I wanna do a survey

[scatteroflight]

Whether or not I do anything with the results (whether I'm capable of doing anything with the results--math is what I'm worst at) is debatable. This is just for my personal interest. Oh, and it would be great if we could keep discussions and arguments out of this thread. Just answer the questions, please.

I want to know 1) what year you would say you became a U2 fan and 2) what your three favourite U2 albums are. And don't bother putting them in order.

Here are my answers.

Year: 1994.

Favourite albums: Unforgettable Fire, Joshua Tree, ATYCLB. (at the moment, anyway)

Kobayashi's bizarre use of colour, superfast editing and extreme camera angles, coupled with a hilariously deadpan performance by Toshiro Takemitsu as the inspector who discovers a whole family of ghosts travelling without valid tickets, remains without peer.
