Most cliche Bono line? The ones that make you groan...

[topplehatU2]

Taken from the latest single:

"Soul in a strip tease
Hate brought to its knees "

What we have here kids is a "soul" and "knees."

 

[tuwie]

^ hahah yep, a double whammy

 

[Axver]

There's worse than that WITS lyric:

"We're one but we're not the same/We get to carry each other [...] one love, one blood, one life/You got to do what you should/One life, with each other, sisters, brothers"

"'Cause you're stuck in a moment and you can't get out of it"

"It's a beautiful day, don't let it get away"

"And I know it aches, how your heart, it breaks, and you can only take so much, walk on, walk on"

Does it get any more cliche?

 

[xaviMF22]

Turn this song into a prayer.....

 

[J_NP]

Curious that I kinda find cool

Soul in a strip tease

Turn this song into a prayer.....

Where's this ?

 

[xaviMF22]

Where's this ?

eh... I just realized we are talking about actual songs

my mistake

 

[toscano]

"The edge is on fire"

 

[Axver]

How can we forget the Vertigo Tour's Where The Streets Have No Name / Wow (snippet x3)?

 

[pattip2000]

"And I know it aches, how your heart, it breaks, and you can only take so much, walk on, walk on"

take that back.

 

[Axver]

take that back.

Oh, don't get me wrong, I like Walk On and it has a fair bit of sentimental value to me, but you have to admit some of its lyrics are pretty cliche.

 

[Earnie Shavers]

"And I know it aches, how your heart, it breaks, and you can only take so much, walk on, walk on"

They sound like lyrics from a written-by-committee boy band ballad. I like the song, but agree, many of the lyrics are cringeworthy.

 

[silvrlvr]

Everybody knows how much I hate this one but one more time,

"Love left a window in the skies
and to love I rhapsodize."

 

[JCOSTER]

"The edge is on fire"

ditto!

 

[Swan269]

bono: we will have an album this year.

 

[redhotswami]

anything supporting capitalism. i can't remember specific quotes right now and i refuse to look for them because they make me cry.

i guess it isn't cliche but it makes me groan...and cry.

Has u2 ever written anything in favor ?

Bono has SAID things in favor. Please don't make me look!

Does it get any more cliche?

Despite what you may think, I think "We're one but we're not the same, we get to carry eachother" is a really original line.

 

[thelaj]

"hello hello"
He said that an awful lot

 

[JulioArca]

Not from any lyrics but I really can't stand all that 'Larry still is 14' stuff... Funny at first, but just daft 300 gigs later..

 

[An Cat Gav]

One of the only times I was truly embarrassed to be a U2 fan was because of the Milan DVD. When Bono is talking to the crowd, saying"sexy bone-o" and "its ok to be uncool", all that crap. That was horrible, the whole speech makes me shudder with shame, especially when he was making them swing side to sde. eeuurrgghh

 

[Zoobaby14]

i hate when Bono makes a speech and says

I'm Bono, Im a rockstar....uh: everyone knows how he is

And then it about comming from Ireland

I love Bono dearly but im sure everyone know that already

 

[mart]

I hate 'the Edge is and advance carbon life form' or something like that .... he says that ALL THE TIME - DOH!

 

[An Cat Gav]

or "We call Edge's mum 'Mrs The Edge"

 

[mart]

i think he should assemble a 'bono marketing team' they should come up with cool things for him to say. like "rock 'n' roll doggie!!!"

"Rock n roll doggie" that was so cool, those were the days!

 

[Axver]

or "We call Edge's mum 'Mrs The Edge"

That one's creepy.

 

[U2girl]

Not a line necessary but all the hype about the band and their releases, and not necessarily just by Bono.
