    or because they are stuck in a moment.

    exactly
  3. Hard to come with a crappy album if you have must choose between 60 songs. If it is crappy afterall, they just put the wrong ones on it or the rest is even more crap.

    Some rumors are just contradictory

    i guarentee they take the cream of the crop, polish off what they chose, and release a masterpiece. Thats what the Who did with Quadrophenia in 1973......about 60 songs too lol


    there are reports that they had 100 for All that you can't leave behind, the outcome wasn't that impressive

    Anyway, as I mentioned before, Achtung Baby and JT are the ones to "beat" with this release. We'll see what it brings.

    'We wanted to release an album that was made up of 11 or 12 singles' lol Bono you stupid little man. Thats not an album
  6. A lot of pages back I already stated that they can't make a bigger record than AB or JT. Can still be a massive album though. I'm now in the mood that almost all new material excites me (and not only bootlegs).

    I can't see them bettering it but we'l not know that until 10 years after it's released so who knows

    I still expect a 3th best. AB/JT is just way too hard to beat. These were the first hits for U2. But Zooropa, Pop, ATYCLB and HTDAAB aren't that perfect. From these four, I consider Pop and ATYCLB as the best. HTDAAB is a nice listen, but over the past 4 years, I only listened to it 10 times or so. Not much...

    I hope this new one makes you wanna listen it every minute...

    When it's out I will listen it non-stop for the first 4 months or so. Unless it's crap (which it won't bet).

    there isn't anything else in the world that will kill your thought of an album than playing it to death. I did it with Bomb (but thankfully it was crap) but i've recently did it with Achtung and it wasn't good. I haven't listened to it fully now for over 6 months. Boy and Pop are the only 2 U2 albums that have a freshness about them whenever I put them on


  11. Here's hoping.

    Me too, did the same with HTDAAB (for 1 month though). I still know when I got it and put it in my stereo for the first time. Vertigo made a decent impression, Miracle Drug was allright. COBL, SYCMIOYO and OOTS however were instant favourites of me after the first listen. Coincidence or not, these are the best tracks. I find that strange, because a real album usually needs time to grow on you.
