I'm gonna pistol whip him the next time he says "America's not a country, it's an idea." Which will be tonight in KC.

I mean, American audiences love a nice dose of patriotism. But Bono takes it to a downright cringeworthy level. It's like you could hear 45,000 people just thinking "BUT YOU'RE NOT EVEN AN AMERICAN!!!"
Maybe next tour I'll go see him in Canada so I don't have to listen to that shit. Bono had always gone off on tangents at his shows... hence the Simpsons joke "oh, here we go...". It got really bad during the Vertigo tour, then seemed to taper off for awhile. But the other night in Indy he was taking it to Vertigo levels, but with more USA ASS kissing.

Starting a linear, career listen of all the studio albums.

What's also funny is that Larry is actually the only one in the band truly Irish. Bono edge and Adam all have English blood.
Careful with that! It's irrelevant and you're incorrect.

Bono, Edge, and Adam.. filthy mudbloods!

Plus, he says it in basically every interview and has been saying it for years. We get it! [emoji849]

Adam and his parents were all born in England, Edge was born in East London and his parents were Welsh, as far as I'm aware Bono is as Irish as Larry.

It's because the album has been delayed until fall 2018!! YTBTAM is just a one off single now.

I was looking at a family tree of Bono's one time and the person claimed he had a Scottish great-great grandfather or something or other. But obviously, that's still a ways back and 1/16th or less than who he is.
I assume a lot of those people are pretty intermingled anyway. Sean Connery, arguably the most famous Scot of them all, is a quarter Irish via his paternal grandfather.

I wonder if it's just the live version of The Blackout.

Most likely. You have to remember that most outside of the U2 fan base don't even know blackout even exists. So it will be a brand new song to most radio listeners.

Do radio stations have a "better" quality recording of the live version of The Blackout?
Because if not .. rather not play it (the 60k compressed Facebook video version)
Bring on The Blackout studio version ... can't wait to hear it
It's interesting that the official Warner Music YT channel has The Blackout in shitty quality as well:

It would seem strange to release anything else to radio now, when they are only really getting started promoting TBT, especially in US. Let TBT ride for another week or so, then another single perhaps. If TBT is ever gonna do well on US radio it doesn't need to be cannibalised by one of its siblings! Even though I prefer Blackout

I personally think The Best Thing has to be out there until the end of the JT Tour...don't think they would release another song to radio unless the album is available for pre-order. My guess is The Blackout.
My bet is that it's gonna be the Kygo Remix. NRJ is a well known Dance/EDM radio station in France. (The targeted audience is mainly young people under 20 and i can't figure why they would premier a new song of a 40 year old band).

It's maybe just because it's not the official WM channel...
why does the about section then "say" it is official?

ok .. it's just some inofficial channel....whatever ... I found the official WM channel.
If it's not YATBTAM ... then it will be Blackout maybe .. or the Kygo Remix .. yeah .. maybe

Do you think the official channel of Warner would have only 192 subscribers and post some fanmade Ed Sheeran Lyrics video ?

Nothing against you mate, sorry for being sarcastic ! Can't wait to hear the Black Out Studio version on the real Warner Youtube Channel !
Wouldn't U2 not being a Warner Music artist kinda give it away?
