Jamaican grandma here feeling very proud and nostalgic to hear Bono singing Bob Marley! Thanks for the little bit of history. Two of my favorite guys!! Really love it!!
💕💗💞
Bono doesn't look well.
Bono and Bob Marley are my favorite singers also!
Had to go listen to Bob Marley right away, like a craving was triggered.
@@louannwaters6691 Don’t even think about disrespecting Bob Marley with that
The Questionert is my favorite segment and this is the best one ever.
His autograph question was superb.
My favorite one too. Bono is such a romantic, positive and great story teller.
No,how about do u play the organ in the bathroom!?😂
“Do you play the organ” LOL! Stephen is witty and merciless.
He plays the mouth organ.
I love him so much. Got teary-eyed when he mentioned his mom ironing. That’s one of my favorite ordinary moments from childhood as well. Something so soothing about it.
Especially when you consider that his mother died when he was a teenager.
@@ellendunn559 yes of course that makes it all the sweeter.
His mother ironing! Oh my goodness I love this man❤️❤️
This reponse added tears to my eyes. It reminded me of my mom.
@@javiercalderon9527…same. Except it was my grandma for me😇
That INSTANTLY brought me to tears. That smell, the feeling of the end of the day. Mom was done while ironing shirts, like a victory lap.
@@tobinhays652 it reminds me soooo much of my grandma (my girl, I always called her) I can close my eyes and smell the starch and the Final Touch fabric softener ❤️❤️ Matter of fact, I think I’m gonna look to see if I can still get that somewhere. I use the starch but I have to find the rest
The spotted paparazzi was genius haha
Lol 😆 🤣 😂
@@RTCrmCreative With You Bro/Sis. ... The SPOTTED Paparazzi -!! 🤣 Haha Haha Haha! [Paparazzi? Eat yer Heart Out Lady Gaga-!]
That was hilarious and so true 😮
Yes synthetic mint .. that irons true like fresh laundry
My mother ironing ... What a perfect answer. A true Irish poet.
I didn't want to be anywhere but watching this Colbert Questionert with Bono. This was ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!!! Bono is wonderful! When Stephen got to the Autograph question, I was FLOORED.
Bono's heart opened up and it was nothing but fantastic after!!! I was in tears. This was beautiful!
Thank you for sharing it on UA-cam!
When I heard him say his mother ironing I almost cried. He was only 14 when she died so that’s a powerful memory to still have. Love Bono
Interviewed Bono many times.. different spots in the world...always thoughtful, always with a glint of mischief in his eyes and, I love this, always curious. He, The Edge and I had what was supposed to be a 30-min on cam chat, turn into shutting off the cameras, ordering tea and diving into a wide-ranging, long conversation -- filled with laughter and stories and interesting questions. It was an experience I'll never forget.
Yeah and if you had an interview with him now he'd run away.
#BonoIsFake
Maybe I'm overegging d pudding here, but I find some of his responses to be breathtaking.
Simply beautiful... LEGEND. I LOVE YOU BONOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Nope-no overegging here. You’re right. This is a man who is true to himself, and is both bold and brilliant enough to be able to articulate it.
I love him soooooo much also!
Oh ,gosh ,let us fawn over the globalist ,the Bill Gates of Rock n Roll ..the phony - baloney Christian that flips his cross upside down.. Get a life .
Newsflash! He’s a spoofer from Dublin who tells people what they want to hear and knows they are dumb enough to lap up the Blarney. As he would say “cop on to yourself”.
No matter the haters I’ve been a loyal fan since 1984
This was one of the best Colbert questionnaire ever, but of course it's Bono
I get that "me mother ironing" answer, Irish also. The smell of the freshly washed clothes with the steam from the iron, damn Bono, you got me there.
Bono's answer to what happens when we die is perfect! Love Bono. He is adorable.
It's perfect if you believe in gods. I do not. The best answer to the question was given by Keanu Reeves.
i've met him. he's actually a total prick
@@sofiaraysWhat he says bro?
@@nicpeters3306 What happens when you die? Keanu Reeves: “People who love you will miss you.” The best answer, and most accurate.
The spotted paparazzi 😂👍🏾
That was Great! Lol 😆
That was by far, the best Colbert questioneer episode.
I wish I could share a drink with this guy. Listen to this music for a long time. Got me through some tough times. Made me think. Made me care.
