Description

U2 12" EP WIDE AWAKE IN EUROPE

MEGA RARE RECORD FROM U2 LIMITED TO 5000 Copies

YOUR COPY WILL BE BRAND NEW, NEVER PLAYED, AND MINT

I bought several of these the week they came out, and am also selling a lower numbered copy, #114 in another auction.

The live versions of "Mercy," and "Moment of Surrender" are not available on CD.

"Mercy" is not available on any other U2 release or any other media.

If only 5,000 of these were made, why are there numbers well past 6,000?

This explanation was given from a link from U2.com:

"During the manufacturing process, some jackets get damaged during the numbering process. These jackets are destroyed, but we do not go back and re-set the numbering machine for each damaged jacket. We simply run numbers past 5,000. If we didn’t do this, we would end up with much less than 5,000 total units."

Side A features the never before released song "Mercy", recorded in Brussels on 9/22/10. Side B features "I'll Go Crazy If I Don't Go Crazy Tonight", recorded in Dublin on 7/27/09, and a live version of "Moment Of Surrender", recorded in Paris on 9/18/10. The live version of “Crazy” was previously released on the 2009 U2.com member-exclusive remix album "Artificial Horizon."

Shipping with insurance will be $9 in the USA only. It will not be $4 as listed. International Buyers: please send me a message before bidding. I will simply cancel the sale if there is no communication for a possible international sale. International Shipping with insurance is usually around $40 or more where I ship, so it may simply not be worth it to you.
