#U2 #Kite Bono originally wrote the lyrics after a day at the beach with his daughters, Jordan and Eve. He watched a kite crash and his daughters quickly lose interest, preferring to play on their PlayStation.

It’s a song he wrote about his dying father (Brendan) back in 2001 - the kite being a metaphor for his life long relationship he had with his dad.

Band was clicking on all cylinders here. Just a wonderful performance. What a vocal Bono delivers - powerful, emotional, heartfelt, and joyous - all at the same time.
