Songs of Experience was released on 1 December 2017. Lyrically, the album reflects the “political and personal apocalypse” that Bono felt in 2016. The first single, ” You’re the Best Thing About Me “, is one of several songs from the record for which Bono wrote the lyrics as letters addressed to people and places closest to his heart. Songs of Experience received mixed reviews from critics; it was the sixth-best-selling album globally in 2017 with 1.3 million copies sold.
