But I can't find a solid reason for this conclusion. The single has actually been sold since January. There is absolutely no word on postponing the album.
There are a lot of glaring errors here: your analysis that there are "clear signs that things didn't go so well in the U2 camp" is based on very old news that isn't really related to the final product (ditching Rubin, delaying the November release).
And Zero promotion?? Maybe you haven't read the 79 listening party reviews featured in media from all over the world? The RS spread and the huge Q feature?

You're wrong here. The single has been doing well in the digital markets.

The panick and doom and gloom on this board is amazing. I have the impression people are waiting for negative stuff to happen so they have something to complain. There will be no album delay. Things like that happen all the time. We don't know what's going on behind the scenes. Stop panicking, please.
Most music fans give a shit about single releases, they want an album.
There will be a number of live performances in the next week, that's enough promotion and the right one.

I can't find any reason for that. If they had delayed the CD single because of the album they'd have been postponed the album as well.

I agree. There is no reason to despair. CD singles unfortunately no longer matter too much in the recording industry. It's just part of the U2 tradition to keep marketing it. Maybe they decided to change the tracklisting due it has a song that will be already on the album.

I agree with LU here.
And even, purely hypotethical speaking, if there was a delay. So what? Is it that bad to just wait another two weeks? What's two weeks on the 4+ years we've been waiting?

I think there is nothing to worry about. The only thing U2 should have done was release the video of the single by now and probably should have released the video almost immediately after the radio single release. The video just adds that something special to the song IMO.

To link a CD single delay with U2 unhappiness with the whole album is a bit too much, imho.

If I have to wait another 6 months to hear these damn songs I'm going to sell my car, condo, and most of my possessions and become a Coldplay tour roadie!

Take it easy!
The album will be out in less than 30 days.
Press have already heard it. And lots of. So no reason to cancell it.

Hmmm....wonder which two songs.
It would most likely be the first two singles, right?

That's cool. I hope it's two new songs as well, and not just GOYB.
I love hearing live songs before I've even heard the album version.

No way.
Seriously, since U2 have been rehearsing in Hannover Quay, isn't it possible for some fans to get some audio clips so we know what they will be playing?

I was talking to a mate who overheard Steve Matthews say to a fellow employee that they would play Pride and One.

But Regine Moylett reckons it's going to be Red Light!

you should get some sleep boy. It is not healthy to be tired around this time a day at your age
I think they will play GOYB and Vertigo
What I do not get is this reaction by an incredibly predictable group of people who state that a first single is not important. The first single is the key to bring in newer fans.
The normal U2fan will buy the recrod nomatter what but a newbe listener who isnt into the first single isnt likely to buy the record. It doents matter though. The album will rule and GOYB will be the worst song on the record by far.
