I will only say that my 16 yo daughter loves this song. Now, it's important to note that she's not a big U2 fan. She listens to mostly Arctic Monkeys, Tyler the Creator, Kid Cudi, Bad Bunny, etc. But she can't get enough of this song. Calls it her jam. Went to see the Sphere show and she liked...

I thought given Stay's meaning, the fact that it was written on the ZooTV tour, and its connection to Sinatra, it might fit in well thematically. I suspect we'll here it in the '24 shows, if not sooner.

After the new year, I hope U2 opens the setlist more. I mean where is it in the rock and roll rulebook that says you must play every song from the "anniversary" album? They don't do that even when touring a new album. Yes, AB is probably their best and most ground-breaking album, but those...

That's helpful, thank you!

I have one GA floor ticket for Saturday, Oct. 14. Face. Message if interested. Also, for those who've been to the show, is it worth it to do the morning wrist band thing? In videos it looks like there's plenty of open space on the floor. I guess I'd prefer to be next to the stage, but I'm just...

Cute, fun movie saw with my kids on Xmas Eve. Song is a perfect transition to credits and fits well with the story. This isn't Please or Acrobat, but it's a beautifully simple song and a great fit for the story. The Haven't Found duet between Clay and Ash is the show stealer tho. Several in...

It's shocking that a band 40 years on is still writing stuff like this. Great spirit, meaning. Lovely chanting girl vocals at the beginning and end that, to me anyway, sound a little more African than Indian. Really like the "In a Little While" acoustic guitar throughout, even some Kygo-like...

Now is the time for the song to be featured in a movie, a TV series or a commercial (god forbid). Something like that would send it through the stratosphere. Without it, the song will dent the charts and then bounce back into oblivion.

My goodness. Just looking at that top 30 chart...of the 30 songs listed, I've heard 2. Feel it Still, which I remember listing to LAST summer...and U2's song. I want U2 to do well on the charts, only because I know it's important to them, but my God, radio is just so irrelevant to most people's...

It's #1 https://www.rte.ie/entertainment/2018/0720/980106-its-a-beautiful-day-u2-top-billboard-dance-club-chart/

Thematically, 13 is the perfect closer. And personally I think it's one of the most beautiful closers I've seen them do. No, it's not rousing, but that's not unusual for u2: 40, Love is Blindness...I guess I'm one of the fans who prefers to walk out of the arena with tears rolling down my cheeks...

My 11 year old twins went to their very first concert on Saturday night in Omaha. They were center walkway, up against the rail, and when the screen lifted and Bono was literally RIGHT in front of them, they nearly pissed themselves. Bad daddy forgot the earplugs, so I'd recommend that. But...

Me too. I was sick of WOWY after the JT tour. Everyone loves Beautiful Day but I've never been a fan of that song, especially live. I just want Streets back. I've been to 16 shows and it's the one song where you look around at all the first-timers and see that "Holy fuck that was awesome"...

Wow, you're right. Thanks!

So my kids are now old enough to take to a U2 show. Was so excited for this tour to come to Denver, so my kids could always say that their very first concert was U2! But it appears we're getting shut out of this one. Now I think I can't miss this tour (I think it might be their last) and I'm...

That's what bugs me though. Since I've been pitching this band to my friends for 35 years, I always experience their music, live and on record, through the eyes and ears and hearts of the non-believers. And if you could show them ONE live song to convince them of U2's greatness, I think 90% of...

Really, REALLY surprised that Denver is not part of this or the last tour. Was it something we said?

:applaud::applaud::applaud:

No, they aren't, but the problem isn't their age as much as it is the Top 20. I just pulled up the Billboard top 20. I've heard of half of the artists. The only song I've heard is the Portugal. The Man song, which is fantastic by the way. But who listens to that stuff? Where do you even hear...

Hmmm...I've never played this before, but I sorta get it. Give the teams you like the biggest number, but bump those teams you think might play 4 games? I'll play... 12. Vikings 11. Pats 10. Saints 9. Rams 8. Steelers 7. Falcons 6. Jags 5. Chiefs 4. Panthers 3. Bills 2. Titans 1. Eagles...

#1? In terms of top to bottom well-crafted, well-produced collection of songs, SOE is the best album U2 have ever done. It is their tightest album ever. That said, what brought most of us to U2, I suspect, (and I've been a fan since I first saw those pale, rosy-cheeked kids about my age...

He could have, but he would not have. Bono has spent the last 20 years trying to dismiss the notion that commercial success is a bad thing. What is a bad thing in his mind (I'd say) is cool over honesty, sugar over substance. The word "girly" might be an unfortunate way to describe that, but...

Milking it? Good God, people. You do realize he did not bring this up, right? Did Bono know that the question would be asked? Of course, but he's not going to refuse a cover interview. I agree with Bono here. Being specific about this would land this story all over the tabloids, and require...

I'd agree that music had gotten girly. And I don't think that statement is at all about singers with vaginas. So maybe cool the affected rage and indignation. He could've said "twee" and then every shy, bald Belle and Sebastian fan would take up arms in revolution.
