I am, because:
- The press release (at u2.com) claimes "U218 Singles is the first single disc collection to span the band’s career from Boy (1980) to How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb (2004)": Well, there are no songs from Boy on it and October, Zooropa & Pop are also 'forgotten'. The phrase 'Best Of' is also used in some articles: IMHO this is by no means a 'best of' (I know how subjective that term is), but the tracks are just the most well known u2 singles. So they claim things that are
- I think this release's main goal is to attract more people to U2, but why only with the most familiar / radio-friendly / well known songs? A more diverse selection would do the different sides of U2 much more justice. I mean: where are Will Follow, Gloria, Numb, Stay, Please, ...?
But hey, I am happy with the release, because we get:
- a new single!![]()
- the Milan DVD!
Other opinions?
