U2 ::: The Hewson Phone is Busy

Remember Elliott's reaction when he saw E.T.'s heart glowing? "Aah!!!! He's alive!!!"

Was gonna wait till tonight to find out what they performed at the AI finals. Then this bit of information gets in my face: David Cook sang "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For". What?!

Grabe. Strike 3! Hello (my favorite Lionel song), Billie Jean (by MJ, no explanation necessary), and now this. I mean that's only my favorite U2 song--ever! All right, that's it. I've been playing it cool with this guy but he keeps getting to me. I officially love David Cook na nga rin. Tsk!

Only to be with you...only to be with you!

If I die tonight after seeing that part of the show, I bequeath all my belongings to charity. Seriously, I just know I'm going have some kind of "experience" when I stand in front of the TV for this performance. OA ba? Wala eh. There are no words to describe this situation except to say it's U2 and the heathen.

I have climbed highest mountains
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you
I have run
I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing fingertips
It burned like a fire
This burning desire

I have spoke with the tongues of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night
I was cold as a stone

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I believe in the Kingdom Come
When all the colors will bleed into one
Bleed into one
Well, yes I'm still running

You broke the bonds
And you loosened the chains
Carried the cross
Of all my shame
all my shame
You know I believe it

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

You won't believe my goosebumps when I was watching the clip online. I'm glad he used the gospel angle of the song, too, which probably means he sat down to watch the concert videos.

No question on who's got the influential U2 vote now. We can really swing this.

Um...riiight. =D
