Is There a U2 Curse?
Alan M was pondering U2 history when he realized that something was a little wrong.
U2 uses Roy Lichtenstein art in PopMart = He dies soon after
William Burroughs appears in the “Last Night On Earth” video = He dies soon after.
Allen Ginsburg recites “Miami” for the Year in Pop TV special = He dies soon after.
U2 does song for Mandela movie = He dies soon after.
Add David Wojnarowicz to this list (inspiration of the song “One” who later died,) and the Roy Orbison collaboration (Bono and the Edge wrote “She’s a Mystery to Me”–and then he died).
Joey Ramone listened to “In a Little While” as he took his last breaths in a hospital bed. And let’s just throw in the Sinatra duet with Bono for good measure.
I’m not sayin’, but I’m just sayin’, you know? Anyone want to build in the theory?
"I've finally done it. I've finally worked with U2. I can die happy now"?
"New York" from "All that You Can't leave behind" released in October 2000. September 11, 2001 not too long after "Religious nuts, poliitcal fanatics in the stew happily not like me and you"!!!!!
The Joshua Tree album cover: dead. The One Tree Hill tree: dead. Coincidence..??
Bono wrote this with Joe Strummer, who unexpectedly died shortly after as well. geez.
Dutch article about u2 asking dutch painter Herman Brood to paint them an album cover. He died 2 days after.

I'd comment on this but I don't want to risk any further association with U2 after reading this…
Let’s hope they write a song about Taylor Hawkins, Sharon Osbourne, Iggy Pop & Nick Mason soon lol
you remember Turn Off The Dark???
