V kratkem pričakujem, da bo poskenirano. Sicer pa je potrjenih 11 komadov
Stand Up Rousing groove-based rocker with shades of Led Zep and Cream
Magnificent Slow building anthem.......Edge at his most dynamic........"Only love can rest your mind"
Get on Your Boots Demented electro grunge with rock and roll riff and a hip-hop twist ind the middle.........."I dont wanna talk about war between nations"
Momement of Surrender Gorgeusly melodic............this album's One............U2 Classic.............."I did not notice the passers by/And they did not notice me". Recorded in one take.
Unknown Caller About a man "at the end of his rope" whose phone bizarrely begins texting him random insructions.........."Reboot yourself, Password enter here, Youre free to go!"
No Line on the Horizon Abrasive punk..........few versions hanging around.............its the buzzthingys meets Bow Wow Wow!
Crazy Tonight Upbeat 60's pop track era of Phil Spector..........."I'll go crazy I dont go crazy tonight" Sounds like a slogan for a tour T shirt!!!
Every Breaking Wave With or Without You style building up layers of guitar over electroncially enhance verses............Key line "Every Sailor knows that the Sea/Is a friend made enemy"
Breathe Arabic cello gives way to joyful chorus. Bran Eno says this is U2's best ever song.

The magazine article is not out yet. This info was given to us by someone here who received a preview email that was sent out to Q subscribers. To my knowledge the subscribers won't be getting the article for atleast a week or two. EDIT - tole naj ne bi bilo res ... morda pa še bo kako darilo pod jelko/smreko

Tisti ko ima revijo, zadeve ne bo poskeniral (bo potrebno še kak dan počakat), piše pa tu pa tam kako zadevo u2.interference.com/f196/28-pages-of-u2-in-q-feb-2009-edition-191714-14.htmlCedars of Lebanon Daniel lanois instigated closer that finds Bono imagining himself as a weary, lovelorn war correspondent "squeezing complicated lives into a simple headline". Ends with the possibly telling line "Choose your enemies carefully cos they will define you"
Winter Echoes of Simon & Garfunkel in this poignant, acoustic string laden ballad about a soldier in the snow of Afghanistan. Due to feature in the new Jim Sheridan film, Brothers, starring Tobey Maguire, about the emotional fallout of the war.
Every Breaking Wave With or Without You style pulsar that builds layers of guitars over electonically enhanced verses before opening up into an expansive drop chorus and then ultimately exploding into an ecstatic coda. Key Line: "Every sailor knows that the sea/Is a friend made enemy"
Breathe Ranting verse over rolling tom-tom rhythem and Arabic cello gives way to a joyful chorus that finds the singer stepping out of the darkness and into the light. Surely set to be a highlight of U2's upcoming shows. "Brian (Eno) say its our best song", Edge points out.
The overall impression is that this isnt the final list and names may change and the order may well be different. Bonos talks about a song called Tripoli which is a guy on a motorcycle, a Moraccan french cop, whos going AWOL. He drives though France and Spain down to this village outside of Cadiz where you can actually see the fires of Africa burning.
Crazy Tonight Upbeat pop track with distinct echoes of 60's era Phil Spector, particularly the moment when its chorus disappears into a wash of reverb. Centres around the line: "I'll go crazy If I dont go crazy tonight", "Which sounds like a T=shirt slogan to me" notes the singer.
Unknown Caller Opens with the sound of birdsong recorded live in Fez. A middle eastern flavoured percussion loop drives this tale about a man"at the end of his rope" whose phone bizarrely begins texting him random instructions: "Reboot yourself","Password, enter here","You're free to go"
Get on Your Boots Formerly titled Sexy Boots this demented electro grunge employs a proto-rockn'roll riff, but propelled into the future, before taking a sudden hip-hop twist midway through. Feature bono in flirtacious, self depreciating mode: "I dont wanna talk about wars between nations".
Moment of Surrender Georgiously melodic 7 minute song that already has the air of the U2 classic about it, with lyrics about dark stars and existential crises:"I did not notice the passers-by/And they did not notice me". Recorded in one take. This album's One.
Magnificent Slow building anthem with the ambience of the Unforgettable Fire and laced with the wide eyed wonder of U2's earlier albums. Edge here is at his most dynamic. Features the line:"Only love can reset your mind".
Unknown Caller Dallas Schoo describes the song as "one of Edge's major solos in his life - you wont hear better than that on any other song".
Definately planning on playing outside but Bono said he couldn't give details due to Livenation rights..........promises that it will be something not yet done".

