All because of you and Yahweh are about God, Vertigo is about Jesus, Original of the Species is about religious zealots, love and peace or else is about the mid east crisis, one step closer is about bono's father losing faith before his death, city of blinding lights is about big cities & 9/11, sometimes you can't make it on your own is about bono's father
all of these songs have heavy religious themes, so its not suprising kneel is used a couple of times in this album, its not like we haven't heard that word before (mysterious ways comes to mind right away with any mention of the word kneel)
Diemen said:Haha...this is great.
I have climbed the highest mountain
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you
Desert sky
Dream beneath a desert sky
Oh, oh on borderland we run
And still we run, we run and don't look back
I'll be there, I'll be there
Tonight, tonight
I'll be there tonight, I believe
I'll be there so high
I'll be there tonight, tonight.
Don't believe what you hear
don't believe what you see
You say you want diamonds on a ring of gold
You say you want your story to remain untold.
To let it go
And so to fade away
To let it go
And so fade away
Like a desert needs rain
Like a town needs a name
etc.

Jick, you've proven nothing
You've proven nothing
Nothing is all you've proven

What's a religious zealot?
starsgoblue said:I've heard Bono say it was originally for Edge's children....and then at a performance he said something along the lines that it was for anyone who ever looked at everyone else and wondered they weren't measuring up because of their own self-imposed doubts on themselves and whatnot. So, it's like being unsure of oneself and their place in the grand scheme of things.
Now, I see Crumbs def. having a little dig at zealots.

jick said:"I’ll give you everything you WANT
Except the thing that you WANT"
I guess that part is the most disturbing line in the album because it is Bono not making any sense. It is also repetetive a show Bono didn't even bother looking at a theasaurus.
Also my references to loopiness were geared more towards the last words, or the rhyming words for that matter. Not the first words or the use of the same words and phrases (kinda like in Hawkmoon). Bono seems to have lost his rhyming touch.
But I have to give it to Bono for Miracle Drug "I wanna hear you when you CALL, do you feel anything at ALL?" Everyone other singer in the face of this planet has used the tried and tested rhyme of "call and fall" - at least Bono avoided that pitfall and used "call and all" - although Bono used "call-fall" in Slide Away.
Cheers,
J

As far as the most overused rhyme, it would have to be some form of I'm down on my knees, begging you please.
