(Radio.com) Amongst the deluge of high-profile commercials that were showcased during this weekend's Super Bowl, a Bank of America spot featuring new U2 song, "Invisible," is amongst the most talked-about spots.

The commercial, which introduced a new partnership between Bank of America and (RED), the global fund dedicated to eradicating AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis around the world, features U2 performing their new song.

The track is expected to be part of the band's much-anticipated new album, tentatively scheduled for a June release. "We're taking all the energy around the Super Bowl and interest in what U2′s doing and flipping it into the fight against HIV AIDS," Bono told USA Today.

Bono also used the opportunity to announce that despite appearances and rumors to the contrary, "Invisible" is not the first official single from the new album.

"We have another song we're excited about to kick off the album," Bono explained. "This is just sort of a sneak preview - to remind people we exist," adding that "it's the first one we finished" and that the group will be working on the full-length "for a couple of months." more on this story
