Ordinary Love, a new song written for the upcoming movie
Mandela: Long Walk To Freedom, will be released in a 10-inch vinyl pressing to mark
Record Store Day on November 29th. (UK and Ireland release, Monday December 2nd -
participating stores here)
The sleeve artwork features a striking painting of Nelson Mandela by Irish artist and illustrator Oliver Jeffers. Oliver, along with Mac Premo, has also directed a lyric video for Ordinary Love which we'll carry on U2.com during November.
The band wrote the new song at the
invitation of movie producer Harvey Weinstein and the b-side of the Record Store Day release will feature a second track, Breathe (Mandela Version).
We'll have copies of the vinyl release up for grabs in a competition next month.
Stay tuned...
