ONE love, blood, life
That's one great tune and great singing by Bono.
He should do an album with sailor songs.
And duet with Tom Waits.

Pretty sure Bono can still hit his falsetto like him of old. Just needs to practice it and he'll be singing like Macphisto again. Even I can sing Lemon and I'm in no way a talented singer like Bono.
^^
He can hit high notes with a full open voice pretty good these days, but I doubt he can hit his once so incredible falsetto. The last decade proves the opposite.
With all due respect Moser, but I think it's a very hard song to pull of singing, so I have my doubts. But maybe you can post a youtube video and blow us all away
It's quite obvious that he can't. Just listen to any concert of the past three tours and his attempts of hitting the falsetto in the same vein as he did in the 90s.
but these people who are all "zomg bono'z voice is better than it waz 30 yerz agoes!" are just silly. probably the same people who think he's in excellent shape, takes terrific care of himself, has all his own hair, and is aging like a gem.

Agreed! Except we're talkin bout the most controlled method of singing available to the male voice, falsetto. And Bono's entire vocal palate right now is based on using controlled methods very efficiently.
Now i can agree with you, canuck.
But having said that I'm thoroughly impressed with his upper register "ring" (my layman way of desribing it) on tunes like Bad NYD Pride UV etc last tour. If he can hit that shit like he did, he can nail Lemon with ease. Ask Tony which is harder to sing the "a-hoooooos" of Lemon or the "wide awake" in Bad.
Funny you say that... there's a scene in the Unforgettable Fire documentary where Tony is talking about meeting Bono for the first time. Tony told him he was in a U2 tribute band, and Bono asked him what the hardest song he had to sing was, and T told him it was "Bad.". Bono responded with "that's pretty hard for me too" or something like that.
So point made, sir.
