On the song “Honest”, Bono is heard at the start of the song saying a very short piece:

The other one is of course is outing yourself I think be the first to out yourself I always think There’s no end to the hypocrisy of the human heart.

The song continues with the Chainsmokers singing “Honest”, and there is no further participation by Bono on the track. Nor is Bono mentioned in the credits for the track itself, nor is he listed on the list of featuring artists on the track listing for the album. He is however thanked in the “thank yous” at the end of the liner notes for the album.
