Bono apologizes for U2 iCloud album no one wanted (VIDEO)

Bono has apologized for Songs of Innocence, U2's latest album which Apple and the band released for free during the iPhone 6 launch last month. He gave the apology during a Facebook Q&A session on October 14, 2014.

A fan asked: "Can you please never release an album on iTunes that automatically downloads to people's playlists ever again? It's really rude."

Bono responded: "Oops ... I'm sorry about that. I had this beautiful idea. Might have gotten carried away with ourselves. Artists are prone to that thing. A drop of megalomania, a touch of generosity, a dash of self-promotion, and deep fear that these songs that we poured our life into over the last few years might not be heard. There's a lot of noise out there. I guess, we got a little noisy ourselves to get through it."
