Rock n' Roll Doggie
I remember alot of talk about this before the album was released and we'd all spend hours every day talking about it. Some people predicted it would be their best ever, some predicted it would just be OK, some people wouldn't comment... blah blah blah.
Do you think this is in their top three albums along with Joshua Tree and Achtung Baby? Do you think it lived up to the hype? Did it live up to your hype?
I lived up to my expectations. I was honestly a little skeptical as to how good it would be. While my favorite U2 albums aren't really considered the best, I consider this one of my favorites (along with Achtung Baby, Zooropa and ATYCLB) AND one of the most well made all around. It's kind of funny though because this album only has one of my favorite U2 songs (OOTS, this may change with time though). I think it's probably their third best album.
I didn't really think it was that spectacular at first. The individual songs were great, but it didn't really gel as an album for me. I've felt alot better as an album as a whole lately and I'm sort of rediscovering the greatness of some of the tracks (one of the signs of a great album IMO). My opinion on the album is only getting better! Easily one of my favorites.
