OOTS > all those songs.innocent_eyes said:
yeah, who still listens to yesterday, can't buy me love, ticket to ride, day tripper, help, or the Beatles at all anymore?
That is so 1970s!
The difference is that the Beatles could save any song with an amazing vocal melody.innocent_eyes said:

I completely agree. Remember during the Achtung Baby sessions, when the band made a list of words that should never appear in U2 lyrics again, because they were becoming overused? (sand, stone, etc.).
I think the boys need to draw up a new list! I've had quite enough of "freedom," "knees," and, well... can anyone think of others?

I missed this post until nowMeghan said:I don't think the lyrics matter that much. Most lyrics sound kinda dumb when you just say them.
If you think of a song like Please, that a lot of people say has great lyrics, and forget the melody and just think of the lyric, some of it sounds pretty pathetic.

On another note, watch Bono's songwriting slip into the abyss:
Q: Bono, what word(s) rhyme with "bug"?
1980 & 1990's Bono (AKA the greatest Bono ever, every other version sucks horribly... ): bedbug, bug, chug, debug, doug, drug, dug, earplug, firebug, fireplug, hug, humbug, jug, lug, mug, plug, pug, rug, shrug, slug, smug, snug, sparkplug, thug, tug, ugh, unplug
Q: Bono, what word(s) rhyme with "cat"?
2000's Bono: Duhr....uhr....uhh.....uhhhhh....uhhhhhhhh....uhhhhhh.....
............knees?
Q: Hmm...here's your grammy!
2000's Bono: Yay! Wooooo Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

People are tired of complaining about HTDAAB, so now we're
complaining about these lyrics? From a NBC bit? for a song that may not even be a song?
We're judging demos now?
