Bono has admitted Christy Dignam could "out-sing" him as he paid an emotional tribute to the Aslan frontman.
Dignam died on Tuesday after a decade-long battle with cancer. Thousands of fans lined the streets of Finglas this morning to pay tribute to the singer as his cortege travelled through the north Dublin suburb before a private funeral.
Bono couldn't make the procession this morning but said he had been listening to Aslan regularly since news of Christy's death broke. The U2 star heaped praise on the band and their "extraordinary" singer, joking: "He kind of had everything, which is really annoying. He was so beautiful, this beautiful man with his devilish laugh and smile and then he sang like an angel and wrote these lyrics. These incredible lyrics."
