    Uh oh, it says additional production by will.i.am. and worse additional vocals.

    If they had to do a collaboration with a hip hop artist, they should have gone with Jay Z, who is supposedly better, certainly his contribution to Coldpay's Lost+ was well done, with some impressive lyrics.

    And what does it mean by U2 produced NLOTH 2, not Eno & Lanois (who are credited for the music though).


    Judge after listening please. And Jay-Z's collaboration with Coldplay wasn't a success imo.


  2. Jay-Z ruined it for me...

    Maybe the Will.I.Am vocals are the reason why it's NLOTH 2

    And maybe the boys in U2 did this one completely themselves
    without help of Eno and Lanois?
    Another reason why it could be a B-side


  4. definitely. I was totally enjoying the piano and suddenly, there's jay-z grunting his hip hop crap into the song. bah.
  5. NLOTH 2 slightly differs in speed and instrumentation. Also the closing part is a little different.
    Looking forward to Will

    Oh, and it looks like the difference between the 2-track and the 3-track version will be that the "3-track" version has a download link for the Boots video.


  6. I think it's pretty good, cool that they were open to that experimentation. I prefer the regular version, and I'm no fan of Jay-Z, but i thought it an interesting collaboration. Wil.I.Am is certainly not the first person to think of when collaborating with U2, but we'll see. I'm not really a fan of hip hop though

    Did you hear the Beach Clip?


  10. I read the review from someone who listened to 30 seconds of Beach Clip 6.

    Hmm, I'll wait changing the dates on the frontpage until some official news pop up. It's weird nothing about the video was posted on u2.com too.


    Release date is Feb 20th now (confirmed by Universal Germany)
