He's clearly not even *trying to sing it like Bono. He's singing it as John Legend, not a U2 cover band.

.... The Bono vocal is the whole song

Interesting. I always thought the drums and the guitar were the clinchers for me...
last unicorn said:Just listened to it, amazing version. It's totally different from the original, but that's what makes it great. John Legend doesn't try to sound or play like U2, he makes his own version out of it. I like it.

And as for the vocal, Bono can't even sing it like Bono anymore, those days are sadly gone. Legend can at least hit the notes in the chorus, I miss that.

Check out any Vertigo tour preformance of it especily the 5th leg Bono never sung it better. And not to get down on Legend (I do like how he made it his own) but clearly hiting those notes in 50% of full voice is a lot easier then Bono belting the crap out with 150% of his voice which he did on the Vertigo tour and now I love pride live wich I never thought would happen.
