U2 is wreaking havoc with search engines

“No Line On The Horizon” is the title of the new U2 CD. (Why do we care? Really. Why do we care? We’re not big U2 fans here at SHECKYmagazine.com HQ. The Male Half saw them live at the Tower, probably at a show to support the release of “War,” but he hasn’t cared a whit about them since.)

We care because of the title of track 7:

1. “No Line On The Horizon”
2. “Magnificent”
3. “Moment of Surrender”
4. “Unknown Caller”
5. “I’lll Go Crazy If I Don’t Go Crazy Tonight”
6. “Get On Your Boots”
7. “Stand Up Comedy”
8. “Fez– Being Born”
9. “White As Snow”
10. “Breathe”
11. “Cedars Of Lebanon”

For a few days we were fearful that the CD would be called Stand Up Comedy– Oh, what havoc that would cause with folks searching for decent information on the WWW relating to standup comedy! Trust us, anything U2-related would swamp anything else on the web. It’s the demographic.

Perhaps that’s why they named their last CD “How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb.” Perhaps they wanted to suppress information about nuclear devices and the people who might stop them from detonating.
