  2. “This feels like recess after the oil rig I’ve been working on,” Bono joked to TheWrap about the break he took from the recording of U2’s new album. (His three bandmates stayed on the oil rig, which is to say in the recording studio.)

    He also said that while the Academy has yet to announce it, U2 will perform their nominated song “Ordinary Love” on the Oscar show. “It’ll be the only band performance of the song,” he said. “After Mandela died, we didn’t think it would be right to release it as a single, because it would seem like we were trying to capitalize. So we’re going to do it this once – but it’s a pretty good place to do it.”

  6. Technically it wasn't really released as a single, it was on that OST but had a music video.
  7. I agree entirely with what he's saying here, no disappointments at all
