the Ghost Who, now that you mention it, does a bit more than just walk

You can tell it's Holy Week by the topics in the news, can't you? U2 schoolmate and skeptic Neil McCormick recounts, in an article titled "Mel Gibson made me a pop star," how his song "Harm's Way," credited to The Ghost Who Walks, ended up on the companion CD to The Passion of the Christ. (You can hear a sample at CBD.) Not surprisingly, it all fits into the plot line of what McCormick calls "a 30-year conversation about God" with Bono, orchestrated with deft humor by Somebody who moves in mysterious ways.
