Zooropa... Vorsprung durch Technik

Zooropa... it could be yours tonight
We're mild and green, and squeaky clean

Zooropa... fly the friendly skies
Through appliance of science
We've got that ring of confidence....

Break: Play riff1. Silence. Play Riff 2 LOUD!

Bono said he was influenced by sci-fi writer William Gibson while making this album, so the concept I described in the previous post may have some relation with this

The "And I have no religion" line isn't supposed to be a statement. It is just saying that he is lost and God is lost amid the emptiness of the media/our commercialistic culture. There is a theme throughout the whole album of trying to find God in our oversaturated empty consumeralist culture.

An anti-commercialism song, also concerned with the European Union trying to point out the problems and negative consequences of a one-nation-continent like Europe has become ("no particular place names, no particular songs") Every European country is disappearing, leaving its place to Europe, so perhaps in the future there'll be no nations, just the continent Europe
