New Song WILL Be A Single---And Downloadable

[Utoo]

One more reason why tacking the new song onto the latest Best Of isn't so terrible....


This is from the Irish News article from a few days ago:



***U2's manager Paul McGuinness is equally as excited about the band's recent recording and reveals that fans may have a pleasant surprise to look forward to.

"We are all thrilled with the new songs and I think that the band are in the best form they have been in for years. Three songs have already been recorded with Rick Rubin and the boys are itching to get back into the studio to get more on tape.

"We head off to Australia to pick up the Vertigo tour again in November so we will be very busy, but look out for a download single before Christmas! I'll say no more now but wait and see."***


That phrasing doesn't make it sound like it'll be an "Album Only" download, either.

I suppose they did kind of need some new material for the upcoming gigs they have. I just hope this single is going to be one of the beachclips!

two threads on the same article

Because it's a pretty key line that, in all the outrage over the Best Of album, everyone seems to have forgotten...just like the other thread has been forgotten, altogether.....and then based part of the argument against the GH decision on the omission.

And because you seem to have taken a shot at every thread of mine in the last week, I just wanted to give you one more.

...and now a 3rd BEST OF RELEASE (2 albums premature)

They should have included the 2 new songs with the Coffee Table Book or with Zoo TV

Then people would just bitch about having to buy a book to hear 2 new songs, or bitch about having to buy an already released concert (again) to just hear 2 new songs.
