00:00:15,557 --> 00:00:18,935
[Bono] It is preposterous to think that

4
00:00:18,936 --> 00:00:23,565
others might be as interested
in your own story as you are.

5
00:00:24,233 --> 00:00:29,904
Writing a memoir is a whole other level
of navel-gazing.

6
00:00:29,905 --> 00:00:32,406
[clicks tongue] But here we are.

7
00:00:33,242 --> 00:00:37,245
Tonight, I'd like to try out
some scenes from <i>Surrender</i>,

8
00:00:37,246 --> 00:00:39,872
me book what I wrote meself.

9
00:00:39,873 --> 00:00:46,046
The first one's a dramatic opening.
Could have been a dramatic closing.

10
00:00:47,047 --> 00:00:47,881
See...

11
00:00:49,967 --> 00:00:53,053
I was born with an eccentric heart.

12
00:00:53,929 --> 00:00:55,513
In one of the chambers of my heart,

13
00:00:55,514 --> 00:00:59,768
where most people have three doors,
I have two.

14
00:01:00,644 --> 00:01:07,442
Two swinging doors, which at Christmas
2016 were coming off their hinges.

15
00:01:07,943 --> 00:01:11,697
The aorta is your main artery,
your lifeline.

16
00:01:12,656 --> 00:01:16,618
My aorta, after years of stress,
has developed a blister.

17
00:01:17,369 --> 00:01:19,371
A blister that's about to burst,

18
00:01:20,163 --> 00:01:26,461
which will put me in the next life faster
than I can say goodbye to this one.

19
00:01:27,629 --> 00:01:29,047
So here I am,

20
00:01:30,591 --> 00:01:34,303
Mount Sinai Hospital, New York City.

21
00:01:34,803 --> 00:01:39,849
Looking down on myself
on the stainless steel. [exhales deeply]

22
00:01:39,850 --> 00:01:43,936
Hot blood is swirling, spilling,
and making a mess,

23
00:01:43,937 --> 00:01:47,983
which is what blood does
when it's not keeping you alive.

24
00:01:48,901 --> 00:01:51,987
Blood and air. Blood and guts.

25
00:01:52,613 --> 00:01:55,448
Blood and brains are required right now.

26
00:01:55,449 --> 00:02:02,539
The brains and the hands of the surgeon
who is standing over me.

27
00:02:03,081 --> 00:02:05,374
The man is climbing up to my chest,

28
00:02:05,375 --> 00:02:12,299
wielding his blade with the combined
forces of science and butchery.

[breathing deeply]

34
00:02:40,410 --> 00:02:43,705
[normal voice] Air is stamina.

35
00:02:45,332 --> 00:02:52,088
Air is the confidence
to take on big challenges.

36
00:02:52,089 --> 00:02:56,259
Air is not the will to conquer Everest

37
00:02:56,260 --> 00:03:00,888
but the ability to endure the climb.

38
00:03:00,889 --> 00:03:05,560

Jehovah. Allah. Yeshua.

43
00:03:22,536 --> 00:03:26,123
I'm without air, and I'm terrified.

44
00:03:27,708 --> 00:03:29,418
Because for the first time,

45
00:03:30,502 --> 00:03:34,965
I reach for Yeshua,

46
00:03:36,383 --> 00:03:39,595
and Yeshua is not there.

47
00:03:41,513 --> 00:03:46,685
It's an extraordinary thing
to ask the silence to save you.

48
00:03:48,854 --> 00:03:50,647
To reveal itself to you.

49
00:03:52,441 --> 00:03:55,861

to that silence.

50

He doesn't really notice much else,

173
00:12:09,062 --> 00:12:14,651
least of all me,
age ten, just staring up at him.

174
00:12:15,819 --> 00:12:21,741
Now, if you want your child to grow up
to be a grandstanding stadium singer,

175
00:12:21,742 --> 00:12:23,993
there are a couple of ways to go about it.

176
00:12:23,994 --> 00:12:28,831
You can tell them they're gifted, they--
that the world needs to hear their voice.

177
00:12:28,832 --> 00:12:31,959
This is the Italian, uh, method.

178
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:32,919
[audience cheers, laughs]

179
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,589
Or you can completely ignore them.

180
00:12:36,131 --> 00:12:40,844
This can be the Irish method,
much more effective in my case.

181
00:12:41,512 --> 00:12:45,640
I craved my father's attention.

182
00:12:45,641 --> 00:12:49,478
I wanted him
to think that I had music in me too.

183
00:12:50,312 --> 00:12:52,856
He didn't hear me,

184
00:12:53,565 --> 00:12:57,694
so I sang louder and louder.

185
00:12:58,403 --> 00:13:04,409
In fact, you could say I sang my way
to right in front of you tonight.

186
00:13:06,620 --> 00:13:07,621
Thanks, Da.

187
00:13:09,039 --> 00:13:13,335
My father had some very good reasons
for staying lost in his own world.

188
00:13:14,837 --> 00:13:18,589
I think we're gonna need
some harp music for this next bit.

189
00:13:18,590 --> 00:13:20,175
It's-- It's the tragic part.

190
00:13:26,932 --> 00:13:30,352
My mother, Iris, died when I was 14.

191
00:13:31,645 --> 00:13:36,524
Last time I saw her alive was
at her own father's funeral.

192
00:13:36,525 --> 00:13:39,527
This sounds almost too Irish, I know,

193
00:13:39,528 --> 00:13:43,782
but this is my story. I'm stuck with it.

194
00:13:45,534 --> 00:13:49,788
As my grandfather's casket
was being lowered into the ground,

195
00:13:50,372 --> 00:13:51,747
my mother collapsed.

