Bono is a huge fan of the Arctic Monkeys.
The U2 frontman thinks the Sheffield rockers have been a breath of fresh air in the current music scene and loves frontman Alex Turner's lyrics.
Speaking at Monday's (30.10.06) Q Awards, Bono said: "I think they are great. They write great tunes and they are really honest. Honesty can clear a room. They are young and they have a great future ahead of them."
Bono - whose band scooped the Q Award of Awards, while U2 guitarist The Edge landed the prize for Innovation in Sound at the prestigious event - also admitted he thought U2 were underserved winners of their prize.
He added: "There are loads of other bands who deserve this award, like Radiohead, Primal Scream or Oasis. I absolutely love Primal Scream."
Arctic Monkeys walked away with two gongs, Best Album for 'Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not' and The People's Choice Award.
