  2. quote :
    As it stands, the album is three seconds shy of an hour and, as Bono says, "too much of a good thing is a bad thing," so drastic measures need to be taken.

    "I have a theory," Mullen begins, and a reverential silence descends as the drummer -- traditionally the first band member to be shouted down in these situations -- states his case. After just five minutes, it has been unanimously decided that the track "Mercy," a six-and-a-half-minute outpouring of U2 at its most uninhibitedly U2-ish, must go.

    God almighty..... I had forgotten about that....
    U2 needs a manager who tells them it's OK to make a double album for once!
    Don't chicken out at the last minute and go for the standard 11 tracks, but make an album of 18 or 22 great tracks!
    you can NEVER get too much of a good thing as far as U2 is concerned!

    And what will the forum bitching be like, if its like this with 11 songs?
  4. any chance of this being on an ep or album?


  6. i think after yesterday's soundcheck its safe to say it will be on the new record
  9. I'm afraid i'm gonna faint if they start playing this in Brussels, missing the whole thing


  10. don't worry, if they ARE going to play it in Brussels, they will only do an acoustic version and probably screw up after the first verse....
