As U2 continues their conquest of unknown lands (Turkey) and Europe, they recently have made a new addition in the family of U2 songs! Mercy made its first time debut ever in Zurich, Switzerland on September 18, 2010. Mercy was originally composed during the How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb sessions, and a studio recording was downloadable on iTunes with the purchase of the Complete U2 compilation. So far, Mercy has made the setlist of two other shows, Munich and Paris, and was sound-checked for the first time back at Istanbul's concert.
In other news, rumors are floating around on a re-release of a remastered Achtung Baby. It was obviously inevitable since they seem to be remastering all their old work; I'm not sure what they're going to do when they get to All That You Can't Leave Behind because the sound already seems to be mastered...
The rumor going around was let out by a tweet from music producer John Vanderslice, saying how the next room was being occupied by people remastering of the album. Hopefully there will be some cool stuff released with it, like a plush trabant or something...
