That's MY line sez Bono, chucks tantrum
2004-11-16
Bono Vs Hawkins
Bono recorded line for Band Aid 20's rehash of Band Aid: 'Do they know it's Christmas?' His famous line was ... "Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you". But Justin Hawkins of The Darkness also recorded it - and did such a great job that Bono's line was in jeopardy. Bono chucked a spaz and jumped on a jet. Hawins sez "I did it and I did it better than him" Going on to say if Bono couldn't get it right they'd use the original one they recorded all those years ago "when Bono was my age" But Bono's management had Justin's line tossed, insisting Bono's would be the one used.

hahahah, nothing better than a good celeb ego-stoush,especially from one so pompous as Bono!
