25 December, 2017 New album is stunningly phenomenal.
This album is one big, warm, loving embrace...AND one HUGE (; )) honest, vulnerable assessment of this moment in time...AND all of this makes it one for the ages...TIMELESS INSTANT CLASSIC.

13 September, 2017 Sci-Fi Soul Mix version
Please release the Sci-Fi Soul Mix version for sale of You're the best thing about me....!! It's next level AWESOME... Hoping the album is a double up. A standard version and a Sci-Fi Soul Mix version of every song.... That's the U2 that reinvents album releases!!! If you haven't heard it yet track it down... Sooooo good....

12 September, 2017 Sneak attack
I love that some U2 songs sneak up on you like an unannounced afternoon tryst........then you long for them more than when you first heard them.

Love the cover, really addicted to “Your the best thing” just makes me want to dance. Black out is also excellent... keep the songs coming!!!

09 September, 2017 A slow, but bright-hot burn
I have to admit, I was a little non-plussed when I first heard this song - especially on the heels of Blackout, which has such a much more "rock anthem/in your face" feel; but this one has REALLY grown on me over the past week, to where it's a little on auto-play in my head! :-) I'm enjoying it more and more. Really looking forward to hearing more of the new stuff. . . and - of course - looking for tour info to see it all live!! Let's hope album is no later than the previously floated date of Dec.1!!

09 September, 2017 Playing it SAFE.
I'm a devoted U2 fan and will be forever. U2 are my number one band and always will be. This new single is so safe it drives me mad. I love it, but it still seems way too clever and safe... I miss the U2 that followed Rattle & Hum with Achtung Baby, Then followed that with Zooropa.... Then followed that with POP... WOW! After that amazing exploration resulting in 3 epic albums they produce All You Can't Leave Behind that must stand as one of the most complete albums of all time... This was a band that didn't play it safe, they took a leap, after a leap, after a leap... This single plays like a desire for radio play and popularity, not a going out on a ledge moment...
Looking forward to the rest of the album.
Hoping they start rolling the dice rather than fearing the failure....

Great production. When the chorus comes in, it's like a breath of fresh air. Larry sounds fantastic on it and really clear. Could be the freshest sounding U2 album in years. The verse and the rhythms make me want to dance and the chorus swings. Love Edge singing after my favourite part of the song, which is the instrumental with the disco groove. Thanks for the music...

08 September, 2017 favourite bit
the guitars before Edge's lyric are great. Killers-esque
omnivox
08 September, 2017 Indeed
Can't get this song out of my head. The rhythm boys really nailed it on this one (has some groove). It moves and progresses. The lyrics are poetic. All in all it is an uplifting tune that I can dig.

08 September, 2017 The Best Thing about U2
So Exciting by this uplifting song!!! I wasn't waiting much from a song 1 year old, but this version is so funky!!!
Adam Clayton shines on "The Best Thing" et "The Blackout", he's so groovy on both songs.
The beginning of "The Best Thing" reminds me the beginning of "Electrical Storm".
I can also hear a lots of David Bowie all along.
Their's a lot of experiment in here, but it's subtile. The Edge reinvents himself once again.

I am waiting for you in LIVE in Paris.

08 September, 2017 oh no, radio friendly
Round and round "youuu're the best thing..." Bono, I wouldn't believe you have nothing to say. It is single for single use. I hope next songs will be much better.

07 September, 2017 Amazing,
They were incredible on Jimmy, thank you from the bottom of my heart. This is why I've always loved you guys, you give your all no matter what. It looks like the current tour is going to keep going, was thinking we might have to wait for the new one. Either way I'm checking every day, would love to see you in Cleveland again. Thanks for the last 37 years and my 14th show. Can't wait for number 15.
Feedback
07 September, 2017 Love it!
The boys are in form. Songs of Innocence was great from start to finish. Songs of Experience looks headed to be the same way. U2.....reclaiming their rightful title of the BEST band in the World. Not that there was ANY doubt!
