1. Topic for track 7 of Songs Of Experience.

    Bono mentioned that this song, and “Summer of Love” both reference the refugee crisis in Europe saying, “Two songs that have a similar theme, about people running for their lives on the same Mediterranean that we’re running through the shallows. “Summer of Love” is achingly beautiful and empty. It could be a big song and it’s tiny. These are real tunes.”

    Lyric:
    I am made of all that I'm afraid of
    Most afraid of losing you
    Hell's the season
    You're the reason that I even dreamt of getting through

    I, I can feel your body shakin'
    I, I will meet you where the waves are breakin'
    Baby it's a Red Flag Day
    Baby let's get in the water
    Taken out by a wave
    Where we've never been before
    Baby it's a Red Flag Day
    Baby let's go a bit further
    Paradise is a place
    You can't see when it's yours

    Red Flag Day
    Red Flag Day

    Sun comes stealin'
    Oceanic feeling'
    Sky will soon be clear
    Today we can't afford to be afraid of what we fear

    I, I can feel your body shakin'
    I, I will meet you where the waves are breakin'
    Baby it's a Red Flag Day
    Baby let's get in the water
    Taken out by a wave
    Where we've never been before
    Baby it's a Red Flag Day
    Baby let's go a bit further
    Paradise is a place
    You can't see when it's yours

    Red Flag Day
    Baby it's a Red Flag Day
    Red Flag Day

    Not even news today
    So many lost in the sea last night
    One word that the sea can’t say
    Is no, no, no, no

    Baby it's a Red Flag Day
    Red Flag Day
    Baby it's a Red Flag Day
    Baby let's get in the water
  2. The coolest name of SOE's tracks.

    I've been waiting for this track for two years now, Hoping to be a descendant of Bullet, Please, Fez, Cedarwood and Wolves.
    Seriously afraid of being disappointed.
  3. Bono: It's a song about Ali...
    Just kidding.
  4. Plot twist, the whole album is about Ali.
  5. As happened For the previous album.GIVEN For free on any iphone ( even if somebody in the world didn't want it ) i'd rather wait till the very day of the issue.i personally don't want to hear anything before That day.
    Ok For Blackout and Best thing about me.followed by official videos.little things played live in Rome.the rest Will be a surprise.my personal xmas gift.IMO
  6. If today's tracklisting is to be believed, this follows right after Summer of Love. Do you think there will be some sort of segue between them, considering they're meant to cover the same topic? Would be cool if there is, I'm always a sucker for that.
  7. Yes please. Kick-ass. Can't wait to turn this one up in the car.
  8. Highlight for me after first listen. Can’t wait to singalong.
  9. Great vocals by B. Reminds of me of California
  10. Yep. Best song I've heard so far from SOE. Love it.
  11. Loving the breakdown on this song, Adam's bassline underpins beautifully on this section.

    This is like an experienced version of a WAR song. Edge's backing vox are like his on seconds.
  12. This song, holy crap.

    So summery.
