They've always been very specific about separating their work, ala Million Dollar Hotel and ATYCLB were done at the same time, and certain songs just fit that soundtrack and not the album. not sure if that even makes sense to what you said, but i'm trying to say that I don't think that the movie entered too much into the consciousness of the band. i know Bono used the "psychedelic pop" term for Window in the Skies....which i guess i understand? haha
i don't necessarily want to hear that term for the album, but i think this album is going to blow us all away, and we all know that a lot of Bono's hyperbole is just that; hyperbole. we'll only know when it comes out
All I meant was it couldve gotten into Bono's head a little bit. Besides, he most likely played that role because of how much he loves John Lennon and everything he's ever done. I still like to think late 60s music has a good percentage of influence in whats soon to come.
