What Makes U2 Beautiful

U2 are apparently working with the songwriter behind some of One Direction's biggest hits.

The Irish rockers are in talks with Swedish songwriter and producer Carl Falk to help them shape their upcoming thirteenth studio album.

"There's a long way to go, but we are doing something with U2," Falk told The Sun newspaper.

U2 have also reportedly also tapped up Jay-Z producer and Cee Lo Green’s Gnarls Barkley co-collaborator, Danger Mouse, and Lady Gaga and Cher Lloyd producer, RedOne for the follow-up to 2009’s No Line On The Horizon.

"We have to focus on what we do best, and the work we did with Danger Mouse came closest to that,” bassist Adam Clayton told US magazine Rolling Stone. “We want to be in the clubs and make pop music as well as the thing U2 does.”
