Ok I've just realised what they are trying to do here. It hit me while watching the new Disney doc they did with Letterman. This is Bono and The Edges take on "U2 do Ed Sheeran" to get back to the top of the Pop Charts. In that way it makes absolute sense and looking at the album charts its...

Just goes to show how terrible music is and has been for the past 20 years. Dismal.

When you have run out of creative ideas then the answer is not to go back and see if you can destroy your back catalogue. Boring versions that start the same way, Edge strumming an acoustic guitar, that go nowhere. Amazing to think this is the same band that gave us Achtung Baby, Zooropa and...

Certainly makes me depressed when listening to it.

2 word review. Utter shit.

Definetly more shit. OK there's a downward trend from 2000 onwards and HTDAB was a mediocre effort by their earlier standards but even that's a good listen compared to the crap they're coming out with now. This is a new low along with that crap they released for euro 2020. Its hard to believe a...

U2 really are shit now aren't they. Not satisfied at trashing everything with their last 2 albums then that euro 2020 crap they've now plummeted to new depths of crapness with this rubbish. Just stop now please cos you are just destroying your legacy even further. To think this band made great...

I think u2 could have easily done without the last 2 bland albums. Full of forgettable songs similar to what Coldplay have been releasing since the Viva la vida album. SOI and SOE and the release format of SOI damaged U2s legacy without doubt.

I'm beginning to think bono was right when he said before they released SOI, does anyone need another U2 album. With the mediocre last 2 albums and this utter crap effort I would suggest we really don't need another U2 album.

This song sounds like a euro vision song contest entry. It's garbage.

I kind of agree with the pitchfork review. The album's moderate at best. A 5.3 is about right.

Edge is virtually asleep on this album and that for a Rock Band is not a good thing.

I agree.....Love is bigger sounds more like a Killers song than Coldplay.

I like the first couple of minutes of this track but it seems to lose its way. The overuse of the "you are rock and roll" line towards the end makes me want to press the skip button. Missed opportunity, could have been great but I think they ran out of ideas half way through this track.

Noel Gallagher thinks this is one of the best songs U2 has ever done? He really is a forking idiot! Can't help but think he was taking the piss!

"The songs feel scattergun, with umpteen producers and disparate guests, from Kendrick Lamar (flavour of the month) to the Haim sisters (flavour of last month) and Lady Gaga (flavour of last decade). In the middle of the first track, Bono’s voice is suddenly put through some device that makes...

Why the hell have U2 re-released another mix of Beautiful Day?

Song is bland but its better than that utter shite "blackout". That is one of the worse U2 songs I've ever heard as bad as that Joey Ramone rubbish from the last album.

Regardless of the 2 night sham, the setlists are fairly dull. The only saving grace is that they still believe in playing their new songs and haven't entirely gone down the Rolling Stones greatest hits route. But playing Pride, Streets, wowy, BD and still haven't found for the umpteenth tour is...

I pretty much agree. EBW acoustic is average at best. The way Bono sings the 'baby every dog...' bit makes me cringe on the acoustic version and the bridge sounds forced. I like the full band album version. The live versions of Volcano and California were weak, although at least they were full...

I would be interested in hearing the Danger Mouse album which was to be released in April that was scrapped which they mentioned in the Rolling Stone interview.

Normally the music guest on Graham Norton has about 2 minutes of chat at the end of their performance. So it'll be interesting to see if U2 are any different. Robert Duvall, Downey jnr and Fry are the guests. Get ready for the "oh we're all massive u2 fans" back slapping from the other guests...

Adams concert choice was the best and unexpected. Jimi Hendrix and The Who at isle of Wight 1970. Top choice Mr Clayton.

Anyone mentioned that this is set to be U2's lowest new album chart position since before War. Set to go in at 4 apparently.
