"We could be a (weird) happy family..."
Thursday, May 21, 2009
Ever since I posted about my secret, one-sided love affair with Bono, I have been listening to him non-stop. I watched all of the video's that youtube had to offer. Clearly, I need to get a life. But, I just can't seem to help myself.
Must. Watch. More. Bono.
Really, I just want to watch more U2. I love them all. If it weren't for the huge ICK factor, I would marry them all. We could be a happy little U2 family. All 5 of us... Bono, The Edge, Larry , Adam and me. One big happy, whacked out family.
When I ran across these two videos, I fell even more in love with this band. I've been a crazy, whack-a-doo fan since I first heard them-- in the early 80's. I remember watching Sunday Bloody Sunday on MTV. When I wasn't supposed to watch MTV. I was supposed to be in bed. But, I would sneak out and watch the British videos that came on late at night. I was in love then... and the sickness has just gotten worse over these last 20 some odd years.
I have watched these two videos over and over. They really are awesome if you watch them back to back. Thing 3 and I have sat here for 30 minutes or more... watching them and giggling like little school girls.
I have decided that if that girl in the first video were me-- Good-freaking-grief!-- I would pee my pants! Then, after the concert was over I would need to immediately get hit by a bus.
Why?
Because then I would die having lived out my life long dream of being snugged by Bono... Kissed by Bono... and Slow dancing with Bono.
Sweet Mother of Martha!
