I know a lot of people, maybe even most people, here hate U2, but I don't... and I think Pop is an amazing album of pretty unconventional pop music... Radiohead might blend electronic music with Rock, but U2 was doing it before them... Radiohead blends IDM style, and U2 blends more clubby electro, but it still kicks ass in my opinion... Pop is real good straight through, and is one of their best I think!

I don't know, I don't think so personally... he's just really outspoken and stuff... I've always had a lot of respect for him...

I don't like 'bono', it's nothing to do with 'Rollins' but he is eloquent.

I really have to credit U2 and Radiohead for sparking my interest, and opening my mind to electronic music... albums like Pop, Zooropa, and Kid A helped spark my interest in electronic music...

Funk, are you twelve? Okay you heard some 'new' things... it was stolen from people that really fealt/meant it. Early U2 is cool, their pop crap is rank, theft.

the first u2 album was to be produced by martin hannett.. that didn't happen but you can kinda sorta hear martin / joy division influence in some of their very earliest songs

i have to say i LIKE Bono, i think he means well, eventho sometimes he comes off as a bit of a BOOB!
Also, i prefer the earlier U2 than the Zooropa or Pop Albums. i did enjoy their latest tho....and i think The Edge is an amazing guitarist!

Oh my God, I hate Bono. In every U2 song, I marvel at Edge's guitar playing, delight in the rhythm section, and cringe at his pathetic melodic sense. He pulls weak vocal hooks out of his pale Irish butt.
Pop is my favorite U2 though! Tons of fun, sleezy weird goodness. Zooropa is also first rate. LEMON.

yeah, war is good... though I personally think it suffers from muddy sound... of their earlier stuff I prefer Under a Blood Red Sky... yes it's a live album, and the sound is probably worse, but I think it's awesome... 11 O'Clock Tick Tock is one of their best imo...

I've never heard the original though, so I don't know how it compares... it's from the white album right?
Kick ass song title anyways!

i was wondering, if somebody dissagrees with you, does that mean he is wrong?
calling somebody an idiot because he doesnt agree with you?

I was calling him an idiot because of the way he gets on, not because he disagrees with me... I don't care if he does, but calling me 12 years old, or whatever he called me, rubbed me the wrong way... and all the posts I've seen of him recently have been him calling someone else something... so that's why I called him an idiot... but I really meant asshole as I said after...
