1. Who cares how much the band is spending on promo?! An evil bank is going to donate up to two million dollars! haha

  2. U2 spending on promo: 5 million $
    Bank of America donating to charity: 2 million $ max

    They could just donate those 7 million $ to charity and that's it.

    Then they probably wouldn't get the millions from BoA. And of course they're spending money on promoting a new single and album. They're the biggest band in the world. And that spending is likely to increase sales revenue from a future album. And you never know if they'll have some kind of deal then as well. And you don't know what the band members will do with their parts of that revenue, but I'm guessing some will be donated. This will also give extra exposure to RED, and perhaps increased revenue from that avenue too, which will then go to the Global Fund.

    I think you fail to see the big picture.

    Not confirmed but a journalist who visited them at their studio (I think it was Electric Lady Studios) included Invisible on his review of the album so I assume it's included.
  5. Rumors are that Invisible is actually a cover. Hear the original here:
