0:02:00 > 0:02:03# It shoots up from the stony ground

0:02:03 > 0:02:05# There's no room

0:02:07 > 0:02:10# No space to rent in this town

0:02:10 > 0:02:11# You're out of luck

0:02:15 > 0:02:17# And the reason that you had to care

0:02:17 > 0:02:19# The traffic is stuck

0:02:21 > 0:02:24# You're not moving anywhere

0:02:24 > 0:02:27# You thought you'd found a friend

0:02:28 > 0:02:31# To take you out of this place

0:02:31 > 0:02:35# Someone you could lend a hand

0:02:35 > 0:02:37# In return for grace

0:02:37 > 0:02:43# It's a beautiful day

0:02:43 > 0:02:45# The sky falls, you feel like

0:02:45 > 0:02:50# It's a beautiful day

0:02:52 > 0:02:54# You're on the road

0:02:57 > 0:03:00# But you've got no destination

0:03:00 > 0:03:02# You're in the mud

0:03:03 > 0:03:06# In the maze of her imagination

0:03:06 > 0:03:08# You love this town

0:03:11 > 0:03:14# Even if that doesn't ring true

0:03:14 > 0:03:18# You've been all over

0:03:18 > 0:03:20# And it's been all over you

0:03:20 > 0:03:25# It's a beautiful day

0:04:00 > 0:04:04# See China right in front of you

0:04:04 > 0:04:08# See the canyons broken by cloud

0:04:08 > 0:04:11# See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out

0:04:11 > 0:04:15# See the Bedouin fires at night

0:04:15 > 0:04:18# See the oil fields at first light and

0:04:18 > 0:04:22# See the bird with a leaf in her mouth

0:04:22 > 0:04:29# After the flood all the colours came out

0:04:31 > 0:04:36# It was a beautiful day

0:04:36 > 0:04:38# Don't let it get away

0:04:38 > 0:04:43# Beautiful day

0:04:57 > 0:05:00# I know I'm not a hopeless case

0:05:00 > 0:05:03# What you don't have you don't need it now

0:05:03 > 0:05:08# What you don't know you can feel it somehow

0:05:08 > 0:05:10# What you don't know you don't need it now

0:05:49 > 0:05:53# Blackbird singing in the dead of night

0:05:56 > 0:06:01# Take these swollen eyes and learn to see

0:06:03 > 0:06:05# All your life

0:06:07 > 0:06:12# You had just been waiting for this moment to arrive

0:06:13 > 0:06:16# Blackbird fly. #

0:07:10 > 0:07:13# 16th of June, nine-o-five, doorbell rings

0:07:13 > 0:07:16# Man at the door says if I want to stay alive a bit longer

0:07:18 > 0:07:20# There's a few things I need you to know

0:07:21 > 0:07:26# Three coming from a long line of travelling sales people on my mother's side

0:07:26 > 0:07:29# I wasn't gonna buy just anyone's cockatoo

0:07:29 > 0:07:33# So, why would I invite a complete stranger into my home?

0:07:33 > 0:07:34# Would you?

0:07:35 > 0:07:40# These days are better than that

0:07:40 > 0:07:47# These days are better than that

0:07:48 > 0:07:54# Every day I die again and again I'm reborn

0:07:54 > 0:08:00# Every day I have to find the courage

0:08:00 > 0:08:05# To walk out into the street

0:08:05 > 0:08:08# With arms out

0:08:08 > 0:08:10# To the people we meet

0:08:10 > 0:08:14# Neither down or out... #

0:08:14 > 0:08:20Hey! # There's nothing you have that I need

0:08:20 > 0:08:22# I can breathe

0:08:24 > 0:08:29# Breathe now

0:08:30 > 0:08:33# 16th of June, Chinese stocks are going up

0:08:33 > 0:08:36# And I'm coming down with some new Asian virus

0:08:37 > 0:08:40# Ju Ju man, Ju Ju man

0:08:40 > 0:08:43# Doc says you're fine or dying! Please

0:08:43 > 0:08:46# Nine-o-nine, St John Divine on the line

0:08:46 > 0:08:47# My pulse is fine

0:08:48 > 0:08:51# But I'm running down the road like loose electricity

0:08:51 > 0:08:54# While the band in my head plays a striptease

0:08:55 > 0:09:01# The roar that lies on the other side of silence

0:09:01 > 0:09:07# The forest fire that is fear, so deny it

0:09:07 > 0:09:13# Walk out into the street

0:09:13 > 0:09:16# With your arms out

0:09:16 > 0:09:19# Not knowing defeat

0:09:19 > 0:09:22# Neither down or out

0:09:22 > 0:09:27# There's nothing you have that I need

0:09:28 > 0:09:30# I can breathe

0:09:32 > 0:09:38# Breathe now... #

0:09:45 > 0:09:47Stay with us, now.

