Songs of Obamacare, New Album Title Replacing Songs of Experience
« on: October 29, 2017, 08:41:16 PM »
With Songs of Experience delayed and reworked twice, once due to Trump and a second time due to Bono's health, the band decided the album needed a new title to reflect their political and personal journey. Songs of Obamacare kills two birds with one stone, covering the band's reactions to the politics of America, and Bono's struggles to get decent, affordable healthcare as an immigrant.

Discuss the track list here!

U2 Fans: We'd all love to see that, Edge.

Love it!  How about "The Miracle (that never materialized) of Joey Biden"....how he almost saved us from this dystopian nightmare that is our current lives, but alas, did not.

Oh I can see this going off the rails, but I'll play along:

1. Death Panel
2. Medicaid from your table
3. Cover me
4. The mandate
5. Pre-existing
6. No line on the EKG
7. The miracle
8. Wake up dead man
9. So cruel
10. Heart rate 269

Reworking old songs and lyrics will work too. Covers of other bands.

Crumbs From Trump Tower has a nice ring to it.

I wanted to check out the liner notes and album artwork, but I have to buy it to see what’s in it.
