FUSE TV - 5 Insights Into U2's New Album 'Songs of Innocence'

At today's iPhone 6 and Apple Watch launch, U2 made history by delivering their new album Songs of Innocence to 500 million iTunes users for free. You can play any selection from the track list and hear that this record is one of the rock band's most personal yet.

In an interview with Rolling Stone, Bono was candid about the people who made a mark on the album in both a literal (Danger MouseRyan Tedder) and figurative (The Clash, The Ramones, Bono's mother) sense. Here are 5 insights on the album gleaned from that interview.
