I have not seen any poll threads on rating the album...so give it one!
I'll throw in averages once in a while.
I'll throw in averages once in a while.
I threw in 9. A masterpiece...definitely. Their best??? To be determined...
...... ......Moment of Surrender stole my heart.
i'm just interested to see how people rate this album 6 months down the road. while i think it's excellent, i'm still not sure what its lasting power will be. there's just no way of knowing.
Remind me to follow up with a poll in August/September!
It would be very interesting to compare the results we have now to six months from now. Get your votes in!
PS: With 102 votes in, it's very awesome to see that there's only 1 vote below "Great". Average score with more votes coming in is settling in about 8.34. About the same collective opinion at 50 votes.
I put good. More "different" stuff like Unknown Caller with it's unusual chorus or FEZ-Being Born with it's weird intro and haunting vocals would have made for a better album. Easily accessible poppy stuff like Crazy Tonight and Stand Up Comedy bring it down big time to me. I'm sick of U2 doing that crap. That stuff belongs on Bomb with the rest of the easily accessible "friendly to the majority's ears" type songs.
They only went somewhat daring with this album. Seems like they were headed in that direction then got cold feet and went back to safe songs.
It's a shame they don't have the balls they had when they did Achtung Baby. That was such a slap in the face coming from Joshua Tree and R&H.
