One of my favourite U2 songs, just brilliant all the way through. Bono really shows his range at the end as well.

Edge should wear a dress shirt and have longer hair more often...

From the words of wikipedia Steve Averill, a punk rock musician and family friend of Clayton's, had suggested six potential names from which the band chose "U2" for its ambiguity and open-ended interpretations, and because it was the name that they disliked the least.

two word: greatest band

[Monomahospaok]

October and the trees are stripped bare

Of all they wear.

What do I care?

October and kingdoms rise

And kingdoms fall

But you go on

And on.

OMG give me some VanHalen to listen to before my penis shrivels up and falls off.

@ReedOfBalm the u2 was a spyplane and there was an incident where one was shot down. that's where the name came from

U2 or U-2 also refers to U.S. and Soviet spy planes and fighter planes. The 1908 german u-2 was a early submarine that was scrapped....the nazi's never used it.
