Songs Of Surrender is a collection of U2's 16 greatest hits. The album includes the singles 'With Or Without You' and 'Beautiful Day'. This is the 2 x 12'' 180g Heavyweight Transparent Green 2LP and 4-page Insert Feat. Liner of The Edge version of Songs Of Surrender.
Songs Of Surrender was composed and produced by The Edge. On this album, the band went to work with songs from their more than 40-year career, including 'With Or Without You', 'One', 'Beautiful Day', 'Sunday Bloody Sunday' and 'Invisible', for a musical reinvention that results in a completely new recording of each song, including the arrangements and, in some cases, new lyrics.
The Edge said of the project: "Music allows you to travel through time, and we became curious to find out what it would be like to take our early songs back to the present . What started as an experiment soon developed into a personal obsession as so many of our songs succumbed to a new interpretation. Intimacy replaced the urgency of post-punk. There came new tempos, new keys and, in some cases, new chords and new lyrics."
