Rob Esse is transfixed and emotionally impacted by a great U2 song called 'Kite'. This song has a quality that strikes at the core of childhood, adulthood, ageing, regret and relationships between children and their parents. U2 do a great job of tugging at the heart strings with this piece of music.
