Great, now non-U2 fans will ridicule me for liking a band that they think is releasing a song called 'Sexy Boots'. Well done, morons in the press.

That's why we love the press. Just think, the first video will be based in a shoe store and Bono will be playing the store attendant...

Where does that lead us to? I don't want to even start thinking about it.

I don't know that it has already written here in this topic, but I saw a rumour tracklist for the new album in a Hungarian U2 site:

01. The Cedars Of Lebanon
02. Moment Of Surrender
03. For Your Love
04. One Bird
05. No Line On The Horizon
06. It's Six O'Clock
07. If I Could Live My Life Again
08. Love Is All We Have Left
09. North Star
10. Mercy
11. Lead Me In The Way I Should Go
12. You Can't Give Away Your Heart

I don't know we can believe in this, but i think it's very exciting. I'm really waiting for the new album!

Interesting list but until it's from an official source...

...would be good to have an official version of "Mercy" out there. If they do put it on the new album, it'll be interesting to see what if any changes have been made. I love the 'version' that is out there floating around but still interesting to see if they improve on it or not.

And the whole article for those interested: http://www.herald.ie/entertainment/music/blood-on-the-dance-floor-1451807.html

How do we know it's going to be the first single?
Oh wait, that's right, we don't.

If the title isn't Sexy Boots, it's going to be hilarious to look back on all this and say "wow--we actually thought they said 'sexy boots'?"

There was a topic about this on Interference last week. That tracklist is from a torrent that someone discovered of the "new album"... turns out it's a fake, obviously.

All of those track titles are just rumoured track titles that have popped up on the interwebs over the past... four years.

lol yeah... indeed hehe

but IF it's true 'sexy boots' doesnt sound good to me, it doesn't sound U2-ish. But hey, thats what we were looking for right ;-)

ditto. I'd rather hear it the way it was intended to be heard by the band and the producers.

Agree on that one....gives me a Jesicca Simpson/every hiphop artist out there/RHCP feel...

The first song sounds complete to me. The rest certainly do not

So I hope In 20 years we can expect the "20th Anniversary Edition" of 'No Line On The Horizon', with a bonus cd/dvd of these demos and working versions! I'm saving up money already!