196
00:13:51,748 --> 00:13:58,547
I stood watching as my father and
my older brother carried her to the car,

197
00:14:00,007 --> 00:14:04,678
drove her to the hospital,
where she died of an aneurysm.

198
00:14:05,262 --> 00:14:06,263
It happens.

199
00:14:06,972 --> 00:14:10,100
I felt useless, so I prayed.

200
00:14:11,226 --> 00:14:17,191
My father's response to this tragedy
was to never speak of her again.

201
00:14:18,567 --> 00:14:23,739
With Iris gone, our home at number 10
is becoming its own opera.

202
00:14:24,948 --> 00:14:26,115
I'm locked in a house

203
00:14:26,116 --> 00:14:31,663
where three men
are living in rage and melancholy.

204
00:14:32,998 --> 00:14:38,253
A house where the name
of our grief is never spoken.

205
00:14:39,546 --> 00:14:40,964
Iris.

206
00:14:41,798 --> 00:14:44,468
My mother's name is Iris.

207
00:14:46,345 --> 00:14:52,350
The house became a river of silence
in which I might have drowned

208
00:14:52,351 --> 00:14:58,481
had my big brother, Norman,
not thrown me a lifeline.

209
00:14:58,482 --> 00:15:01,735
He-- He gave me a guitar, his guitar.

210
00:15:02,528 --> 00:15:06,990
A shield. A weapon. A confidant.

211
00:15:08,325 --> 00:15:11,202
Another voice to pray with. Music.

to the sound of the Ramones'

216
00:15:30,430 --> 00:15:34,517
Songs so simple, and yet
they capture how my life feels to me.

217

We don't do cakes.

Instead, the da wants to talk to me
about getting a job.

222
00:15:55,289 --> 00:15:56,706
A job.

223
00:15:56,707 --> 00:16:00,710
I know
that if I could do something I love,

224
00:16:00,711 --> 00:16:03,671
I would never have to work
a day in my life.

225
00:16:03,672 --> 00:16:06,800
But to do that,
you have to be great at something,

226
00:16:07,759 --> 00:16:11,054
and I'm not great at something.
I'm not great at anything.

227
00:16:12,389 --> 00:16:16,809
I'm smart enough
to know I'm not smart enough.

228
00:16:16,810 --> 00:16:20,647
The Ramones are smart enough to play dumb.

229
00:16:21,398 --> 00:16:24,860
Maybe I need to listen
to even more Ramones.

230
00:16:25,611 --> 00:16:30,782
This is the day I'm gonna write
my very first proper rock-and-roll song.

It will become U2's first single.

[audience cheers]

250
00:17:43,897 --> 00:17:49,861
Now, most people who enter the room
with Larry Mullen find him striking

251
00:17:49,862 --> 00:17:54,991
in the sense that he is a stylish,
good-looking member of the species,

252
00:17:54,992 --> 00:17:59,954
but also in the sense
that he can be strikingly suspicious

253
00:17:59,955 --> 00:18:02,498
of you being in his gaze,

254
00:18:02,499 --> 00:18:05,126
of you being in the room,

255
00:18:05,127 --> 00:18:09,172
and perhaps, on a bad day,
your reason for being anywhere at all.

256
00:18:09,173 --> 00:18:13,509
But when Larry loves people,
he loves them completely,

257
00:18:13,510 --> 00:18:18,182
and I'm grateful to have become
one of the beneficiaries of that love.

00:18:18,849 --> 00:18:21,350
Now, David Evans.

Sometimes the name you're given at birth
just isn't your real name, is it?

260
00:18:27,816 --> 00:18:31,903
David Evans was always the Edge.
Always the Edge.

261
00:18:31,904 --> 00:18:37,241
1976, he was 15, a year younger than me.

262
00:18:37,242 --> 00:18:42,663
He was leaning up against the wall
at Mount Temple Comprehensive,

263
00:18:42,664 --> 00:18:46,084
plucking a complicated guitar line.

264
00:18:46,793 --> 00:18:49,795
He was in class with Alison Stewart,
my future wife,

265
00:18:49,796 --> 00:18:52,340
and it was said that
they were the smartest in their year,

266
00:18:52,341 --> 00:18:57,720
that he had a crush on her,
that they might have gone for walks.

his Gibson Explorer from him

00:24:11,577 --> 00:24:13,745
you're really-- you're really great.

341
00:24:14,371 --> 00:24:15,581
[audience applauding, cheering]

342
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:22,921
But what no one in that rehearsal room,
including me, had thought about

343
00:24:24,047 --> 00:24:26,216
was Iris Hewson resting...

344
00:24:28,552 --> 00:24:30,929
not a hundred yards
from where we were playing.

345
00:24:32,264 --> 00:24:34,932
In all the time we rehearsed
in the Yellow House,

346
00:24:34,933 --> 00:24:37,728
I never thought about her.

347
00:24:38,562 --> 00:24:40,689
Never once visited her grave.

348
00:24:41,857 --> 00:24:45,360
It wasn't like she was dead.

349
00:24:45,861 --> 00:24:47,571
I-It w-- I-It was worse.

350
00:24:48,197 --> 00:24:53,869
We disappeared her,
but Iris would not be denied.

351
00:24:54,786 --> 00:24:57,039
No, not in the music.

352
00:24:59,666 --> 00:25:01,668
["Iris (Hold Me Close)" playing]

353
00:25:02,711 --> 00:25:04,296
[Bono] Iris standing in the hall.

354
00:25:06,089 --> 00:25:08,133
She tells me I can do it all.

355
00:25:11,595 --> 00:25:13,055
Don't fear the world

356
00:25:14,515 --> 00:25:15,516
it isn't there.

357
00:25:16,683 --> 00:25:18,143
Iris playing on the strand.

