Bono realized that the fact he was able to make a comeback with the great ATYCLB after the embarrassment that was Pop let him realize how creative he was despite having a God-shaped hole caused by POP.
Of course, POP can no longer be erased from the memory of man so Bono is forever burdened with that God-shaped hole. He takes pride that he is still successful despite his POP-created God-shaped hole. He is proud that through the storm, U2 have reached the shore with ATYCLB.
All of this led Bono to realize he was creative.

He must've had the "God shaped hole" BEFORE Pop, for the line to be in a song on the record.

I was serious; it's Pascal -- I just read this on U2Log.Com, where they are discussing the same video clip.

Blaise Pascal, a famous French mathematician and philosopher, put it like this: "There is a God-shaped vacuum in the heart of every man which cannot be filled by any created thing, but only by God the Creator, made known through Jesus Christ." If we try to stuff anything but God into that God-shaped hole in our lives, we'll end up dissatisfied, restless, discontent.
