Bono very good on this.
DMX, not so much. It's like he barely has the oxygen to deliver the words.
But I was never a fan of the latter tbh.

Really like Bono’s voice on this. I get almost Michael Hutchence “Slide Away” vibes.

Most of the comments on the song are how good Bono is. As a fan that always makes me happy.

Totally. Pretty cool that he's put out or been on three songs in quick succession and they're all largely better than most of his solo outings in the past. Always a treat when his projects aren't cringey.

Very good, like that we are getting atleast something over the last few weeks.

Wow. This is a really good song, better than I thought it’d be. Bono sounds great. And, the lyrics and delivery aren’t embarrassing at all.

I didn’t realize a version of Skyscrapers with Swizz Beats came out about a year ago.

Bono sounds great on this. Fair play.

Yeah I learned that this was actually an old song Bono did the hook for Swizz and Kanye in 2012. Makes it less authentic since it’s not something DMX and Bono actually did together but it’s still cool.
I want to say RZA from Wu-Tang said in the late 90s they had a song in the vault somewhere with Bono. I wonder how true that is or if they just hung out. That is a song I’d love to hear!

Still wiping my eyes to see if there is actually an entire thread of youtube responses that don't have any negative comments about Bono...

I noticed that too. Not one bad word about Bono. Highly unusual.
