I can barely hear Viva Davidoff. That's a million times more pleasant than being able to hear SUC and Big Girls Are Best in any capacity.
I don't think there is one universally hated U2 song. But there certainly is one universally hated U2 band member though.
Aw come on, what did Edge do, kill your dog?
Bono should just get TOOL tattooed on his forehead. Then each time an interviewer asks him why he/U2 are so disliked, he can just point in answer.
I think the only one who is still relatively pleasant is Adam. Larry and Edge have lost it with their batshit statements in the last ten years as well.
Those seem like viewpoints that can reasonably disagreed with, but they don't sound like batshit crazy statements that mean they are unpleasant people, or will make them widely disliked.
And shit, I wish I had written Wonderwall too
This is not the Bono I knew back in the 90s.
Oh yeah? Where did the two of you meet?

On MTV!!
Then I'm guessing you "knew" Pamela Anderson a little more intimately in the 90s...

I won't hear a bad word about Miami. It is only "universally hated" by the people who don't listen to anything but U2, and because it's a little different, it is therefore singled out as a bad song. It's great, and more importantly, it never deserves to even be in the discussion because it was a fucking monster live.
poll it is
You have to be a subscriber to make polls, unfortunately.
Quite some years ago now, we ran a Worst Song Survivor. It was pretty entertaining, but unfortunately ended in a dull final round between Viva Davidoff and ... I think it was Theme From The Swan.
The intro to Red Light is pretty bad, but it's actually a pretty good song.

This is a guy who prepared for Achtung Baby by listening to bands like Einsturzende Neubauten, My Bloody Valentine, Nine Inch Nails. A guy who was raised through bands like The Clash, Television and Led Zeppelin. His ambitions were to filter those influences and make something catchy and infectious but also sonically adventurous and unique. I actually like Wonderwall, but it's as simple as a pop song can get. This is not what U2 is all about to me. But I guess all of the band members disagree with me on that now.
Yet Oasis will be forever remembered for that song. It has become a legend, just like many other songs.
And sadly to say, U2 doesn't have a song like that. One might argue that One comes close, but it is certainly not as well known as Wonderwall or has the same 'chart' status. So I guess that's more what Edge was aiming at than the pop song simplicity.

I think the reference was just to songs in the 90s.
Well that is much less wtf then. But still One would definitely fit in that category.
