Background Information
We are still sorting out some of the details of this release.
It appears that in most of Europe the version being played on radio is the longer, album version of the song, with plays in France, UK, Netherlands and Switzerland. It is the longer version of the track which is being played on BBC. On November 2, 2024, U2 X-Radio on SiriusXM added “Happiness” to their playlists, and they are using the longer version of the song. (The song had debuted on SiriusXM’s Pop Rocks station the prior day.)
A shorter radio edit has also been circulated to at least some countries in Europe on the day of release, and has been played on stations in Poland, Italy and some smaller stations in the UK and France. To date, there appears to have been no release for North America.
