KeithFK, good job, man! It's funny - you can't always tell where a *singer* is from when he's singing (English? Irish? American? Australian? Scot?) But then when they *talk*, it's obvious. So when you started talking in the middle of the video and I realized you actually were Irish like U2, I loved it even more! Good show! - Jamie, USA
Nice try, but ya gotta have a better singer. The lyrics were good but I just can't get past the voice. My opinion only... I know it don't mean squat, but so far A-ha's "Take On Me" video and Bonnie Tylers "Total Eclipse of the Heart" are the bench mark for literal videos. Also Tears For Fears "Head Over Heels".
I agree. I don't think he's a terrible singer, but he doesn't sound even a tiny bit like Bono, and his voice is far too distinctive. If his voice were more generic, or even better if he could sound like Bono, it would work better.

I'm not sure he's Irish. In fact, I'm certain he's not. He sounds like an English guy doing an Irish accent.

Hey thanks for apologising, I guess everyone on youtube ISNT a dick!
For the record, I'm a U2 fan too - have been since '86, have all the albums etc etc

Anyhoo, its only a joke.
