Bono encapsulated the spirit of Frank Sinatra in his composition. Bono references this in his current book, out now called Surrender.
The chorus keywords penned by Bono: Two shots of happiness One shot of sadness – with the song ending on the chorus: One shot of happiness Two shots of sadness, is profound.
Given that Frank passed away shortly afterward. Bono encapsulated in his lyrics the essence of the bad boy image of Frank Sinatra. What can you encapsulate within your latest composition???
