U2 - Songs Of Experience (2017)
 Tracks: 14
  2. Red Flag for me, I was grinning like a Cheshire cat all the way through, when the beat goes half time with Edge singing, i was just jumping for joy!
  3. So strange hearing unfamiliar songs that in a matter of weeks will feel like they have existed forever.
  4. Love is Bigger...has hints of Elbow in it for me, rather grand and epic.

    This album has so many corkers and heart string pullers. I am surprised!
  5. Also, The Blackout fits perfectly in the album, and sounds even better in that context.
  6. I've had my first listen to the album and i'm very pleased with what I heard. They sound like a band who are in a great place, happy and writing great songs

    The Little Things is a masterpiece and should be played in very live show going forward it's really that good. The Showman and 13 are the weaker tracks on SOE but in time i'm sure i'll love them just as much as the others.

    I would swap the blackout with Summer of Love just purely as it's after a mellow song, would fit better on the first half of the record.

    Standout tracks after first listen are:

    Lights of Home
    Summer of Love
    Red Flag Day
    Little Things
    Love Is Bigger Than Anything It It's Way

    if you love u2 ballads then you'll like Landlady and 13

    All in all it's a brilliant collection of songs and stands up as a great album. Their best since HTDAAB

  7. I think it sounds like a track that would fit well on pop. It’s another great tune.
  8. rob is live again on FB
  9. 13 - that Song for Someone chorus - sounds like death/dying...

    Brilliant album! Need to get my head around it all. Cheers guys!

    You are absolutely right. This album is a classic one. I'm surprised and very, very pleased with this album.
