The Fly
A few days ago, I was reading this latest interview to the band. Just as many other interviews and statements over the past 10-15 years, they - specially Bono - mention that feeling and that need of going back to their early years, whether sonically, whether spiritually (even if in the end that's not exactly what it shows up). This time, they even mention having been listening to bands they used to venerate when they started as a band as teens.
And then, it occured to me...
...I remember this and other forums having the Man name as hipothetic album title (or working title) for what became HTDAAB and NLOTH, as some sort of magnetic contraste to the Boy name (and idea).
This may sound really stupid, and 99,9% won't happen, but it's just a thought I'd like to share...
What if the upcoming album, inspired by that early-years-reminiscent aura, was titled The Hype, using it as a reference to their early years and pure state, and as an irony to mediatism/need of relevance?
[...and then if there was a sequel-album - Zooropa-style, it could be called Feedback ]
Just a hallucinatory fan thought I think I should share.
Muy interesante...Usted es muy listo.
