U2 on TiVo


Put your hand against the screen, TiVo subscribers!

U2 is now the featured artist/sponsor/advertisment on TiVo, and is complete with the "All Because of You" video, band interview and full length iPod commercial.

As for the interview, fans will want to check this out. Focusing primarily on"Vertigo" as a launching point for discussion, the recording procress and influences for "How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb" are mentioned as are bands that U2 love: The Buzzcocks, The Sex Pistols and The Kinks to name a few.

The interview is broken up into three parts. Here is just a taste:

-What is the Mood of Vertigo?
Bono, Edge, Larry and Adam all contribute to this indepth segment. At the end, Bono provides the following insight in "Vertigo" - it is like "electro-shock treatment" and it's about being "in a club, you're having the time of your life, but you want to kill yourself. It's a light little ditty."

-Where is Vertigo?
Bono states that he envisions "Vertigo" as a club where the music is bad, you don't like the people that are there, but you see someone interesting and focus on that to help you through the night.

-Is a hit single important?
Adam states that yes, a hit single is important because it "tells people that you're back." Edge goes on to discuss that U2 haven't always been known as a hit singles-type band, but feels that HTDAAB has some songs with the crossover potential of "Beautiful Day."
 
Wow. :|

How much longer until "Streets" appears in a car commercial?

This is a commercial for U2 music, NOT for TiVo. People who ALREADY HAVE TiVo are the only ones who can see it.

It is NOT the same thing.

My Tivo still has 'The Wedding Date' as the advertisement. . . :(

It has both. It rotates each time you hit the "TiVo" button on your remote. Try it.
