1. He probably told you that since Mary knew the song better than Bono. He screwed it up twice, while she had the correct lyrics and timing
  2. His words were exactly: "DO NOT watch it - I beg you. The initial "I tieeeeed myself" by Bono is the very only thing that's slightly good about it, the rest of it is just a murder"...
  3. Well he is overreacting
  4. Yeah it is pretty bad, I have to go and watch the Rose Bowl version to redeem the song now.
  5. I'm not one for looking on the bright side but I really didn't see anything wrong with that. It wasn't brilliant, but Bono still sounds pretty good and is looking not too bad either. He certainly looks a lot healthier on a stage. I don't know what it is, but he looks like a decrepit old man when he's not wearing ridiculous outfits and prancing around a stage.
  6. I finally watched it (only MOS).

    It's not that bad. Bono forgets the lyrics THREE times - I think that must be a record for his already high standards. He looks and sounds good though (he looks great, must admit), and the version is not that bad. I just missed Edge's solo and overall greatness and a little more "Adam" (?) presence. But it isn't that bad - and I am not one for the bright side either, as Ross says.
  7. here's Bono on Charlie Rose if anyone cares to watch it



  8. uhm dried out
  9. So I should be happy that I can't reach Youtube here in China to see Mos and Bono?
  10. Yes
  11. Larry's lookin old there
