The Zoo TV Tour had become such a self-referential, meta circus of its own—with its TV assault on the senses and Bono portraying self-created characters like “The Fly” and the devil-horned “MacPhisto”—that it might have been easy to forget (if not for the Trabis used as lighting all over the stage) that “Zoo” initially referred to the famous Zoo stop on Berlin’s U-Bahn (subway). In 1990, U2 had begun recording Achtung Baby at Hansa Studios in Berlin, tapping into the city’s newly reunified status for the album’s political concept and its legacy of musical experimentation for its industrial-dance influences. “The idea of Berlin may have come from [producer Brian] Eno, because at one time [in the ’70s] Eno had lived in Berlin with David Bowie and Iggy Pop, the three of them in one squabblesome apartment in Kreuzberg,” recalls McGuinness . a b "Tous les "Chart Runs" des Albums classés despuis 1985" (in French).

Notes

First, advertising dollars go up and down with the economy. We often only know a few months out what our advertising revenue will be, which makes it hard to plan ahead. Bream, John. "Oct 26, 1997: Bono sounds off on the PopMart tour". Star Tribune . Retrieved 12 October 2022.
