im listening to this song on radio atm, and i remember
liking it quite a bit when it came out. i preferd "the fly"
though, anyway, achtung baby is the only album i've got by
u2. there, i said it.

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...

when i've heard the fly for the first time, i was almost
shocked...it sounded nothing like anything i've heard
before.

yuppity yup yup... and Pop is real good, although
underrated... I actually like their 90s stuff best I
think...

POP is different...I prefer their old stuff. WAR, JOSHUA
TREE, AND UNFORGETTABLE FIRE.

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.

and interesting! :)
