would you feel better if "The Hills" changed their theme song to "Crazy Tonight"?
Yes. That would be fucking amazing, actually.

OK Computer NEVER did this. It was a critics fave, but never even came close to galvanizing.
Does anyone else get the impression this time around that U2 does not really care about album sales and #1 singles? I mean, yeah they care but not in the same way as the ATYCLB/HTDAAB – Biggest Band In The World approach… It's kind of refreshing actually...
The only good music is mainstream music and pitchfork approved music, :
absolutely. and i agree, it's so refreshing. and have you noticed that there is little to no backlash surrounding this album? other than a horrible/predictable Pitchfork review, there's very little negativity from the general public. no "11 Worst Songs of 2004" websites.
The album has the same rating as Bomb on RYM (tied for U2's worst album), and a lot of the reviews are pretty harsh. Boots is also in the bottom few hundred singles of all time, so there has been a lot of hate, especially when it was first released
Yeah, but the difference is that this album's rating is actually rising, whereas Bomb started off high and dropped steadily dropped. Representative of the nature of these records? I like to think so.

Irishteen, you seem almost obsessed with these numbers you are always posting, I'm wondering do you honestly care all that much? This is not a dig or anything, I'm genuinely curious...
i'm not sure what RYM is, but i'll bet that it's not an accurate indicator.
Rateyourmusic, it's a website where people rate and review the music they own
sounds like a cool site. i still stand by my statement that the general opinion of NLOTH is way better than HTDAAB though.
yeah i like it, some bands like u2 do seems to get a lot of hate on it though. But any website that listens crank that (soulja boy) as the worst single ever is awesome
RYM is great, but they are unfairly biased against U2. I mean, EVERY Coldplay album has a higher rating than NLOTH, even that abomination X&Y. That's ridiculous.
every coldplay album has a higher rating than nloth,
vlv > nloth

Ticket prices will never come down that cheap.
And there is no killing off smaller, newer bands... Give me a break, this isn't Wal-Mart where the big guy comes in and puts the small guy out of business. That's not how music works.
How am I nitpicking? I was in College at the time, and it was big but you described it as galvanizing the masses and it wasn't that.You're nitpicking since that's obviously not the point of my post. Anyway, where I lived, at the time it was released, OK Computer was the biggest thing since sliced bread. Literally, everywhere I went in my city of the time, everybody had it, was playing it, and was talking about it. But maybe it wasn't as big if you weren't into the collegiate scene of the time and living in certain areas...
I'm talking about business here, not music. Those are two different things. Yeah, there will always be plenty of high school garage bands, but that doesn't mean any of them will get a record deal.
so the same forum that still yearn for the "fuck up the mainstream" attitude actually just enjoyed Bono using the word 'fuck'
cool
