Numb is so hard. I bet even Edge looked at the lyrics when filming the music video and playing it live.

I'm glad to say that I know all of the lyrics to Breathe!  And the rap at the end of Moment of Surrender live. ;D

I was singing The Unforgettable Fire the other day and realized I didn't know what he was saying in some of the lyrics. But I looked them up when I got to work.

Don"t feel bad, Bono doesn't always know the lyrics to songs he's sung 1000 times!

Have you seen the video on youtube of the ultimate trainwreck of Bono forgetting the lyrics to Fast Cars?  Hilarious! But as the caption after the video says, "we mock because we LOVE"  ;)

This is kind of embarrassing given my user name, but I keep forgetting the opening lyrics to "Last Night on Earth."  Not the "She feels the ground is giving way..." part, but the part that Bono speaks over the intro ("When the fuel goes down she stops her car, says it feels like freedom, she's back on the street where the sweet smells are.")

Maybe if I write it 50 times on a blackboard I'll remember from now on.  :)

Do you sing "last night on mars" instead of "last night on earth" in the chorus? :)
