The Unforgettable Help

Image 1 and 2: 'The Unforgettable Help' starts with an easily discernable division in 4 sections in both album covers. We can actually divide them with vertical lines separating each Beatle and in U2’s case separating each section of the castle. 


Video: Play the video loop to appreciate two amazing connections. First, how both album covers have a strangely similar layout. You will see how The Beatles in the Help cover, fit creepingly well within The Unforgettable Fire's mid section with exact simmetrical top-and-bottom allignment. And secondly, In the middle of the Zoo TV Tour in 1992, U2 (in partnership with Greenpeace) journeyed in a boat to protest the nuclear danger the Sellafield Nuclear Plant represented, and when they arrived to the shore, as a cry for Help to the world, they posed referencing The Beatles Help! cover. How does this relates to the Unforgettable Fire? The Nuclear Bomb was one of the main theme drivers behind that album.


Image 3: Is that Bono drawing a "Help!" Sign in his notebook during the recording of the Unforgettable Fire Album in Slane Castle?
