Bonos seems to be in good shape

Can we cut the creepy stalker girl out of the first clip?

We say, as we gratefully salivate over her stalkerish recording, telling ourselves it's about damn time the California fans got their act together and got us something worth listening to.

I'm surprised that the band didn't break out the first single from Donkey Punch.

Surprised? I'm downright dissappointed!

IWL was also performed.

 

[The_acrobat]

IWL was also performed.

Is that supposed to be IWF, as in I will follow? I can't think of what IWL would be?

 

[digitize]

And so it begins.

 

[dabiggestu2fan]

No iwl is a song from donkey punch called I want love

 

[ahittle]

So I guess this commercial "concert" audience was made up of extras? I bet that is going to be one good-looking U2 audience.

The least I would expect to hear at a fundraiser gala is new, for now unreleased, material. I wasn't expecting Vertigo, though.

I really think they are going to show up at the Golden Globes tonight - at least Bono & The Edge.

Oops, yes of course, that's supposed to be I Will Follow!

 

[last unicorn]

IWL was also performed.

What song is that ?

Apparently, I will follow was also played:

the 1:53 "hangar" clip....at the end it sounds like he is singing "every breaking wave"....really bad audio but you can faintly hear a big country like guitar part in there

 

[digitize]

Bono sounds pretty great.

'INVISIBLE' - for (RED).
There's been some online buzz this week about what the band have been up to in LA. Here's the scoop. It's all about a new song called 'Invisible', a track the band will be releasing as part of an initiative with (RED) to support the fight against AIDS. Everybody's really excited about the song and the band have been shooting the video in LA. That's all we can say for now... we'll keep you posted!

U2.com should get around to reporting that in mid-April.

Also, seems weird that a Super Bowl commercial would also be promoting a charity. Like isn't that trying to do too many things if New U2+Beats Music+(RED)?

 

[corianderstem]

Nah, I don't think that's weird.

 

[purpleoscar]

Bono sounds pretty great.

That's because his voice is rested. As soon as they go on an extended tour it will get patchy (because he's human). Look how good he sounded in the 360 North American tour after the back surgery layoff. Their promo tours sound great:

U2 Breathe Live in London at Jonathan Ross Show - YouTube

Vs.​

U2 Breathe Live From The RoseBowl - YouTube

And I'm sure that it's easier to play smaller venues technically than big ones. The sound is shitter in large venues and you have to push it more.

 

[The Slow Loris]

It's called diversion. U2 want to make the announcement for the new album during the Super Bowl, not now. By attaching this song to RED, as opposed to the new album, they can save the announcement until the actual Super Bowl, even if this song is also the lead single of the new album. They are killing two birds with one stone, and also creating confusion (and buzz) in the process. It's brilliant, actually.

u2.com has the story now too.. ha.. I wonder if that's been the plan all along, or only because of the leaks

WTF? It's not going to be on the new album?

 

[lazarus]

Nah, I don't think that's weird.

If you're selling three things in one ad, I think it's a bit of an overload. Especially considering how many BIG messages are being thrown at the viewer during the Super Bowl commercials.

How can it be expected for viewers to embrace a new music streaming service, new U2 music, and a charity organization.

I dunno.

 

[Registered Dude]

anyone else find that U2's official communication channels have improved (or at least changed) since Oseary came aboard?

Maybe... it is weird that they'd be doing another one off single, like Ordinary Love, without anything being attached to the new album which is clearly coming.
