Of course.....I am joking!
For me, no-one in my lifetime will have the same status as U2.

Lancemc said:Coldplay is great and all, but not nearly as great as U2 were, even after U2's second album. If Coldplays third album (still can't wait for it though ) is anywhere as big as WAR, then I might reconsider. I thinkt he band that will take U2's throne though probably hasn't really gotten started yet, or is just getting there.

Easy now. We're not saying that he's utterly devoid of charisma. We are saying that he doesn't posses the almost obscene amount of charisma that guys like Bono have.
Or, to put it another way if Chris Martin and Bono walk into a crowded room who will everyone look at?

Chris is only on his third record. He's much better than Bono was after October, I mean, he's learned alot from the Bono of JT, AB, ATYCLB. He'll only get better as they put out record number 4, number 5, number 6.

Well to be blunt, you're wrong. He does have the stage presence, Excellent performer IMO. Just because he's a nice guy doesnt mean he can't lay it down when he wants to.
Thats why I said IMO.

I can't say I agree with the last part of this statement in the least as the U2 album that most resembles what is hot in rock right now (Franz Ferdinand, The Departure -- their 2005 debut LP will undoubtedly be big....I could go on), is October. If another band released October right now, exactly as is, it would be hugely acclaimed IMO. That faster paced, 'guitary' sound is what everyone is mimicking.
U2girl said:No one.
The odds of any band putting out an album that would be as big as JT or AB, and it'd have to be VERY early on in their career, are too slim IMO.
