Is anyone as crazy about this song as I am and two questions. What's it about (did a search on Songfacts.com but it's not there) and who's talking at the end? I'm pretty sure it's Bono, but not sure.

No buddy - it's our very own Adam talking at the end.

Not sure about the origin of the song... I thought I read somewhere that it was actually a poem written by a poet from somewhere in South America.... Brazil, maybe?
![]() As for who's talking at the end, that's Adam. ![]() ![]() |

The part where Adam talks is the reason I first fell in love with this song. I like his drawl, it fits the song very well. A move of sheer genius.

![]() 3 times now I have mistaken a female on this site for being male. I really am sorry - I just come out with something like 'mate' or 'buddy' without even thinking!! ![]() |

That's quite alright. LOL I used to get that a lot with PublicNewSense, a name I've used for years online, but I thought for sure that wouldn't happen with BONO'ppetit.

Fantastic song, just another one of their countless beautiful melodic songs that never get the attention or respect that it deserves.

this may seem REALLY weird, but the first time I heard it I instantly wanted it at my funeral simply because of the falsetto bits! The way they put the reverb on that, you think you've got Macphisto's ghost crying out on the record!
