New U2 Album

I just got the new U2 album on Tuesday. It has already grown on me. I like it! Most of the songs are pretty 'chill'. I have to say, my least favorite song is "Get on your Boots". It's unfortunate that they released that one on the radio first.



"Magnificent" is my favorite on the new album (No Line on the Horizon).
This is a video of them singing it on Letterman the other night.

Here are the lyrics:

Magnificent
Oh, magnificent



I was born
I was born to be with you 


In this space and time

After that and ever after I haven't had a clue

Only to break rhyme
This foolishness can leave a heart Black and blue



Only love
Only love can leave such a mark

But only love
Only love can heal such a scar


I was born
I was born to sing for you 

I didn’t have a choice But to lift you up
And sing whatever song you wanted me to

I give you back my voice
From the womb my first cry
It was a joyful noise

Oh, oh

Only love
Only love can leave such a mark

But only love
Only love can heal such a scar


Justified till we die
You and I will magnify


Oh, the magnificent

Magnificent

Only love
Only love can leave such a mark

But only love
Only love unites our hearts



Justified till we die
You and I will magnify

Oh, the magnificent

Magnificent

Magnificent

-I would say this is a song of worship, what do you think?!

If you know me at all, you will know that U2 is my absolute favorite band ever. It's hard for me to find a song of theirs I don't like!

Rock on guys!
