I should mention first that my username, "melon," comes from a U2 fan club mix album of the same name.
So far, I think it is much much better than their last album, which was solid but boring, IMO. It's much harder to pick a "favorite" in this album, because I like a lot of them quite a bit! "Beautiful Day" was my clear favorite in their last, but I think if I had to pick just one, I would pick "Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own," although I really like "Miracle Drug," "City of Blinding Lights," and "Original of the Species," as well!
I ended up buying the "Collector's Edition" with a CD, DVD, and 48-page book in fancy, DVD video size packaging. And I guess that since we're talking about this in a computer forum, I'm wondering if some countries' versions of this album have copy protection? It appears that the U.S. version doesn't.
Yeah...I'm not a big fan of the album title either. Seems a bit too "clever" for my tastes. Overall, though, a very enjoyable album!
