Song of the Week - Turn Off the Dark

Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark - Rise Above (peformed on Late Night with David Letterman)
(written by Bono and The Edge)

The events surrounding the world's most expensive broadway show in history has been well documented. Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark has cost over $65 Million dollars and has been delayed many times over. Director Julie Taylor has recently been relieved of her duties as the producers try to revamp the show again for an early summer release. The show's initial debut was supposed to be this past week (after initial delays), but poor reviews and multiple safety concerns involving the set have made Spider-Man more of a news piece in it's problems rather than its successes.

Despite all this, the only piece of the set not subject to injuries are the songs, written and composed by Bono and The Edge of U2. While some of the music has been criticized by some critics, the music has that U2 feel despite Bono himself not singing.

Here's another song from the performance: Boy Falls From the Sky.
