U2’s Bono  described that U2 latest album ‘No Line on the Horizon’ is a big fat rock album, but you will find a track that  very quite and intimate called ‘White As Snow’. The lyrics tells about soldier and the melody is based on an old hymn.

The idea of a song based on the dying thoughts of a soldier initially came to Bono after he read William Golding’s ambitious novel, Pincher Martin, which is told from the point of view of a British sailor who appears to have survived the torpedoing of his ship. As he approaches death, his thoughts roam back over his life, and the moral choices he made or avoided. (The novel’s denouement, though, suggests that the soldier died at the moment his ship went down and that the preceding narrative recounts his soul’s struggle to stay in the material world.)

There is a good news for U2 fans, as the supergroup will release its new album ‘No Line On The Horizon’ on March 3rd next year. The album has been recorded in four different places including Morocco, New York, Ireland and London.

U2 released their last album, ‘How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb’, in 2004. It sold over $9 million copies.
