I've read good reviews about it, and am thinking of getting it for Christmas... although I'll probably get it regardless of what is said here... anyways, anyone who has heard it, please tell me wqhat it's like... and if you haven't heard the album, and just hate U2, please just ignore the thread! :) |

haha, oh my... |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
somehow i like that vertigo song |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't really think vertigo is that special, but I'm sure the other songs are good... so I might buy it... |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
I knew this thread would turn into a hate thread though... what was I thinking? :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its possible the other songs are better, but that vertigo song sounds like so fucking generic radio trash (like nigel said), it sounds like any fucking flavor of the month band, only with Bono's voice. |
||||||||

Anyway... u2 does NOT suck they're been around since the 80's and still rock. And 1,2,3 catorce! is because its their 14 album so before you go off bitching like a fuck head know what youre bitching about. And I bought the album and I'm listening to it right now...the album get to your heart..it fucking rocks, every song is so meaningful I love it ! and i cant wait to see them in concert! there you go buddy...get the album its so worth it! |

Not liking the U2 PS: Isnt that album available on itunes only? |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
wifey bought the cd,dvd, book thingy.....$29.00 the book looks very rad |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
So if it's their 14th album what is the point of the 1, 2, 3? Oh and I hate them. The only songs by them that I can tolerate are the really old ones like from Achtung Baby or whatever. And The Sweetest Thing was also kind of nice. But for the past 4 years they've been horrible to listen to. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Recycle-$29...my sister got it for 18. And yes it is pretty rad. "The only songs by them that I can tolerate are the really old ones like from Achtung Baby or whatever." Or whatever?? umm, wroight... I dont even want to say anything about that. Achtung baby or whatever haha ok. The only thing I can say is that they go with what they feel not with what society tells them to sing or the types of music their agents should tell them to play..I can see many people dont like them but thats cool cause I want them ALL TO MYSELF! |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
OH right 1 (first) 2(second) 3(third) album .... 14th album DUH! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
What's that saying? "Bono: the bane of the Irish" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Why doesn't it say 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, then? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
OH. Cool, so he's put a extra boring twist on an already boring musical cliché. YAWN. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I dont see any cliche there. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
You've never heard some say "1! 2! 3! 4!" before? No wonder you like U2! |

$18.00, the one w/the book ? how.where |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Youre talking about the one that look like a VHS right? Because that one is about 29, at first I thought you were talking about the one that is the CD case with a DVD in it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thank goodness you have the looks your brains are useless right now :P the cd, the dvd, and the book = $29.00 (READ MY POOST) |

i really resent that they always call themselves "the greatest band in the world" or that they even allow any media to label them so. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
There's alot of stuff thats been around since the 80's that still sucks. Alot of fans dont want to leave a band that lost their touch. Happens all the time. Look at metallica. They lost it. People still listen to that crap. Radio friendly garbage. Anyhow..... U2 sucks more dick than a gay pornstar. But if you guys like it, cool! 2004 doesnt have much in the way for great music aside from Lamb of God's new one |

Hey!! I realized my mistake ok :P I wish more people hated them so that I dont have to buy a concert ticket for $150 bucks and wait one a 2 hour line--but they do and this is what I have to do.......BRING ON THE HATE FOR U2 LADIES I LOVE IT... haha... I LOVE YOU THE EDGE!!! "i really resent that they always call themselves "the greatest band in the world" or that they even allow any media to label them so." not once have they ever called themselves "the greatest band in the world" haha, if you were in a band or a single musician you'll say "hey guys dont lable me as the best...stop it!.stop it now!! I'm just a normal guy ok." hahaha WROIGHT!!! |

A lot of great music has been released this year. I suggest you listen to it. |
||||||||
|
|

|
Suggestions? |

I enjoy U2 here and there. I like a couple of the older tracks like Pride and With or Without you.. just plain good songwriting and I'm a sucker for that effect-laden 80's sound. I also liked the album Zooropa. The early 90's were just so cool. Other than that they're a pretty yawn-able band. By the way, this whole paragraph is focusing on the music and choosing to ignore Bono's less-than-agreeable demeanor. The review might be different if that were taken into account. |

New Stereolab, new Tortoise, new Sonic Youth, new Fly Pan Am, new Tom Waits, Can remasters, Brian Wilson - Smile, The Vandermark Five - Elements of Style, Exercises in Surprise, stuff. Sorry, by the way, I didn't mean to be so rude and stuff. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
dont worry rude is in :D I don't know I don't know which side I'm on I don't know my right from left Or my right from wrong Say I'm a fool You say I'm not for you But if I'm a fool for you Oh, that's something Two hearts beat as one Two hearts beat as one Two hearts beat as on |

I love U2. But... I can TOTALLY understand people who hate them. There are many good reasons to despise them. But for fuck's sake, how many other bands their size are anywhere near as good as them? Rolling Stones are a joke nowadays, Aerosmith is a joke. My girlfriend hates them. One of my mates from Donegal hates them. (Mind you, he hates everything that's anywhere near mainstream) So, if you like U2 at all there's a good chance you'll love the new album (what I've heard is very very good) and if you dislike them you're not going to suddenly be converted. |

If this helps the haters at all... My Mum once talked to Bono and The Edge's school teacher who said they were "thick as two short planks" And no, my Mum is not a big (if at all) U2 fan just for your information. |

i kicked bono in the bollocks in school on a regular basis. daily, in fact. o.O |

There were lots of good releases this year. And if you dont think so, then its time to go digging for awesome stuff by people you've never heard. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm not saying there weren't/aren't. I'm just stating that as a band of such an enormous scale, they're still turning out a few good tunes. As opposed to other big bucks bands. |
