Don't Come Knocking
No seu site, o realizador alemão Wim Wenders fala sobre alguns detalhes da musica «Don't Come Knocking» que Bono canta para a sua próxima produção
[...] Bono and Edge, amidst U2's stenuous (and highly successful) Vertigo Tour, managed to write a title track for the film!. They had intended to do so for a while, but the tour dates across America and then Europe, and especially Bono's activities with Live8, the One Campaign and the G8, had kept them from finding time to do the recording. Understandably so. These issues were far more important than a song! But our deadline was coming closer and closer, and it was a very simple one: when we had to start making release prints, it would be too late. I kept that date open as long as possible and never gave up the hope that things would work in the last minute. And they did!
Literally in that last minute the song came in. Bono now sings 'Don't come Knocking' together with Andrea (of The Corrs, of course). It's a magnificent piece! I got goose-pimples when we firts heard it and saw it with the picture. It has heartbreaking lyrics, and the duet with Bono and Andrea is stunning. T Bone Burnett, who composed and produced all the music for the film, also produced and finished this song. I can't wait for you all to hear it! [...]
