Love that song"

When he had that song ready he turned up for recording in a suit, he knew it was that great.

When he put his mind to it he could write a great song in any genre but his use of the English language was up there with any great poet or author in my humble opinion.

Having a great decency about him helped too.

An honorable mention to Niall O'Flaherty of the Sultans of Ping who didn't take things too seriously but was capable of pure tongue in cheek brilliance.

I think it has to be Bono. The guy might be a tosser. But you can't argue with that list.
