences are in our hearts, they forget how important peace is. And we're here to remind them. So yeah, it is one of those great misunderstood songs of rock history, like "Born in the USA". I initially wanted to write a trilogy of it, but Edge threatened to quit the band if I did. He is a great guitarist...and a good friend.
>>129580577Bono was right about literally everything. People hate him, because they feel personally called out and exposed by him. And they are right to do so, because they are bad people and should feel bad, and Bono is much better than any of them.
>>129580593nobody cares about your fag U2, faggot, except maybe Edge's guitar effects.
>>129580577Commited to the chicken

>>129580577Is there, or has there ever been, a more cringe popstar than Bono? Maybe Bob Geldoff?
what a timid little bloke
>>129584663I like Bono. He's both passionate about his beliefs, but also logical enough to change his beliefs when presented with further evidence.That's extremely rare to see with someone as loaded as Bono. Examples are him now being pro-nuclear energy, and regretting the whole "free album" chaos Is him waxing poetically obnoxious to many? Yeah. But I think he's more down-to-earth than most superstars. I've always found it a bit odd that many of his musical peers that came up around the same time despise him, despite never working with him. Jealousy? Idk. Recently read Guy Pratt's autobiography (Pink Floyd replacement bassist) and he takes some swings at Bono for not wanting to pay Ireland taxes. Meanwhile, the rest of the book is him snorting coke, smashing hotel rooms, and constant drunk driving. Can't help but feel a lot of these guys just channel all their anger for the music scene/their own lives at Bono.
