Does anyone know the name of the song that U2 walked on stage to at the Manchester 1 gig?

been trying to hunt for it for a while and heard it on the radio yesterday, but they didnt name it!

cheers!

It should be Arcade Fire - Wake Up. Check out their album, it's pretty good

well done my man - thats the puppy.

Awesome tune - had to keep listening to it on my manchester bootleg. Good tune with people going wild awesome opening tune!

At first I wasnt sure if it was a U2 song but unreleased. Has some U2 vibes in there and i think the singer sounds a little like Bono.

cheers again!

They are a great live act too!

The BBC are using Wake up on a TV trail at the moment as well.
