It's too early for me to judge this thing, but I'm loving it so far. I'm probably overwhelmed with excitement from the moment Bono asked Tim Cook if he could press the magic apple button and give it to us. After all the doubts I had, and a little anger at how long it was taking, all in the world is right again...a new U2 album without even going to the stores...and Prince has 2 of them for me at the end of the month!

    It was all right and I was thinking "Wow!! a Jason post without a Prince mention!"...

    ...but you screwed it up at the end
  2. Not a lot of people have heard this album before us...media etc, good to be up there, sounds class.
  3. Well its a nice album but im confused as to where these thoughts come from or what the songs are about, I need to read the book lol

    Ha! When people realize the passion I have for U2, and they realize that I have listened to over 200 shows from bootlegs, and know I've traveled long and far for some of the shows, they are even more shocked I have double the passion for Prince. But honestly, this new album is sounding great to me, so I'll leave Prince out of this for now! "Song For Someone" is really growing on me. It's like they're shoveling off the mess...uh snow that was "White As Snow." The vocals remind me of the vocal arrangement of "Babyface."
  5. This is a collection of songs for me, not an album. Incomplete or too many producers?

  6. Crucify me if you want, but I'm interested to hear the supposed dance album.

    I love the Crazy Tonight live mix.

  7. that was me haha

    jesus christ i love this record

  8. Un. be.lie.vable.

    Was not expecting this. The little I've heard sounds great. Off to bed now with my headphones.....
  9. I was thinking that the whole album sounds live-friendly....
  10. I can't believe this!!
  11. Tight focused songs, no vague ideas - sharp fast very accessible, very nice
