Today's playlist jumping led us to this 6:54 mini-documentary from U2 in America. On the 'Rock This' playlist, this video was the third track down.

Hopefully this is available in your country too – U2 sure knows how to get the goosebumps rolling: "let's not agonise, let's organise" Bono says on today's current political climate. It's worth watching if you can find it.

The "This is: U2" playlist has some more videos for the hardcores out there. 

Our guess is this strategy will lead to a warmer response to "Songs of Experience" than "Songs of Innocence" received after the putting-it-on-everybody's-iPhones debacle (even though that actually massively increased their backlog sales). Sorry Apple.

Interestingly their eXPERIENCE + iNNOCENCE tour has already been going since 2014, or since Songs of Innocence came out and has 24 dates announced for 2018 already. 

The tour has already sold 1,286,416 tickets, and if history is anything to go by, it's not unlikely it will become one of the highest grossing tours of 2018.
