'Complete'
It's going to have words.
Lyrics that is.
The ones we know and the ones we're just getting used to… because they've been reimagined on Songs of Surrender.
It's going to have pictures. And drawings.
That we haven't seen before.
And stories.
That we haven't read.
It's going to be released in two volumes over the next two years.
It's 'U2: The Complete Lyrics' and Volume 1 of this bespoke publication, spanning the years 1979 to 1988, is our 2023 gift for subscribers of U2.com.
Volume II, covering 1991-2023, will follow, published for those who subscribe for 2024.
The band and their creative team are already pulling this one-off title together.
It's going to be the go-to lyrical source for any fan.
(This story for U2.com subscribers was amended on April 16 to reflect an update in the period each volume will cover)
