On hand to promote his newly-published memoir, “Surrender: 40 Songs, One Story,” the rocker blended spoken word segments from the book into “The Joshua Tree” classic, which provided the band with their first US No. 1 hit.
Prior to the performance, Bono sat down for an interview with Colbert, telling tales of the group’s origins and, among other things, sharing insight into their songwriting process, and, his thoughts on the development of America as a concept and a country.
The Late Show is sharing video of an extended version of the interview online, which you can view below.
This week, Bono launched a 14-city world tour in New York to promote the memoir.
