Yep, it's true - I love this album and it's a bit boring reading people not liking it or whatever, so here, let's be positive for a change! Ok nothing can compare to AB in my mind (*hugs AB*) but that doesn't mean this album isn't great. I think it's brilliant. From Vertigo to Fast Cars it's a great ride and there are so many fab moments musically and lyrically. Every time I listen to the songs on there I like them better and better. I've even managed to not mind A Man and A Woman so much (that was the only one I didn't like to start with).
I actually first listened to the album all the way through on a train home from Glasgow. I'd had the album but you know when you're busy and you stick it on and don't really pay proper attention. I had the headphones and all, and I just thought, WOW, this album is amazing, and I've loved it since.
I'd say my fave tracks are Vertigo (it's a song with many memories for me and my friends!), Love & Peace, All Because Of You (and I hate when people slag it off - it rocks!), Sometimes... and I love Fast Cars too. Yahweh I didn't appreciate as much until I heard it live, I really loved the way they arranged the song on tour.
So yeah. Great album, underrated I think, and proof that U2 still have it
