New video?

I'm 99% sure Every Breaking Wave is the next single at least here in the states.

Oversees, they may very well release a different song(not unprecedented) and going by the video clips we have seen(which may represent only part of the full video story) it would seem it relates to either the Troubles or RBW. The Troubles would be the much better single choice not only because it's a better song (my opinion) but it contrasts well with the initial single The Miracle (Rock/slow ballad vs rock/Rock).

So don't quit just yet but you may want to think about typing up your resignation letter

Shhh...don't tell anyone...its a video for the lead single off of Son gs of Ex per ience. Released before tour starts.

 

[wolbersu2]

I don't matter for what song the video is, they'd better release a single/video asap or SOI will disappear from the charts foregood.
EBW should 've been released a few weeks after The Miracle, just like The Fly and Mysterious was.

This. Totally this. Whatever window of opportunity they had to make this album a thing (beyond the novelty of the way it was released) is closing, if not already shut.

Shit's closed son


Shit closed the second Bono's face hit the pavement.

Yeah can you imagine that job?

He must be Smaug among managers now.

I love RBW but that would be an idiotic choice.

And going by their track record, I doubt it gets the nod. This isn't 1993, or even 1997.

Given the imagery and going to Belfast of all places, it is plausible. Looking at the lyrics, RBW also fits with what we've seen of the video.

Why go the obvious single route with EBW (and apparently switching the wave/sea metaphor for ... street violence/car bomb? I'd love to hear that one explained) The popular vote is for Troubles (which, the band claim is not about THE Troubles to begin with).

NoEh I tend to disagree on Raised By Wolves not being a good choice. U2 most likely will never win the mainstream over again no matter what they do. The only category I see them doing well in is with the alternative crowd albeit mildly. Most of the people and musicians I know sit in this category and the popular consensus has been RBW, Reach Around and The Troubles for this album.

These are also the songs that sound the least like their output since 2000 and also stand out differently musically to what is currently out there at the moment. Having that differentiation is where I see their best chance of having any kind of single success. But for the States it appears EBW is the next lock.

However my opinion on the matter is irrelevant other than the pictures do seem to fit the RBW story. Or The Troubles if I have totally misinterpreted its meaning.

It could just be a clip shot for the tour, big screen and all that, and nothing to do with a promo for a single

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

It could be a short film bono was making for his theater class

Thinking outside of the box......I like that idea.

Maybe they're not even making a video. Maybe their just pissing off a Belfast neighborhood because they can.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

Maybe they're putting religious strife into everyone's iPhone

 

[digitize]

Quit what?

Haven't decided yet.

EBW and the picture imagery of the video shoot don't quite match, imho.

EBW and the picture imagery of the video shoot don't quite match, imho.

It could be(complete speculation) that the video reflects on Bono trying to keep his relationship together while all this other stuff is gong on in the world around him. The distractions of fighting/bombings and being in a band that is traveling the world and yet trying to keep their relationship going.

Although there is no mention of any such imagery/situation in that song, so I think I'm pushing the limits in this one but its all I got!!!

This is where you can reach me now

 

[jeevey]

Now that could be a good second single.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

Maybe they're doing a movie where they kill the prime minister of North Korea

 

[Catman]

Maybe he won't be in the video.

Considering he might not be well enough for busking this year, you might be right!

 

[Mrs. Garrison]

Now that could be a good second single.

 

[bobsaget77]

TCB should be the 2nd single.

They already have a video for it though, but yeah, great song

 

[U2freakboy]

Come on guys, judging by the images, this has to be the video for California.
