I've been listening to U2 a lot for the past week. Just picking an album or two a night and listening all the way through without pause. I've always believed Zooropa to be in their top 3, and I'm more convinced everytime i listen to this masterpiece. Sure, it's experimental for them and the most out-there they've ever been outside of Passengers, but, excuse me for a second...I believe it's also one of their most emotional albums. Sure, it's nostalgic for me and everything, being a pre-teen when it hit, and it actually being the album that got me into U2. But this album is just so fucking cathartic. Creatively and emotionally. I think it's a damn shame that they view this as a minor work. This is the sound of U2 as the studio band, without concern for live performance. I love this album. I always will. This article hits home for me...U2's night album...Zooropa...
