I agree. SOE showed live its energy as well as its intensity. It’s the best album the guys made in this century 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Subscriber dmway 1,897 Posted November 27, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted November 27, 2018 Slightly off-topic, but, since the e&i tour was in support of this album, I’m going to post this here instead of the live thread that this subject first appeared in. I want to tip my hat 🎩 to the U2.com shop for delivering the item that I ordered from the leftovers from the European tour so quickly! Despite its being shipped from the UK, I got it today - I was expecting it to take another week. (They actually sent it International Priority, but didn’t fleece me for the costs of the shipping when I ordered it - a nice change from the past!) I don’t know how much more is left in the store from the European goodies, but, if you ordered something/will order something, it may end up arriving faster than usual. OK - back to the regular service of praising SOE. 👍 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I’m glad you got the ball rolling! 😎 Happy 1st Birthday/Anniversary, Songs of Experience! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Subscriber peterferris8 585 Posted December 1, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted December 1, 2018 Happy 1st anniversary to an album that's already shot into my top 5 U2 albums. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Community Moderator mich40 2,365 Posted December 2, 2018 Community Moderator Share Posted December 2, 2018 I still can’t get over how much this album (and tour) grabbed me. Usually after a tour, I’ll put away an album for a rest for a while. Still haven’t been able to do that with this one. Still in heavy rotation. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Subscriber peterferris8 585 Posted December 2, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted December 2, 2018 Honestly, I feel like this album has been an essential piece of the puzzle that is the last year of my life. I'm still holding out hope that The Little Things comes back into the set on future tours! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Subscriber peterferris8 585 Posted December 2, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted December 2, 2018 Oh yeah, and I'm just gonna bring this back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Subscriber Manohlive 2,215 Posted December 2, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted December 2, 2018 (edited) I thought Dec 11th was the official release of SOE. I now see it was yesterday. Did EI tickets go on sale December 11? If not, perhaps it's the date I realized how incredible SOE is from start to finish. I have the cd I got from buying tickets, plus the bonus one. They play, one after the other, off my system.. Lately, I've been in the other room packing stuff and letting SOE play the second time without realizing it. I eventually notice and think I should hear something else. That is usually when Bono sings, :"When you look so good". Almost every time that line makes me realize I'm into the second listen. I've been letting it play and listening to both as though I never heard the first. It's a remarkable album. It's also remarkably fun to dance to it. It's hard to believe we are on first anniversaries of SOE/EI.. This will always be a very special marking point of my life. Happy second year of life to Songs of Experience.
