I will not insult the reader who takes any time to read my prose to present the rock band U2 given the fact that for the better and for worse, the four musicians who are held up Poster for a good twenty years. It is also not surprising that this training is charismatic as successful as it is known, since many think it was from the outset many cards to play to know the global triumph perhaps undeserved: an asset composition and performing some service lyrical and catchy songs almost all constructed as real hymns to the attention of an audience looking for the transcendent (but not very demanding in terms of innovative musical concepts). Having loved despite all this training I took his debut, however my distance gradually guilty noting their desire to know a mainstream audience and status of musicians and megalomaniac millionaire (with the concessions that go with it, alas), little attitude agreement with the idea that I was doing ethics rock, I remember my favorite band is Joy Division (without a doubt the greatest modern rock band, honest and innovative).

The side preaching of growing Catholic Bono was also not for me please. Still I kept an eye (and ear) toward the Irish quartet, sensing that I might do one day still vibrate with the turning of an album, or even a only single. What finally arrived at the dawn of the 21st century with Beautiful day, this simple song and magical, unstoppable and irresistible, the kind that give you goosebumps and chills in hollow back, defending your body.
Beautiful day obviously takes all his strength when played live, and what is more beautiful than discover at the huge Live 8 July 2 2005 conducted simultaneously in London, Tokyo, Berlin, Rome, Paris, Johannesburg, Moscow and Washington DC (for the record, this concert humanitarian collective is the successor to Live Aid created by Bob Geldof July 13, 1985 in London and Philadelphia and broadcast live on the airwaves around the world). During this memorable performance, the band and the crowd that day and found themselves united as transported by the humanity of this unifying song of hope. Four minutes and forty seconds enthralling were happily immortalized on DVD and can therefore be ironed at will, finding that, definitely, some dazzling choruses and verses can sometimes change the world (aside from the debt of 18 poorest countries was finally obtained after this musical event initiated by Bono, even if such activism run by mega-stars here and there was criticism, particularly by associations , Third World activists and humanitarian).
