    Bono and Co. can do no wrong!



  2. 2

    Thoughts? They suck!



  3. 3

    Get On Your Earmuffs BECAUSE THIS SUCKS!!!! LOL Just kidding. Please, don't stab me, because I can't say ANYTHING bad about U2 and how boring they've become. Stars101 has it right, GIVE ME SOME GAGA!!! I'd take a ride on her disco stick over Bono's old washed up one.

    cool song–great video.

    No fucking thanks, Bono is a bitch.



  7. 7

    Oh man, I couldn't do the whole thing. Maybe later.
    Visuals are stunning but the song sucked!
    About 55 secs it changed into a whole different feel. Kind of everything but the kitchen sink! Ugh!

    Re: Jay Nash – you said it!!!



  9. 9

  10. 10

    wow, I'm crying here in my boots. U2 is one of the best bands ever and this sucks ass and not in a good way! Very Terrence Trent D'arby circa 1989.



  12. 12

    U2 are as sexy as ever.



  13. 13

    Bono can do no wrong. OMG. I'm in love.



  14. 14

    its alright, not the best though, i've seen better

  15. wsaut says – reply to this


    15

    Sucks like most of the stuff they do !!!



  16. 16

    sounds like one of their other songs…



  17. 17

    I LOVE BONO!!!!!! This is the greatest video know th man!!!!!



  18. 18

    I love U2 and I will always want Bono's love child, but I've heard this song over and over again and it's just not growing on me. Sounds too much like "Vertigo". We'll see how the rest of the album is!

  19. pomme says – reply to this


    19

    see my logo! shake your ass! but this song is very "queen of the stone age"in the chorus!



  20. 20

    vid is, blah! song is ok… i'll still see them live… always get my moneys worth… that's the point right… a band that could still sell out show, has to be good..



  21. 21

    huge fan for 20 plus years but……the video may be better than the song itself



  22. 22

    Not their best work. Makes me what to listen to "The Joshua Tree" again.



  23. 23

    It sounds like My Sharona.



  24. 24

    Sounds a bit like the stuff they did on their Zooropa Album.
    Which leaves me a little confused. For all of you who know U2, they are never going back… they are always experimental…

    So I´m not sure where they are going… until I heard the complete album I guess.

    The video I found a bit trashy, though it had its eyecatching moments.
    The song itself… I liked it very much.
    If you listen to it with the whole U2 sound-history in mind and ears… it´s damn good!



  25. 25

    Calling Jim Morrison and Jimmy Hendricks!! Head Trip.

    Chessy video/bad song, hopefully elvis costello gets some sorta writing credit for ripping off "pump it up".



  27. 27

    first of all i'm glad Perez and co. post up new music for us to hear. the best part about this video is the astronomy. the song is edgy and harmonically unique but that doesn't necessarily make it effective. the lyrics are refreshing though and i think Bono gives a good vocal performance. the main guitar riff is cool but just doesn't hit me like the amazing one from 'Vertigo'. when i write music, if a new track isn't as good as the best track i've ever written (in my opinion of course lol), i don't consider it finished. and aren't men lucky? imagine if this was four women of the same age…

    overall an original arrangement that doesn't quite go the distance. 7/10

    Not sure how I feel about the song, but the video rocks!

    Re: *~*TINA*~* – Dear, were you aware that you have an awful stuttering problem. Maybe a spank would help.



  30. 30

    Over…

    Not feeling the new single…

  32. suede says – reply to this


    32

    Bad Joke, bad… ow wait! not a joke?
    Damn it!
    This sucks in so many levels…
    If you hear the song backwards it says… Come on people give us our money, we need money, this crisis is affecting us too, come on, I know you can do it, it doesn't matter if the tickets cost half of your paycheck… and so on…



  33. 33

    I agree some of you may like better other u2 songs but U2 IS U2 they re the best rock band ever!!! and I like the video and will buy the album 4sure!!



  34. 34

    The verse sounds like the verse from the 80's song "Wild, Wild West" by Escape Club… google it, you'll see…



  35. 35

    the first thing that somes to mind is coldplay's video for "viva la vida"……
    .
    .
    except the song totally sucks……and ima big fan of U2…i saw them 3 times live…..but this…..puke…..
    .
    puke
    .
    puke
    .
    La Puke!



  36. 36

    worse U2 single in history, it truly sucks, they are capable of so much better



  37. 37

    I'm a U2 loyalist, but does anyone get a "We Didn't Start the Fire" vibe?



