Thats a bit melodramatic don't you think.
"Yahweh" isn't remotely in the same league as two of the most monolithically brilliant U2 songs ever written.

James U2 said:i don't care for it. i put it and "one step closer" as the two weakest tracks on the record. it's not necessarily bad, just nothing special... in my opinion.

Just commenting on the negative state of the board. It wouldn't surprise me if it happened sooner or later. We already have people hoping Streets is cut from the setlist.
And I did expect Yahweh to be more universally embraced as I find it to be reminiscient of Gloria.

Party Boy said:I love Yahweh - its sounds like a mature U2 coming out of a ten mile long dark tunnel with renewed faith and joy.
It was the one song on the album that hit me last - at first i didnt appreciate at all. Now its the one I listen to most.
ponkine said:The songs I most dislike are 'Sometimes You Can´t Make it', 'Original Of The Species', ' A man And A Woman' and 'One Step Closer'.
*shrieks* THAT'S A MATTER OF OPINION.... so have you considered not behaving as if it were a fact? No-one appreciates being dictated to.Pero said:Yahweh isn't close to Streets or One or Wowy!!
So don't even try to compare them
Mark Freedman said:Wow. Yahweh has got to be one of the most passionately debated songs in this forum, ever. I lost count on how many Yahweh threads there were.
I think this is one of those songs that we should all agree to disagree about. Most people seem to love it or hate it, with a minority in the middle. And some people feel so strongly one way or the other that it seems for some, that it's one of the best U2 songs ever (I'm in that category), and others feel it's one of their worst.
Maybe the question should have been -- "I feel very strongly about Yahweh...who's with me?"
I worry about U2 fans who cant appreciate a song like Yahweh.
I just feel so sad for these people.
