Bono says Yoko Ono thinks of him as John Lennon's "son."

The 45-year-old U2 frontman tells Rolling Stone magazine, "Yoko came up to me when I was in my twenties, and she put her hand on me and she said, 'You are John's son.' What an amazing compliment!.

Bono says Lennon's solo album John Lennon and the Plastic Ono Band in which he sings about his dead mother Julia helped him cope aged 14 with the sudden death of his own mother. "For me it was like he (Lennon) was talking about the veil lifting off, the scales falling from the eyes. Seeing out the window with a new clarity that love brings you. I remember that feeling."
