It's also notable that he is interested in everything in music, current and old, like the Renaissance man he is.
    (I know it's no particular order but he did write Miserere which was the first one and half of XXX is taken from American Soul... he's still very sure of himself ) But I do share your sentiments entirely, just thought that this point was funny

    I know, "humble" for Bono standards, but even if the list has 2 of his collaborations, in his letters he only praises the other artists.
  3. Speaking of Miserere, when you hear the great Pavarotti singing and then 2003 Bono with a frog on his throat coming next... it's very cringe-worthy.

    A Black Skinhead snippet would be... interesting
  5. Hm?
    Where is the Song from Dire Straits or Mark Knopfler?
    Is it possible - that no one Song from those magnificent catalogue didn’t touch Bono and his years of life.
    For me - strange.

    If these letters go by U2com standards, we'll get them by November 2021

  11. Nightswimming is a beautiful song, nice pick there.
  12. Terrific performer as well. Hoping she gets more live performance opportunities sooner rather than later.
