 | U2 again used a snippet of Paul Simon's song, this time it is America before they started the song Bad.
I believe they used a few lines of mother and Child Reuinion on the last tour before starting Where the Streets have no name. Paul was on stage with them in New York.
So far the only clip i could find.
The line is also used at the end of the song..

  | Thanks for the link to the clips Erwin. Nice to hear them sing America.
Here is the link to the Mother and Child Reunion song when Paul came on stage to sing a verse. Starts at around the 3 minute mark when Bono explains why they used the song. Picture quality improves by then too.

  | Hi Erwin, very intersting and nice find.
I guess not many U2 fans might recognize that ;-)
So Bono is a real fan eh? |

 | Bono (not Bodo) is really not tall - as Paul.
So they have something in common.
By the way Paul once said that he hates the word diminutive. Short would be ok.