358
00:25:20,270 --> 00:25:22,231
She-- She buries the boy

359
00:25:22,773 --> 00:25:24,233
beneath the sand.

360
00:25:25,859 --> 00:25:27,569
Iris says that I will be

361
00:25:29,613 --> 00:25:30,822
the death of her.

362
00:25:33,075 --> 00:25:35,494
[whispering] But it wasn't fucking me.

363
00:25:42,167 --> 00:25:47,755
Let me tell you something
about the geometry

364
00:25:47,756 --> 00:25:50,967
and the geography of the Irish mind.

365
00:25:50,968 --> 00:25:55,973
The Irish mind is best understood
as being like an Irish pub.

366
00:25:56,473 --> 00:26:01,227
You go to forget, but in the end,
you're drowning in memories,

367
00:26:01,228 --> 00:26:04,021
and salt-and-vinegar crisps...

368
00:26:04,022 --> 00:26:04,981
[audience laughs]

369
00:26:04,982 --> 00:26:06,315
...a-a-and black stuff.

370
00:26:06,316 --> 00:26:09,819
Um, Finnegan's pub is not just my local,

371
00:26:09,820 --> 00:26:14,073
it is its own country
with its own laws and customs.

372
00:26:14,074 --> 00:26:17,743
It is the domain of Dan Finnegan
and his sons.

373
00:26:17,744 --> 00:26:22,373
It's a constitutional monarchy,
with Dan head of state

374
00:26:22,374 --> 00:26:24,793
and his sons running the government.

375
00:26:25,294 --> 00:26:29,088
There is a code, a strictness,
a reverence for tradition.

376
00:26:29,089 --> 00:26:32,092
Indeed, a respect for opera

377
00:26:32,593 --> 00:26:36,972
and for the kind of man who might know
how to wear tweed,

378
00:26:37,556 --> 00:26:38,974
like my father, Bob.

379
00:26:39,808 --> 00:26:44,771
Now, within the nation of Finnegan's--
Like my father, Bob.

380
00:26:45,689 --> 00:26:52,153
Now, within the nation of Finnegan's
there is a small Italian consulate,

381
00:26:52,154 --> 00:26:53,447
the Sorrento Lounge

382
00:26:54,031 --> 00:26:57,867
which is where, on a Sunday,
I would meet my father for a drink.

383
00:26:57,868 --> 00:26:59,577
I would order a pint.

384
00:26:59,578 --> 00:27:03,539
He, the Catholic, would order Black Bush,
a Protestant whiskey.

385
00:27:03,540 --> 00:27:09,921
Already a subtle signal that
Brendan Robert Hewson was his own man

386
00:27:09,922 --> 00:27:15,260
and one with
a great opening line every single time.

387
00:27:19,223 --> 00:27:23,769
"Anything strange or-- or startling?"

388
00:27:24,353 --> 00:27:26,479
Now, by strange or startling,

389
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:30,150
he was, uh, not interested in the riotous
life of a rock-and-roll singer.

390
00:27:30,734 --> 00:27:34,154
Mostly we, uh-- we sat in silence.

391
00:27:44,164 --> 00:27:45,165
Hmm.

392
00:27:55,968 --> 00:27:57,261
I try to impress him.

393
00:27:58,220 --> 00:28:02,723
Uh, how about Luciano Pavarotti
calling the house?

394
00:28:02,724 --> 00:28:05,936
You consider that strange or--
or startling?

395
00:28:06,770 --> 00:28:10,398
"Startling, uh, that's obvious. [chuckles]

396
00:28:10,399 --> 00:28:16,029
Strange? Yeah. Why would
a great tenor be calling you? No offense."

397
00:28:16,989 --> 00:28:23,328
Uh, none taken. Actually, h-he's--
he's looking for a song.

398
00:28:24,204 --> 00:28:26,789
"Did he dial the wrong number?"

399
00:28:26,790 --> 00:28:30,918
No. He-- He wants me... [stammers]

400
00:28:30,919 --> 00:28:33,880
...with a little help from Edge,
to write him a song. Yeah.

401
00:28:33,881 --> 00:28:37,258
Not Gilbert and Sullivan
or Rodgers and Hammerstein.

402
00:28:37,259 --> 00:28:41,137
Me, B-O-N-O, Paul.

403
00:28:41,138 --> 00:28:43,681
[audience laughs]

404
00:28:43,682 --> 00:28:49,730
"You? [chuckles]
A baritone who thinks he's a tenor?"

405
00:28:51,148 --> 00:28:52,149
Me.

406
00:28:52,649 --> 00:28:58,238
Pavarotti wants me to write him a song.
Now who's the fucking eejit?

407
00:29:01,992 --> 00:29:02,992
"He is."

408
00:29:02,993 --> 00:29:04,244

[Bono] Mount Temple Comprehensive School
was a nondenominational,

414
00:29:30,854 --> 00:29:33,481
coeducational experiment.

415
00:29:33,482 --> 00:29:38,861
In a country that was close
to civil war along sectarian lines,

416
00:29:38,862 --> 00:29:42,991
we had Catholics and Protestants
in the same class.

417
00:29:43,742 --> 00:29:46,702
Uh, you were encouraged to be yourself,

418
00:29:46,703 --> 00:29:51,123
to be creative, to wear your own clothes,

419
00:29:51,124 --> 00:29:55,545
and... [sucks teeth] ...there were girls.

420
00:29:55,546 --> 00:29:58,590
Also, uh, wearing their own clothes.

421
00:29:59,466 --> 00:30:03,594
Ironically,
amid this freedom from religion,

422
00:30:03,595 --> 00:30:05,096
we found ourselves getting religion.

423
00:30:05,097 --> 00:30:09,351
We got close to a group
of Christian radicals called "Shalom."

