O-kay. I'm going with 11-12 songs, 55 mins at best.
Well, that isn't exactly "very long".
Based on Bono's statement (I know, I know) I'd say either the songs are long or the album has so many songs.

We had this conversation when the beach clips leaked.
The song Bono is talking about is Boots.
I don't remember an exact number, but it was at least 150bpm, because we were trying to find something faster. I Will Follow is in the ballpark.
A quote From the Irish Independent 28th Dec 2008.
Talking to Bono:-
So could he sum up the album in three words for the fans who have yet to get the pleasure? "It's very long," he said with a laugh.
"My favourite song is a song called Moment of Surrender, and the first track is 150 BPM, the fastest song we've ever recorded," he said, beaming with a glint in his eye behind his trademark blue glasses.
Just listened to a sample of a song played at 150 bpm and it was dance music, I now believe the song that starts will be Crazy Tonight? (pop tune?)
NO CHANCE
it's either the punk version of No line on the horizon or first single get on your boots

Exactly how the fuck would you even know?
Beats per minute became common terminology in popular music during the disco era because of its usefulness to DJs, and remain important in dance music.
In this context the beats measured are either crotchets (quarter notes) in the time signature (sometimes called down-beats, although the term is ambiguous), or drum beats (typically bass-drum or another functionally similar synthesized sound), whichever is more frequent. Higher BPM values are therefore achievable by increasing the number of drum beats, without increasing the tempo of the music.
Hip hop typically uses a BPM tempo of 80-100, while house music is faster around 120-135 bpm (from regular house music to UK Garage), and Jungle music generally ranges between 150-190 bpm (with some differences in older compositions). Speedcore and Gabber music exceeds 200 BPM, with an underlying crotchet tempo of around 4000-5288.

"It's very long," he said with a laugh.

"It's very long," he said with a laugh.
Who knows if he's really talking about the album?
