worse than october?
rattle and hum?
Lancemc said:Yes. ATYCLB is much better.
But I still think Miracle Drug is a great song. It's probably my favorite lyric on the entire album, though that's not really saying a whole lot. I think I was a little disappointed because I expected the live version of that song to be mindblowing. There was so much potential for that. But when the live performances finally came, it was just sort of flat. Oh well.

LemonMelon said:I loved Miracle Drug live. I thought it was at least 3x better. It didn't have that syrupy sound once it had some life blown into it. I remember it being one of the highlights of the show I went to. Mindblowing. I never liked MD much before that, but that changed my mind momentarily.

mads said:Oddly enough, I hated ATYCLB until I started to get sick of Bomb. Now I like it a little more for some reason. Both are near the bottom of the heap for me, though.
LemonMelon said:I'm predicting a resurgence for Bomb about 3 years after the new album comes out. You know, lots of "OMG remember Bomb??? IT KICKS ASS" threads and that.

AtomicBono said:Vertigo is really underrated here; I still think it's a fucking great, energetic U2 song, worthy of being played twice a show.

ATYCLB was the introduction to sub-standard lyrics on a U2 album. HTDAAB provides us with even more garbage such as LAPOE.
