A week or two ago on thid forum someone posted saying they had spoken to Bono when getting an autograph and had suggested U2 play Fast Cars. Of course U2 then played Fast Cars and we were all kind of sceptical that the fan had any influence. Then looking at U2.com I noticed thsi quote from the...

When I first got the album I loved it. But gradually it hasn't been in my CD player until eventually now I can't really listen to it at all. It is probably U2's most commercial record and it shows in its transparency. I got into it much faster than any record but the price for that is that I...

"The one I love" Just listened to it for the first time though I like it this could easily be a Springsteen song. Although their voices are slightly different it sounds very like the boss. Especially the woo hoo bit.

they just sound not that great or alot worse live. I have a few Desire (acoustic)-Especially as Bono can't sing the "Oh sister" part so he gets the crowd to do it. Staring At The Sun (acoustic) All Because of You-Did nothing for me live but I like the album version Pride-Such a great song...

Just got Bakesale and Harmacy and these 2 albums totally rule. Anyone else like them? I only really got their stuff cos I heard they were a big influence on Snow Patrol. They are but their stuff is a bit rawer and less produced than Snow Patrol.

U2 at murrayfield Is it true they've just been confirmed for the Edinburgh Live8 gig????????????

should be in every live show! I saw it in their set at Hampden last night and it was one of the best songs of the night. I pity the people that haven't seen this song live!

I have done this but I'm realising how annoying it is! Instead of writing "until the end of the world" people write UTEOTW etc! Sometimes they don't even say what album they are talking about so you have to work out what song they are talking about. most of the time i can't be bothered!

I read some reviews of Vertigo and they said that U2 had ripped off "Dirty Boots" by Sonic Youth. I listened to "Dirty Boots" and I can't hear what they're supposed to have ripped off. The only similarities were that both choruses use the same chord progression but that is hardly ripping off...

Does anyone else not really rate either best of album? I found the track selection on both of them a bit weird to be honest. On the first one I never understood the inclusion of WLCTT. There are much better songs than that. One Tree Hill for example or even Out of Control just to name two...

On that video on the ONE website celebrities say they aren't asking for your money. If an addtional 1% of the US budget is allocated to their causes isn't that taxpayers money? So they actually are asking for your money then aren't they? Why not just be upfront about it. Surely taking 1% out...

Is anyone else having trouble deciding who to vote for in the upcoming UK general election? I'd say I am a natural labour voter but I don't want to vote Labour because that would be endorsing Tony Blair's lies about the Iraq War. At the same time The Lib Dem's have unworkable policies like...
