  1. He can definitely still sing
  2. On SOE he have a stronger pitch in his voice in the low and middle, but I am most impressed with his singing in the end of BOYH. He sound like 80s Bono in his voice.

    360 he was incredible.

    One of the things i've noticed this year for the first time and I wonder what it is or if anyone else has noticed, is that Bono appears to struggle in the lower ranges of his voice now, whenever he tries to sing WOWY for example in the first verse his voice is very croaky and cracks a lot.

    This is one thing that never happened on 360, and I wonder if he can overcome that and be more consistent and smoother in his lower register?
  5. I think it’s obvious he saw a vocal coach either before or during 360. Maybe he hasn’t seen him or her since? If not, maybe he should again?
  6. Oh wow, beautiful voice. Go Bono and the Edge! Brilliant performance. The passion and energy is so captivating. The people in Berlin were very lucky.
  7. I think his voice now is so much better than the 360, vertigo and elevation tour. It recovered so much. Specially on Joshua tour, i went to both concerts in Mexico and it was amazing.
  8. I'd say he's most probably seeing him/her again because he is singing well (besides the tempo/rhythm issue which I adressed months back). It's just his voice that isn't as strong in the middle range as it used to - but no specialist can fix that. It's mainly an age issue and Bono ain't turning younger anytime soon Im afraid

    He hit more high notes on 360, but on IE tour his voice was more cleaner and fuller.
    Bono also did alot better job on the older songs on IE tour, WOWY, Pride, WTSHNN was much better on the vocals on IE tour.

    The America long note on pride is amazing...
    just 2 years ago!...
  11. Donst forget to listen to Streets, the first video in the list
  12. Hoping we see a positive change in his voice for the upcoming tour. The JT tour of last year while still very good vocally is slightly concerning. I hope he pulls it out the bag for this upcoming tour
