I just wandered into a parallel universe of
What The Actual Living Fuck
Did someone just try and say that One, Bad, Kite, Numb and Zooropa don't have a chorus?
Really?
Is this about Fez? No, for the millionth time, Fez doesn't have a chorus, and that's part of the reason it Fe-Fizzles.
You could even argue that NLOTH doesn't really have a chorus, one might say that the chorus isn't "No..line on the horizon, no line..", they might think it to be the "ohs" that follow. (and in that case that also is a pretty blah chorus).
But those earlier U2 songs mentioned, Zooropa included? THEY ALL HAVE A CHORUS. Even Numb.
This isn't even arguable.