  38. 38

    I love this song and video. U2 is most excellent band ever and outrageously outstanding in concert. I highly recommend everyone see them once sometime during your lifetime. You will not be disappointed.



  39. 39

    loved it, love them u2 rules



  40. 40

    Bono still wishes he was bob Dylan and the band still wishes they were the Doors!!!



  41. 41

    Re: Countess Spanktacular – Oooh, I get to be a smartass AND I get a spanking??

    Do I also get a good hair pull??

    This is my lucky day, bitches! ;)

  42. MCPot says – reply to this


    42

    Thanks for putting that up Perez! The video is freakin amazing! LOVE the ONE bands in it. I liked the song upon first listen … then I wasn't feeling it …… then the video came out … and BAMN … I'm feeling it. U2 … BEST. BAND. SINCE. THE. BEATLES. Nuff said.



  43. 43

    Pass….sounds like team vomit



  44. 44

    DUDE! THIS IS HOT!
    Wow at first I heard the song and was like WTF!
    then I kept wanting to hear it again and it just grew on me…
    it's really catchy!

    then the video..
    u2 is going to start the beat revolution of the 2-10's!

    it's all totally innovative, keeps true to U2.
    who cares if you don't like it, all you guys like to do here is hate anyways!



  45. 45

    Always loved them - always will !!!!!



  46. 46

    bono looks more like robin williams everyday and their videos just get weirder



  47. 47

    Sounds like they ripped off Elvis Costello's Pump It Up.



  48. 48

    I love this song! They seriously have the groove going on here - loads of energy. Haters can suck my root!



  49. 49

    These Arrogant, Talentless, Marxist Pigs, need to be called down for what they are? Being able to carry a tune is just that, no more?



  50. 50

    Loved the video. The song is ok.



  51. 51

    excellent!! I love it and will buy their CD.



  52. 52

    wow…

    the guys have lost their touch…..

    they need to stop that icky kind of music NOW.

    they need to get back to their roots.



  53. 53

    Luv this video - took a few plays b4 I could actually get into the song - it's just so different - and sometimes it's good to change it up - I likes!



  54. 54

    Glad everyone loves the video…it was so good that Oasis copied it almost entirely about 5 months ago…oh wait. Check out the video for Shock of the Lightning to see how "original" u2's video is.



  55. 55

    “She's so mean but I don't care/ I love her eyes and her wild wild hair
    dance to the beat that we love best
    heading for the nineties
    living in the wild wild west
    the wild wild west

    Yep Pretty much lifted the chorus from the Escape Clubs - wild wild west - cool video though - and yes - it's not THAT good - expected MUCH better from them



  56. 56

    they need to give it up! maybe start knitting, volunteering at the local vet's office!



  57. 57

    I love it, but the verses are the same melody as "Fruit at the Bottom" by the fantastic Wendy & Lisa. They should get props. Just like when the Rolling Stones did "Constant Crazing" by k.d. Lang in their song "Anybody Seen My Baby" from a few years back.



  58. 58

    Wow.. this is pure crap.. don't like it.. i get it but it's crap



  59. 59

    I think this song probably might be much more deeper and more meaningsful than you think at first listen. The video seems to talk about war and stuff, but it contradicts itself when Bono sings the line "you don't know how beautiful you are". It's hard to know if it's a anti-war song or a tribute to women. But the video was pretty cool, but I'm waiting for a better, fiercer U2 song, like they used to make them. U2 still rules! :D



  60. 60

    I totally get it. It's a song about empowering women. The message is for women to recognize how beautiful they are, the power they have and they need to get ON IT. This is my song for 2009 because I am ON MINE this year! I love Bono. I would love to turn him out.



  61. 61

    It's sad when the video is 100% better then the song. I'm a huge U2 fan and been since the mullet days but this song is shit. These guys may need to call it a day and stop releasing less then stellar songs just because they feel pressured to stay in the game. They should quit while they are ahead.



  62. 62

    love U2 hate this song! the hook is flat..i dont like it..i will still buy the cd..cuz bono is a fucking genius!



  63. 63

    Bono is still SEXY!



  64. 64

    I love this.



  65. 65

    I wish Bono and George Michael could hook up they would make such a cute couple? Come on now bono you know you are interested Admit It? Good luck Mr Music you are so talented?



  66. 66

    The songs grows on you some– :)



  67. 67

    really U2?



  68. 68

    Absolutely blows. Farewell U2.
