1. Overall it's not as bad as i expected. Two standout tracks: 2 Hearts and The Fly. 2 song i really dislike: Desire and Peace on Earth. Rest is kind of ok.

    I appreciate their effort and i'm glad they released it, but i don't think i will listen to it very often

    It’s a song Bono and The Edge put together with Jacknife Lee to show Letterman how they develop a song. You see bits and pieces of it in the Disney Plus documentary and this version plays over the final credits. It’s not credited as a new U2 song.


    Also, something that is clearly what is referred to in Ireland as “a bit of craic”. What the F is wrong with people that they’ve got to take everything so seriously. It seems there are plenty of people on this forum that would benefit from a dip in the Forty Foot!
  3. Having listened to bits now , my overwhelming response is to go and grab the original track and put that on. Tnen it suddenly dawned on me, this is genius from U2 and it's management . The whole thing is a stealth advert for the back catalogue. Wonky versions of original classics that will suck people back into buying the back catalogue. Brilliant business move i'll give them that.

    Dangled by their ankles.



  5. You both sound like trolls From opposite ends of the argument. Endless bashing is just as boring as endless praising. Maybe you both can take this to pms and spare us all.

    You're probably right with their pms

    I agree with you. Endless praising is even more annoying in my opinion
  8. i can't seem to find which interview/pod it was, but during the pandemic era i 100% can remember Bono and Edge being interviewed and Bono spontaneously mentioning to Edge "Last Night On Earth... Edge, we should do that one acoustic".

    Now we know that was the same time frame that they were working on their 50ish songs for SOS, so I wonder if that one was ever worked up...
  9. I’m listening on my earbuds and high and loving it even more now. You really feel the intimacy. If you wanna know what it feels like to be in that pub where they are jamming I think this is it!
  10. The album is extremely well produced.

    This album was specially made to listen with headphone or earphone...... Such an exquisite production !!
  12. I think they will take this to Broadway.
