| 3 | * [[GratuitousSpanish SOME SPANISH LESSON]] [[{{Oireland}} WITH AN IRISH ACCENT!!!]] |
| 4 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHorYqIVr9o Top 10 things U2 has learned over the years.]] |
| 5 | ** Particularly |
| 6 | --> [[DeadpanSnarker Larry]]: Sometimes when we shout, "Are you ready to rock?" I don't ''care'' if you're ready to rock. |
| 7 | * May I remind you that the Dalton Brothers play ''both'' kinds of music -- [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oj0IT77Asbs country AND western!]] |
| 8 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfjOmR_75uw Godfather.]] More OohMeAccentsSlipping than the Dalton Brothers! Babyface Mullen! The violin! |
| 9 | * Bono's count-off at the beginning of "Vertigo": "1... 2... 3... 14!" Made even funnier on live video when he preceded the bad Spanish by telling the audience he was going to "teach [them] some Gaelic." |
| 10 | ** Listen closer. That first word is ''uno'''s'''''. Spanish for "some". |
| 11 | *** Another way to hear it: "11[[note]]"onze," French[[/note]], 2, 3[[note]]both in Spanish[[/note]], 14[[note]]back to French[[/note]]!" |
| 12 | * Quite a few of [=MacPhisto=]'s Zoo TV phone calls, especially in the Dublin gig, where he actually phoned home to find the four years old Jordan Hewson answering. |
| 13 | --> [[CutenessOverload Daddy, if that's you, we're not coming home until you take your horns off! Bye-byyye!]] |
| 14 | * [[http://youtu.be/qq20IWbZP-Y A Day in the Life of The Edge]]. A documentary on [[SpoilerTitle a day in the life of The Edge]] shot by Bono, which starts with Bono breaking into Edge's hotel room and finding out [[JustForFun/OneOfUs the Edge falls asleep to the Sci-Fi channel]]. |
| 15 | * Their appearance during ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'' episode "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS9E22TrashOfTheTitans Trash of the Titans]]": |
| 16 | -->'''Bono:''' Hold on, people. He's talking about waste management, that affects the whole damn planet! |
| 17 | -->'''The Edge:''' Aw, here we go... (''to Larry'') What do you say we slip out to Moe's for a pint? |
| 18 | -->'''Adam:''' Can I come? |
| 19 | -->(''{{beat}}'') |
| 20 | -->'''The Edge:''' No. |
| 21 | -->'''Adam:''' Wankers... |
| 22 | * A couple of times during the [=PopMart=] tour, the band got stuck inside the lemon, [[Film/ThisIsSpinalTap Spinal Tap]]-style. |
| 23 | ** It's become slightly memetic how much The Edge in particular fears becoming Spinal Tap. "I saw that film and didn't laugh so much as I wept." |
