They'll probably milk [their anniversary] for a whole month.
but before you're rightfully exiled again, please post that single artwork, looks interesting
Uh, how did you get that?
You're gonna have to do better than that, Joaclaudiobh. How about giving us some lyrics, and a description of the song? opcorn:

I don't see "heart" anywhere in there. You're lying.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this the user who has posted fake info on numerous occasions and was called out for it?
EDIT: just saw above posts, glad I'm not the only one who spotted this idiot again

It's in the chorus. Song is called "The Heart (Of Joey Ramone)"

Amazing. You can't edit titles on iTunes, so this has to be real.

Yeah but I finally got my 2013 U2.com subscription gift.
I never understood this gimmick. Were we supposed to use them? #kindasmall

Why do people here keep referring to BD in that way? While it certainly got its fair share of airplay in Germany (and I suspect Europe) I don't think the general public remembers this song very much. They remember Streets, One, SBS. Not sure BD comes to mind. But maybe that's different in the US due to 9/11, the U2 gigs right after etc?!Not the bees!
Yeah, they really have to let the music do the talking for them. As you mention, they can get away from the Apple fiasco, and get away from the impression that they're a big, established monolithic band that has to make a big monolithic statement with every release (which is probably off-putting to a lot of youngsters, hipsters and others, but also presents the band with the colossal burden of living up to their 40 year reputation, and 5 year long silences between albums).
And ultimately, at the end of the day, all that matters is the music. If the single isn't strong enough and they do amazing publicity, it still won't be a hit. If the single is great and people enjoy it, and they have little or shit publicity, it will still likely be a hit.
It makes perfect sense for them to do something subdued this time round. Just play the song on the radio, play the remix in clubs, get it circulated in a way where it's saying "here's this cool new song", not "HERE'S THE NEW U2 SINGLE!!!".
None of this uploading to everyone's Apple accounts instantly, making a big deal about it being the biggest audience to ever receive an album.
I doubt anyone in the general public remembers the manner in which beautiful day was released. They just remember the song. Whereas, i bet a lot of the same people couldn't name a song off of SoI, but they could tell you how it was released (and how much they hated it).
I think being humble and staying away from grand statements is in their interest. And if the music is good enough, that's all they need.

no, Beautiful Day was massive in the US prior to 9/11. It came out pretty much a full year before. It was the perfect pop-rock song for 2000 and 2001 and it's one of U2's finest moments.
Both Beautiful Day and Vertigo have a permanent stamp on U2's legacy when it comes to the largest hits.