424
00:30:10,227 --> 00:30:15,565
They figured all the established churches
had not just gotten away from Jesus,

425
00:30:15,566 --> 00:30:19,194
but they had got in the way of Jesus.

426
00:30:20,654 --> 00:30:22,405
As U2 started to get popular,

427
00:30:22,406 --> 00:30:28,077
our first-century Christian brethren began
suggesting that our music was frivolous

428
00:30:28,078 --> 00:30:30,204
and self-flattering.

429
00:30:30,205 --> 00:30:32,708
In other words, fun.

430
00:30:34,501 --> 00:30:39,464
We asked the question, "Can we not
change the world and have fun?"

431
00:30:40,174 --> 00:30:42,259
"Um, no.

432
00:30:42,885 --> 00:30:47,973
You must choose between
this world and the next."

433
00:30:50,350 --> 00:30:56,230
Eventually, it became too much for us,
particularly Edge.

434
00:30:56,231 --> 00:31:00,860
He couldn't live with the tension
between being a disciple of Jesus

435
00:31:00,861 --> 00:31:04,405
and a-- an apostle of Joey Ramone.

436
00:31:04,406 --> 00:31:08,493
He eventually decided to leave the band.

437
00:31:09,786 --> 00:31:11,662
I felt conflicted too.

438
00:31:11,663 --> 00:31:16,209
Um, I had no interest
in carrying on in U2 without Edge.

439
00:31:16,210 --> 00:31:20,088
Larry sympathized with us both.

440
00:31:20,881 --> 00:31:23,841
Adam-- [sucks teeth] Adam did not.

441
00:31:23,842 --> 00:31:30,556
One album and done, like the Sex Pistols.

442
00:31:30,557 --> 00:31:31,599
[sighs]

443
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:34,018
[audience laughs]

444
00:31:34,019 --> 00:31:38,440
Now we just had to tell our manager.

445
00:31:39,358 --> 00:31:41,944
Have I told you about Paul McGuinness?

446
00:31:42,945 --> 00:31:46,572
Paul McGuinness,
the Winston Churchill of Rock.

447
00:31:46,573 --> 00:31:48,574
I mean, he went to war for U2.

448
00:31:48,575 --> 00:31:50,910
He had just taken us
once around the world,

449
00:31:50,911 --> 00:31:54,622
so we really,
really weren't looking forward

450
00:31:54,623 --> 00:32:01,463
to telling him that we were breaking up
his baby band just as they hit puberty.

451
00:32:02,130 --> 00:32:05,384
But he-- he heard us out.

452
00:32:06,051 --> 00:32:07,678
There was a pause,

453
00:32:08,804 --> 00:32:15,352
some, um, fidgeting,
a slap on the face. His.

454
00:32:16,019 --> 00:32:17,395
And then came,

455
00:32:17,396 --> 00:32:23,777
"Am I to gather from this that... [stammers]
...you've been talking to God?

456
00:32:26,029 --> 00:32:31,784
Well... [groans, sighs]
...maybe the next time you ring God,

457
00:32:31,785 --> 00:32:35,705
you might ask him... [chuckles]
or her... [chuckles]

458
00:32:35,706 --> 00:32:40,960
...if it's okay for your representative
on Earth-- i.e., me--

459
00:32:40,961 --> 00:32:43,463
to renege on a legal contract.

460
00:32:45,132 --> 00:32:50,720
Do you think God would have you break
a legal contract, is my question.

461
00:32:50,721 --> 00:32:55,433
A contract that I have signed
on your behalf to go on tour.

462
00:32:55,434 --> 00:32:58,145
What sort of a God is that?"

463
00:33:01,023 --> 00:33:03,859
Hell of a negotiator, Paul McGuinness.

464
00:33:04,776 --> 00:33:07,987
It wouldn't be the first time
we'd put words in God's mouth.

465
00:33:07,988 --> 00:33:10,198
The tour would indeed go ahead.

466
00:33:10,199 --> 00:33:12,868
And I was so heightened,

467
00:33:14,203 --> 00:33:20,917
I convinced
my 21-year-old girlfriend to get married.

468
00:33:20,918 --> 00:33:24,587
Unbelievably, she said yes.

469
00:33:24,588 --> 00:33:29,717
[audience cheering, clamoring]

470
00:33:29,718 --> 00:33:33,012
Now, Edge, he had some fun too,

471
00:33:33,013 --> 00:33:37,266
but Edge was still not sure he wanted

472
00:33:37,267 --> 00:33:40,728
to be in a business of inflamed egos

473
00:33:40,729 --> 00:33:43,440
and pumped-up personalities.

474
00:33:44,399 --> 00:33:47,986
I asked him,
would he make an exception for me?

475
00:33:49,988 --> 00:33:52,448
Arpeggiating his way out of a corner,

476
00:33:52,449 --> 00:33:55,117
Edge began working on
the sketch of a song.

477
00:33:55,118 --> 00:34:00,290
Well, not just a song, a map.
A way forward for U2 in the world.

478
00:34:01,208 --> 00:34:05,545
"Sunday, Bloody Sunday"
was religious art meets The Clash.

479
00:34:05,546 --> 00:34:08,589
[vocalizing]

480
00:34:08,590 --> 00:34:13,262
But its ambition was
to contrast the original Easter Sunday

481
00:34:13,762 --> 00:34:18,515
with the massacre of 14 unarmed protesters
in the city of Derry.

482
00:34:18,516 --> 00:34:20,767
[vocalizing]

483
00:34:20,768 --> 00:34:22,562
While Edge was in his flat in Dublin,

484
00:34:22,563 --> 00:34:26,775
I was with my bride in Jamaica,
writing lyrics for these new songs,

485
00:34:27,734 --> 00:34:31,572
explaining to Ali why our honeymoon album
was gonna be called <i>War</i>.

