Goodbye you can keep this suit of lights
I'll be up with the sun
andnotcomingdown,andnotcomingdown,
andnotcomingdown



After the flood all the colors came out

Youv'e got to leave it behind
all that you fashion
all that you make
all that you build
etc.... Halle hallllllllllllllleeeeeuja


I'm a man not a child
a man who sees
the shadow behind your eyes


oh my my how you've grown

then burning down love, burning down love
and when I go there go there with you
its all I can do


and my shame and my shame You know I believe it

Naked flame she stands with a naked flame

There is at least a verse from every song on UF.

Can you hear me when I sinnnnnnnnngggggggg?

Italian opera part of Miss Sarajevo

Freedom smells like the scent of a new born babies head

Its the end of the world (he just sings his arse off)

Ohhhh you look so beautiful tonight..
Cant you see the beauty inside of me...

Electrical Storm - his voice just shines on the whole song.

too many to list!!!!
 
Agree with all of them so far, here's mine!

the final verse of if you wear that velvet dress. His voice is breaking and it sounds amazing. Sunlight...

Your blue room, the whole damn thing.

slug, the whole thing

a sort of homecoming, last verse and bridge.

and if the mountain should crumble... UF

Red Hill Mining town...
 
"Ohhhhh..." (WOWY)

The chorus of Kite

The beginning of If You Wear The Velvet Dress

Chorus of If God Will Send His Angels

All of Stay :heart: :heart: :heart:

And so many more...:drool:
 
The intro to 'Ultraviolet'

The climactic 'oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh' in 'With Or Without You'

Discotheque - 'You get confused/but you know it/yeah you hurt for it/work for it/love/you don't always show it'

The Ground Beneath Her Feet - 'go lightly down your darkened way/go lightly underground/I'll be down there in another day/I won't rest until you're found'

This might not be technically 'on record', but one of the last lines he sings in 'Love Is Blindness' live on ZooTV Sydney - 'take my heaaaaaaaart/blindness'

Gone - 'goooooodnight/you can keep this/suit of liiiiiiiiiights'

All of 'Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me Kill Me' - I just love how 'dirty' he sings it :wink:

The whole middle 8 of 'Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses' - 'took a drive in the dirty rain/to a place where the wind calls your name' :drool:

Acrobat "what are we gonna do it's all been said we need new ideas in the house every book has been read" I like it because it's weird, actually. like for the longest time I didn't know what he was saying, i just liked the way it sounded. and it's right before edge's amazing solo :drool:

Stole the words out of my mouth. Definitely one of my favorite moments in the entire catalogue.

Not a great moment, but very cool I think:

In "Wire" right after the lyric "...here we are again now place your bets..." you hear Bono laugh slightly, as if someone in the control booth cracked him up or something. In keeping with the spirit of the song, I think it makes him sound a bit crazy too.

Again, very cool. I've always liked that.

(I think I posted this last year)
 
Beneath the noise
Below the din
I hear your voice
Its whispering
In science and in medicine
''I was a stranger
You took me in''

Which I often do on a regular basis; when I put the album on it's a least a half hour before I've listen to the rest..

and I just love the laugh in the middle..
 
Baby (Please come home) : the very beginning "Baby, please come home" and then "yeaaaaaaah"

Bullet the Blue Sky: "slapping 'em down, one hundred, two hundred..."

On Rattle & Hum movie, during With or Without You when he sings "yeeeeah, we'll shine like stars on a summer night, we'll shine like stars on a winter night, one heart, one hope, one love..."
I wonder if I can get this version of the song somewhere??
 
Great Bono moments? I can think of so many.. just a few:

- Bono dressed up in that silver suit doing "Desire" during Zoo TV tour

- Bono walking through the VIPs at the Rock n Roll Haal of Fame induction as the band cranks out a killer version of "Until the End of the World" and then spraying champagne all over the place.

- During live performances of "Bad" Bono hanging on to the mic as he screams to the crowd "desolation.. isolation.. let it go...."

- Any time he nails those high "ooooooooo ooooooooo"'s send chills up my spine

- When Bono breaks out into a half-assed rap during "Bullet" on the Elevation tour.

- Bono singing "No More!" and getting the crowd to chant it back during the Live Aid concert in 1985....


There are soooooooo many great Bono moments..
