U2’s New Album

Post Published:


I got the new U2 album, No Line on the Horizon, at Target the other day, the 4th of March, 2009. I wanted to get it the day it came out, but didn’t, and because of the time we got home on the 4th and the way I felt the next day and the fact that we then went out again and didn’t get home until later, I hadn’t ripped the CD into my computer until this morning.

My hubby told me U2 would be on David Letterman all week as the band. I actually just haven’t been up at night that late, but did wake up to the end of David Letterman on our bedroom TV the other night, and it was almost over, and there was U2 all ready to start playing a song … and it peeked my interest and so I stayed awake and found the remote and hit “record” (DirecTivo) as the song started playing. It was incredible and I have finally started listening to the album and it was that song from DL the other night that is the second song on the album, “Magnificent” and it is so very good. I love that song. It’s the only one I have heard them do from the album, the only thing of them I saw on David Letterman.

I would have listened to this CD in the vehicle right away, but our vehicle’s CD player is broken (we bought our 2005 Suburban used and it had a CD stuck in the drive, and we just haven’t been able to figure out what we want to do about it, replace it with the exact same factory install, what the Chevy dealers say is our only option with them; or get something else installed from the aftermarket.) FWIW.

Most of my U2 collection is on vinyl. This album is the 3rd on CD that I have. I haven’t gotten everything of theirs from this more modern era … but I probably will go back and find it at CD Warehouse, and get the stuff I love from the 80’s on CD too.