Thank you for this! The local news cut into this bit because of approaching hurricane Nicole! The 2 of them are so funny!!!!
One of my fave most entertaining, hilariously funny, so sarcastically mischievous, interesting and fascinating Colbert Questionnaire ever. Love Bono, great answers. Him and Stephen are so awesome together, like best friends for many years. Love hearing Bono’s boyish charming laugh. He is absolutely adorably cute. Adore the favourite smell is of his mother ironing. What a sweet memory. ❤😆🤣😂🥹 🥃
Over 40 years of fame and still grounded and liquid. A special being. Can’t wait to get the book.
Yeah with all the zuckerberg shares he bought into...hangs about with George soros tells you all you need to know
A WEF puppet
Grounded in the liquid
I love how Bono instantly adjusted his pitch the moment the guitar started. So Pro.
Really great human being. Generous, talented and funny. Smart!
.
Wow who would have thought Bono was so F'n Funny; Loved this!
The BEST Colbert Questionnaire in history!
Best Colbert segment and I love Bono's witty candor and having a drink with Steve. I would love to hang out with them and if the Edge joined, that would be awesome. Love U2 always
Forever love U2, from the first record I heard on KROQ, Pasadena,CA, circa 1982 to the last note we hear from them...
Great segment... " my mother's ironing". Who doesn't love his mama ?
my favourite is my wife's hair
Bono is spot on about the Irish accent having an impact in the Caribbean.
I'm quite sure there is also an Irish influence on American accents, I can hear that all the time, as well as lots of other influence of course.
It makes total sense to me
But there is also almost certainly an influence of American accents on the Irish (and others) accent today given the huge cultural influence America has in the modern world.
guy has pretty much a PhD in Irish Affairs lmao
Is he spot on? I mean, we in Ireland, don't have a British accent, despite them being here a lot longer than any Irish person has been in the Caribbean.
Hilarious!!!! “The spotted paparazzi!!!!!”😅😂😂😂😂😂
Dance of the quick witted, nimble minds. 😂. I love it!
Giggle, a little alcohol helps too.
This was what the Questionert was designed for. Bono's a legend.. of course it's only part 1!
Yeah! the way he raised billions in his fundraisers for starving children in Africa will always be legendary status.......
Especially when people actually have the audacity to criticize him for only giving 5% of the proceeds to the stated purpose.... His response was legendary.
He started giving 1%. He said F you I'm Bono
@@hectormorales5306 Very True my Brother! God Bless your comment!
@@hectormorales5306 that controversy is fake news. Google it
"The spotted papparazi." Best laugh I had all day. 😝😻
I love Stephen and he went toe to toe with Bono. Held is own and then some
If I could have a beer with anyone in a pub, I swear Bono would be at the top of the list. Great segment!
When we die, that's when we begin, we're born, says Bono. That's amazing.
lol
No, it's ludicrous.
Usually i love Bono's words, but yeah that was ludicrous.
Don’t use the word amazing
Reincarnation...the tunnel of light at death us the first light seen at your birth. Very TIBETAN MONK Spirituality.....they have disciplined the mind and spirit to leave and re -enter the living world.
Mother ironing super sweet. ❤️
The best interview ever. Love Bono from🇨🇦
Ever? Come on...
I'm not Irish, but Ireland is in my heart. Iloved when the question was favourit action movie and Bono stood up and saied anything with Liam Neeson in it.
Most satisfying Colbert Questionnaire yet for me 😊
Best interview of this year.
I will always love Bono. I’m thankful that I got to meet him outside of a hotel after a Texas gig way back in 1987. He spent about 20 minutes talking with our small group of fans and is truly funny, kind and intelligent in person just as he is here. ❤
Only he’s turned into a WEF globalist, elitist politician full of non answers
I know him too! He used to cut our grass.
A WEF puppet
@@gennietayfer7514 CORRECT! A pusher of their agenda while he lives in his mansion.
SIMPLYY BEAUTIFUL INTERVIEW. THANK YOU GENTS👍💯💯💯
Loved that man then & love him now. Sweetest souk in Rock n Roll... Bono. Love u 2 Steven..differently?
These two are on fire. love this interview
Bono, and the Edge are Icon Legends in the music industry! Island Records Rock!! Thanks 🙏 Chris Blackwell. Give thanks 🙏
Best Bono interview I’ve seen in years 👏🏽👏🏽
Just another Legend from Ireland.
