Plus, playlists for Halloween. [View this email online]( [NPR Music]( Oct. 29, 2022 by [Marissa Lorusso]( This week, we're sharing an interview with Bono about his new book; plus, playlists for Halloween. [Bono with 'Morning Edition' co-host Rachel Martin.]( Nickolai Hammar After 40 years of selling out arenas as a musician and working to eradicate hunger and AIDS as an activist — as well as being a father and a husband — Bono is releasing a memoir. The book is called Surrender: 40 Songs, One Story, and it comes out next week. Ahead of its release, the U2 frontman sat down with Morning Edition for a [wide-ranging conversation]( about the making of the book, plus the singer’s faith, his relationship with his father and the “search for the extraordinary” in his life. The book’s title, Bono says, is not about giving up. "I'm trying to make peace with myself, I'm trying to make peace with my maker, but I am not trying to make peace with the world,” Bono told Morning Edition host Rachel Martin. “The world is a deeply unfair place, and I'm ready to rumble." You can read [highlights of their conversation]( and [listen to the radio story]( the Morning Edition team also shared a longer cut of the conversation in a [video on YouTube](. --------------------------------------------------------------- Newsletter continues after sponsor message --------------------------------------------------------------- More to read, watch and hear - Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, has been making headlines in the past few weeks for a series of controversial and offensive actions, including wearing a T-shirt with the phrase “White Lives Matter,” generating a [potential lawsuit against him]( from the family of George Floyd and making a series of antisemitic remarks. This week, [fashion house Balenciaga]( with whom the rapper had collaborated in the past, cut ties with Ye, as did [Adidas]( with whom he had had a decade-long partnership. He was also escorted out of the [offices of Skechers]( after making an unannounced visit. - Our friends at Pop Culture Happy Hour featured roundtable conversations about two new pop albums this week: [Carly Rae Jepsen]( breezy and sweet The Loneliest Time, and [Taylor Swift]( introspective Midnights. - This week on the [NPR Classical]( playlist: Classical music moves over to the dark side in honor of Halloween. Visit a “Town that Will Burn,” climb the “Devil’s Staircase” and beckon “Sweet Death” to come hither. Oh, and don’t slip on the “Blood on the Floor.” All Songs Considered also featured a selection of [Halloween-ready songs]( including a new collaboration between Andrew Bird and Phoebe Bridgers. - This week, WNRN shared a video of Emily Haines and James Shaw of Metric performing "[All Comes Crashing]( in front of a live studio audience at In Your Ear Studios in Richmond, Va. Tiny Desk [S.G. Goodman at the Tiny Desk]( NPR Several members of the NPR Music team have had S.G. Goodman’s incredible album Teeth Marks on repeat all year. So it was a treat when the Kentucky singer-songwriter stopped by to perform a Tiny Desk, playing songs that — as my colleague Ann Powers put it — show how music “is a route to both [survival and transcendence]( Also this week: We shared a Tiny Desk from the vocal ensemble [The Crossing]( also known as "America's most astonishing choir,” and a set from Bay Area [rapper Symba](.
