I don't think it's a 'brilliant' u2 song, because u2 have their bar set very very high. But yes, GOYB has grown on me so much!

The three sunrises SUNSHINEEEEE

^^ Exactly. Musically, they were top notch, even if their music was pop-ish. They WERE a pop band. They're influential, very much, but not the best bandever or anything like that. That said, I don't think sales reflect awesomeness of any musical group/artist. I myself am more of a U2 fan than a beatlesfan.

I owe it to you!

Well, Bono has already revealed that U2 is going to release another album by the end of the year, on the theme of pilgrimage. http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2009/feb/15/u2-no-line-on-the-horizon Scroll REALLY down, and look the lines just before the SPEED DIAL bit.

I guess you're forgiven. I too downloaded it cuz I couldn't wait, but I will buy my physical copy when it becomes available!