[audience cheering, applauding]

519

Something to know about performers:

520
00:37:45,182 --> 00:37:50,604
in pursuit of truth, we are capable
of more untruth than most.

521
00:37:51,605 --> 00:37:53,481
[audience member] Cheers.

522
00:37:53,482 --> 00:37:55,776
[audience laughing]

523
00:37:56,443 --> 00:37:57,486
Show business.

524
00:37:59,321 --> 00:38:01,822
Uh, back in the Sorrento Lounge,

525
00:38:01,823 --> 00:38:04,701
the usual opening line from the da.

526
00:38:06,537 --> 00:38:10,582
"Anything strange or startling?"

527
00:38:11,250 --> 00:38:14,752
Everything is strange and startling.

528
00:38:14,753 --> 00:38:19,340
"Oh, you're right there.
I-- I took a taxi out here today.

529
00:38:19,341 --> 00:38:21,926
The-- The driver saw where I was going

530
00:38:21,927 --> 00:38:24,887
and-- and asked if I knew Bono."

531
00:38:24,888 --> 00:38:26,055
[audience laughs]

532
00:38:26,056 --> 00:38:28,433
"I said, 'I do not. Do you?'"

533
00:38:29,017 --> 00:38:33,396
"Sure, we all know Bono out here.
Sure. Isn't he hounded by the Pavarotti?"

534
00:38:33,397 --> 00:38:36,858
"Hounded. Hounded by the Pavarotti.

535
00:38:36,859 --> 00:38:40,529
I never heard that one. Paparazzi, is it?"

536
00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:42,196
[clears throat]

537
00:38:42,197 --> 00:38:45,116
Funny, uh, you should say that.

538
00:38:45,117 --> 00:38:48,786
The great "Paparazzi" himself
has been calling the house again.

539
00:38:48,787 --> 00:38:54,293
This time, he-he wants us to perform with
him in his hometown of Modena

540
00:38:54,793 --> 00:38:59,046
to raise money for refugees
from the war in Bosnia.

541
00:38:59,047 --> 00:39:00,549
I mean, how do you say no to that?

542
00:39:01,133 --> 00:39:04,136
"For once,
would you just do what you're told?"

543
00:39:05,762 --> 00:39:07,221
I want to do what I'm told.

544
00:39:07,222 --> 00:39:12,059
But I'm also being told by the band
to stop getting distracted

545
00:39:12,060 --> 00:39:13,853
so we can finish a U2 album,

546
00:39:13,854 --> 00:39:15,564
rather than ones for Pavarotti.

547
00:39:17,024 --> 00:39:21,986
Let me explain
something about being in this band

548
00:39:21,987 --> 00:39:24,865
that, uh, even my da doesn't understand.

549
00:39:25,657 --> 00:39:31,704
The popular perception
is that I am the leader of U2. I-- I wish.

550
00:39:31,705 --> 00:39:32,997
[audience laughs]

551
00:39:32,998 --> 00:39:36,542
I voted that U2
should be an actual democracy.

552
00:39:36,543 --> 00:39:40,880
So, now I'm in a band
with three other people,

553
00:39:40,881 --> 00:39:43,966
each of whom
thinks he is the leader of U2.

554
00:39:43,967 --> 00:39:45,009
[audience laughs]

555
00:39:45,010 --> 00:39:46,844
So, my wanting to do something

556
00:39:46,845 --> 00:39:50,849
does not necessarily mean
they are wanting to do something.

557
00:39:51,517 --> 00:39:54,311
Anyway, I'm-I'm telling this
to-- to the da.

558
00:39:54,811 --> 00:40:00,024
And, um, Da, the whole band was
in the studio in Hanover Quay

559
00:40:00,025 --> 00:40:02,443
when-- when the--
when the phone rings, you know.

560
00:40:02,444 --> 00:40:03,403
[phone rings]

561
00:40:05,155 --> 00:40:06,155
[groaning]

562
00:40:06,156 --> 00:40:10,993
[Italian accent] "Bono, Bono, Bono.
How are you? [chuckles]

563
00:40:10,994 --> 00:40:13,829
Are you weary from the mountaintop?

564
00:40:13,830 --> 00:40:15,039
[inhales deeply]

565
00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:19,962
Have you come down the mountaintop
with the tablets of rock and roll?"

566
00:40:21,588 --> 00:40:25,007
[normal voice] The new album.
Uh, yeah, we're late as always.

567
00:40:25,008 --> 00:40:26,884
[Italian accent] "You told me this,

568
00:40:26,885 --> 00:40:31,806
and dearest Bono,
that is why I am here to help."

569
00:40:31,807 --> 00:40:35,893
[normal voice] I'm sorry?
Y-You're in Dublin?

570
00:40:35,894 --> 00:40:41,524
[Italian accent] "I am this, uh, very
minute in the Irish customs and exercise.

571
00:40:41,525 --> 00:40:44,151
I have told them I have nothing to declare

572
00:40:44,152 --> 00:40:48,948
but, uh, my love of Bono, Edge,
James and Larry."

573
00:40:48,949 --> 00:40:50,491
[audience laughs]

574
00:40:50,492 --> 00:40:54,328
"It is, uh, my sole purpose in this moment

575
00:40:54,329 --> 00:40:57,623
to-- to be of service to these,
uh, great men."

576
00:40:57,624 --> 00:40:59,001
[sucks teeth]

577
00:40:59,793 --> 00:41:02,336
[normal voice] Oh, maestro,
they are, uh, great men

578
00:41:02,337 --> 00:41:06,299
and-- and this is a great honor,
but it's not a great moment.

