"Hawkmoon 269" was recorded in Hollywood, California in Sunset Sound studios. The name "Hawkmoon" was inspired by the town of Hawkmoon, North Dakota, which U2 had passed through while on tour. The number "269" in the title refers to the number of mixes the song went through before the final recorded version, according to the Edge, who said they spent three weeks on the track.

It takes at least 270 electoral votes from the Electoral College to become the President of the United States. When Americans go into the voting booth they are not really voting for a candidate but rather for the candidate's slate of electors in each state who are required (according to a recent court decision) to vote for the candidate when the Electoral College convenes.
