U2 formed in 1976 when Larry Mullen Jr., the band’s future drummer, posted a note on his school bulletin board.
Forty-seven years, seventy singles and fourteen studio albums later, U2 has become one of the most successful rock bands of all time, still producing music and touring the world with the same line-up since the 1970s.
In this book, the reader is guided through each release, song by song, from the band’s first album Boy (1980) until the single ‘Your Song Saved My Life’, released in 2021. Everyone knows U2’s biggest hits—songs like ‘With or Without You’, ‘One’ and ‘Beautiful Day’—but few have closely examined all of the songs, including B-sides, compilation tracks and lesser-known album tracks.
