U2 may drum up support as voters call Clinton’s tune

TWO U2 songs are among the front-runners to be to be used as the campaign music for Hillary Clinton’s upcoming presidential battle, she has announced.

In a tongue-in-cheek message on her website, the Democratic presidential front-runner implored Americans to help her on a decision her team had been “struggling with, debating and agonising over for months”.

Clinton offered fans a list of songs to choose from, in a Eurovision-style online vote for a favourite, including U2’s City of Blinding Lights and Beautiful Day, and Ready to Run by the Dixie Chicks. Voters could also add their own alternative candidate song.
