New U2 tracks leakage


Bono, U2 rock lord, has been stung by a cheeky holidaymaker who overheard the singer last week. He was playing tracks from the Irish band’s eagerly awaited new release.

The fan couldn’t believe it as he strolled along the beach by Bono’s palatial villa in the South of France when he heard that famous voice thundering out the windows.

And the savvy passerby was sharp enough to record what he heard then race home to stick the clips on YouTube. (SHAME!!!MY opinion!!!)
The band have recently put the finishing touches to their first studio album in four years. (CAN´T WAIT!!!)

Universal Music Group, which owns the band’s Interscope label, have registered the domain name No Line On The Horizon — suggesting that will be the CD title. Four songs have been posted including the title track and Sexy Boots, which will be the first single. The other two leaked tracks are thought to be called Moment Of Surrender and For Your Love.


Super producer and long-time U2 collaborator DANIEL LANOIS, who has produced the album with BRIAN ENO, reckons it’s the best he has ever recorded with the band.
He said: “I think we can safely say it’s one of the great, innovative records from U2. Bono’s in great form, singing fantastic.”


The names of several other tracks on the album have also been leaked and include Love Is All We Have Left, One Bird, If I Could Live My Life Again and The Cedars of Lebanon.


I wonder if If I Could Live My Life Again is based on the famous poem by the great Argentinian poet Jorge Luis Borges as once I read...


Don´t run to YouTube, the audio has luckily been disabled by the owner!
