It's a shame, since Boy/Girl sounded so promising...

also, refusing to site Mr. Rogers as an influence for song "Beautiful Day" was just wrong.

These contrived things always amuse me.
Unless U2 happen to wake up and record an entire album whilst jamming, and contain no thought...it is contrived. Almost all art is contrived. The only contrivance may be the type of reaction the band are seeking. So it isn't the album which is contrived - it is the reactions which are sought.
Back on topic...U23 was promising, the rest is a heap of crap. My favourite U2 song is Larry singing Dirty Old Town.

I noticed that Bono has used the word "is" on all 11 records. Lame.

He needs to get a thesaurus or something. The word "and" is also used far too much.

Plus, they suck in concert. I had to go see them six times last year, just to make sure they really did suck that bad.

This thread gets fifteen stars:
Unfortunately, a bug in the forum software prevents it from displaying that much awesomeness at one time. But that's what it's supposed to look like.

Axver said:Even U2's forums are bland and repetitive. Clearly the band's nature influences the forum to sticking to a static 1-5 star rating.
Stars? We're still rating things with stars? Man, this site sucks almost as much as U2. We're so close-minded. Why couldn't we rate things in pineapples or flatworms or something? Interference should be more experimental in its rating system.
