Exactly. It's not like Bono is going to say, "This is no Joshua Tree, but it's still pretty good, I think."

Peterrrrr said:My thougths goes to a totaly reworked version of Mercy, with different lyrics. Bono talked well about Mercy before HTDAAB was released.
Wait a second...didn't they kind of do that with 'Sweetest Thing'?Canadiens1160 said:
If U2 reworks Mercy and releases it as a 'new' single, they may as well hang up their hats, don some identical tennis shoes, and wait for the great spaceship behind the next earthbound comet to transport them to a new plane of mediocrity.

djerdap said:I think BigMacphisto was sarcastic.
And not only that, but "biggest hit ever" doesn't necessarily mean "best song ever" either. So even if Bono (and not Eno) had made the bet, we still couldn't accuse him of saying 'Stuck in a Moment' was their best or greatest song.U2girl said:Brian Eno made a bet with Bono Stuck would be their biggest hit ever. (so he, not Bono, thought they had a great song)
Is that what you meant?
Michael Griffiths said:Ah, yes, it's that time again, that time to throw out the "near perfect album" type quote. Similar quotes were uttered before ATYCLB, such as, "The album we've always wanted to make," and "I don't believe this to be our last record, but if it was, that would be okay," and the most infamous, of course, "We have 15 of the best U2 songs ever written, and we're about to narrow them down to our favourite 10 to 12." Ah yes, Bono the master of hype hasn't missed a beat (and hopefully neither has Larry...sorry, couldn't resist ).
