did you know? During the recording of "The Electric Co." for Under A Blood Red Sky, Bono included a snippet of Stephen Sondheim's "Send In The Clowns". When the LP was released, U2 failed to get permission and pay the appropriate licensing and royalty fees to include that piece of Sondheim's tune on the album. When Sondheim objected, U2 agreed to pay a $50,000 (US) penalty for the unauthorized use and to press all future releases with a new version that did not include the snippet.
