“We were trying to figure out, ‘Why would anyone want another U2 album?” Bono told BBC Radio 1’s Zane Lowe earlier this year according to gigwise.com . “We’ll find out if we’re irrelevant.”
I need a new U2 album and the UK tabloid The sun has said I am getting a new U album this November. I miss U2 and I mean I seriously miss U22, I can’t lose with this band. If they suck I get months of stories, if they are great I get months of stories, if they are good boys I get months of stories, if they are assholes I get months of stories.
Back when rock nyc started we must have written about them every other day for two years (except when Bono injured his back and we took a break till he was all fixed up), I myself reviewed both the Julie Taymor and the final product Spiderman movie, I sneered long and hard at so many things they did-but maybe especially Bono and the Edge’s music to this show.
I loathed the 2009 album and perhaps hated the Nelson Mandela song more, though the last thing they gave us, “Invisible” I really enjoyed. Go figure, right?
But through it all they were a fountain of, even costing me a couple of friendships with mutual acquaintances along the way, and I need them and am beyond excited they will be back. So Bono the answer is: we want another U2 album if only because it is much more fun picking on you than on Chris Martin.