As a proud Bajan I love the interview especially for the Barbados mention and he was referring to "Redlegs" for their ruddy complexion!!! Salute to Bono for the recognition!!
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE.
And my 2nd CONCERT ever in VANCOUVER CANADA. LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🌎🌎🌎❤❤❤🎶🎶🎶
BEST Questionert EVER! Bono was genuinely surprised to recall the Ali autograph! Cool memory.
When I met Bono, he drew a funny watch on my wrist.
I mean I didn’t know I could love Bono anymore but he is pure genius and a comedic genius and a genius
He’s a genius as well!
Smoke another one, genius. 😂
You have to be american to consider bono a "genius "
Theres a Bono in every pub in Ireland!
You re kinda of special huh
Best Questionert ever!
I've been waiting days for this part of the interview. Well worth the wait.
'Scariest Animal : The spotted Paparazzi!!' This one killed me and had me on the floor🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣 "That was right on time" as my friend would say
I don't even drink, and yet, I'd love to go out to some pub and just pick Bono's brain. I've been a fan of his since forever!
Better if you smoked a Dubbee with him. He’s earthy and natural! I’ll join you with him 😂
Good one Bono. I wasn’t sure but you are a good hearted fellow. Nice one. Xx
“I’m a songwriter, not a mathematician.” MIC DROP!!!! 😅😂🤣😭
Best Colbert questionnaire of all!
I owe this man thanks for all the years of wonderful entertainment. ❤😊
😊 oh myyy the best one yet 🙌🏻👏🏻👏🏻 absolutely phenomenal
I always liked Bono and U2's music, but now I REALLY like him.
Of all the people who have taken the Colbert Questionert, Bono has been the most interesting and funny at the same time.
That would be the alcohol.
He is a very funny man. Very dry humor. Check out the clip of when they were on Graham Norton. He was hilarious. Best concert I have ever seen too hands down the best.
That ugly clone?.dear me
@@ssuwandi3240 what?
Ethan Hawke was quite good as well ❤
What a lovely interview. Bono's fav smell is his mother's ironing? Oh my, Iris what a good man... and his fav action movie is "anything of Liam Neeson's"? Aren't they for us all?
A WEF puppet
Love me some Bono. 😍😍love me some history lesson.
Probably the best version of this ever
I thought, "Daaaamn! Bono's a geezer now!" A chill ran down my spine and I bolted from the chair, ran to the bathroom and looked in the mirror with terrified horror at the old man staring back at me.
Ikr? I’ve been in love with Bono and U2 since 1982 and it still feels like yesterday. But the mirror reminds me it was 40 years ago 😢
@@michellekeefe2419 It's amazing how quickly it all/life passes. We rent our time!
I feel ya. I often forget I'm on the backside of 60 now...yet I'm sitting here with a drink in a Who t-shirt. 😎😻😝
THE best Colbert Questionert ever!
great artist with a magic voice🤟🙏
PLEASE sweet God - let us experience more of this legend before he goes up to Heaven (hopefully not soon at all). 😍🙏🏽
This is fabulous
Great stuff here. Always good to see Bono and Steven together
I so luv this dude, and Stephen is nice too.
Woooow this questionaire was interesting. I like how Bono and Sting have almost the same idea about life after death. Bono is great 🥰
That one got me good "The spotted PapaRATzi"
Hilarious
This was great!!! Thank you!!!
Love Bono. Thank you. ❤
stephen's bein a really good sport
Bono questionert loved it!!! ❤️🥰☘️
He's feeling spicy! 😂
Fun to watch the whiskey start kicking in.
Isn't it rum? Google came up with Havana Club Selection de Maestros
He reminded me of Robin Williams during this interview.
A sleeping Robin Williams maybe.
Favorite Smell? My Mother ironing...Oh My Gosh! I had forgotten all ABOUT that smell but YES and I can smell it now!! My Mother took in ironing for other people and she had that ironing board right in the living room. Man. The smell of the spray starch and the hiss of her old steam iron and the had a Coke bottle full of water, with a cork on top with holes drilled into it, to sprinkle the clothes as she ironed. That was a LOVELY answer!
Very similar, although my mom drank the Coke.
omg my mom had a coke bottle too..the cork had a metal thingy with small holes on it....I LOVE that smell.
