Sledgehammer - Peter Gabriel, probably because of the bizarre visuals/animation.

Mmm, better, but I'm not sure if many will know where his nickname came from (without cheating that is),if the answer is what I think it is.

<Ding!>

Paul David Hewson aka "Bono Vox".

"Bono Vox" is an alteration of Bonavox, a brand of hearing aid. The phrase in Latin translates to "good voice". "Bona Vox" was the name of a hearing aid shop they regularly passed in Dublin. It is said he was nicknamed "Bono Vox" after the shop by his friend Gavin Friday, of later Virgin Prunes fame, because he sang so loudly he seemed to be singing for the deaf. Initially, Bono did not like his name. However, when he learned it loosely translated to "good voice", he accepted it.

"Bono" has been known as "Bono" since the late seventies, even prior to formation of U2. Although he uses Bono as his stage name, close family and friends also refer to him as Bono, including his wife and fellow band members...and thats just bizzarre. "No Mom...call me Bono". :lol:
