According to atu2.com, here are some contenders. I have a feeling only 3 or so of these will actually appear on the album in anycase. Nonetheless, U2 have been recording now for so long, I still feel this album could have the most songs on any U2 studio album to date. Here are 13 songs we know...

'In A Little While' Everytime it comes on when I'm around other people, everyone says they love it. It's the song they all want to turn up, the song that grabs their attention. Yes, 'Beautiful Day' may be the commercial hit off the album, and yes, I may prefer 'Kite' on a personal level, as...

Brian Eno's recent comment that the new song, 'Moment of Surrender' is "the best thing" he's ever done with U2 got me thinking of which U2 songs are truly "the best" with Eno (not necessarily "favourite, but "best"), and I think they would make a great album! Here's my list... Feel free to make...

Just realized this could be U2's most diverse album, given the comments about how they've recorded it. Apparently only a few songs were written in Morocco, yet they have many other songs written over the past few years that could also make the album. My guess is a fusion type of album, perhaps...

I hadn't heard this in a long while, and just found it on youtube... Once the song takes off, it becomes a pure classic. Imagine if they actually recorded this and put it on their next album? The next great U2 song is born. Is it a cover or is it completely original? The melody just sounds too...

Just listening to Achtung Baby for the first time in about 3 months, and getting lost in the sounds of 'So Cruel'. There's this violin that beckons, if not implores our molecules to vibrate to a higher order. It's a high society without any pretense. There's a sort of warm sophistication about...

This just in: A Fall Release? Could U2 Be Cleaning Up Their Yard For Next Winter? U2 to release full length LP next fall. No word as to the official title, but according to these domain names, perhaps herein lies some clues: www.beachclippings.com...

I was thinking of some of the songs Bono (or Edge) have written that I wish U2 would have recorded, and I thought of a song called 'Conversations on a Barstool'. It's probably the best thing Bono and Edge have ever come up with that they haven't actually recorded themselves (it could even be as...

Found this great site with a bunch of cool articles from U2's early days. Articles seem to be coming from something called U2 Magazine: http://www.richard.hare.dsl.pipex.com/u2info10.html Here's just one of the great interviews/articles: Bono on the New Album The new album is likely to make...

Just downloaded the unreleased digitial songs, and 'Smile' is by far the best of the lot I'm thinking. 'Levitate' is good, too, but not classic like 'Smile'. This song comes to you from a far, sounding sort of flirtatious, not revealing itself at first, a bit coy, and then.... Bamb. It hits...

Just bought this DVD set, and game 2 has to be the best hockey game I've ever seen. Gretzky has scored 5 goals in a game a few times, and even though in game 2 he doesn't score one goal, Gretzky calls it the best game he ever played. Instead, he had 5 assists. Lemieux had 3 goals, all assisted...

The best modern interview I've ever read with Bono came out in Hotpress just before the release of HTDAAB. Surprising how fitting it still is. A great read, very thought provoking, and touches on just about every subject you might want to know about the current U2 mindset... Should answer a few...

Please forgive me if this has been discussed to death already, but I have been too busy to check this site the last few months. I know the performance of 'Bad' is supposed to be legendary...I just wish it didn't come with so many other performances! Can anyone tell me their thoughts on the DVD...

I am new to this forum (sort of....well, new again), and I've noticed many people agonizing over the fact that U2 just aren't the same band they were, say, 15 years ago. Some people seem quite depressed over recent output, style, Bono's hair, Bono's weight, U2's recording loacations, U2's...

Bono said around the time of HTDAAB's release that they have been interested recently in making relevant music that can fit into the fabric of the "folk" music of popular culture - ie, The Beatles, The Stones, and so forth. Music that resonates to the extent of becoming part of the public...

I just stumbled upon it in a little hole in the ground record store. It is supposed to have 3 or 4 full concert footages taken from the Rattle and Hum filming....all never seen before. Has anyone seen it, and if so, do you recommend it? What does it really consist of? It's about $50, so just...

I remember about ten years ago a CD in the U2 section at one of the local record shops that simply said, "Bono Speaks in Philadelphia". It looked to be from around 1987, if I remember. This was a time when Bono very rarely did interviews (how times have changed!). I didn't ever buy it, but now...

For all the crying, for the criticizing, some of it warrented, some of it not, but none of it all together valid in the grand scheme of things..... The kind of power U2 wields right now....when they are up on stage and moving individuals into a collectivity, creating a mass bliss, getting...

...will be breathtaking. Up there with 'Running To Stand Still' into 'Streets'. You heard it here first. :ohmy:

This is what I've done...anyone try this? It works brilliantly... 1. Vertigo 2. Miracle Drug 3. Sometimes... 4. Love and Peace... 5. City of Blinding Lights 6. All Because of You 7. Fast Cars 8. A Man And A woman 9. Crumbs From Your Table 10. One Step Closer 11. Original of the Species 12...

'One Step Closer' is pure genius and the best song on the album. 'Crumbs For Your Table' is the second best and is emerging as a U2 classic. And reviews called this a b-side???? Pefect tone, beautiful melody, guitar that moves in myserious ways throughout. "And you speak, of signs and...

Warning: This does not describe all democrats and republicans...so please don't take offence! I couldn't attach the file I received on email (too big), but found a website that has it. Interesting stuff.... http://chrisevans3d.com/files/iq.htm

My review of the 3 out of 10 review I normally don't do this, as I believe matters of opinion should be left to that - opinion - but there are just too many glaring holes in this to turn a blind eye. Let's analyze his summary: I am currently very disappointed by this album. I did expect...
