New music from U2 has been revealed, with Bono and co's first material in three years appearing in the trailer for new Nelson Mandela biopic, Long Walk To Freedom. See the trailer featuring 'Ordinary Love' below.
'Ordinary Love' was writting specifically for the film, starring the awesome walking giant of a legend that is Idris Elba in the lead. But yeah, the track is typically cinematic in its stadium-filling, fist-pumping anthemics, and is sure to please Bono's golf buddy Mandela as a fitting tribute.
Even if you don't like U2, watch the trailer just to check out Idris Elba being an absolute hero.

Meanwhile, U2 bassist Adam Clayton recently told Irish radio station 98 FM that were progressing well with more ew material - with a new album nearly finished.
“We’re in the studio. We’re trying to get these 12 songs absolutely right and get them finished by the end of November, and then we can kind of enjoy Christmas."
Talking about the sound of the new album, Claton said: “It's a bit of a return to U2 of old, but with the maturity, if you like, of the U2 of the last 10 years. It’s a combination of those two things and it’s a really interesting hybrid.”
