Soon...

Sing yourself on down the street
Sing yourself right off your feet
Sing yourself away from victory and from defeat
Sing yourself with fife and drum
Sing yourself to overcome
The thought that someone's lost
And someone else has won

I thought this tune was called "Kingdom". All through the 360 Tour this would play and people referred to this "Kingdom". In any case, its a grrreat tune. Cannot wait for the next album. Also, i think its interesting how we all use "Achtung Baby" as the yardstick of how great this or any next album can / will be!

@saba223 It was known as Kingdom for the duration of the 360 Tour, on printed setlists etc. However, U2 released it the other day on a 7" vinyl with the super-deluxe edition of the Rose Bowl DVD/Blu Ray set, and it is clearly labeled as "Soon" there. U2 changed its name somewhere in the process, evidently.

I agree, it's an awesome song!

oh yes and U2 DID WRITE MIAMI so for the Miami spammer GET OVER YOURSELF!

Great tune. It's got a very cinematic sound to it. I wish it was longer though!

I'm upset that this no longer follows Space Oddity to open 360 shows. I get goosebumps just listening to it here, imagine in the stadium :O!!

[TotoSoloRock]

[120TOMTOM]

Is this on iTunes?

[dtpc191991]

Hell I'd like to see them actually play this live properly. If you listen to edges guitar at thend theirs a bit of the TUF era in that sound.
