The song was released as the album's lead single on 19 January 2009, with a physical release on 14 February.

No Line on the Horizon is the twelfth studio album by Irish rock band U2. It was produced by Brian Eno, Daniel Lanois, and Steve Lillywhite, and was released on 27 February 2009. It was the band's first record since How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb (2004), marking the longest gap between studio albums of their career to that point. The band originally intended to release the songs as two EPs, but later combined the material into a single record. Photographer Anton Corbijn shot a companion film, Linear, which was released alongside the album and included with several special editions.

For two weeks from May–June 2007, U2, Eno, and Lanois wrote and recorded music in a Moroccan Riad similar to the one pictured.
A street sign reading "U2 Way" was added to 53rd Street in Manhattan during the album's promotion.