579
00:41:06,300 --> 00:41:08,843
[Italian accent] "They don't like me?"

580
00:41:08,844 --> 00:41:12,263
[normal voice] Oh, it's worse.
They don't care.

581
00:41:12,264 --> 00:41:14,140
I mean,
these are the children of punk rock.

582
00:41:14,141 --> 00:41:17,268
They will likely suspect
that you are just here

583
00:41:17,269 --> 00:41:20,230
to twist their arm into going to Modena.

584
00:41:21,106 --> 00:41:22,940
[wails]

585
00:41:22,941 --> 00:41:24,483
[Italian accent] "This pains me.

586
00:41:24,484 --> 00:41:29,030
I came only in genuflection
and cordiality,

587
00:41:29,031 --> 00:41:32,825
and now you question my motivation."

588
00:41:32,826 --> 00:41:35,620
[normal voice] No. No, no, maestro.
It's not like that.

589
00:41:35,621 --> 00:41:38,372
[Italian accent] "<i>Perfetto</i>.
I am on my way."

590
00:41:38,373 --> 00:41:39,415
[exclaims]

591
00:41:39,416 --> 00:41:43,044
[normal voice] Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.

592
00:41:43,045 --> 00:41:46,005
[audience laughs]

593
00:41:46,006 --> 00:41:46,923
[sighs]

594
00:41:46,924 --> 00:41:48,174
[audience cheers]

595
00:41:48,175 --> 00:41:52,553
I-- [sniffs] I go to Edge, Adam and Larry,

596
00:41:52,554 --> 00:41:56,849
I say, "Look, he's the greatest singer
in the history of the world.

597
00:41:56,850 --> 00:42:02,898
It's a huge honor he's coming to see us...
[coughs] ...in the next half an hour."

598
00:42:04,858 --> 00:42:10,446
"The next half an hour? He might be coming
to see you," says Larry.

599
00:42:10,447 --> 00:42:11,865
"He's not coming to see us."

600
00:42:12,449 --> 00:42:15,952
"This is some kind of stunt," says Adam.

601
00:42:15,953 --> 00:42:20,790
"He'd likely show up with a photographer,
you know? We will not be coerced."

602
00:42:20,791 --> 00:42:22,333
What are you going to do? Hide?

603
00:42:22,334 --> 00:42:24,293
"No, we're not gonna hide," says Edge.

604
00:42:24,294 --> 00:42:28,381
"Actually,"
say Adam and Larry in perfect unison,

605
00:42:28,382 --> 00:42:33,219
"that is exactly what we're gonna do.
We are going to hide."

606
00:42:33,220 --> 00:42:34,136
[Bono] Sorry?

607
00:42:34,137 --> 00:42:38,225
And with that, two grown men hide
from Luciano Pavarotti.

608
00:42:38,725 --> 00:42:40,310
- [doorbell buzzing]
- The buzzer rings...

609
00:42:43,355 --> 00:42:46,441
and there he stands. Oh, my God.

610
00:42:47,484 --> 00:42:52,738
The greatest singer in the history
of the w-wor--

611
00:42:52,739 --> 00:42:54,783
Oh, oh, oh.

612
00:42:55,534 --> 00:42:58,035
- With a film crew.
- [audience laughs]

613
00:42:58,036 --> 00:43:02,207
Seven or eight excited Italians.
One of them's crying. [chuckles]

614
00:43:02,791 --> 00:43:07,086
[Italian accent] "Bono, Bono, Bono.
Edge, Edge. Bono, Edge.

615
00:43:07,087 --> 00:43:09,006
Whe-Where are James and Larry?"

616
00:43:10,382 --> 00:43:12,508
"These are my friends from Rai Uno.

617
00:43:12,509 --> 00:43:15,011
They have a satellite dish... [chuckles]

618
00:43:15,012 --> 00:43:18,181
...in case we decide
to announce the show in Modena.

619
00:43:18,182 --> 00:43:19,849
I mean, while we're all together."

620
00:43:19,850 --> 00:43:21,393
[audience laughs]

621
00:43:27,149 --> 00:43:30,943
[normal voice] "In what corner
of the universe

622
00:43:30,944 --> 00:43:33,613
is the great Pavarotti
knocking on your door

623
00:43:33,614 --> 00:43:37,784
and you are not letting him in?
Has the world gone bloody mad?"

624
00:43:38,952 --> 00:43:44,248
Da, in-- in my corner
of the universe, we very much let him in.

625
00:43:44,249 --> 00:43:45,917
In Edge's corner too.

626
00:43:45,918 --> 00:43:50,505
In fact, we're off to be part
of Pavarotti & Friends

627
00:43:50,506 --> 00:43:53,257
to support War Child in Modena.

628
00:43:53,258 --> 00:43:54,509
Yes.

629
00:43:54,510 --> 00:43:56,969
Adam and Larry are missing
in action on this one,

630
00:43:56,970 --> 00:44:01,016
but w-would, uh-- would you like to go?

631
00:44:04,728 --> 00:44:07,813
"Oh, um, really?

632
00:44:07,814 --> 00:44:11,442
Uh, okay, um,

633
00:44:11,443 --> 00:44:15,655
I suppose you better have
at least one real tenor on your side."

634
00:44:15,656 --> 00:44:18,617
[audience laughing, applauds]

635
00:44:22,538 --> 00:44:25,665
And then... And then...

636
00:44:25,666 --> 00:44:27,292
[Pavarotti sings in Italian]

637
00:44:35,634 --> 00:44:39,763
[Bono] The greatest voice
in the history of the world.