0:09:54 > 0:09:55BONO HUMS

0:10:16 > 0:10:19# We are people borne of sound

0:10:19 > 0:10:22# The songs are in our eyes

0:10:22 > 0:10:26# Gonna wear them like a crown

0:10:26 > 0:10:33# Walk, walk, walk out into a sunburst street

0:10:34 > 0:10:39# Sing your heart, sing your heart on Regent Street,

0:10:39 > 0:10:42# I've got grace inside a sound

0:10:42 > 0:10:46# I found grace, it's all that I found

0:10:47 > 0:10:50# Oh, I can breathe

0:10:52 > 0:10:57# Breathe, breathe now. #

0:10:59 > 0:11:01Still breathing...

0:11:16 > 0:11:24# Breathe. #

0:11:25 > 0:11:28AUDIENCE CHEERS

0:11:34 > 0:11:36That was amazing!

0:11:36 > 0:11:38That's The Edge's guitar pick.

0:11:38 > 0:11:39It was fantastic!

0:11:39 > 0:11:41Wooo!

0:11:41 > 0:11:42Did Bono see your flag?

0:11:42 > 0:11:44We weren't allowed to put it up.

0:11:44 > 0:11:47It'll be up for when they play on the roof later on.

0:11:47 > 0:11:50Yes, good afternoon, friends, and thanks so much for tuning in.

0:11:50 > 0:11:56Welcome to All Requestion Friday and U2 are here with us in the Studio Special.

0:11:56 > 0:12:00Between now and six, they choose the music whilst you pose the questions.

0:12:00 > 0:12:03Will it be ABBA for Bono or is he more of a Mavericks man?

0:12:03 > 0:12:08Will The Edge go out on a limb to bring us some '70s glam or is he more of an '80s cheese boy?

0:12:08 > 0:12:13And what will Larry and Adam want the mighty All Request Friday jukebox to play?

0:12:13 > 0:12:17It's All Requestion Friday with U2 and you, too all here.

0:12:17 > 0:12:20On the radio, now on live, so let's get out of the box.

0:12:23 > 0:12:27THEY CHATTER

0:12:28 > 0:12:35'Mind the doors. Doors closing. Doors opening. Lift going up.

0:12:35 > 0:12:41'Mind the doors. Doors closing. Lift going up.'

0:12:44 > 0:12:46Adam's back on the cheeseburgers.

0:12:51 > 0:12:55So, normally All Request Friday, it's All Requestion Friday

0:12:55 > 0:12:58with U2 live in the studio. This is BBC Radio 2.

0:12:58 > 0:13:00It's ten past five, now.

0:13:00 > 0:13:03You said that the band had about 60 songs to choose from for this album.

0:13:03 > 0:13:05Why didn't you do a double-album?

0:13:05 > 0:13:08That's from, um, Textfields.

0:13:08 > 0:13:13We kinda felt that rather than just do the one album that maybe we would do the two.

0:13:13 > 0:13:20We just weren't gonna do them at the same time. So, we may well release another album next year.

0:13:20 > 0:13:22You may well or you will?

0:13:22 > 0:13:25That's a big announcement just happened on the Chris Evans show.

0:13:25 > 0:13:30- A scoop already, that's all right. - I said it may well. - All right, here we go...

0:13:32 > 0:13:38- Sal's here now, hello Sal.- Hello. I have to say, I'm a little bit overwhelmed.- I'm not surprised!

0:13:38 > 0:13:41I've never seen so... Oh, my... Whose hands are those?

0:13:41 > 0:13:44Whose do they feel like? Are they short and stubby?

0:13:44 > 0:13:47- They're very silky. - No, it's not Larry, it's Bono.

0:13:47 > 0:13:48- THEY LAUGH - It's Elton John.

0:13:48 > 0:13:52In North Lanarkshire, there's a diesel spillage causing delays...

0:13:52 > 0:13:55Uh, it's never seemed so attractive, I don't know why.

0:13:55 > 0:13:58The A73 from Chapelhall to Airdrie is badly affected.

0:13:58 > 0:14:02If you're on that stretch or off the...on the A89 towards Calder,

0:14:02 > 0:14:05there are some bits where there's oil and so...it....

0:14:05 > 0:14:10might be difficult...for you... if you're driving. Uh, the M6 Southbound...oh, my goodness...

0:14:22 > 0:14:27All right, now it's nearly six o'clock. For us, something's gonna happen in the next hour.

0:14:27 > 0:14:33Who knows what it could be? You could have something up your sleeve, you might have nothing planned.

0:14:33 > 0:14:36You've got to deliver us something pretty special. Could you do that?

0:14:36 > 0:14:41- I think we could probably try. - You could have a little rest for a while, maybe? Get ready for it?

0:14:41 > 0:14:47- Anyone's doing any shopping on Regent Street, that might be fun. - Oh, for heaven's sake!

0:14:47 > 0:14:49You got it, all right. That's good news.

0:14:49 > 0:14:51So, they've chosen the tunes...

0:14:51 > 0:14:55Bono! Bono! Bono! Bono!

0:14:59 > 0:15:05Go round to Regent Street. Regent Street. Go now!

0:15:05 > 0:15:07What's the store?
