Eyes in a Moment of Blindness

Hey folks!

So, I like to think I have an eclectic music taste - I'll listen to anything from dubstep to country. So obviously, I have quite a bit of music, and in that, quite a bit of U2.

So when I first looked at this video, I thought it was just a really cool gimmick that turned out better than expected at a U2 concert in Nashville - Bono picks a guy out of the crowd, lets the guy select a song, and then the guy plays guitar while Bono sings. Cool - and the guy gets to keep the guitar.

Then I read the description - turns out this guy was blind. Suddenly, the song choice (look at the lyrics) becomes more meaningful, and the entire thing becomes WAY cooler.

Enjoy.
