so, I looked for a thread about Pop over the last six pages to see if there was a recent discussion I could just add to instead of starting a new one...and lo and behold there isn't one. I find that very bizarre for Interference
anyway, listening to the album at the moment...it took me years to realise after I bought it a decade ago, but it really is one of the best things they ever did. Hated bits of it at first, but it is the epitome of a 'grower' for me...however long it takes! Can see why people here consider it their best album, which always used to confuse me. not my favourite, that's either Zooropa or Achtung Baby, but definitely one of their best and a perfect way to round off the decade after those two...
What made me post this thread though was seeing a quote on this video
YouTube - U2 - PLEASE live in Rotterdam
which is so true! i'm sure there's plenty out there who just plain don't like it, but either way...fantastic album...still prefer live versions of Mofo though
anyway, someone else say something please..

And this is from their "crap" album. Hundreds of bands would kill for a "poor" period like this. Please is just a great, great tune.
