To be one, to be united is a great thing. But to respect the right to be different is maybe even greater.
It was the late 70’s when some kids in Dublin met in a house to put on the band, afterwards, he took the name U2, becoming one of the most important planetary rock band!
The credit was to Larry, and definitely do not want to deprive him of this undeniable right, but soon the figure to emerge was a skinny and “disheveled” little boy who, over the years, became a leader of unquestioned charm and charisma.
U2 are 4 … does not exist for a true fan’s the statement “Bono and U2”! But nevertheless anyone can appreciate the immense power of that “genius” rebel who moved his “fire” and his inner passion in the lyrics and the live shows.
All fans recall, perhaps with a little of nostalgia, his climbing with a white flag, symbol of peace, his diving into the audience, and his pungent phrases that did not spare anyone, his mischievous and provocative expressions towards the camera ZooTV; people who came on stage to reduce the distance between him and those who had made him such and, last but not least, his humanitarian work that continues to this day.
Bono has created alter ego as MacPhisto, one who is allowed to disturb world leaders calling them by phone, he brazenly mocked the world he belonged to with the damn rock star The Fly, he presented himself dressed with an unlikely T-shirt “all muscle” on one of the biggest stages ever.
After more than 30 years, after the first appearance as a singer of U2, perhaps the time is past for him, and his way of life and the show too had become more “mature”, less flashy, less brash … but he is always there standing by his trusted friends who have shared these years with him and that we hope can continue to do so long!
Yes, I sometimes fail, but at least I’m willing to experiment
This video is for him, for our singer.
Happy Birthday Bono, we love you!
Thanks
