I never realised that, a really beautiful song.

Bono ain’t no saint an probably has the most dirtiest of skeletons in his cupboard, if only people knew, not a conversation for tattle, as I’m here, like most of us, lol, to try and keep it to basic goss seshs and not to get too complicated with corrupt world govments and propaganda pushing.
OK xxx
You can have your own opinions on how he died, there’s no need for the whole thread to reach a consensus on it. it’s not necessary that anyone has to get anyone else to change their mind.
It wasn’t the case at all, I had somehow assumed his death was recorded as autoerotic asphyxiation so I found it an interesting conversation, not trying to change anyone’s mind on anything. I was here for a Peaches Geldof thread so in that sense, there’s now a whole thread on Micheal Hutchence and Bono, it’s interesting conversation.

Wow that is beautiful
Well it’s a good job that the Geldof family thread went”off-topic” to talk about Michael then, since you didn’t know the verdict on his deathIt wasn’t the case at all, I had somehow assumed his death was recorded as autoerotic asphyxiation so I found it an interesting conversation, not trying to change anyone’s mind on anything.

debating on and on whether people taking their own life naked is where I felt it was going off topic
I don’t mean this as a dig, but there’s a conspiracy theories thread on here where I’m sure a lot of people would be interested in that conversation.

To keep it on topic, I didn’t realise Paula Yates wrote that many books!

I just
I wonder how much Paula wrote of Sex and Death. I know it was about dealing with grief.
Does anyone know where I can read Paula’s autobiography on line?
I’ve just finished reading Gerry Agar’s Book and Belinda Brewins. I did start Michael’s mothers book but, it wasn’t written in a way that caught my attention so I’m not sure what book has the most accurate portrait of him.
A sense of futility was my experience in the aforementioned books.

Well it went off topic and no I didn’t know the verdict on his death or Paula’s actually. I did know he was found naked and I remembered speculation on his death so was discussing, at which point it was part of conversation.

Simon Le Bon was part of the same set hanging out with Bono and MH.
He wrote a very sombre song called "Michael you've got a lot to answer for" just before MH died.

He didn't write it for Michael he wrote it for Paula after Michael died. If you read her autobiography she was very close to Bono in her own right as well as through Bob.
I don’t doubt that they were close in their own right, but was it maybe a different song that was for Paula? U2’s own website says it was about Michael.
Awful really messy and emotionally damaging.
I’m so intrigued!
Probably best not to go there
Also definitely not wanting to derail this thread about the Geldof family.
I stand corrected! It just feels like a song you'd write for the living not the dead but maybe it was capturing a previous conversation as implied. As Bono also sang at Paula's funeral it just felt like a better fit. Thanks for the additional info :+)
I found a listicle https://listverse.com/2023/03/17/10-intriguing-items-rock-and-roll-legends-took-to-their-graves/
and no2 is a video of Michael’s funeral, it says this about Paula

No worries! I know what you mean, it’s such an encouraging song (maybe more musically than lyrically though). I didn’t know he sang it at her funeral, that can’t have been easy for him.
