Boy or ATYCLB

[AcrobatMan]

First album versus their last album.

1) I will follow versus Beautiful - close - BD wins

2) Stuck in a moment Vs Twilight - Stuck seems a little slow and forced. Compared to freshness and energy in twilight - Twilight wins

3) Elevation Vs An cat - Elevation is popular song appealing to masses..but An Cat has bassline, bono vocals sounds better.

4) Walk on Vs Into the heart - Walk on wins , Into the heart starts a bit slow

5) Kite Vs Out of COntrol - Kite wins...but out of control was pitted against one of the best post 1992 U2 songs

6) In a little Vs Stories for boy - Stories wins..

7) wild honey Vs Ocean - both are weak songs on respective albums.. ocean just about wins this one

8) peace on earth Vs day without me - day without wins.

9) when i look vs another time - when i look wins

10) New york vs elec co - New york wins

11) grace versus shadows - shadows wins


so i got ATYCLB 5 , BOY - 6

BOY- there is NO comparison. Boy is just amazing, so much better than ATYCLB.....

1- I will follow / Beautiful Day: I will follow wins
2- Twilight / Stuck in a moment: Twilight wins
3- An cat dubh / Elevation: An cat dubh wins
4- Into the heart / Walk On : Into the heart wins
5- Out of control / Kite: Out of control wins- how good did this sound on that U2 go home DVD- awesome!!!!!
6- Stories of boys / In a little while : Stories for boys
7- The ocean / Wild Honey: The Ocean wins, wild honey would have to be one of the worst U2 songs ever IMHO, just such incredibly cheesey lyrics
8- A day without me / Peace on earth: A day without me wins
9- Another time, another place / When I look...: AT, AP wins
10- Electric Co / New York: Electric Co wins
11- Shadows and tall trees / Grace: Shadows and tall trees wins

actually after doing this, the only songs from ATYCLB that I like and listen to when playing the cd is Day, Elevation and Walk On, its an alright album, but just not great, especially when compared to Boy
