    "comment": "U2 released 'Wide Awake in America' on this day in 1985.\n\n\"Bad\", a song about addiction, went on to become a staple of the band's live sets, particularly after an extended 14 minute performance at Live Aid in which Bono danced with a guest in the audience.\n\n\"Bad\" was recorded live at the NEC in Birmingham, England. In fact, none of the songs on 'Wide Awake in America' were recorded in America.",
