Free Music Notes for U218 Singles [CD/DVD Combo]

Free Music Review: A bit of heaven falling from U2's Windows in the Skies...
Hit: 5 Stars

The listener is captured by the essence of U2 in some of their finest songs ever recorded. In turn I believe each listener will be caught up in the essence of all that U2 (and Bono especially) encapsulates within and exudes without through the enchanting lyrics and the all-time connection with their listeners. One lover to another, we as artists ourselves appreciate the beauty that is the poetry of... U2.

The new tracks "Saints Are Coming" - Green Day, U2, and "Window in the Skies" are brilliant additions to the already spot on line up of U2 favourites included. As for the live tracks, not a single performer or group of performers can equal the powerful presence that Bono, The Edge, Larry and Adam bring to the stage. Even recorded live performances by U2 bring you to another realm and you find that you lose yourself in a world where you are the sole member of the audience who has been pulled onstage to accompany The Boys from Ireland in their glorious moments of superstardom.

Although I have the Complete U2 Collection from iTunes (with over 400 songs and digital book) as well as a full collection of their other albums and most of their books,,, I was desperate to secure yet another piece of U2's history. The added benefit is that the proceeds from the sale of this album benefit "Music Rising", the charitable organisation that The Edge has established to help the musicians that are victims of Hurricane Katrina.

I can, without a doubt, assure you that U2 is THE greatest rock band in the WORLD!

U218 Singles [CD/DVD Combo] Poster

Limited Edition two disc (CD + PAL/Region 0 DVD) pressing of the Irish superstars' 2006 compilation that features many of their biggest hits plus two new tracks: a cover of The Skids' 'The Saints Are Coming' performed with Green Day and Window In The Skies. Includes a bonus DVD includes a bonus live disc, featuring tracks performed on Vertigo Tour in Milan last year. Both new tracks were overseen by Rick Rubin and recorded at the legendary Abbey Road studios in England. 18 tracks total including 'One', 'Sunday Bloody Sunday', 'Desire', 'Beautiful', 'I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For', 'New Years Day' and more. Mercury.
Whittling down the back catalog of one of the most popular and respected bands of the last quarter-century to a single-disc collection is bound to inspire argument and dissent from the fans and faithful over what is included--and all that gets left behind--and U2's 26-year career is as celebrated and beloved as any band of their generation. U218 Singles doesn't try to please everyone, wisely sticking to the acknowledged high points (and there are many) between 1983's War and 2004's How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb. Nitpickers may quibble that the collection leans too heavily on the band's most popular albums and skips the (admirable if less anthemic) techno-pop tangents of Zooropa and Pop and the earnest energy of the Boy/October years, but the musical majesty accumulated here testifies to the undeniable power and emotion U2 can muster in a four-minute pop song. Two new Rick Rubin-produced tracks don't break new ground for the band, but both would fit snugly somewhere in the U2 canon--"Window in the Skies" is pure late-period arena rock with a typically towering falsetto chorus, while Green Day helps inject some October-era urgency into "The Saints Are Coming". The sum of these 18 tracks is a first-rate primer, perfect for that 10-year-old niece or nephew who thinks U2's big break was that iPod commercial. --Ben Heege
