YouTube music video takes a swipe at GOYB.

"Quantum Todd" takes a shot at U2 during the bridge. He also appears to be making fun of the Fly. I'm sure most fans are going to hate it on principle, but you have to admit, it's a catchy song, and the video is pretty damn creative (plus, it has references to LOST).

What's that mean?

It's just a very small number of viewers and I was surprised, because you were nearly making it out to be the main thing of the week. I bet you there are eighty videos uploaded every day that have a jab at U2 with similar showings. Anyway, I'm going to do a Dlefdum and say that I haven't actually watched this thing yet and I'm sure it's great but I don't really care, sorry! But be outrageous, please.

That's exactly what I was talking about. Lighten up, dude.

 

[cobl04]

Deep hate is really just another form of deep love.

I just watched the video, as besides the fact that the guitar and bass at the begining kinda remind me of the verses on "Surrender," I really don't see how this bashes U2 at all.

my two best mates think they produce the single worst music they've ever heard, bar none

what kind of music do they like?

 

[xtrmx]

I liked that "Check out my pubes" video. Better than this.

 

[cobl04]

what kind of music do they like?

same sorta stuff, aussie hip hop, red hot chili peppers, one likes club songs...

 

[Galeongirl]

Yeah, come on, dude. This is the 2 they're baggin', doesn't it just make you furious?

The Sad Punk is such a negative emo guy.

 

[david]

I totally missed the parts where he makes fun of anything U2 has created. It's on okay song. Kind of dorky and indie.

The RHCP are cool...I give them prompts for that. I like some club songs, haven't heard much hip hop from australia. I can see how not everyone will love U2, but I cannot understand not liking their music at all. I guess U2's music demands your attention in a different way, and some people aren't willing to lend their ears??

 

[cobl04]

i think it's mostly because i like them, more than anything, and it gives them another thing to bag me about

they also see u2's music as weak, soft, 'pussy', etc...

 

[mikal]

there are some people who just decide that they're going to hate U2 no matter what. normally their reasons are incorrect and immature. oh well.

some people think it is soft or weak to care.....that's always been the case. We can do research and read through the history books and see how being 'hard' has turned out for society. It's not a pretty picture. If people like despair and distruction, then 'hard' is the way to go. U2's approach is against the grain, and that's why they get under some people's skin.

 

[BVS]

Where exactly was the U2 reference?

 

[gvox]

^ ditto

 

[BVS]

So no one found the reference?

 

[coolian2]

if it's not obvious you're not a fan

 

[Rosebud]

Was the only thing the "Take off those boots U2, they're not sexy" line?


Oh the horror!

 

[Rosebud]

The Sad Punk is such a negative emo guy.

Whose name is Bonnie?

 

[Thanksandy]

Yeah, my uncle has always told something like this.
