U2: Ordinary Love

The band had written a song specifically for the film Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom. The band had taken time off from recording their infamous 2014 album Songs of Innocence to do so. The band was invited to write the song by movie producer Harvey Weinstein who was previously involved in the 2002 film Gangs of New York, which U2 also wrote the song "The Hands That Built America" for. Both songs resulted in Academy Award nominations and Golden Globe wins for U2.