Larry Mullen - I might have said too much - Interview
Good interview with Larry........key notes.......He wants to get another album out sooner than later after this release as thye've loads of material...........they got on well with Rick Rubin but just clashed as they dont like to just go in and complete songs, they need to improvise.
He says hes careful over bono-isms!!! I think they've gagged Bono a bit more on this album!
He holds no punches and wont tie the party line. He calls Tony Blair a war criminal and is uneasy seeing Bono mixing with him.
He finishes his interview as one track only has Brain Eno tapping his chest and has no drum part. Doesn't sound like this is on the songs i've mentioned in this thread.
Brian Eno said that Crazy Tonight was in a bad way which suprised Larry........it must have got worse over night........sounds like they're really cramming in the last few weeks so anything could change!!!

Every Breaking Wave Lilliywhite cues up the track, a slow burning track called Every Breaking Wave that gradually builds to a climax brimming with passion and intensity. Bono begins to sing rocking forward and backwards on his studio chair............he performs a note perfect vocal that employs the movement of the ocean as a mataphor for the human struggle, before building to the plaintive line "I dont know if i'm that strong". Two takes and 10 minutes later its done.
U2 are currently running three different studios at Olympic.
Edge I'm still trying to get my head around exactly what we'll end up with. The record is almost cganging every day.............Stand Up is just a great gutsy performance from everyone.
Stand Up is a swaggering rock and roll song with a real groove.........there's some dirt in what your playing...............Yes, its totally unreasonable. If you're going to do a big guitar song I think you need to push it all the way. It started with a Moraccan rhythm and gone rock nroll.
Breathe It's 8pm and Eno, Bono and Will.i.am are on Olympic Studio 1 writing a cello part for a song called Breathe that U2 - a touch ambitiously - are only beginning to record in ths final fortnight, never mind mix.............the singer belts out a rollicking vocal featuring door-to-door salesman, a thingyatoo and a chorus that begins "Step out into the street.......sing your heart out".

October 2008 Bono and Edge fly to Los Angeles to see BB King at a jazz awards ceremony. Bon goes to address 14,000 women. The Edge goes to see Rick Rubin and plays back the songs to him............."And actually I wrote the chords to the chorus (new song) Stand Up.......it was a good trip".
Adam Interview - Did the others have a good album? I think this has been very, very hard. It's been hard on Edge, cos its taken a lot of his time. And Bono because he had to find new ways of expressing himself. Some of the lyrics are Bono writing in the third person, which is not something he has been very successful at before. Larry found it difficult as well.............Adam.............. I had a really good record. And I dont say that very often. i normally have nuts record where I really struggle.
U2 comments on Beach Clips!Edge heard them and Bono was cool with them being recorded...........the others and the record company wasn't too happy.............blames it on the vino vérité!!!
Edge "I want people to listen to it as opposed to just buying it. I want this to be an album people go back to, and really get into, in-depth. Like all the records I love...........I think we've learned a few things over the years. So I think it could hopefully be a bringing to bear all of those eureka moments from the past. And I think it could be our best album.

ne vem, vse fotke so mi zelo fajn, samo ona prva pa mi je prav obupna ... samo fotka iz albuma na Bombi (zadnja v ovitku, ko je Larry = smrt) je še slabša
