I'm still trying to decide wether I think Bono is a good lyricist, or simply a good singer. He does sing some good words, but he doesn't capture the moods with just lyrics in the way that Dylan can. Of course, "sunlight, sunlight fills my room. It's sharp and it's clear but nothing at all like the moon" is pretty nice. Is it as good as "The ghost of electricity howls in the bones of her face" though?
