A couple of weeks back, while driving home from work one day I was listening to Achtung Baby in my car. Got home, saw my roommate and said "I've just been listening to the greatest album ever made". He asks which one and I tell him. Immediately he goes "It's not even U2's best!" This is one of those people who loved Joshua Tree & Rattle and Hum but got totally turned off by the Achtung concept. He says he didn't like the whole fly persona, puppets with the big heads, their making fun of themselves yada yada yada. So fucking what? They were having some fun for a change. Life is all about variety, isn't it? There are probably many people out there who got put off by the concept and missed out on some amazing and personal songs like So Cruel, Ultraviolet, Wild Horses, Acrobat and Love Is Blindness. Rant over.
