Can't believe I listened to a U2 album six times in a row today.
That's awesome.

Was he ever really here?
Were you?
So, I'm normally not at all too lazy to read back but time is a tad short at the moment - what's the consensus in here, if there is one....?
What I am interested in, at this point, are reactions to the delivery method. I have a good friend who is an old school singer/songwriter, who is dead set against illegal downloading (fair), but as I've pointed out to him, many "indie" bands use this as a vehicle to release material...or when you come across live, bootlegged material. I've tried and tried to tell him that most complete show live releases that are on YouTube are on there because the artist is okay with it, and their management hasn't requested that it be removed. So, I'm anxious to hear his reaction to a full-blown rock star band giving away an album's worth of its material.
I kind of ignored Song for Someone the first time or two, but fuck I love it now, I seem to be somewhat alone on that around here though.
I think it's pretty easily the most radio-friendly thing here. That chorus is huge, and in a way reminds me of R.E.M.'s "The One I Love" although it doesn't have as much of a bite as that song does.

EBW is too strong a song to be brought down entirely by it's overdone arrangement, but I hope someday we can hear a circa 2008 recording (or even a version done solely by Danger Mouse).

I'm curious to hear these "accoustic" versions being released in the special edition.
I want the unedited Invisible.
So how much do you reckon Apple paid for this thing?
I'm not.

By the way, what a big moment for Lykke Li. The only other duets to appear in U2 albums are BB King and Johnny Cash. Not bad company.

Some people have told me the album just appeared in their library and they're not even U2 fans. Bono alluded to it in his letter.
Therefore, if the album appeared to everyone with an iTunes account that could be as many as 500 million people.
I wonder if all this self reflecting on their own history means they're winding down.

I was trying to think of anyone they've ever done duets with on album...that's awesome.
