A few pointers; this song was released on All That You Can’t Leave Behind which came out in 2000 [a time before 9/11] so it wasn't written for those events but after they did happen, U2 transformed it into a song of hope for the millions affected.
Another point, Aung San Suu Kyi is a non-violent, pro-democracy activist who has been under house arrest for many years. For more information on her see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aung_San_Suu_Kyi
This song is amazing, and I’m sure I’m not the only one who feels that Bono is talking to YOU when he sings it. It seems that every line relates to me [as I’m sure it does to everyone else who listens to it]. I don’t think I have a favourite line but I really love;
What you got they can’t steal it,
No they can’t even feel it
Walk on, walk on...
Stay safe tonight
This song has helped me through some tough times and I thank God for it and for U2’####### – it is nothing short of a gift.
