What do you guys do when you want to "rediscover" U2?
I'm a huge fan, but I must say I haven't been very satisfied with the setlists of the current tour (this will probably change when some time passes). I was probably expecting too much and my expectations are not met yet - right now this tour reminds me of Elevation tour too much and I'm left feeling hungry.
I was thinking that perhaps I could find something new if I'd start listening (with headphones on this time!) the old albums starting from Boy one by one and _really_ concentrate on lyrics of _each_ song trying to understand what was going on in Bono's head when he wrote the song. I realise I have never really thought about the lyrics of Boy or October or some other albums - I have just enjoyed the music.
Perhaps this would be a good way to "rediscover" U2 for me. This time I want to be able to hear every little detail of the recording and that's why headphones are a must. Well, it's summer holiday and all - let the analyzing begin!

Hmm.. Does this post make any sense? Well I hope so.
