    the thing is kids are now more subject to finding music on the web. whatever the best song is they have to have. the original charting is based upon sales, done by fans. hip-hop is another. just wish there would be a rap song where someone sings (is that an oxymoron?).

    However, there is good news. U2start, I don't care about the Billboard Hot 100, because it means crap to me. I go by itunes charts, mainly because so many people use that or steal the songs. I love how Viva la Vida has been #1 on those charts since release. I expect to see this song up there even longer since the album has yet to come out in the US.

    Plus any song that the radio stations shelve is "old". Then again my hit radio station sometimes plays some ACDC and others, but the songs are cliché by the artist.

    As for hip hop, metal, and others, listen up! I figure this new album will out your ranks and put your genres to shame.

    OH MY GOD I HATE THAT SONG!!!!!!

    sorry, but if U2 ever covered that song I would burn my entire collection

    Anyway, today, music is whatever. We all have different tastes. "Rock 'n' roll used to be dance music". The thing is, dancing styles have changed. SO in order for songs to fit that they become remixed. These remixes are compared to the originals and sometimes hated by fans. AS for me I would love to dance to the Perfecto Mix of EBTTRT!

    ALBUM NAME: unknown
    PRODUCER(s): Brian Eno, Daniel Lanois, and Steve Lillywhite have all been in the studio during album sessions
    ALBUM RELEASE DATE: October, 2008, according to Paul McGuinness
    FORMATS: unknown
    TRACKLIST: unknown

    POSSIBLE SONGS MENTIONED:
    These are songs that have been mentioned in the buildup to U2's next studio album:

    "No Line On The Horizon" - Bono and Edge played this song for a USA Today writer during an in-the-car interview at the Sundance Film Festival. On hearing it, writer Anthony Breznican says "heavy distortion fills the car," and later adds: "The song is rough, weaving between brutal guitar blasts underscoring the mellow title refrain." Edge explains that the song "It came out of a new distortion box that my guitar tech got."

    Unknown Title - in the same interview with Anthony Breznican, Bono and Edge played a second song whose opening lyric is, "It's six o'clock...". Bono tells Breznican that numbers are significant in each of the new songs.

    "If I Could Live My Life Again" - Bono says this song is "inspired by the great Argentinian poet Jorge Luis Borges." Bono said he had just begun the song while speaking with author Michka Assayas in December, 2005. Their interview appears as the extra material in the paperback version of Bono in Conversation with Michka Assayas.

    "Love Is All We Have Left" - a song Bono named during his May, 2006, trip to Africa as one that he had recently written. "It’s like an old Broadway tune. I thought it was a Frank Sinatra song," Bono said.

    "North Star," a song from the How To Dismantle an Atomic Bomb sessions which included a guest organ appearance from Michael W. Smith. In this CCM article, Smith describes the song as a tribute to Johnny Cash.

    "Mercy", one of the last songs to get cut from How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb, described in Blender magazine as "a six-and-a-half-minute outpouring of U2 at its most uninhibitedly U2-ish"

    "Lead Me In The Way I Should Go" -- a contender for Atomic Bomb first mentioned in this February, 2003, interview with Bono in Grammy Magazine

    "You Can't Give Away Your Heart" - a contender for Atomic Bomb first mentioned in SPIN magazine

    I remember reading the interview about the song that's accredited as "No Line On The Horizon" - good ol' Dallas I say sounds like it's gonna be one of the singles in my opinion, assuming it does get released on the new album
