Leave the comedy to Garrison.
NLOTH and FezBB sounded like nothing released before when I played NLOTH for the first time. Still don't. The first and only association of Fez to Zooropa, I had it when they merged the intros during the last leg.
And by the way.

Neither does "ambient" or "experimental" music. Or songs with or without guitars, for that matter.
Well, then I guess I'm a housewife who is washing the dishes.
(And your post is a little offensive.)

Funny thing. If I remember back in the day, we had annual member awards. But I don't think that's gone on since maybe 2001-2002
Oh right... You're the one who thinks everyone is against you.
I forgot, as there are so many of you these days, you all seem to blend into one.
Quick guys... Forget about the regular disagreements that everyone else has here on a daily basis... Let's all get together and disagree with Aygo! Baaaaaaaaaa.
No really. You're such a dissident.

Somehow I find myself wishing Von Schloopen were here to lecture us about the evils of the survivor format right now.
The song could have been much better, and I fault Bono. A healthy nudge production-wise and that song could have ended up in UF territory. Nothing really wrong with its structure.
The same E-D riff really is buried in NLOTH. It's interesting because it has a great friction against NLOTH's verse chords, but it's the same basic thing.
To be fair, it's not a super-inventive riff and NLOTH doesn't rely on it like the Fly does.

Yeah anyone who can't hear a teeny bit of The Fly/LWTTSH in NLOTH likely needs an ear canal irrigation.

Very true! Some people would love to hear a recording of Adam on a harp while Larry just claps a beat, Edge just burps and Bono farts. They would say it was so "fresh" and "experimental" like nothing they have done before (although Passengers is basically the sound of a group of people collectively taking a shit)

This forum just can't get rid of the belief that getting out of the box and to experiment automatically means "ambient" or "electronica" or "Edge farting and Larry clapping hands"... That's such narrow-minded vision...

It's fine to hate the song, but I find this housewife sentiment more than a little gross.

I'm not the inventor of this thought, someone posted it in this forum a few months ago. I only recovered it to illustrate my opinion.
Anyway, it's way far from being offensive compared to the "dissident", "ignorant", "Che Guevara" childish insults of you and your fellas.

You and your mates said that and made it implicit in your comments. I wasn't the one who did it. Even a few pages ago, someone implied that I was ignorant simply based on a divergence of opinion of a song. Now, another of your mates say that I'm being offensive for I recovered an imagetic - that's basic and random - of another user in another thread a couple of months ago.
Y'all need to get a life and stop behaving like members of a sect.

Do you even understand the definition of dissident, there's nothing offensive about it. :facepalm:

I'm hoping for the day that U2 plays El Mocambo again before it's sold. Then they can play 12 sold out shows at Massey Hall before they do a major renovation. All the while performing new songs written for their fans.

actually, I'm suggesting you're ignorant for reasons having nothing to do with your thoughts on A Man and a Woman.
but dumb ol' me shouldn't have expected you to pick up on that

I didn't say it was a 'be all, end all' for any of those things. But even if a song has a guitar riff and a 'traditional' song structure (whatever that is), who cares what is used if the end result is any good? Same goes for anything that's 'out of the box' or with the guys just playing keyboards or something.
It's all subjective anyway. But at the end of the day, a good song is a good song.
