"The morning of our wedding day, August 31, 1982, I finally left home…"
It was forty years ago that Bono and Ali got married and to celebrate this special milestone, here's another original animation drawn from Bono’s forthcoming memoir "SURRENDER."
Watch the animation and in the comments below send your good wishes to Ali and Bono.
This striking short film created with Bono's hand-drawn illustrations is another great insight into "SURRENDER: 40 Songs, One Story," which will be published on November 1 and is available for preorder now using the links below.
"Two Hearts Beat As One", written on Ali & Bono’s honeymoon, is a song with special meaning for both of them.
Congratulations on your 40th anniversary !!!
I was also married in 1982 on June 12th so also celebrated 40 years this year. Time fly's for sure!
Have a great day!!
:)

Ejemplo de Amor
En esta época que el relativismo impera en Europa y tan raro es ver matrimonios que duren toda la vida, es una maravilla ver vuestro ejemplo de amor. Mi mujer también se llama Ali, 23 años casados, esperamos poder vivir también nuestro 40 aniversario. Saludos desde Madrid.

Milestone Reached
I want to say congratulations on achieving something most never do. 40 years with the same women and the same man. And what a lovely women Ali is. Bono is no slouch either. All my best to the two of you on another 40 years. Your story is an epic one.

"40" Is just a number or something else
40 it's a great Stage,
Love is a temple
Love is a higher law-
