On a mission to unite U2 fans world-wide to determine the greatest U2 song of all time, two executive entrepreneurs and co-authors of U2itude, The Ultimate Handbook for U2 Fans, are raising money on indiegogo.com to build U2itude, the Ultimate Mobile App for U2 fans.

This revolutionary mobile app will let fans listen to – and rate every U2 song and connect fans around the world to share and compare scores and initiate passionate discussion within the U2 fan community.

‘What we learned from U2 fan feedback to our book was that there was a very active and vocal community of U2 fans who need a forum to rank and discuss U2 songs. We want to give U2 fans everywhere this forum, but as U2 fans know, sometimes you can’t make it on your own,’ said Chris Sorgie ‘Sorge’. ‘We are happy to announce that our fundraising campaign video is now posted on Indiegogo, giving us a unique platform to explain this App and seek support to make this dream a reality.’

For those who donate, rewards include use of the app prior to the official release, autographed copies of U2itude, the Ultimate Handbook for U2 fans, U2itude T-shirts and towels and an exclusive invitation to the U2itude launch party.

U2itude is a revolutionary mobile app that will let fans listen-to and rate every U2 song on five specific criteria: Music, Lyrics, Message, Energy and U2itude. Once rated, U2itude will connect you with other fans around the world to share scores and engage in discussions with this enthusiastic fan community. The App includes unique playlists like U2 Anthems, will feature over 25 playlists and U2 fans will be able to create their own adding them to the U2itude collection.
