Bono's "Electrical Storm"?

[wildhoney22]

I read that it was reported that one of the songs the boys are working on for the new album is called "Electrical Storm"

Hmmm.... wonder what the Electrical Storm is.....

I heard that was only one song, and I saw someone write that it might have something to do with the terrible storm in Minnesota the day of that concert when their plane was sent to Fargo, ND.

I think it might be a reference to the energy generated by the Elevation Tour! Bono said he wanted to record right away to harness it while the power is still there, they were so highly charged coming off the tour, and he wanted to capture that.

Congrats Wildhoney22, now mine is the only thread without a response. *sniff*

In that Gear article, Bono is asked if NY is an autobiographical song. He said that most people think it is, but it isn't. He said if he had had a midlife crisis at all, HIS happened when he was 27. He says, " I have electrical storms of a different kind now."
Also, he said (in regard to changing the lyrics to NY after Sept. 11th), "It felt right. The electrical storms people have in their heads on a daily basis really mean very little when you're up against terrorism." So, our Bono has been working on this idea for awhile now as this interview was done days after the MSG shows.

Thanks for posting this! I hadn't read that. Interesting.
