The 2014 U2 album 'Songs of Innocence' features the track Cedarwood Road inspired by the north Dublin street where Bono grew up. From 1960 to 1982, Bono lived at 10 Cedarwood Road in Dublin 11. Since 1986 the house has been owned by Tom and Kathleen Ryan. With the band in town, Tom Ryan has noticed an escalated interest in his home.

It is not just fans interested in the house, in 2004 Bono revisited the house to film footage in his former bedroom for the 'Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own' music video.
