When will the album leak? Part 2.

[mwheelonh]

Go go gadget loop leak!

I think there does come a point when you can take something like this too seriously. At the end of the day it is just some songs and they'll always be there later. When it starts getting in the way of work or responsibilities I think it's time to give it a rest.

Not pointing any fingers here.

agree, though I think people are just really excited. We have been waiting over 4 years and it'd be really cool to be one of the first people in the world to hear the album, just like my friend was one of the first people to realize you could buy Boots on iTunes while we were all waiting for the radio premiere

but yeah, don't let it interfere with your life to an extreme. I think I went a little nuts yesterday

as for ybab gnuthca ... seriously? We're all diehards, I bet everyone here has either pre-ordered the album or is already committed to buying it just because it's U2. Will it really offend you that much if we listen to it a little early? We're just excited, is that such a bad thing?

Oh my...the first part of the 45-second clip of Fez-Being Born sounds positively Sigur Ros-esque. Who would've thunk it?

 

[angel_28]

I'm starting to hope this doesn't leak. Seeing all these dogs greedily awaiting their bone to be thrown at them makes me sick.

Well I have the pre ordered the limited Edition off I Tunes and I will buy most, if not all physical copies of the album...so I don't think I'm being greedy in wanting the thing to leak.
I think we are just all hungry U2 fans who have been waiting 4 years for a new album...and we would love to hear it...we need our U2 drug...we are in with drawl..lol..well that is how I feel anyway.

It feels like every other thought I have is interrupted by "LEAK DAMNIT MUST HEAR NLOTH". Time is moving in slow motion for me.

As others have said before me, no one's forcing you to stay here...

 

[angel_28]

Well I'm not totally obsessed with NLOTH leaking ,I can still get my work done.
But I am here every night now checking...and obviously contributing to the discussions...it is an exciting time,and I want to be here when it happens ...so thank god next week I have the week off..me hopes it leaks between now and then..more time to savor the music..hehe

 

[nirniva]

OK, 2 weeks...sorry...

If my reply came across as being sarcastic, I'm sorry. I was honestly excited, but sarcasm (or the lack thereof) tends to carry poorly over these Intertubes.

I wish I could make a post like this and make believe I found it:

It leaked!!

BUT I CAN'T

Oh well, maybe tomorrow. Personally, I'm happy if it leaks over the next few days, as I have a long weekend!

EDIT: Here's the latest from FarBeat: The admin put NLOTH on the "main page", which generally means that an album has leaked. However, the album is not there...only the 5:30 preview, GOYB, and NLOTH2. Still, the fact that they put the album on the main page could mean something...keep your eyes on this place, Interferers.

 

[Gonna Run 2 U]

I hope it leaks Saturday morning...if not before.

I hope it leaks Saturday morning...if not before.

I'm hoping for before, as I'm going on an hour-long bus ride Saturday, and I won't be getting back until afternoon. So...fingers crossed for Friday.

OMG! We have confirmation (via Telegraph.co.uk) that review copies have been shipped! It's only a matter of time now, guys!
Whoops! Browser Settings Incompatible

Monday then! For a review, I mean, not a leak.

 

[popacrobat]

sweet.

 

[nirniva]

Of course, if there's not a leak by Monday, Interference will completely freaking collapse under the force of a million metric tons of pure anticipation.

I bet it will leak by next week, though. If there are copies out there, then someone is likely to leak it. Which would prevent the implosion of Interference.

Metric, long, and short tons/tonnes!

YAAAAAAAAY!

I don't have a life outside of this place.

 

[angel_28]

Nice! here's hoping..

I'm still holding out hope it comes out this weekend..but next week would be fine..

Pleeeease let it be on my week off next week...that is all I want...oh U2 leak gods hear my prayers

 

[nirniva]

It's 11:11 my time! Everyone wish for a leak tomorrow!

EDIT: Damn, I'm a minute late.

 

[nirniva]

Artdirector, if you're reading the thread, does your source have any new info? Just wondering.

[Gilead12]

Monday...


(as in my next edition of RS?)

 

[LemonMelon]

I'm going to stick with my previous guess:

February 15, 10:38 PM.

If any of those "early recipients" happen to be scanning this thread, could you please do Inteference the favor of LEAKIN' THAT BIYOTCH? You will be remembered in song and story forevermore. Thank you.

What time zone are we talking about here?

 

[namkcuR]

If reviewers are starting to receive their copies today, then that one report from last month that said U2.com would stream the album starting on the 15th would make some sense if the purpose is to counteract a leak.

You would be our hero..and that person too..

Everyone think leaky thoughts...
