The Fly
U2 are not afraid to stand up for their concerns or in fact the concerns of the global community. They have always worn their hearts on their sleeves. Obviously, they would not 'use' their album solely as a tool towards or on American Politics (It's a global concern anyway..or at least it should be). But they have their message. Messages on love, messages on anger, messages on poverty, on disease, on the cure (most likely-Miracle drug) messages against choosing the wrong path perhaps as well.
Why oh why do some people think that we are saying that U2 has to "spell out" something in order to get their points across.
One could write a song about forced sex and have its real message be about invading another country. Invading one's beliefs, invading what's most dear to someone. There can me sooooo many meanings, and so many points articulated in one line. And, sometimes, if your music is any good at all...you don't have to say anything. HA! That's greatness. Have the music do the talking for you! As The Edge did thru his 'airplane-like' guitar in bullet the blue sky.
Hey...remember this, "AM I BUGGIN' YA!!!!
