NLOTH sales were miserable so I'm hopping that they'll forget about charts this time and deliver something for the fans.

Miserable by U2's standards, otherwise it sold very well.

Miserable by any standards, they sold only one million in USA?

Remember Bono saying that he would love to make another hit single?

Bono and his hit single ... hit singles: Vertigo, Elevation... they're all shit songs. If you compare them with Original Of The Species, Heartland, One Tree Hill, A Sort Of Homecoming, they weren't singles but they're still better songs than any singles. So just try to do good music and not music which gives money.

Amen to that - how many hit singles does Bono need in his life? If U2 never had a #1 and they were hungry for their first I'd understand...but now it sounds like Bono's ego wasn't fed properly with NLOTH.Originally posted by 17s:[..]
