HelloAngel
ONE love, blood, life
With a new U2 CD here comes another year of Bono
By Randall Smith | Orlando CityBeat Writer
I like when a U2 album gets released. It heralds the coming of the Bono experience. The hoopla all but puts the world on notice that He will be coming to your walk of life to hold you accountable for your deeds since the last time He was around. You cannot mistake this event as a mere band's musical CD release.
Just in case you are uninformed on this issue, Bono produces results on a global scale that world leaders have been incapable of without him.
Since Bono was on the stage with David Trimble and John Hume, the pair who shared the Nobel Peace Prize in '98, there has been lasting peace in Northern Ireland. It is a shame that the Middle East doesn't follow Bono's lead in the successful way to build a lasting peace in terror torn nations.
It was Bono's marching world leaders around by the scruff of the neck to successfully drop the debt owed by many poor nations that was the reality of spending political capital. The British dropped debt owed to 20 poor nations. The US Treasure Secretary was dragged through Africa and he eventually had half a billion dollars of African national debt owed to the US canceled. The entire G7 nations are still in the debt- cancellation ring getting beat up by Bono's DATA organization, which is an acronym for debt, AIDS, trade in Africa.
Wait until He attacks the latest world nuke crisis. Oh and he will, the latest CDs title is a classic foreshadowing hint to the world leaders of what Bono has in his sights this time around. Let me be the first to state this in the press, we will see Bono in North Korea and Iran in his fighting Irish stance against the nukes.
The world of style has taken notice of Bono as well. The sunglass industry loves every new pair of fly-eye or orange that the paparazzi snap him in. The apple folks are iPod mad about U2, which makes a good match, as there is no cooler tech gizmo or rock star then the iPod or the Bono.
There will also be new U2 songs, videos, live gigs and concerts too. The rest of the band may actually get a picture and a word in now and then… possibly.
