  1. The drums definitely have me thinking 90s style Larry drumming, yes!

    Also, anyone else think that the lyrics Bono sings are kind of tied to his oft-quoted opinion that "America's not a country, it's an idea"?

    "It's not a place, this country is to be a sound of drum and bass..."

    Obviously!
  3. I don't understand why this is important. U2 should care about their own fanbase.

  5. It's clear that you don't like the song at all, which is fine. But take a look at this article for why this collaboration between Kendrick and U2 makes a lot of sense. They both are socially and politically engaged in important issues and both trying to push boundaries creatively by doing this. The author compare this song to a Zooropa-type collaboration...

  6. I liked Bono's part, but not the song. I'm fine with the collaboration as long as it doesn't foreshadow SOE.
  7. "Bono turns 57 next month, which means he isn’t much younger now than Cash was (61) when Zooropa was released."

    That's actually painful to read.

    Cash passed away after just 10 years of recording The Wanderer...

    This isn't a U2 song people. For God sakes. If you think this is SOE you must be nuts. That said, I liked it.
  12. He might be being sarcastic. People keep Tweeting these things like when Kanye worked with Paul McCartney. Or he is an idiot which is also very likely.
