Re: Re: Re: This new best of scares me. Here's why.
Well, one reason why they might not be releasing a 4 cd box set right now could be because they are saving that sort of thing for when they really are winding down their career and are ready to release, as you say, a real definitive best of. From everything they've said in the last while, they aren't done yet. I think the kind of "best of" you're talking about, which I really hope they do release some day, wouldn't come out anytime soon. I seriously think this best of is just meant to bring in new fans and tie in with the release of their autobiography, 30th year as a band, etc.
ponkine said:I'm still wondering if that s*** contract for 3 Best ofs specified, detailed that each best of was going to be just a single CD or not (I'm talking about regular editions, not limited ones with B-sides). If it wasn't, I don't understand why on earth U2 cannot release 4 CD Set Definitive Best Of, including all their singles since 1979 onwards and many other memorable songs. That would be the only one way to make a serious and real DEFINITIVE Best of
If the contract just detailed that they must release a Best of, they could have determined the content of the release, the number of songs and discs on it
