Thanks for posting! Some interesting stuff in there, though I do worry that this album, much like SOI, will be so personal for Bono that it'll be hard to draw different interpretations from the songs themselves. I don't have a problem with more introspective writing and while I really enjoyed SOI, it was difficult to read much into the songs other than biographical stories from the band themselves.

This says "there is a light" is the closing song. I thought little things was the last song. Hmmmm.

More info in here than all the other stuff we've heard combined.

Write as if you're dead.....Love it

The brush with mortality seems serious. Bonos never been the healthiest of people....

Most personal ever never heard that one before ????

Exciting times though.....

Thanks a lot for the scan!

Strange about Little Things. Was it dropped in the last minute or re-named?

Either the article has the wrong information, or it will be second to last. "The end is here, sometimes"- (final song starts)

On my tracklist I have both songs are listed on the album. The only way 'Little Things' has been renamed is just that. I believe it's no longer 'The little things that give you away'

I highly doubt this. The article has the wrong info or the tracklist has been rearranged. U2 wouldn't have played little things on jimmy kimmel unless they were absolutely positive it was done.

I'm looking forward to the 'digital effects' on Bono's voice. Is zoo station the most he's ever used this? Other examples? I like the use of it on the studio clip of black out.

Good to hear Haim involved! Really like their first album, and loved them live.

What type of punk is it this time?

Punk soul r&b nu metal rap rock with an Elton John twist from Clonmel?

I see U2 as a punk band ... they've always asked questions ... challenged the norm and still to this day play by their own rules.

Mothers of the Disappeared, One Tree Hill could both be Strummer songs in my eyes.

MOTD is probably my favourite song from TJT.....sonically i love the metallic feel it has that underpins it.

Lyrically it is strong too.

Never done it justice live though IMO
