(NME) U2 pushed back the release of their new album from late 2008 to next year because the record needed two more songs, according to the boss of their label.Interscope-Geffen-A&M chairman Jimmy Iovine says he met with the band, who told him the album was two songs short, so the release date was adjusted to give them time to work on those tracks.
"I met with the guys in U2, and they say to me, 'You know what? This album needs two more songs, and it will be exactly what we have in mind.' I go there and I listen, and I agreed with them." - more on this story
