The vibe gets much better a couple songs later as Bono sings the praises of New York's own Lou Reed and a recent meeting with his widow, Laurie Anderson. He and Edge proceed to sing "Satellite Of Love," which hasn't been played in full since December 10, 1993. The song is performed just like the Zoo TV version, with Reed's image appearing on the video screen and singing in a sort of faux-duet with Bono.
Another surprise later in the show as Paul Simon comes on stage to sing "Mother And Child Reunion." He sings extra lyrics that Bono doesn't normally do when snippeting the song before "Streets," and the duet goes on longer than is typical, so we're listing this as a separate song performance.
A host of celebrities are at the show, including Chelsea Clinton, Simon LeBon (prompting the "Girls On Film" snippet, no doubt), Mike Peters, Julian Lennon and actress Jessica Chastain, who gets a shout-out during "Beautiful Day."
