U2 remembers Manchester victims and leads the whole audience at "Jimmy Kimmel Live" in a gospel rendition of their popular song, "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For."

Since the Dublin natives are just an hour plane ride away from Manchester, England, Kimmel decided to ask U2 about the recent terror attack that took place after an Ariana Grande concert in a Manchester Arena.

"They hate music. They hate women. They even hate little girls," frontman Bono said in response. "They hate everything that we love. And the worst of humanity was on view in Manchester ... But so was the best, as people took perfect strangers into their houses and queued up for blood banks. Manchester has an undefeatable spirit, I can assure you."

"We want to play for you now a gospel song with a restless spirit," Bono introduced the song, which included an accompaniment of a choir comprised of different audience members planted throughout the studio.
