Look at the lyrics in the book — it says UNOS, dos, tres, catorce. I heard that unos is Latin for "about," and the two stands for the second book of the Bible, Exodus, then you have 3:14. So it's about Exodus 3:14. This talks about God saying he's the great I AM. If you look at the deluxe edition, in the book, you'll find that Bono wrote part of the verse out on the page with lyrics to "All Because of You." In that song, Bono changes it up a bit and says "All because of You, I am."
I'm not saying this is right, but it makes you think, huh?

Well, yeah, I was being serious. Uno, Dos, Tres Catorce DOES mean One, two, three fourteen. I don't have the book to look it up in to see what bono actually meant when he wrote it. I thought it was "uno" and not "unos". I don't have the HTAAB cd, I got it from iTunes for my ipod so I couldn't look up the lyrics in it. The site that I went on to find the lyrics said it was "uno" and not "unos".
Thanks for clearing this up coemgen, that sounds right.

actually, that couldnt be correct. Spanish is my first language, and UNOS does not mean about. de, sobre, usually would be about. unos translates: uno- one
s- plural
so that would mean unos means ones
sorry to burst everyone's bubble, it would be cool though if it was about that passage in the Bible

Maybe this is some sort of unexplained miracle from god to Bono.

Wow, I''m surprised no one else has brought this up during the last three months.
I know it's kind of a tangent, but what does everyone else think of POP? I've been waiting for that topic to come up for a while, also.

I think that those of us who are here all the time have just beat this subject to death. No harm, no foul. The question has been asked, again, so we just need to answer it and move on.
the gun is loaded... i'm now slowly lifting it into my mouth...
the whole thing about how lillywhite produced the first three albums and now the 14th... even though original soundtracks wasn't even a u2 album so that list actually has only 13 u2 albums... is about as logical as my assertion that 1, 2, 3, 14 are actually Bono's favorite lotto numbers.

I believe the lotto numbers make sense and is a valid theory...

since this topic has arisen AGAIN, i will state my theory.
Unos- derived from greek unoscis (meaning The One Great Being)
Dos - Derived form Greek dosopolis (meaning city in the sky)
Tres - treswa (french for meeting)
catorce - spanish for fourteen
Therefore, Bono's dad, who died on the fourteenth, is meeting God in heaven. Very simple.

This might be easily solved if the search function was enabled for non-premium members.
Providing, of course, that everyone used it.
