U2 will have the last laugh...

[AtomicBono]

Stuck In A Moment, on the other hand, is flaky and insipid. It's been polished to within a millimetre of its life.

No but if youve seen them that many times I dont believe you don't like the last 2 albums. You're just saying that cause you want to make people here angry.

Sure, believe what you will. It's not true, but if it makes you happy ...

(In fact, just search the archives. I loved HTDAAB when it came out but it quickly lost its charm. I was once Interference's biggest COBL fan. I was never that big on ATYCLB though.)

HTDAAB sucks

angry ?

 

[AtomicBono]

In fact, my fridge humming > the Beatles.

I'd like to meet your fridge then. Didn't realize it changed the entire scope of rock music.

 

[mike hewson]

Nope. Although I have pleanty of friends who are U2 fans with kids who agree with me whole-heartedly on this one. Yes, I know what he is talking about but it's a throw in line that doesn't make sense in context or rhyme and it comes across as a blatant ploy to tug the heart-strings of parents.

Anyway, I'm done.

Its a perfect line!

I strongly disagree with said post, but hey, if the song means something for you, good. I'm glad it hasn't wasted a few minutes of every listener's life.

 

[Mountain Dew Ma]

obviously the lyric

means something to bono

since it is in 'levitate' too

which was pre all that you cant leave behind

so that lyric has been around for 4-5 years

before atomic bomb.

so.

If you want to talk about changing the entire scope of rock music, let's talk about Hank Marvin and The Shadows, who really deserve much of the praise directed towards the Beatles.

Hell, even George Harrison was inspired by Hank Marvin.

It does not suck and now i think this is not a real U2 forum.

You'd think that during that time, he would have found a more eloquent way to phrase what he was trying to convey.

Perhaps he spent too much time with Dubya and got stupid-ified, though.

Bono likes to sniffs babies' heads

they smell like

doritos

(i am not a parent
but i asked my sister who gave birth a year and a half ago)

yeah? did hank marvin and the shadows record rubber soul, revolver, sgt. peppers, magical mystery tour, the white album, abbey road, and let it be?

there is no reason

to drag politics into this thread

 

[Axver]

The acoustic version is meh. I wouldn't go out of my way to hear it, or even think of playing it at all, but I probably wouldn't switch to something else if it came on.

The lyrics bug me the most, though, and the acoustic version inherently still has that problem. The only part of the lyrics I like is Edge's verse at the end.

He recorded Apache.

Pretty fucking influential track that changed the way a lot of people thought about guitar back when it was released in 1960.

But I'm sure you haven't heard of it. Shame about that.

Wait, I'm not a U2 fan now?

I'd even say that this mike hewson chap > the Beatles.

In fact, my fridge humming > the Beatles.

I agree. I find the Beatles insipid and pedantic.

You musn't become frustrated with these mundane lumpens, for they know not what they do. Clearly you are of a higher taste.
