U2 is an Irish rock group formed in 1976 in Dublin. The idea came from Bono, the leader of the group, he wanted to create a group with his High School friends. Aged 16 years old, the four boys decided to call their group « The Feedback « before calling U2.

The band consists of Bono (vocals), The Edge (guitar, vocals and keyboards), Adam Clayton (bass guitar), Larry Mullen Junior (drums and percussions). Their manager is Paul McGuinness. Since the 1980s, U2 has emerged as a major group all around the world. Since the middle of 1980s, the group defends the Human Rights and Bono, the singer, was in lists for the Nobel prize of peace in 2003 and in 2005.

Their singles are not done at random, "Sunday Bloody Sunday" commemorated the massacre of innocent civilians during the Irish troubles. Another song, "Bad", was about heroin addiction, which was a serious problem in their home town of Dublin at that time. "Pride" and "MLK" were both tributes to the modern-day leader they most admire, Martin Luther King.

Dit que c'est vrai, c'est vrai... And we can break through Et nous pouvons nous frayer un chemin Though torn in two Bien que déchirés en deux We can be one Nous pouvons être un I...
