Well, maybe they just wanted to play it a few times live and leave it at that. The band may introduce another new song to us soon. Who knows.

U2 have to get over this self doubt (if that's what it is). I'm not at all convinced by TLTTGYA but it's getting ridiculous now. Just release the album and so be whatever we get. This delaying and anxiety will destroy them eventually.

Whatever...... but you were first to introduce it to us just like BEST THING song. So, thanks anyway.

I like it a lot too but we can't make judgement without hearing the album mix. It's safe to say (assuming they don't rewrite it now) that the lyrics are the same and they are very good.
I imagine they will add several layers of production to the song, which can be good or bad but I think it will make it a lot better.

The middle lift of the song just doesn't sound right or fit. It's like 2 different songs glued together and the guitar solo is Edge by numbers. As a whole song together, it's OK and I quite like it but its nowhere near any of their best stuff and it'll make zero impact with the public if released (not that that's should be an issue anymore).

Of note from Pasadena 2:
- Little Things returned.
- Bono introduced it by saying "SOE would be out if it wasn't for Edge"
- The album cover image was not shown for the first time.

Interesting about the last point. Hm.

so basically Edge is like U2's version of Maynard James Keenan
There was a picture shown at the end, is there another one?

Perhaps now Edge is tinkering with album art as well.

I really like that new song, the recent Santa Clara recording is pretty damn good. I do prefer the final stages of it and really want to hear a recorded version - although I guess as others have pointed out, their record company want this all to be about the remastered JT sets, so they ain't going to be able to release new music until later in the year.
I still think its a strange choice to play in the gigs though and its place in the set-list is weird too although there's probably not much choice given the structure of it. Its great there's new music but the vids i've seen online seem to suggest its going down exactly like I thought it would - lots of standing around chatting while they play it or people listening intently but a bit of a downer in terms of atmosphere and response. Although having said that, sounds like Miss Sarajevo has already killed the wave of energy and the buzz going on.

When did he comment about the album cover? I just watchec a video of Little things and heard the spoken intro where he made the comment about SOE +Edge, but nothing about album cover

Still liking Little Things. I have to say that both Little Things and The Best Thing both left me humming them the next couple days after hearing them. I think they could get some decent play on Contemporary and Adult Alternative radio with these. Just will depend on the way they are released.
Hoping we know more after Kimmel...

I think people just made the assumption that the picture was the album cover, since it was displayed during or after the song. Nothing concrete from the band's mouth yet, unless I missed something.

It stopped being funny a couple weeks ago, unfortunately.
