Bono Rules Out the Political Podium...

Bono has spoken out about his love of U2 but says there are no fears that he may be leaving for a career in politics.

"I don't think of myself as a great singer but I sing from a great place. That place is U2. Politicians don't turn me on. Politics does not turn me on the way music does. I have a lot more respect for them then I used to have. They work a lot harder than I thought they did but I don't want to be one."

Would he ever consider a move into politics?

"I don't think I could live with the pay cut of the move to a smaller house."

What about the bands new album?

"The day after we finished the Elevation tour we started work on the new album. We are using a unused bar nightclub in the South of France to record it in. Its very punk rock and very like the old places we used to play in. Maybe it was the venue but the music was very lo-fi high energy. One of the songs might just make it onto our best of album which comes out later this year."
