πΌ13 March 1960. Happy Birthday π₯³πΎ to one of those men "behind the scenes"... as often happens to bassists and drummers in a rock band π³
Mr. Adam Charles Clayton born in Oxfordshire, England (yes π€) forever bass player for U2.
At some point he got more popular than his bandmates #Bono and #TheEdge, for his relationship with πModel Naomi Campbell in the early 90s ππ» One of the most envied guys in the world at the timeπ I chose one of the songs where Clayton's work is more evident... and of course one of their best!!!

πΌ27 March 1987. U2 play a rooftop concert in downtown Los Angeles, taking the idea from what The #Beatles did in their famous rooftop concert in London some decades before. π€πΈ
They were intended to film their video for "Where The Streets Have No Name", one of my absolute favorite songs from my absolute favorite #U2 album, The Joshua Tree.
How the story went on... it's here in the official video π they somehow made history with that too! π

What makes this world great (and unique) is that every single person sees reality in a unique way... his own!
Off Topic, sorry π
My highest respect (only) to the #U2 of the 1980s π€

Bono says he gets 'embarrassed' listening to old U2 songs - 'most make me cringe'
Bono said he was most proud of their song Vertigo, but added: "Most of the other ones make me cringe a little bit."
ππΌ 30 January 1972. Exactly 50 years ago it was a Sunday like today... in Northern Ireland it was a Bloody Sunday, when British Army shoot on unarmed civilians following a massive civil rights protest march.
This massacre inspired so many artists who wrote, painted, sang about that day.
As concerns music the most famous and iconic song is of course Sunday Bloody Sunday by U2 (1983), few know that the first musician to write about it was John Lennon in 1972, the same song title "Sunday Bloody Sunday", and the first band was Black Sabbath, "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath", 1973 (both album title and titletrack lyrics inspired by bassist Geezer Butler of Irish origin).
In the Chat Roomπ the 3 songs and a short explanation on that day.
