Maybe this, maybe that... you're completely speculating, whereas I'm using a direct quote from the band.Chizip said:three songs that we know about
maybe after realizing how crappy those 3 songs were they decided to go back and really give a good listen to the rest of their songs and they realized that those werent the best either...
obviously there was a point in time when they thought they were almost, then went back and realized they had more work to do, the two most logical times for this to occur is when they scrapped those three songs and when mr lanois came on board with some fresh ears.
Reggie Thee Dog said:Yeah, I think Chizip is off on this whole thing a bit. I really don't believe the band is scrapping anything. I think they are finishing up vocals on most songs, and structure on a few. If they were scrapping the album, you can bet this album would not see the light of day this year.
Exactly, Chiz. It was because of this very reason that I was very pleased when I heard a while back that the recording of the album had been difficult. It seems they thrive on tension in the studio, as this is when they create their greatest work.Chizip said:welllllll
the song that created the greatest amount of tension in the studio was streets, and imo thats the greatest song of all time
and the album that created the most tension in the studio was achutng, and thats my favorite album of all time...
so maybe its a good thing if they are having problems in the studio, it seems to produce their best work

i imagine this is what has happened, and with u2 its something you should expect
