what is this fucking list about?

O.k Computer is a good album, but no way better than Achtung Baby or The Joshua Tree
Nevermind?
hahhah no fucking way!
 
Spin has a certain demographic age group they literally suck up too. It had to hurt them - physically(I hope)- to put U2 at #11, even.
I subscribe to Spin and I've noticed even though they SO! want the younger group to buy their mag - the have no problem using U2's image to sell subscriptions to their magazine - in full page ad layouts no less.:eyebrow:
They piss me off sometimes, in case you didn't notice.. oh well they (U2) are still in the mag every month. :wink:
