About 6 years ago or so my grandfather went into a coma at age 89. He had a severe case of Alzheimer's and was expected not to live to be 90. As I saw my grandfather on his death bed, completely unconscious, I decided to for some unknown reason plug my ipod earbuds into his ear and play "where the streets have no name." In the middle of the song, his eyes opened up and he smiled. Keep in mind, that this was a man who never heard a U2 song in his life. With his eyes opened, I got to say my final goodbye to him even though he may not have been truly conscious. A week later he died on his 90th birthday.
I will never understand the true supernatural power of U2, but it was a really emotional moment that I will never forget. U2 brought my grandfather out of a coma- just enough for me to say goodbye to him.
