Ahh but have you had confirmation from Bono to prove that?? My girlfriend gave birth last month and we are still awaiting confirmation from Bono that we can name the child Harrison. We cant apply for a pasport without it

A tree fell in a forest, but, as Bono was not there to confirm the auditory evidence of said deforestation, no-one heard it.

Bono wasn't nearly as bad in this as in the new Leonard Cohen one. That one seriously suffered from the whole U2 thing.

Quite intresting the Shane and Sinead relationship. I was watching an old Late Show thing i have on dvd from2000 I think where he is saying the whole herion bust thing was her just trying to get media attention and if she had really been a friend she wouldnt have done it. Then I read an interview with Shane from 2003 where he had come off herion where he basically he says that she is truely a great woman who had saved his life.

Not sure if an official recording exists. You can download the song here (following the link "Mp3-fil finns här"), but the quality is pretty poor, it seems to have simply been extracted from the video that is floating around.

I like the Collection 81-91 - very nice compilation of older songs.
