[MP3] Bono - Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds Who would've thought that Bono would cover a Beatles tune? Well, when you think about the people that Bono is trying to emulate, you can't help but see him drawing influence from John Lennon. Perhaps it's their Irish heritages, or Bono is like many others in his adoration of The Beatles. This cover is slated to appear on the soundtrack to the upcoming flick, Across The Universe . Bono's take on the song is [...]

Bono - Hallelujah U2 are one of those bands that have always left me cold. I remember John Peel playing their early singles, but by the time I Will Follow came out, I had already lost interest in them. They were always just a bit too obvious to grab my attention. The only time since then I've ever cared about them was during their record company's altercation with Negativland . To continue Hallelujah Week, I'm including Bono's version from the Tower of Song compilation [...]
Bono seems to have noticed that U2, as a band, are pretty thin fare these days - and, like the CEO of a fading brand, is promising to do something, anything to stop the rot. Actually, strike the "like" from that and replace it with an "as". The next U2 album will sound different, apparently , although he doesn't seem to know how : "We're gonna continue to be a band, but maybe the rock will have to go; maybe the rock has to get a lot harder. But whatever [...]
There can't be many people who still think that Bono is an outsider, speaking truth to power - after all, his little photo-op for Bush during the midterms was a clear indication of what the tax-sheltering, Wall Street property millionaire saw as his duty. But if you still need convincing that Bono is windowdressing for the status quo rather than a challenge to authority, he's happily accpeting an honorary knighthood from Tony Blair : We understand that Bono is 'very flattered' to be honoured, particularly if the honour - like its French counterpart - opens [...]
Apparently, we have something in common with Bono: we both cringe when we hear the name U2 : "I didn't think about it for a long time and, when I did, I realised I didn't like the name." We imagine that while we hear the name as a summation of youthful radicalism turned into self-aggrandising pompery, Bono hears it as a missed opportunity to use the words "Bono and the..." music bono U2
Bono will be delighted that he's had a chance to reclaim his hat, as the courts once again tell Lola Cashman that she must return his hat and some other stuff. Cashman insisted that Bono had given her the hat to keep: During the appeal hearing, she claimed Bono was running around in his underwear backstage at the Sun Devil Stadium in Arizona on the last night of the tour when she asked him for the hat. The court was told he "plonked" it on her head. [...]
We're going to just smile and nod and accept Kylie's explanation for not making good on a promise to join Bono onstage at U2's Sydney gig , returning the "favour" when Bono crashed Kylie's date. Ms Mingoue suggested she was too whacked out from the dates she'd played to show up. And any suggestion she didn't want to be walked on leash by Bono as some sort of trophy is unfair. music bono kylie minogue
Spectacularly missing the point, Bono has defended Madonna's adoption of David : “Madonna should be applauded for helping to take a child out of the worst poverty imaginable and giving him a better chance in life. “Baby David is lucky to have been adopted by someone who can give him a chance of survival in this world and I don’t think it’s fair that people are criticising her.†Aw, poor Madonna being criticised. It's so unfair, isn't it? Of course, Bono has totally missed the main objection [...]
Would you be entitled to your money back if you'd bought a ticket for the Kylie tour, waited patiently and hopefully while she struggled with cancer, and then turned up at the rescheduled date only to find bloody Bono on stage? Bono joined Kylie for the second night in Sydney, doing the male part on Kids. A part originally written for a self-pitying multimillionaire, of course. music bono robbie williams kylie minogue
Interesting to see Bono and the boys launching their postponed Australian tour with a call for Australian Guantanamo detainee David Hicks to be sent home "and to be tried fairly." All good for the image of Bono as the international conscience of rock. Of course, you might wonder, if he's so concerned about the not-actually-legal nature of detention in Guantanamo, he didn't mention it to his mate George Bush when he had one of his periodic meetings with him - you know, the ones where he comes away telling everyone how "passionate and sincere" Bush is?

In one of those battles you only ever usually see if you travel to the Land That Time Forgot, Oasis and U2 are going to be chucking out their albums of old stuff on the same day. Mark Monday, 21st November in your diary as the day creaking old monsters will fight. There's also claims that Chinese Democracy will be released the same day, but... we'll not hold our breath for that. music guns n roses noel gallagher bono oasis axl rose [...]
Because Bono is much too busy building ugly towers and organising his Wall Street finances these days, you wouldn't expect Dutch Band U2 to go out and actually record new material, so when they say "a new U2 album", it's going to be yet another compilation . The closest thing to new material will be the Green Day collaboration (and is it just us, or is there something extra cynical about getting a band to work with you under the guise of charity only to use it to bolster sales of a compilation album?)

In honor of National Talk Like A Pirate Day today, I am going to share my favorite pirate joke. It sounds best spoken, but this will have to do: "A pirate walks into a bar. He's got this giant wooden steering wheel coming right out of the crotch of his pants. Everyone tries to be polite, but finally the barkeep has to ask: "What IS that thing, man?" Pirate looks down and says, "Arrgh. I donno matey, but it's drivin' me nuts ." [...]
Over on NME.com, you can read a delightful report of a happy report of Bono introducing Damien Rice at some sort of fashion launch event for Bono and wife's Edun range of vaguely ethical clothes. It's notable for the complete oversell Bono does on Rice: What you're about to hear and see is like being at a Bob Dylan gig in the early Sixties or a Cat Stevens gig in the early Seventies or James Taylor, or something extraordinary. "Damien Rice is able to still and distil the storms into [...]
It's not often you see Graham Norton getting vexed, but Bono's tax arrangements really do hack him off : "People like Bono really annoy me. He goes to hell and back to avoid paying tax. He has a special accountant. He works out Irish tax loopholes. And then he's asking me to buy a well for an African village. "Tarmac the road outside your house, you tight-wad! Or pay for a school in Ireland. "I've never met Bono and now I probably never will. But if I do meet him I'll [...]
Back a couple of years ago, Green Day seemed about to leave their status as plasticky-faux-punks behind thme and grown into a band who could at least attempt a critique of their nation's politics and policy. Proudly anti-Bush in an environment where anything other than unquestioning support for the Commander in Chief could prove the undoing of an entertainment career, it seemed they'd decided they didn't like the way things were going, and were set about challenging the entrenched powers. A mainstream band at the heart of a new counterculture. Now, though, their sparks have been [...]
Ronnie Wood isn't impressed with Bono or Bob Geldof, snorting that their political activities don't do any good : He reckons their efforts make no difference to the status quo. The 59-year-old also said all he wanted to do was entertain people. He stormed: "I would never go into politics like Bono. Geldof and him can keep trying until the end of the earth but it won't make a difference." This, of course, is based on a mistaken belief that property developer and Wall Street financier Bono [...]
