Moment of Surrender - MetalCore version
 
I think we can safely bet that it will be a greatest hits tracklist for that album and I'm sure we'll get at least one of Desire/Angel. To be fair, if they're after a commercial success, that's exactly what they should do. I'm also not sure how radical the arrangements will be.

But, why not then have a second disc of "fan favourites" or more obscure tracks as a bonus disc for the fans?

I mean, we know why, but I think that would make for a much more interesting release.

Ah yes. North Star again. Just as we all suspected.

Will probably tie in to new album release in late 2023/early 2024 (not SOS). Or delay it.



That Transformers version was such syrupy shit.

Live version had some promise.

But I believe the core of the song - or at least the core of it - dates back further than reported (“I don’t wanna wait no more” later became “I can’t wait any longer”) and this soundcheck has haunted me since the late 90s. Epic sounding. Mercy pales in comparison.

it's impossible to truly tell the quality of the song that was in transformers because the clip is so short and in the movie there's talking over it - but it's just another really weird marketing decision by them.

hey - let's give a song for a summer blockbuster to use.... BUT NEVER ACTUALLY RELEASE THE SONG.

And who knows how the song has "transformed" since then. Heyo!
 
I want them to be experimental again.

That ship has sailed and sunk.

Some bongo action on an acoustic Desire is as experimental as we'll get from them.

Promising to hear Bono & Edge doing some movie score work, although its just one project with no release date.
