Great one indeed. The Boy-voice is also very nice. It's kinda childish, but I like that


It is pretty child-like, but it's also really honest and pure, which is why I like it too. He's not trying to sound like something's he's not, like he tried to do during JT.

man it's hard for me to choose . I like the younger raw power and ambition of Boy ,October and ,War . but I also love the finesse and maturity and passion of UF and JT and RAH. In my opinion he's somehow managed to bring it all full circle but hes added refinement to his rep. recently . love him now can't wait for more . Hell I can't wait for his Johnny Cash era ( i only hope it's more Johnny Cash than Pat Boone)

My favorite would have to be ZooTV era. Love the voice and showmanship...outstanding.

As for PopMart era, his voice was not up to par more often than other tours. Does anyone know if there was a medical reason? Did he take any corrective action? It would be interested to know.

yea...he did a surgery between popmart and elevation, and he's taken more care for it...some allergic thing it seems, specially the Las Vegas show, being a deserty place, made it worse...can't remember all the details, but it's there in U2ByU2 if you have it.

All of his voices are my favorite Bono voices. I thank God that his voice has been changing during the years.

Zoo Tv is by far my favorite, but his voice now sounds really good too.
