Bono & Gavin Friday – In the Name of the Father

Under Family Category: Father in Family

Video of from 1994′s “In a Name of a Father” ST Come to me Come distortion next to me Oh do not repudiate me Your adore Make clarity of me Walk by my pathway Don’t censor in a corridor Oh love…step over I’ll follow we down I’ll follow we down In a name of whiskey In a name of strain You didn’t demeanour behind You didn’t go In a name of reason In a name of goal In a name of sacrament In a name of bone-head In a name of leisure You drifted divided To see a object resplendent On someone else’s day In a name of United as well as a BBC In a name of Georgie Best as well as LSD In a name of a father And his mother a suggestion You pronounced we did not They pronounced we did it In a name of probity In a name of fun In a name of a father In a name of a son Call to me No a single is listening I’m watchful to listen to from we adore Stay with me It’s cold in a belligerent But there’s assent in a receptive to advice Of a white as well as a black Spilling over I’ll follow we down I’ll follow we down I’ll follow we down It’s Wiki, though it’s starters: en.wikipedia.org

No, well, my grandparents are from Killkenny but thats not what I was thinking when I posted this. I’m a combat veteran of the Iraq war and am just tired of these hippies to be perfectly honest. Honestly, I feel more of a connection to an Iraqi insurgent than I do these folks who’ve never heard a single bullet whistle but moan about the injustices of humanity and trivialize any armed struggle. Some things need to be fought for…

@duckdown1993 Yes, arrogance is the correct word. You’re from Northern Ireland, I presume, or you have some close connection with NI?

@omvelebit

You’re absolutely right. It’s very easy for these Upper Middle Class Western White folks to champion peace and love when they’ve been handed everything. Most of the world is malnurished but so long as you can still flip a spatula in the US your basic needs will be provided for. I find the Western Middle Class life of apathy, sloth, and docility fundamenally offensive – but telling others how to live, others who live in combat zones – thats just breathtaking arrogance

@duckdown1993 Again, all this is just my point of view, I do not want to offend anyone. Cheers

@duckdown1993 I do. Although I grew up listening U2 back in mid 80ies, last 15 yrs he made himself funny & fell badly in my view just because of his,actually,really naive political-wannabe speeches. Christ,don’t we all know by now who’s turning this world upside down,making chaos & pushing towards WW3??!! I’ve always felt that he’s life was somehow just too easy,if you can see my point,like someone who never had any tragedies in family, yet sings about peace, love.. well fed in his childhood.

Anyone else find Bono’s motives for making this song kind of suspect? He grew up in southern Ireland where the entire population had turned its backs on the Catholics in the North. He didn’t grow up in Belfast and I think he should be more reserved in his public speeches about what went on there. Of course you’d be a hippy Bono – you never have your civil rights yanked from you or had a foreign army occupying your streets.

These hippies really REALLY need to get over themselves.

Ireland belonged to the Celts before it got fragged by Christianity. No religion reserves the right to kill and destroy to convert. Just as no one race has the right to “own” another or enslave a country simply for the sake of owning it. All have done wrong and all will pay for their folly. Freedom is won with free hearts, not the enslaved masses of the world today. This song reminds me that freedom sometimes has to be won. Free your minds and stop letting yourselves be enslaved by hatred

@joolsdallan postBEAR…says it all. Im guessing a follower of a certain football club in Scotland. Anyone has the word “bear” in their name and are anti-Irish, sorta gives it away!
