Bono, The Edge and the rest of U2 dedicated a song to late Soundgarden and Audioslave frontman Chris Cornell, who committed suicide just last week.

Cornell was found dead in his hotel room with an exercise band around his neck. The singer was 52 years old.

U2 recently played a gig in Pasadena, California where they dedicated a rendition of ‘Running To Stand Still’ to Cornell and his family. They also played Soundgarden’s ‘Black Hole Sun’ before taking to the stage.

For the lion that was Chris Cornell, tonight we send a prayer to his lioness, to Vicky,” Bono said as he introduced the song. “And to Christopher and Toni and Lilly, the whole family. A beautiful, sweet soul, Chris Cornell.”
