The Positive U2 Thread

[Screwtape2]

A lot of people here complain about the negativity especially towards the album delay. I thought we could have a thread where we list what U2 is the best at. So list what you think U2 was or is the best at. Anything from they made the best song ever to Bono had the best mullet. Maybe this will show that everyone has some positive thoughts about U2.

I'll start.

Best song ever written: Walk To The Water
Best encore at a concert: Zoomerang Leg on ZooTV
Best unreleased song: Be There
Best song about food or drink: The Martini Song
Best onstage character: MacPhisto
Best remastered album (with additional material) : The Joshua Tree
Best Robin Williams impersonator: Bono

Now you.

I mean what they are better at than anyone else not thier personal best.

U2 have proven that they are indeed the best band. What other band has kept all of its original members together for over 30 years?

Not The Beatles
Not The Stones
Not Zeppelin
Not The Who
Not The Grateful Dead

 

[Rob33]

well, Screw...I don't know any comment more positive...U2 are the best band in the world...and it is my personal opinion that they are the greatest rock n roll band in history

- they are the best live act in the world, and have been for a long ass time
- they have the best voice in rock n roll, who is also without question one of the greatest frontmen to ever step foot on a stage
- they have one of the most incredible musicians in the world in the Edge
- they have been together for 30+ years, the same four members for the entire ride...and they have a chemistry like no other
- they are ridiculously famous, and when they're gone, their legend will only grow more and more

i don't think he was referring to your post, which is why he quoted quietguy's.

I'm betting it's a demo so rare that not even U2 knows about it.
