There's been no official announcement, but it seems almost certain that U2 will release their long-awaited 13th studio album sometime in 2014, possibly as early as April. They've been recording with producer Danger Mouse for a couple of years, and it seems like they are plotting a world tour right now with new manager Guy Oseary.

“Karma Chameleon”

Culture Club | 1983

Boy George has said this song was about standing by what you believe in. However, at the time, he was involved in a secret affair with Culture Club drummer Jon Moss. "Now people can understand the songs better," he said. "They were written about my relationship with Jon, and they were also written about being a gay man in a homophobic world." The lines "If I listen to your lies, would you say/I'm a man without conviction/I'm a man who doesn't know how to sell a contradiction," described his life at the time, he said. "I was selling this big lie."
