And what we loved about it was that it was not obvious from the name what this band would sound like or be about.

Bono has spoken of his dislike of U2‘s name, most of their songs and his own singing voice.During an appearance on the Awards Chatter podcast (via The Times), the frontman explained that he turns off the radio when the group’s tracks are played because he can’t listen to his vocals.He also claimed that he had only learnt how to sing “recently”.Bono – real name Paul Hewson – went on to admit that he’s “still” doesn’t like U2’s band name. “I really don’t.
