I would be interested because, let's face it, most of us are interested in everything they do. But I'm not sure I would rather have a cover album than anything else. A double live album or a brand-new studio album should be the priority. But if they release a cover album, Hell yes I'll get...

I'm rather fond of the Sydney Zooropa VHS tape I have, and still think it's a superior concert to the Slane Castle and Chicago DVDs, so I would really like it if I could get a DVD version of that Sydney concert. But a good Zoo TV DVD would be a treat for any reason under any circumstances. I...

B.P. Fallons book FARAWAY, SO CLOSE! has some really great off-beat writing and some of the best photos of the band you are sure to find. Flanagan's book and INTO THE HEART: The Story Behind Every U2 song are must-haves. Also look into Eamon Dunphy's UNFORGETTABLE FIRE.

THE SCREWTAPE LETTERS is in fact written by C.S. Lewis, author of THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA, but I have no other information as to what it's about. Two other suggestions: Something by Salmon Rushdie, as well as CALL ME THE BREEZE by Patrick McCabe, in which U2 is mentioned so often they are...

Next thing you know there will be a William Orbit remix of the siren, and a Jackknife Lee remix of the siren, and a Temple Bar Edit of the siren....

That's very true, but I remember early on making a conscious decision not to listen to ONE or BLOODY SUNDAY and many others too much simply because I knew I would get burned out listening to them. I sort of like to "save" certain songs. And then listening to them is a bit like eating...

Nowitski sounds Polish to me. But that is pretty cool. I once heard an ESPN guy say that when he was doing the highlight reel, and I laughed out loud.

Thanks, halup, that's pretty much what I was trying to say. An Cat Gav, have you listened to SHAG TOBACCO? Gavin Friday is fully capable of writing some beautiful songs, in my opinion. And YOU MADE ME THE THIEF OF YOUR HEART really does qualify as one. I really liked the Electric Irish...

I like the last one about Bono not thinking of a title. Wouldn't you think it's about time the band came up with a title? How about the original title of ACHTUNG BABY coming back around, and they call the new one ADAM? That wouldn't be to bad. It would be better than LARRY, anyway.

I had no idea there were so many ONE haters before I came here. I just can't understand how anyone could "hate" this song. Aside from guessing that some fans like to dwell on the obscurity rather than enjoy the best parts of a band's work. I've noticed that kind of thing a lot with Grateful...

There's a "new" mix of GONE one the Best Of: 1990-2000 disc that incorporates some of the better playing that they figured out on tour. It sounds much better and Bono's singing slides along more smoothly. The best moments of the song are the mixing of softer elements with the scratchy guitar...

Here's what I did, which worked quite well: My girlfriend is principally a Dave Matthews fan (nothing wrong with that), but never really expands her horizons musically. At least not much further than Top 40 radio play. So in order to fully ordain her into U2 fandom, I burned her not one but...

In BP Fallon's Tour book, titled U2: Faraway, So Close! he notes that Bono is writing a song called HOLD ME, THRILL ME, KISS ME, KILL ME during the ZOOROPA recording sessions. I don't know if they made a finished version of it at that time and just excluded it from the album, but I do know that...

One sweet-ass word. And that word should be... Honorificabilitudinitatibus (Which appears in Shakespeare's Love's Labour's Lost, and which has been cited as [dubious] evidence that Francis Bacon wrote Shakespeare's plays) For a better explanation, go to shakespeare.about.com/blhonorif.htm
