U2 fundamentally would never do this. Never, not ever. But this is just my idea of something I think could work out very well if they did try it. I think the fans would probably like it, at the very least. Maybe I am completely wrong, though.
But what if U2 released an album that had two discs to it. Not a double album, per se, but just two discs. 16 songs, for instance, which could easily fit onto one cd.
But what if one disc were 11 songs of really good flowing atmospheric experimentation? Without ANY singles? And then the other disc, which would have 5 songs on it, would be the singles. And it's only sold as a package album (or the singles each individually as they're released). So you couldn't JUST buy the 5 song singles disc or JUST the 11-flowing songs.
I like the idea of U2's music flowing a lot--but a lot of times singles don't flow with a whole idea so well unless the whole album is singles. That's my idea of getting the flow and the singles both.
