Bono to SPIN (December 2001): "So I just started writing down five or six songs, mostly lyrics. I worked on a song about my dad that Noel Gallagher and I had started, called "One Step Closer to Knowing," and I think that's going to be very special. Another one is called "Electrical Storm," and another is called "You Can't Give Your Heart Away," and there's this thing called "A Man's a Man," for a movie called Gangs of New York, which Martin Scorsese is directing. "

My brother just told me he was reading a recent u2 interview where Bono confirmed that he adapted the title of One Step Closer from a conversation about his father that he had had with Noel. He was telling Noel about his father's struggle with his faith and his failing health, and Noel responded that at least he was one step closer to knowing. Great line.

yeah but think that'll all of noel's contribution in the song.... Bono didn't mentioned anything about WRITING it with Noel in this recent interview, just that he helped him with that line... It would be great if the chief had bigger participation in the song, but I really don't think so...
