Confirmed: U2's 'North Star' Appears In Transformers Movie
@U2,
June 27, 2011
We can confirm one of the rumors that's been going around over the past couple weeks: U2's "North Star," a new song that debuted last year during the U2 360 tour, appears in the new film, Transformers: Dark of the Moon. @U2 reader Andreas K. saw a screening of the film today (Monday), and tells us that the song can be heard twice in the first half hour of the film for about a minute. Andreas says it has "a great guitar solo" and compared it to the version that U2 played last year on tour: It was the same tune, the same melody but it had a rich production. It wasn't unplugged. It had a mellow piano and violins. I could say that it sounded like "Winter" from the Brothers movie -- they could be heard back-to-back in a new album. I must say that it sounds like such a great song, a big and touching ballad. "North Star" doesn't appear on the officially released Transformers soundtrack, just in the film. Transformers: Dark of the Moon is released later this week, on June 29th.
