Today, we're listening to #U2 Wild Irish Rose. What a great track - can't understand why it was never released, other than this TV clip.

One of my favourite Canadian bands, they put out some solid music in the 90’s. I loved that 90’s Canadian Indy sound. #MusicSky

During the creation of U2's All That You Can't Leave Behind, Bono’s laptop—containing lyrics for the album—was stolen from his car. Luckily, it was returned by a buyer who recognized Bono's child’s photo on the screen.
