They better not have new songs on the Best Of and include those songs on the new album too, that's just lame. Like having TGBHF on the UK version of ATYCLB.
 
Just happen to be on right now. lmao. People seem to be very interested when I post, for some reason. I dunno...? Just gotta get my daily fix.

Well it didn't really fit the flow of the album or the theme imo, I doubt it either gained or lost fans though.

I saw that news clip too, they said a Limited Edition B-Sides will be released with it and a single will be released in October one month before the album.
 
Nice feckin' sig, Johnny. It almost takes up more room than all of the posts combined.

Whew, I was worried that I was the only one who found it strange.
 
According to MuchMoreMusic....

* The album is coming out this November.
* It is called 'The Best of 1990-2000,' so the debate of whether or not ATYCLB songs will be included is still up in the air
* There will be TWO new U2 songs included on the record from their current sessions!!!!

"You gotta love living, baby, 'cause dyin's a pain in the ass."-- Frank Sinatra

Adam: Look guys, I got a Springfield spoon for my spoon collection.
Edge: Oh boy, here we go...
Bono: Wow, how many is that now Adam?
Adam: Nine. If I didn't have my spoons, I'd go insane.
Bono: Can I see it?
*adam gives bono the spoon, bono throws it away*
Adam: My spoon!

I always hate titles like "best of" and "greatest hits." Well, actually, "greatest hits" makes more sense, but "best of..." I mean, just because it was a single doesn't mean it was their BEST, you know?

Somehow i hate the idea of new songs on the Best Of...its a bit of a Celine Dion or Sting type thing to do. Id like to see a B Side/Demo re-released or something unreleased from past sessions. Totally new material detracts from a Best Of's standing as a record of a band's career. And if it does include material from the now, then I think it really needs to include stuff from atyclb, which kinda puts the band in a corner should they decide to release a best of the present decade!

I don't see what the big deal is, a lot of people use lyrics in their signatures. I love U2 y'all, and Zooropa has a some great lyrics.
