Hi everybody,

Regarding Invisible sun by Sting, it's a long time since i first heard a live version in which Bono joins in for the last couple of minutes... and I have always wondered when and where it was recorded... I'm courious specially because it was not 'till I heard Bono singing it when I realized about the lyrics...

"I don't want to spend the rest of my life
Looking at the barrel of an Armalite
I don't want to spend the rest of my days
Keeping out of trouble like the soldiers say

I don't want to spend my time in Hell
Looking at the walls of a prison cell
I don't ever wanna play the part
Of a statistic on a government chart "

I mean, I remember actually singing the song while I heard it before, but it wasn't 'till then when I noticed that it could be interpreted in a way related to Northern Ireland :-)

So, going back to what i wanted to know, anyone knows when and/or where Bono joined Sting to sing it?

Thanks in advance, -sl�n
