To do so, we brought on one of our close friends, and U2-expert, Ryan Nichols (<a href=\"https://twitter.com/ryannichols7\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">@ryannichols7</a>) to help us out. Approaching the band's history chronologically, we explore how U2 grew into the biggest band in the world, shifted in one of the most extreme manners for a mainstream Rock band, and has spent much of the last 20 years trying to figure out what's next. We also consider possible ways for U2 to reclaim the status of \"The World's Most Important Band.\"</p><p>Songs featured in this episode are: \"The Electric Co\" - Boy (1980), \"I Fall Down\" - October (1980), \"Drowning Man,\" - War (1983), \"Indian Summer Sky,\" - The Unforgettable Fire (1984), \"Red Hill Mining Town\" - The Joshua Tree (1987), \"Hawkmoon 269\" - Rattle &amp; Hum (1988), \"Zoo Station\" - Achtung Baby (1991), \"Dirty Day\" - Zooropa (1993).</p><p>Check us out on Spotify: <a href=\"https://open.spotify.com/user/daveg924/playlist/7pVgB1jEqrwmWzsTPzkwGj?si=Aru5yWruQWS014B-Iz4JOw\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Beyond The Pond Podcast Songs</a></p><p>You can find us on Twitter: <a href=\"https://twitter.com/_beyondthepond\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">@_beyondthepond</a></p><p>Medium: https://medium.com/beyond-the-pond</p><p>Please check out the Osiris Podcast Network at: OsirisPod.com // Go to Relix.com to learn more about Osiris, our sister podcasts, &amp; upcoming events!</p><p>Please leave us a review on iTunes!</p>","author_name":"Beyond The Pond/Osiris Media"}
