Not just another U2 cover story...

The accolades continue to pile up for Bono, with the U2 man gracing the cover of this week's Time magazine.

Under the banner headline "Can Bono Save The World – Don't Laugh, The Globe's Biggest Rock Star Is On A Mission To Make A Difference", the singer talks at length about his humanitarian work.

"I'm tired of dreaming," he says. "I'm into doing at the moment. It's, like, let's only have goals that we can go after.

"U2 is about the impossible. Politics is the art of the possible. They're very different and I'm resigned to that now."
