  1. This thread is dead without ade's contributions...
  2. If American Skin is on the new album, will it be the old version with Danny and Clarence? Or will it be a new cut with Morello?


  3. Agree, missing also Ade's contributions.

    This thread is not the same anymore!

  4. They released it already as a CD-R promo single... I don't think they would use that same version for a new album. A re-recorded one would make more sense, I think.
  5. According to a Dutch website, tomorrow the name and date for the new album will be official, just as a new tour will be announced.

    Oh and I'm gonna do some promotion for myself here .

    Bruce fans, help getting him high in our U2start toplist www.u2start.com/topic/9764/0/25/

  7. Originally posted by dylbagz:Apparent tracklist of the new album according to BTX rumours. Guy who posted it had it nearly 100% right before Wrecking Ball was released:

    Dream Baby Dream
    High Hopes
    Harry's Place
    Heaven's Wall
    This is Your Sword
    Just Like Fire Would

    The Wall

    Well Chris on BTX had it right. I'm keen on it, regardless of half of it being made up of covers or other older, known songs.
  8. Songs we already know from High Hopes:

    High Hopes
    Harry's Place
    American Skin
    Just Like Fire Would
    Tom Joad
    The Wall
    Dream Baby Dream

    Doesn't leave much new still, only new arrangements I guess. Although Harry's Place has never been heard.
  9. "Meeeeeeeeeeeet me at Harry's Place, we're gonna have a party."

    Yeah, I'm not too crazy about it either. But maybe the new songs (Atleast I think they're new) will be memorable enough to ignore it. Will I still buy it? Of course. I always buy everything Bruce puts out on opening day... ha
  10. Yeah I wish he would have released an album full of Springsteen only songs, but it is what it is. I will still buy it and enjoy it. I am a fan of High Hopes, having seen it twice already and seen what Morello can do. Just Like Fire Would is also a good song and is great live, saw that one on debut also. I also think Tom Joad with Morello is sensational live. Love American Skin and hopefully I finally get to see that one live next year too. I don't mind what I've seen of The Wall from East Rutherford I think it was and Dream Baby Dream is fine as a closer. Hopefully the rest of the new (?) tracks are quality Springsteen productions. At least the shows now have a new core and will be significantly different to 2013.

    I can honestly see myself loving this one, if done right.

    (And yes, I don't particularly like a lot of Springsteen covers as they waste time where other better songs could be played live, but I have moved past that for this release and upcoming tour. No other way around it.)
  11. We're they just put in there as filler? Fearing that it would look too short? Look at BTR (8 songs) and WIESS (7 songs). *shrugs*

    "Dream Baby Dream" is a beautiful closer. I was lucky enough to witness it back in 2005. And it was my first show. Brilliant gig. Wouldn't mind seeing him solo again...
  12. Not sure. This one seems as if it is very strong thematically to me though. So maybe that's what's with the inclusion of all of random (disjointed?) outtakes, originals (?) and covers.

    Solo would be great
