With the release of Songs of Experience December 1st, U2 has been all over the place promoting it. If you are not a U2 fan, it must be pretty annoying. But if you are a fan, well then, Merry Christmas! With an appearance on The Jimmy Kimmel Show to celebrate World Aids Day, SNL, and Howard Stern this past week, it seems like U2 is everywhere talking about their new album. And there is still more to look forward to! Next week the BBC special of U2 performing with an orchestra and choir at Abbey Roads Studio will air and they have already released a trailer of “All I Want Is You” (my wedding song). Just when you think U2 can’t sing this song any more intensely and movingly, they prove you wrong. See for yourself here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=un-rfEyPBO4
Also, the official video for “Get Out Of Your Own Way” is coming in the next few days and U2 has teamed up again with Omaze to offer a truly incredible experience to play Mini-Golf with the band. Last year they donated a few fabulous experiences such as a private concert and joining Bono and Julia Roberts for tea. While I did not win those, that doesn’t mean I am not going to try again! Here is what a donation to (RED) will help:
Every day 400 babies are born with HIV, but they don’t have to be. The life-saving pills that keep an HIV+ pregnant woman alive and healthy also prevents the virus from passing to her unborn baby. These pills cost as little as 30 cents a day in sub-Saharan Africa–that’s two lives saved for just 30 cents. When you donate to win a (RED) experience, you’re supporting (SHOPATHON) RED–the annual holiday campaign to raise awareness and money to help HIV+ moms get access to lifesaving medication, bringing us closer to a world where no baby is born with HIV. Let’s end AIDS.
