Hi Feiticiera!  Your title is correct here, but U2 (the band) did not do it.  You are partly correct, in that U2's singer (Bono) was involved in this collaboration.  Keep trying on the other part!  ;)

12. "In A Lifetime" - was that Clannad with Bono?

sorry if I've breached some board etiquette here Feiticiera - maybe I'm supposed to give you a chance at a second guess?? I would never have got this from the lyric alone so your first guess and the clue really got me there.

Hi 80s_ cheerleader!  You know I had tried to post the answer last night, but for some reason I lost my connection and so it never showed up on page 1.  You are right, and so I have given you the credit for it!  

Regarding the correct lyric, I listened to the song and got the line from that.  That's what it sounded like to me, but I could be wrong.  :-/  

Thanks for finishing this quiz!  ;)