@@RTCrmCreative Fortunately didn't snort it.
@@Kat-gx3se My Mom used to always hum as she was ironing. Ironing really is relaxing! I never do it anymore but Lord knows I could USE the relaxation.
I would think the elusive unspotted paparazzi would be more frightening
Thank you 🙏 that was actually quite funny 🤘💚😂💐
I loved him when he said “anything with Liam Nesson in it”
"Schindler's List"? Action movie? Really?
@@ericminch Liam Neeson is Irish, so he was just saying anything with Neeson in it JUST because he's Irish.
@@blackporscheroadster6415 Yeah, but he played Michael Collins, and you have to be *really* Irish for that:)
And he *stood* *up* saying it too!
2:17 mark -- The way Bono wraps his hand around that tumbler, and me knowing my own drinking affects, I will hazard a pretty sure guess that he is hammered early on! 🥃
OF COURSE HE SAID LEMONS!!! I was so sad when it wasn't included in the Songs of Surrender - but I hope we'll see a Zooropa comeback soon!!!
Zooropa is soooo underrated and so ahead of its time!! It's cool that it has become so beloved amongst younger U2 fans like myself. Hopefully as appreciation for it has grown the band will start giving it more attention! "Lemon" is such an amazing song. It manages to be this kinda weird Bowie-esque dance song that also has moments of fragile beauty. The lyrics have a depth that has grown for me over time. That song has so many levels that take time to reveal themselves.
It's taken many years but the Colbert show has finally developed the technology to add denominators to their videos!!
Next thing you know they'll be uploading them in the correct order... We can only dream.
This is the best one yet. So much love.
Two very cool dudes.
Stephen should be awarded big time for his timely punchlines which match with his funny facial expressions lol 🤣😆 not exaggerating but Stephen is so F funny 🤣🏆🏆💯
Talent
Saw U2 in the 80's at a tremendous show Wynonna Judd was in the audience and came onstage to sing one song with the band. Even after that, it was probably the best live concert I ever saw out of 100's. It was the "Joshua Tree" tour.
Bono speaks in poetic nuance even in just casual conversation.
I mean, I can see why people don't like Bono, but I love him.
I don't really care for Bono. U2 is too sincere and heartfelt for my taste. But he's very smart and quick witted.
I got Bono's and The Edge's autographs on my beige Converse high top canvas sneakers in 1988 after their first Madison Square garden concert! We found out the hotel they were staying at and stayed outside waiting for them to come out. They came out after seeing us form the bar in the hotel. Talked to us for about 30 min. Its a memory I treasure! I still have those sneakers, in storage. I guess at that time Bono hadn't met Ali yet cause it was just his name on my sneakers!
I was surprised these two never got into religion much in their interview. Nice to see a little bit of it here. I think they would have LOTS to talk about.
Colbert does sometimes. He's a "fierce" Catholic. And Bono is the Irishest of the Irish, so lmao
I opened for Bono back in 2015 for an event for Wells Fargo at the Versace mansion South Beach. Dude was so down to earth and humble and got paid $1M for an hour show I'll never forget it
Don, thanks for sharing your experience .
That's a heckuva memory to have in life!! 😀
@@humanforotherhumans Bono is a fake
He loves his money!
@@Paulco67 I have never met him.
I was so in love with Bono when I was like 12. Loved U2. The first CD I ever bought was 'Boy'.. My s*xual awakening was 'Achtung Baby' and watching all the videos they had on MTV, Bono crooning passion into the universe...I am 42 now, and I loved him starting when he was 32. I hope someday to see this band in person. At a time when my teeny bopper friends were swooning over New Kids on the Block I started listening to rock through U2, and they helped me be braver to become the person I wanted to be, even though I was then shunned and/or bullied by my classmates when they found out. Much thanks and gratitude to U2, your music helped my soul to blossom, hopefully someday I can tell them in person, even though I realize they probably hear that from so many people and I'd be gone the very second after I could express this. At least writing this here has had a bit of a therapeutic effect! I wish them well!🥰
A WEF puppet
@@gennietayfer7514 don't bring politics or your opinion of Bono into my comment please.
The spotted paparazzi 😆😆😆
This segment HAS to include drinking every time from now on!
do you play the organ was phenomenal 😂
