Rosalía Calls U2’s Tribute Song 'Insane' After Bono Invented Spanish Words

Rosalía reacted to U2’s upcoming album track 'The Mirror Maker (Rosalía)' by calling the collaboration 'insane' and 'mind-blowing.' She revealed that Bono texted her to verify specific Spanish words, including a non-existent term he wanted to use. After failing to find a definition, she told him to 'invent his own language.' The song is part of U2’s first new album in nine years, 'Carnaval de Luz,' which releases on November 13.

U2 Leadoff Singles, Ranked: The Fly Tops, Boots Trails

Rolling Stone ranks U2's leadoff singles from their albums, arguing the opener often sets the tone more than the album itself; from 'The Fly' (1991) at No. 1 to 'Get On Your Boots' (2009) at No. 15, the piece spotlights standout tracks like 'Desire,' 'Vertigo,' 'New Year’s Day,' 'Pride (In the Name of Love),' and 'With or Without You,' notes misfires such as 'Discothèque' and 'A Day Without Me,' and also mentions a forthcoming album’s leadoff single, 'Street of Dreams'.

U2 Drops Joyous Lead Single Street of Dreams Ahead of New Studio LP

U2 released Street of Dreams, the joyous lead single from an upcoming studio album (title TBD) produced by Jacknife Lee. The upbeat track follows a year that saw the release of two six-song EPs, Days of Ash and Easter Lily, and Bono has teased a noisy, unreasonably colorful LP for live shows. The video was shot in Mexico City during a rainstorm near a Street Child World Cup event; Larry Mullen Jr. rejoined the sessions after neck surgery for the project, which will mark the band’s 50th anniversary later this year, though no album title or tour plans have been announced.
