2010 World Cup as ESPN picks U2 for promos

As we reported before U2 has been choosen for the world cup commericals. Whats interesting not that the boys where choosen, the songs selected. Its the fact the the Irish will not be going to the world cup.  Karma ? Who knows, Henry ( player) did not do his part to insure the team a spot this time around.

U2 has ads are already on the air and the ads which will run through the World Cup itself will feature footage from U2’s Pasadena concert.We have posted a couple of them.

The five songs are:
“Where the Streets Have No Name” (with the Soweto Gospel Choir)
“Magnificent”).
“Out of Control” - weyhey! You rarely hear this song on the radio anymore
“Desire”
“City of Blinding Lights.”
