U218 doesn't really fit in, it was so random, like the songs were just thrown together with the 2 new songs just thrown at the end. the Best Ofs actually come across as if some planning went into the sequence of tracks and really represent the eras respectively


    Yeah I agree but it's a shame they saw fit to put ATYCLB on the 1990-2000 compilation.

    It essentially means they'll only have two 'albums' to choose from for the third instalment.

    There have been those U2.com videos that Adam's been filming, but they're only around 45 seconds each, with nothing really discernable, other than those few riffs. No cohesion, no fully formulated clips of songs.

    Which is exactly what is so great about those videos. Build the suspense, boys--we'll sit here salivating and let you do what you do best.

    Elevation and Walk On were singles in 2001...

    yeah, Smile was never officially released. nor was Mercy. Bono and Adam have both confirmed its place on the album


    My mistake on Smile - where can I read about adam confirming this on Mercy?

    Some of the somgs from ATYCLB were released in 2001 - so some of those could be on a 2000-2010


  6. Bono? Piano?! He should learn how to play guitar first. We do not need another Chris Martin

  7. Actually we knew about the piano...I believe Window In The Skies came out of this thing he mentions...writing a song after each lesson.
  8. isn't edge good enough anymore for the piano/keyboard?

    Yeah, that's what me made wondering. Edge is a good piano player, why let Bono playing the piano? Do they want to put the piano in the middle of a guitar solo?

    Maybe the Bono and the Edge realized that Bono's guitar playing just isn't working out, so they made a mutual agreement and let Bono play piano.
    I'm sure it's one of those things like Sweetest Things, where Bono will play a song or two. It's not like he'll take over New Years Day (HE BETTER NOT! )

    I hope he isn't! If he can play as good piano as he can play guitar...