638
00:44:48,605 --> 00:44:51,108
But the miracle in Modena

639
00:44:51,900 --> 00:44:55,945
was the transformation
of Brendan Robert Hewson,

640
00:44:55,946 --> 00:44:57,613
my Irish Catholic father,

641
00:44:57,614 --> 00:44:59,699
not by Luciano Pavarotti,

642
00:44:59,700 --> 00:45:05,496
but by the woman on his arm,
Diana, Princess of Wales.

643
00:45:05,497 --> 00:45:11,377
For those of you who don't know,
uh, Edge's family were Welsh,

644
00:45:11,378 --> 00:45:15,298
so they were thrilled
to meet the Princess of Wales.

645
00:45:15,299 --> 00:45:20,929
Edge dared me to--
to ask the da, so I did.

646
00:45:22,347 --> 00:45:27,226
Uh, Da, you fancy meeting, uh, Lady Di?

647
00:45:27,227 --> 00:45:29,395
The Evans are-are wondering.

648
00:45:29,396 --> 00:45:34,817
"What? What? Why would I want to meet
a member of the royal family?

649
00:45:34,818 --> 00:45:39,406
I mean, that's like asking me, do I want
to meet the winner of the lotto?"

650
00:45:42,910 --> 00:45:46,330
Got it. I know. Just-Just-Just asking.

651
00:45:47,706 --> 00:45:51,125
The next bit y-you just couldn't make up.

652
00:45:51,126 --> 00:45:53,878
The da is in our trailer,

653
00:45:53,879 --> 00:45:59,509
not eating from Pavarotti's deli tray
of exotic Italian meats

654
00:45:59,510 --> 00:46:01,720
with names that none of us can pronounce.

655
00:46:03,514 --> 00:46:05,307
And when he turns around...

656
00:46:08,101 --> 00:46:09,728
she's right there.

657
00:46:11,021 --> 00:46:15,650
Approaching 6 feet tall in her heels,

658
00:46:15,651 --> 00:46:18,487
a vision in ivory.

659
00:46:20,030 --> 00:46:25,536
Diana approached the da
as if in slow motion.

660
00:46:26,537 --> 00:46:31,583
"How do you do?"

661
00:46:33,502 --> 00:46:35,503
The da melted.

662
00:46:35,504 --> 00:46:38,673
The shock of a close encounter
with the British royal family

663
00:46:38,674 --> 00:46:41,593
quickly became a teenage crush.

664
00:46:43,178 --> 00:46:48,141
"Um, uh... [stammers] ...very well.
[chuckles] Tha-Thank you for asking.

665
00:46:49,142 --> 00:46:51,102
U-Uh, v-very pleased to meet you."

666
00:46:51,103 --> 00:46:56,232
800 years of oppression,
disappearing in eight seconds.

667
00:46:56,233 --> 00:46:58,818
[audience cheering]

668
00:46:58,819 --> 00:47:03,322
If you've ever wondered about
the usefulness of the royals--

669
00:47:03,323 --> 00:47:06,993
which a lot of Irish people have-- um,

670
00:47:06,994 --> 00:47:09,662
I-I would point to-- to this incident.

671
00:47:09,663 --> 00:47:15,252
Eight centuries of oppression,
one princess and we're even. Yes.

672
00:47:20,132 --> 00:47:22,925
When-- When we get home,

673
00:47:22,926 --> 00:47:27,346
the da is still talking
about Princess Diana,

674
00:47:27,347 --> 00:47:30,142
but he's modulating.

675
00:47:31,310 --> 00:47:35,271
"I must say, uh... [stammers]
...she does great things for charity,

676
00:47:35,272 --> 00:47:40,610
but it's not charity
that you're on about, is it?

677
00:47:40,611 --> 00:47:42,612

your song 'Pride' on the radio,

683
00:48:08,555 --> 00:48:15,436
Well, you know, it was that song
that got us an invitation to Live Aid.

moving through the crowd.

is to be at war with yourself.

869
01:01:15,634 --> 01:01:16,884
[crew member] We got four lenses,

01:01:16,885 --> 01:01:19,011

- [Bono] Okay.

871
01:01:19,012 --> 01:01:22,306
[crew member] Right. The most beautiful.
We would like you to stand there.

872
01:01:22,307 --> 01:01:25,185
- [Bono] Oh, I would love to.
- And we'll-- we'll micro direct you.

01:01:27,062 --> 01:01:28,897
- Focus on the near eye.
- [exhales sharply]

874
01:01:29,857 --> 01:01:32,692
Beautiful. We're never gonna go tighter
than that, are we?

875
01:01:32,693 --> 01:01:33,818
[crew member 2] I don't think so.

876
01:01:33,819 --> 01:01:35,111
[crew member 1] I think that'd be a bit,

877
01:01:35,112 --> 01:01:37,948
difficult to perform... [chuckles]
...with those limitations.

878
01:01:39,324 --> 01:01:40,659
Okay, so turn around, buddy.

879
01:01:43,954 --> 01:01:47,291
Yeah. No, that's pretty good. He sort of
naturally knows what to do, right?

880
01:01:49,084 --> 01:01:50,627
[Bono] It's the third act.

01:01:53,213 --> 01:01:54,715

[sighs]

884
01:01:59,052 --> 01:02:01,679
All this saving the world,

885
01:02:01,680 --> 01:02:06,101
is it really service,
duty, righteous anger,

886
01:02:06,852 --> 01:02:13,817
or is it just a childlike desire
to be at the center of the action?

887
01:02:15,110 --> 01:02:16,570
The center of attention.

888
01:02:19,865 --> 01:02:21,491
Which begs the question,

889
01:02:22,576 --> 01:02:26,038
can you have a child and remain a child?

890
01:02:35,214 --> 01:02:37,216
Time to grow up.

891
01:02:39,218 --> 01:02:40,677
Can't fuck this up.

