Fuck knows because I can't hear it either.
Another vote for can't hear it . . . me neither.

I bought it in iTunes and somehow it deleted "summer of love". It wouldn't let me download it again, because I already had it. I searched my entire computer and the file was just gone. So I just illegally downloaded it and stuck in the appropriate place (that's what she said).
Love is bigger being pushed by Interscope in US now apparently??

It’s too late. They do this too often. They release the best (or most single friendly) song second-fourth and the average punter is already sick of them. They wait three years, and if they released the right song, they could get some momentum.
This.
Good luck to those thinking this is going to breathe life into a 6 month-old album.
Counterpoint: nobody has given enough a shit about the album thus far, so something of quality might actually make people notice who otherwise didn't even know they had a new album.
This isntike Boots where people outside of hardcore fans were actually anticipating new U2.

The cynicism some are expressing over this video is making me very WTF.
Yea I don't think people can be tirer of something they don't even care about.
In past years, sure - fuck up the launch and it's over. This launch went over without much fanfare - even the backlash over the NCAA theme didn't really go far. People don't really give a crap about U2 right now, which might be the perfect time to surprise them.
Or, ya know, people could still not care.
I just think they had done a lot over the last three years to build goodwill and respect (JT your, opposing Trump, Bono’s near death experience) that they have spent/wasted on the wrong songs. I think if this had been first, we’d be talking about either the fact they can’t cut through any more, or that they nailed a final chance at relevance. What they did was a cop out - don’t throw the Hail Mary trying to succeed to you don’t find out what people really think
Fair enough, but I’d consider the Grammy appearance to be part of a fairly big launch, and like SNL they featured one of the album’s worst songs.
Again, this.
Better late then never, I guess. My three least favorite tracks on the album have already been released, so there’s nowhere to go but up for me at this point.
