U2
 
So, anyone here a fan of U2? XD
Their new album that just came out was awesome!
The weirdest thing they did this week? They played a concert while they're on a truck that was riding across Manhattan.

XD

-waves- I love U2! Yea for U2. Heheh. I saw a news clip of them going through Manhattan... That's amazing. I would have loved to be one of those Manhattan people in the streets watching.

Alex_ November 28th, 2004 4:41 PM

Yeah, U2's awesome. I love Vertigo. Clearly their best song IMO. Bonno's pretty cool too, always helping out ya know.

oni flygon November 28th, 2004 4:42 PM

They have other great songs. "Sunday Bloody Sunday" is currently my favorite. XD

I wish I live in Manhattan now... ;-;

U2 is the first band I ever really got into...I love Sunday Bloody Sunday...Best song by them, ever. I have the new CD, I haven`t gotten around to listening to it, though...I`m listening to Rammstein at the moment, because it better suits my current mood.

I am a fan of U2. They are great band. I love thier music. I like that song "Vertigo". I think I saw that clip(when they performed in Manhattan)on TV. That is cool. I want to get thier greatest hits. I liked them back in the day too. ^^

oni flygon November 29th, 2004 4:13 PM

They were cool back in the day when they were an "angry" band XD

Camp Kill Yourself December 1st, 2004 6:18 PM

Now it`s "love this," "love that."
Lol. I still love them, though...Guess you never stop liking the first band you hear.
Hmm...I finally listened to the new CD. I love Crumbs From Your Table.

Crumbs From Your Table > Vertigo.

Thomas December 1st, 2004 6:28 PM

I have been a fan of U2 since forever! So many songs...Vertigo, Beautiful Day, With or Without you...so many to choose from they are great. My fav right now is Vertigo...only b/c it is the newest one. XD

Lucy Lu December 3rd, 2004 7:26 PM

Yeah! I loved "Beautiful Day", "With or Without You", "One", those were great songs. There are others I loved, but I can't remember. XD Of course I like their new song.

Yeah, I heard that, and I think it's awesome!

I love "Vertigo".

Vertigo is a pretty good song and it's very catchy, too. Though my personal favorite in the album is "All Because of You".

But it doesn't topple Sunday Bloody Sunday from my favorite U2 song. =D

Mr Cat Dog December 6th, 2004 10:35 AM

I like "Vertigo", but it won't beat Beautiful Day in my opinion. In the UK, "How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb" has been No. 1 in the album charts for about 3 weeks or something, and it doesn't look like it's going to slow down either. ^_^

Intuition December 6th, 2004 10:39 AM

U2 has some good nrs! I don't like all of them though :D

oni flygon December 6th, 2004 4:41 PM

Well, in my opinion, the best U2 albums are "The Joshua Tree" and "Achtung Baby"

My all time favorite song from them is "Sunday Bloody Sunday"
Second best is "Mysterious Ways"
Third best is "One"

Mr Cat Dog December 7th, 2004 11:18 AM

Oooh Oooh... I saw the Joshua Tree in a record store and it was so expensive (£16.99... and considering that albums are £9.99, that's expensiv). Maybe it's paying for quality XD
[/pointless anecdote]

oni flygon December 7th, 2004 4:25 PM

Joshua Tree is U2's best album, IMO. I shouldn't have left it at the Philippines...
._.;;

Brittany December 8th, 2004 8:18 AM

I've honestly never heard of them before this thread XD
I just downloaded some songs, and they're pretty good.

Thomas December 8th, 2004 8:41 AM

They are good. I have 2 of their songs on my comp..."Beautiful Day" and "With or without you" I am waiting for a higher quality of Vertigo before I download it.

*Jawdrop* Are you serious? Wow... and I thought everyone had heard of U2. Oh well... at least you like their songs. If you didn't, me and Niko would have had to kill you XD

oni flygon December 8th, 2004 1:09 PM

Yep...

I mean...people these days don't even know this band. This band was able to obtain commercial success in 2 decades! 2 DECADES!!!

Mr Cat Dog December 8th, 2004 1:22 PM

At least they've been acknowledged. A couple of weeks ago, they were inducted as founding members of the UK Music Hall of Fame along with Elvis, The Beatles, Bob Marley and Madonna.

Still - at least with "How to dismantle and atomic bomb" they'll be coming back to a fresh audience as well as their oldie fans as well ^_^

oni flygon December 8th, 2004 2:09 PM

Of course...

Though, some of the old fans want the "angry" U2 back...but...they're fine with me nowadays. I wish I was in Brooklyn when they had a free concert... ><

Claire December 8th, 2004 3:35 PM

U2 are a great band ^^ ive loved their oldest songs up to their newest ^^ -very few bands are eternal like them

oni flygon December 11th, 2004 10:41 AM

It's amazing that they can obtain this kind of comercial success... o-o
