Review: new u2 album "Songs of Innocence", and Calvin Harris' new album

Recently, U2 released their new album "Songs of Innocence" via Itunes download. But, RSG had to buy the cd due to no Itunes account. The quartet from Ireland has produced another great album, as ten of the eleven tracks are spectacular. The album has great ballads, like "Every Breaking Wave" and "The Miracle of Joey Ramone." Also, the song "Iris (Hold Me Close)" sounds like another version of "Ultraviolet"; another popular U2 track from the "Achtung Baby" album. Ryan Tedder produced a handful of the tracks, and he is the lead singer of "One Republic." U2's latest album is better than "no line on the horizon", the group's last album released in 2009. In addition to u2's new album, RSG is looking forward to some new tracks from Calvin Harris. This EDM DJ is one of the best DJ's in the world. His new album titled "Motion" will be released November 2014. Three of the best songs on the album are: 1. Summer, 2. Blame, and 3. Under Control. "Summer" was released in the summer 2014, while "Blame" is Calvin's latest song hitting radio stations across the U.S. Wonder if Calvin's new album will have success similar to his last album, "18 Months." That album had produced more than five hit singles for the UK DJ. Finally, if you want to see Calvin Harris perform, you will pay $75 or more per ticket. The DJ is a regular performer in Las Vegas, London, and other U.K. venues.

HP, and Symantec to split up

In recent news, HP will be splitting up into two different entities. One company will focus on the computer and printer operations unit, and it will be HP Inc. The other company, HP Enterprise, will focus on software and cloud based computing services. The main question is which company will be the more prosperous? The split initiated by CEO, Meg Whitman, should have happened in 2011 (or earlier). In addition to HP's recent split, Symantec will do the same by splitting up into two companies. The two public traded companies will be: 1. Cybersecurity software, and 2. Storage and backup. Cisco Systems and NetApp may show interest in buying the two surviving Symantec corporations. Since 2012, the company has fired two CEOs. Poor financial performance, and other management mishaps have led to the terminations. Finally, EBay is going to split off Paypal. EBay and Paypal will be two companies operating, in two different industries. One for online auctions, and the other company will focus on online money transfers. In 2014, there have been more than 60 spin-offs announced. Which major corporation could be the next to spin-off? Microsoft does come to mind. For now, hope Meg Whitman and HP are successful in their spinoff.
