I really do love Vertigo....

[youtwohearts]

I must say I really think this song is rocking. Lately I've been blasting Linkin Park or Rage Against the Machine or System of a Down, you know angry music.
I took a break from the millions of times I listen to Vertigo yesterday and today but it came on the radio and I was dancing well the best dancing you can do in a car.
Love the fact that after 23 years of listening to this band these boys still ROCK!!

I definetly think this song was a convergence of everything U2 had been doing and had been wanting to do. Most definetly was a strong polemic against those who doubted U2 was capable of fresh reinvention while remaining loyal to thier own unique sound. Vertigo

 

[White_Dove]

And I agree with both of you. I'm already in love with the new album.

You've used that quote often, haven't you?

A fun, energetic song: just what I was hoping for to lead off the album.

Fantastic song

 

[Roland of Gilead]

Yes, one song into Atomic Bomb and I think this album is already a winner!

Nooooooo!!! No no no no no.

I said no!!!!

No what?

Sorry, I just really dislike Linkin Park. I think all of their songs are so cliche'd and... the same really. I get tired of the same old lyrics of being insecure and such. I don't think they really are as bad as they say, I think depressed and insecure just sells these days.

Welcome to day 5 of vertigo madness. Perhaps I'll only listen to it 20 times today!

That's cool. I like their mix of style. That and the screaming. Sometimes that angry music just fits for loud music and driving.

Hi you answered great in my thread younger versus older. I liked your breakdown originals, etc. What were you? I missed it.

Hey it's the truth! That's about the best I can say about it other than 'Holy feckin' sh*t, that's a good song!" I went with the most intelligent sounding one.

I can't wait to hear it live. It's just going to get even better.
