Not really sure

From U2log.com

This address (Avenida Atlantico, 1702) is where Hotel Copacabana Palace is located, the most traditional hotel in Rio de Janeiro. All the U2 and U2 crew were hosted in there; Jonas Akerlund also shooted some scenes to the Walk On video on the roof. We think he mentioned their address in the lyrics because we heard that Bono had known Ali's pregnancy in Rio, in that weekend they were promoting ATYCLB in Brazil.

Dood, I played the song for my friend for the first time, and he speaks Spanish, and he was like "Huevo, what's an egg gotta do w/ this?"

And I didn't even tell him about our theory on PLEBA about it, so we are not alone, I guess...

I shall rephrase in a less witty manner

Okay, like.. the verses? "as long as the night is colored/blue and black" etc?
There's two Bonos singing! One's louder and singing the words as we can understand them, and the other one's singing something else that is largely indecipherable to me.
WHAT IS HE SAYING?!?!
 
Hehe...Kristie...it's sounds to me like it's just an echo...

and I'm still LMAO at HUEVO!!!!

That's all I can think of now...

*listens*
okay, the first and second verses have none
bonomonologue, none again
HUEVO!
but ALL the choruses and the second time he busts out the "blue and black" verse do too
and it's definately not an echo
but thanks for actually trying, hippy
