It's pretty incredible the total lack of impact those two singles had. In 1997 Holy Joe was on the weekly alt rock countdown show for weeks and was in rotation. That was a damn b-side! If someone had told me that in 2013/14 new U2 singles, the first in several years, would be roundly ignored outside of the awards awarders I'd have said they're fucking crazy. That's kind of what I mean when I say their stock is low and they're going to have to fight for attention: they released two songs in the void of winter, so what's going to happen to them if they go up against albums that will get a lot of press like Taylor Swift, Aphex Twin, or Bob Dylan? It's the complete basement tapes, people! Think Mojo, Q, or RS won't be filling every page with stuff about that one?
