U2's long-awaited 13th studio album, "Songs of Innocence," is being gifted to iTunes Music Store customers starting today.
Seriously. If you don't believe it, check your "purchased" bank because it will be in there.
For non-Apple conformists, “Songs of Innocence” will be released Oct. 14 (it will remain an iTunes exclusive until then). Also, anyone who signs up for iTunes in the next five weeks will receive the album for free as well.
A deluxe version of the release is still to come, which will contain an acoustic session of select songs from the album, plus four additional tracks (“Lucifer’s Hands,” “The Crystal Ballroom,” “The Troubles” and a remix of “Sleeps Like a Baby Tonight”).
The band performed the new song, “The Miracle (of Joey Ramone)” at Apple’s unveiling event today.
Other songs on the album are:
“Every Breaking Wave”
“California (There Is No End To Love)”
“Song For Someone”
“Iris (Hold Me Close)”
“Volcano”
“Raised By Wolves”
“Cedarwood Road”
“Sleep Like A Baby Tonight”
“This Is Where You Can Reach Me Now”
“The Troubles”
“Songs of Innocence” was recorded in Dublin, London, New York and Los Angeles and shares a producer lineup of Danger Mouse, Paul Epworth, Ryan Tedder, Declan Gaffney and Flood.
