At least Bono isn't yelling over him.
Saving that for the live shows.

Thank you for discovering this. Now we can put this "SOI is a top 5 U2 album" garbage to bed.
In all seriousness, I agree. It's one of Edge's most boring albums. Raised By Wolves sounds good, but that's about it.
Agree on the Raised By Wolves bit
I think the only real problem with Songs of Innocence is the momentum killer that is the very mediocre and forgettable Cedarwood Road. That song shouldn't be on the album. They could've easily thrown Invisible or Crystal Ballroom on the album to take its place. Cedarwood Road is just a wannabe rock song that goes absolutely nowhere and kills the momentum of the album. It reminds me of Stand Up Comedy in a way.

Yeah... Cedarwood Road is the best song of the album for me.
I don't have a problem with people having a total opposite opinion than me, but I feel uncomfortable when said opinions are mentioned as matter of fact, specially in something as subjective as musical tastes.
It´s an acoustic sessions song, it´s obvious and the transformation into a rock song doesn´t work

Holy fuck I'm so sorry for not putting the disclaimer at the beginning stating that it was only my opinion and not a matter of fact. Grow up and get over yourself.
Of course, every opinion of a member here is an individual perspective, there is no reason to read it as a matter of fact and to be upset about it.
I hate this thread.
Now can we please get back to reviewing Clooney's eulogy at Bono's funeral?

After listening to the album today again, I am even more certain there is nothing wrong with it On the contrary, it sounds so fresh, it is full of excellent songs, great production, awhole new approach for U2. I have no doubts it is together with Joshua and Achtung their masterpiece. I would never expected such an amazing album in this stage of their career and in their age. Very, very surprising. I still cannot fully recover from the positive shock
The only problem is their choice of singles, acoustic promo tour, Bono´s accident. All these three aspects are wrong and caused many damages on album´s propagation.
But in the end I think we are lucky to have such tremendous album and I´m very happy and grateful to the band.

Thanks thavidesco, I enjoyed reading this comment as it clearly states how I feel about SOI too. LemonMelon, thistrain, scorpionac, Partyslammer, Kieran McConville, Hewson, gareth brown, Axver, etc don't share our opinion of Songs Of Innocence but hey that's why I'm on this site.

Hardly Creepy. This is a public site, if anyone on this thread has submitted a list of U2 album rankings then it is open information and available for use. I didn't think I would actually have to explain this
