If you don't think Edge was influenced by Bo Diddley, think again? P.S you will have to click on top link for "Desire".

The "Bo Diddley" beat has influenced tons of bands. Here's some other songs that use it:

There's a passage in "The Sweetest Thing" where Bono sings "I'm Losing You" and it reminds me of John Lennon singing the same exact lyric.

Here are two that I have always suspected that the guitar player was Warren Haynes but no one knows for sure? There seems to be quite the internet arguments about who it really was playing the guitar? Kingsford won't comment on it, so it's are guess? My money is on Warren! Also while I was posting this I realized my U2 Desire wasn't working, so here it is again.

I don't understand why Marvin Gaye's estate didn't go after this guy (john Mayer) for this one....(even just enough to make him go the **** away!)

I think you are thinking of this one...

Which uses a sample from this ABBA song ...

But she did pay for it, it was a big thing apparently because ABBA never have allowed anyone to do this before.
