"Do They Know It's Chrismas?"
Bono hat sich nun endgültig gegen The Darkness Sänger Justin Hawkins im Streit um die die Textzeile "Well, tonight thank God it's them instead of you" der Charity-Single "Do They Know It's Christmas?" ([popup=http://www.u2tour.de/newspics/Allgemeine/Do_They_Know_Its_XMas.jpg&width=800&height=702]Single-Cover|C=Universal Records[/popup]) durchgesetzt. Bono singt die Textzeile, die er vor 20 Jahren auch schon gesungen hat. Einen Artikel gibt es dazu auf Spiegel.de. Dort findet man auch eine Auflistung darüber, wer welche Textzeilen singt. Seit letzter Woche kann man auch die Live Aid DVDs käuflich erwerben, worauf sich die alte Version von "Do The Know It’s Christmas?" befindet, sowie auch eine Live-Version, die am Ende der Live Aid Veranstaltung in UK performed wurde. Daneben sind natürlich auch noch U2s Auftritt von "Sunday Bloody Sunday" und "Bad" enthalten (News).
