I know you're afraid of sex, but accusing people of blasphemy is a little extreme don't you think?

If it has no sexual connotations, why does the original mysterious ways video, the live performance through the whole zoo era, & the videoscreens on both the pop & elevation tours feature a bellydancer...
All pretty sexual if you ask me
(bar the dressed up bloke on the pop tour mind you)

1. Song: Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses?
Lyrics in question: " Who is going to taste your saltwater kisses?"
What is a saltwater kiss? My friend explaned to me that a saltwater kiss is a kiss that tastes salty due to a foreign salty substance in ones mouth(ejaculate).
boosterjuice said:Do we need to hear Bono moaning like that?
bono_gal said:Desire is one of the main songs that bono writes about sex in, when he perform live he changes the lin "and the fever when im beside her" to "and the feeling when i'm inside her"
I think that has got 2 b one of the most sexual lines

MOFO "wanna f*** you wanna suck you...rock and roll" and some apparently quite naughty lyrics on Velvet Dress that didn't make it to the album version...can anyone shed a light on this?
EPandAmerica said:When you get older, you have 'thicker skin' as it takes more to make to shock you, it takes more to hurt your feelings, it takes more to move you because you've grown a thick skin and are used to it and you are a hard person because you've already been through a lot of hard things in life, as opposed to someone young who has a 'thin' skin and they would get scared, sad, etc... more easily.
Also I would say that 99% of the time that when Bono sings the word kneel, he is talking about kneeling in prayer.
Yes saltwater kisses could be about a kiss after oral sex, or it could also have a deeper meaning as a kiss from someone that you have loved but you are beginning to see that the love is gone even if the physical relationship is still there, so their kisses would be bitter to you.
U2 songs require a lot of thought.
Thats one of the reasons I this band.
Ofcourse if Bono is singing about God or sex, I always enjoy the moaning, growls and orgasm sounds that come out of his mouth.
Anu said:I only discovered this thread late last night after watching the DVD of U2 hits from the 1990s. To say it lightly, there's some pretty steamy stuff in there, especially Larry and Samantha Morton in Electrical Storm.
The whole question about whether a particular lyric is about sex *or* God misses the point. U2's music is about sex *and* god, god as sex, sex as god, and so on. This is where mysticim parts with religion, and Bono is a mystic like William Blake. Religion is pious, while mysticism is ecstatic. Religion is about laws, while mysticism is about the life-force.
All the kneeling reference are about prayer, and for the sake of our souls, why can't oral sex be a form of prayer? I know our respective spouses and partners and lovers would be pleased if we approached it that way!
