"It's an extraordinary thing to be in front of 50,000 people and have your mind blown. That's what Zoo TV did to me every night, just completely turned me over. And I couldn't believe we got away with it." - Bono, 1997

Released 25 years ago today: All That You Can't Leave Behind.

"If a record doesn’t give us a reason to leave home, then what’s the point? Touring costs miles, marriages, muscle—so the songs have to pay the fare." - Bono, 2025

"Ask me why I’m a singer and I’ll say I’m filling the hole left when my mother died. As a child it felt like abandonment, and every lyric is me refusing to feel abandoned again." - Bono, 2025

"Jimmy Iovine once told me, ‘I’ve got just enough low self-esteem to get me where I want to go,’ and I pinched the line for ‘The Showman.’ Insecurity, paradoxically, is the best security a performer can have—it keeps the motor running." - Bono, 2025

"Bono's journey really meant something, it carried the emotion of the day to people. So his performer's instinct was right. Again" - Adam on Bono's Live Aid performance

"I hope they’re still there for us. We’ve stretched their elastic limits over the years, and it’s been a long spell away, but I still think we can soundtrack people who want to take on the world." - Bono on fans, May 2025

[U2start.com @U2start]

"Could we turn up somewhere unexpected? Yes. But announcing a big tour, you can’t do more mega…you can’t do a more sci-fi extravaganza than Sphere. So we have to figure out a new way of being on the road and meeting our audience and all of that." - Bono, June 2025

"It was difficult being away so I'm thrilled to be back in a creative environment, even if I'm not 100% there and I've got some bits falling off. It's just the most extraordinary thing. When I was away from the band, I missed it, but I didn't realise how much." - Larry, May 2025
