How DO you describe U2?!
Am I the only one sick to the back teeth of people pretending to be wise music critics and parroting phrases such as
"Oh, that performance is so 'raw'..." or
"That version of [song-here] is so 'haunting'..." "Powerful" and so on...
To me it's just a pile of crap. Yeah, music is the ONE thing I would actually say I dedicate my life to but at the end of the day it really makes no sense to start going on about music with words like that.
The reason I like U2 is because they undeniably make the best music on earth, but I really don't like to put myself on some sort of wannabe-journalistic verbal high ground by using stuff like that since it basically sounds rubbish [to me!]
Am I the only one who thinks this?? If not, do let me know won't you??