892
01:02:46,683 --> 01:02:50,395
Desire and virtue, um,

893
01:02:51,396 --> 01:02:52,688
is a whole dance,

894
01:02:52,689 --> 01:02:57,527
and no one does it better than my missus.

895
01:02:57,528 --> 01:02:59,529
"Desire" went to number one in the charts.

896
01:02:59,530 --> 01:03:03,866
I don't know if there's a connection,
but we were so excited,

897
01:03:03,867 --> 01:03:06,911
uh, we had our first baby.

898
01:03:06,912 --> 01:03:10,706
Um... I didn't know how to feel.

899
01:03:10,707 --> 01:03:15,169
I didn't kn-know
if I'd know how to be a father.

900
01:03:15,170 --> 01:03:19,465
Um-- Didn't know if I could be a father

901
01:03:19,466 --> 01:03:24,429
because I didn't think
I had been much of a son.

902
01:03:24,930 --> 01:03:26,014
Um...

903
01:03:28,016 --> 01:03:31,854
I said in the beginning
that Alison Stewart had faith.

904
01:03:32,646 --> 01:03:38,151
I mean, this woman part wrote
the story that you're listening to.

905
01:03:40,445 --> 01:03:42,697
When Ali and I married,

906
01:03:42,698 --> 01:03:46,827
we moved out of our family homes.

907
01:03:47,494 --> 01:03:49,246
That's how young we were.

908
01:03:50,122 --> 01:03:54,334
We moved into an old stone tower
on the Irish coast,

909
01:03:55,252 --> 01:03:56,253
the lighthouse.

910
01:03:58,589 --> 01:04:02,133
Ali will let her soul be searched,

911
01:04:02,134 --> 01:04:06,679
but only if you arrive
at her fort defenseless,

912
01:04:06,680 --> 01:04:09,141
have you half a chance at challenging

913
01:04:09,892 --> 01:04:13,978
her own almost unbroachable defenses,

914
01:04:13,979 --> 01:04:16,148
it's the only way over that drawbridge.

915
01:04:18,317 --> 01:04:20,526
Wasn't two years into our marriage,

916
01:04:20,527 --> 01:04:26,282
and I could see my wife
in prolonged moments

917
01:04:26,283 --> 01:04:31,580
returning to the vast silence
that she holds inside herself.

918
01:04:33,207 --> 01:04:38,044
She was suggesting that
even when I was home, I wasn't home.

919
01:04:38,045 --> 01:04:42,883
Our weekly walks along the promenade
tinged with melancholy,

920
01:04:44,009 --> 01:04:48,680
as the waves try to make up their mind
whether they're leaving or staying.

921
01:04:49,264 --> 01:04:50,431
Leaving or staying.

I called my book <i>Surrender</i>

970

because I knew this is a word
I needed to understand better,

971
01:07:09,446 --> 01:07:11,072
that it was the antidote

972
01:07:11,073 --> 01:07:14,618
to w-whatever condition
I was suffering from.

973
01:07:16,203 --> 01:07:18,872
And it didn't come natural to me.

974
01:07:33,971 --> 01:07:37,807
One Sunday in 1999,

975
01:07:37,808 --> 01:07:41,435
I'm back in the Sorrento Lounge
with the da,

976
01:07:41,436 --> 01:07:45,357
and for the first time ever, um,

977
01:07:45,858 --> 01:07:50,820
decide I'll ambush him
with his own question.

01:07:50,821 --> 01:07:52,072

01:08:12,301 --> 01:08:13,718

984
01:08:23,604 --> 01:08:24,813
Hmm. [sighs]

985
01:08:26,773 --> 01:08:31,152
Huge boulders fall on your head,

986
01:08:31,153 --> 01:08:34,487
just like that,
from some imaginary mountain.

987
01:08:34,488 --> 01:08:39,786
I-- I thought I was getting to know him,
um, that there'd be more time.

988
01:08:41,913 --> 01:08:43,624
How Bob Hewson of you.

989
01:08:44,207 --> 01:08:46,209
Just when I thought I was
finally getting to know you,

990
01:08:46,210 --> 01:08:50,923
that you might give up some answers,
you give me the slip.

993
01:08:59,473 --> 01:09:04,143
I see my father in a hospital bed.

994
01:09:04,144 --> 01:09:07,397
This time it's him
who's running out of air.

995
01:09:07,898 --> 01:09:13,278
And I see myself lying next to him

996
01:09:13,904 --> 01:09:15,988
on a mattress on the floor.

997
01:09:16,490 --> 01:09:18,033
He's breathing,

998
01:09:19,660 --> 01:09:21,912
but his breathing's getting shallower,

999
01:09:23,037 --> 01:09:24,580
like the grave in his chest.

1000
01:09:24,581 --> 01:09:26,542
He shouts my name,

1001
01:09:27,042 --> 01:09:30,920
uh, confusing me with-- with my brother...

1002
01:09:30,921 --> 01:09:32,338
[stammers] ...and the other way around.

1003
01:09:32,339 --> 01:09:35,174

1004
01:09:35,175 --> 01:09:39,263
I jump up, call the nurse.

01:09:40,639 --> 01:09:41,974
"Are you okay, Bob?"

1006
01:09:42,850 --> 01:09:44,058
she whispers in his ear.

1007
01:09:44,059 --> 01:09:48,271
His tenor has now become short,
tinny breaths.

1008
01:09:48,272 --> 01:09:53,527
An S after every exhalation.
"Yes. [stammers] Yes. Get me out of here.

1016
01:10:18,510 --> 01:10:24,474

1018
01:10:31,190 --> 01:10:34,735

01:10:35,944 --> 01:10:38,155

that he'd lost his faith.

1054

that I should never lose mine.
