    I came here for the fight
    I’m front row in Las Vegas
    And there’s a big one on tonight

    Opening song at the Sphere then?
    I say closing song at all 25 Sphere shows with Larry Mullen Jnr on drums. Makes total sense. Larry is only well enough to drum on one song a night to build his endurance back up for the next album and tour. If he is fully healthy than he didn't play Vegas because he didn't want to play Vegas.

    I’d still put my money on zoo station. I could see this being the third song of the set or the last song of the main set before encores. I truly believe we’re gonna get zoo station and the fly as our openers

    Come all you angels forgetting to fly
    Come all who feel we’re not on our own
    All UFOs come on your way home

    Alone, that’s no way to be caring on
    Come on, we’re betting on a future that’s long
    Gone, love song (?)
    You just have to be right one more time
    Then you’re wrong

    Atomic City
    Atomic
    Atomic City
    Atomic

    I’m free
    Where you are is where I’ll be
    I’m free
    So unexpectedly

    Come all who serve above and below
    Come all believers and all who don’t know
    Come quick, come soon, comme ci, comme ça
    Then you dive into your eyes and blah blah blah

    Guitars, she pulls the strings etc.
    Sinatra swings, a choir sings
    Love is god and god is love
    And if your dreams don’t scare you they’re not big enough

    Atomic City
    Atomic
    Atomic City
    Atomic Sun for everyone
    For everyone

    Roll the dice
    That’s roulette
    The beat has not stopped
    Speeding yet

    I’m free
    Where you are is where I’ll be
    I’m free
    So unexpectedly
    I’m free
    I see what’s in front of me
    And your freedom is contagious
    What you’ve got I wanna be
    I’m free
    It took me my whole life
    I got the keys to the cages
    I’m ready for bright lights

    I’m free
    I came here for the fight
    I’m front row in Las Vegas
    And there’s a big one on tonight
    Thank you very much sir Much appreciated.

    There’s no was Larry doesn’t play the showers but spends a few months in Vegas anyway to play on one track.
  5. Bloody great to see him with the band though.
  6. It does feel like this song will be played early on in the show
  7. I feel terribly, terribly sorry for this, but damn, feel like celebrating my comeback in style.

  8. I did the same thing the second time the chorus hit lol. It’s definitely on purpose. Bono mentioned Blondie alongside the clash as the motivation for the song
  9. God it’s great to see the whole band back together, and with a new song… there’s still life in the old dogs yet!
  10. Thank god a proper first single. All the crap ones they’ve chosen in recent years. This is a good sign. And there’s no electronic drums or disturbing vocal effects (I’m looking at you SOS pride)
  11. Thanks all! Added the song with Justin's lyrics to the song pages
  12. Is there a digital release yet?
