Their have been many, many instances where U2 songs have been leaked. Just to mention the recent ones...
10 of the 30 second samples from ATYCLB were "accidentally" left on U2.com for some poor unsuspecting person to hack into. Later, ATYCLB was leaked by someone who lived in Iceland, if I remember correctly, (which sounded a little odd to me, but whatever), and now we have Bono giving a DJ, of all people, the "demo" version of 'Electrical Storm'??? A DJ who just happens to work for BBC Radio 1. Hmmm...I'm thinking what better way to generate a little hype than to get a DJ to play the new single before its release? Oh, but it was just a "gift," of course! Haha. Right. If they do plan them -- or "set them up" -- I must say, I do like U2's style.
Questions, comments, cries of outrage all welcome...
