U2 released a surprise six-track EP today called Days of Ash, no doubt to coincide with Ash Wednesday. The song "American Obituary" is about Renee Good. Bono said he started writing it the day after she was shot by ICE agent Jonathon Ross. The other songs on the EP deal with subjects like Ukraine and Gaza. U2 is planning to release an album later this year (their first since 2017), but these songs couldn't wait.

I am erasing every Springsteen and U2 song I ever downloaded on Napster.
That'll show them!
I'll download the Springsteen and U2 songs and play them over and over.
My taste for Springsteen and U2 is random. Like some. Don't like others. It's rarely their lyrics that I don't like. It's usually the music.
Read the lyrics. They're poignant.
