whatever U2 is an old school awesome rock band. Unforgettable Fire is an awesome album along with achtung baby. They play awesome live I love seeing them play live and I would do it 3 more times!

man, the whole Achtung Baby album is awesome... The Fly has one of my favorite guitar solos of any song... and One is just gorgeous... this is the only U2 album I still listen to pretty regularly...
Mysterious Ways is probably my least favorite song from the album though...

acrobat off achtung baby has an awesome solo in it, but the fly is far better. this song is great too. in fact, all the songs on that are great. too bad all their other albums don't hold up to the test of time.

Zooropa was the very first cassette i ever bought for myself... and "Lemon" was the first song i ever really liked that i saw on MuchMusic... i've been thinking a lot recently about how much electronic production Brian Eno contributed to that album, and how that probably accounts for the fact that i never really felt that electronics were out of place in music or inhuman or whatever... it's just always been there with me i guess... it's weird to think about now, because it never occured to me at the time... i really love the song Dirty Day...

Sunday Bloody Sunday’, what a great song. It really encapsulates the frustration of a sunday, doesn’t it? You wake up in the morning, you’ve got to read all the sunday papers, the kids are running round, you’ve got to mow the lawn, wash the car, and you think "Sunday, bloody Sunday!".

have you heard the "passengers" album they did with him? its actually very good, and sounds a bit more like an eno album than a u2 one.
