    It also took Bono supposedly ten minutes to write When Love Comes To Town. Some of the best songs are those that are written in short bursts.


    ive always wondered why i dont like that song
  2. Couple of short interviews with Edge from the Golden Globe awards:



  3. But the really interesting answer was: margerita's and tequilla's!....

    Come on people, we get to hear A NEW SONG this friday... My God you lazy asses


    Still nothing.......... I agree with you!


  6. Yep, this is officially the new interference

    1 OFFICAL new song THIS FRIDAY => Nobody is interested
    RUMOURS about a new album NEXT YEAR => Oh my god, so excited

    Oh well

  7. Is it confirmed he'll sing the new song?


  8. Since its Haiti relief, I highly doubt itll be U2. Haiti just happened,and U2 haven't had the time since to produce a studio cut that's up to their releasing standards and all that jazz. Acoustic, live performances (or even clean electric- SIMPLE is what I'm getting at) are much easier to pull off in a short amount of time. So yes, the multiple celebrities involved in this, plus the fact that they cranked it out AWFUL quickly, leads me to believe that it will only be Bono and Edge.

    But Bono and Edge are better than nothing at all, so I'll remain mildly excited to hear it. Can't say it'll be racking up the play counts on my iPod, but it'll be nice to hear something new before the 4-year standard that u2 have set for releases

    MTV is reporting additional details about the Hope For Haiti telethon being held on 22 January 2010. The appearance will not just be Bono solo; The Edge will accompany him. The telethon is being held in three locations: London, Los Angeles, and New York, and Bono and Edge will perform at the London leg. The specific location is not given. MTV simply states it will happen at "a London venue".

    Interestingly, MTV also reports that Bono and Edge will be joined by rapper Jay-Z. Although they pitch it as a "once-in-a-lifetime collaboration", it has in fact happened before - very recently too. On 5 November 2009, Jay-Z joined all of U2 for Sunday Bloody Sunday when they performed at the Brandenburg Gate.

    Bono, The Edge, and Jay-Z will perform together Friday night in London during the "Hope for Haiti" benefit telethon. That much seems certain; there seems to be a chance Rihanna may also join them. Earlier today, MTV News posted this article, which says Rihanna will be part of the performance. About 90 minutes later, MTV posted this article (by the same author) which says the performance will only be Bono, Edge, and Jay-Z. Either way, the benefit will run from 8-10 pm ET and will be shown commercial-free across several US television networks, as well as on several international channels and networks.




    The unnamed venue would be an interesting bet if it was in the O2 London.
