There are a lot of narrow-minded people here... sometimes being a U2 fan isn't all that great

Come on and trivialise the true meaning of the song.
what on earth does someone covering a song have to do with trivialising the "true" meaning of the song?Numbology said:next song : Streets Have No Name Yo feat. 50 cent and Pharell

That's because he wrote it. One is for U2 what Imagine was for Lennon.
It's just one of the greatest songs ever written.
doctorwho said:Clearly, though, U2 disagree. We have countless versions of U2 performing this song. We have Cash's performance. Now we have this Blige/U2 collaboration. If you hate it, great! Listen to one of the many other versions of this song that have been officially and unofficially released. But I think Blige at least adds another perspective to the song - and this R&B flavor does ultimately work, even if it takes some time to adjust to. And, perhaps, just perhaps, Blige will introduce this song to an audience that U2 doesn't reach. With a song this powerful, I can't help but feel this is a good thing.

Come 2006, Blige has enjoyed success, analogous to U2 in 1988.

Tell me, how does disliking the rap / hip hop genre make someone a narrow-minded person?

U2Girl1978 said:I'm seriously disappointed in some of the posters in this thread. Everyone has their own taste in music and to bash people over it is ridiculous. And to bash the whole hip hop/rap/r&b medium just because you don't like how one artist is collaborating with another smacks of plain ignorance. Grow up people.

I'm not bashing people for their taste of music, you can listen to whatever you want and i could give a shit less.
I'm bashing rap/hiphop/R&B because i simply don't like the music. It is displeasing for me to hear rap/hiphop/r&b.
I don't like how apples taste, therefore im a close-minded, ignorant, person.
