Since the previous 12 full-length albums are commonly linked together as four distinct trilogies, it seems that the lucky 13 will launch a new period and new trilogy.
So if the whole 'Manhattan' idea is a hoax, what about the previously rumored titles, such as '10 Reasons To Exist'?
We'll know soon enough, I suppose. Fall? Christmas?
OMG Guisssss, Peter Rowan was the kid on the BOY cover. And now he's totally shooting the album cover for MANhattan. It totally fits with the themez!!!111!!oenoeneone!!
Anyone else actually as excited about hearing the new songs as they appear to be about debunking others rumors & theories?
Boyz II Men
You might even say we were pretending to be excited about it.No, we're all extremely pissed that new U2 music is coming.
In any event, I am looking forward to the new album. Anyone else actually as excited about hearing the new songs
U2DMFan posted in the previous thread thatalbum announcementsreports of All That You Can't Leave Behind and Atomic Bomb being wrapped up came on June 30 of 2000 and 2004 -- so we're probably not too far away from something, unless they're planning on going super stealth...but it's U2 so come on now.
The first clip of Beautiful Day was released on U2.com on 31st July 2000. I remember it well, it was my 17th birthday
So if we're looking at a similar timetable - which seems likely on the basis of the above - there is a slim chance we may even get a listen to at least a clip of the new single sometime in the next month.
Fingers crossed, but breath not held.
First clip? As in a sample?
The worldwide radio broadcast premier was August 31st. The day of my daughter's birth. Also, 2 1/2 months before her expected date. A crazy day that worked out brilliantly for me in mysterious ways.

Do you have another condescending question?

That's great to hear - the song must mean a lot to you.
Yes, 31st July was when the first 30 sec clip was released on U2.com

Meanwhile, Lanois tells Rolling Stone that some collaborations are best left in the past.
"Lucky for me, for my health, I'm not doing the new U2 record," he said with a laugh. "They're hard to do. I don't know how to say it. They expect a lot and want a lot and should get a lot. Sometimes it means you gotta sit in the chair for two years, as I've done. I'm glad Danger Mouse is doing it and not me. I'll have a whisky with Danger Mouse in about a year's time and we can tell some old war stories."
I heard on 100.3 The Q (Victoria radio station) that U2's album is out mid-September and one of the tracks features Chris Martin. I know this was a long standing rumor but was something announced recently? They announced it pretty confidently...
What album?
