Discussing this song's purely musical merits and ignoring its political context and impact is about as intelligent as it would be to criticise Picasso's Guernica in terms of brushwork and nothing else.

I agree. I still can't stand Bono though. Sorry. Talk about a publicity whore. |

I finally made it to Red Rocks last summer. Looks like an awesome place to see a show. Sadly, I was there on a Saturday morning, but still impressive. The place was packed with exercise freaks training up and down the rows.  |

You don't like the music, ok. You think the lyrics are lousy, ok. The drummer and bass player are weak, fine. The guitarist really can't play, ok. The singer is monotonous, fine. These would all be opinions on the songs that you are absolutely entitled to have, based as they are on your own subjective tastes. I would disagree with you on all counts but, again, fine. But - "they lost all emotion and started writing for the record company's sake" - Have you actually ever listened to The Joshua Tree, or Rattle and Hum, or Achtung Baby or All that You ....., No Line..... etc. That is nonsensical opinoin based on nothing. |

I got to see the concert in Philly when this came out.
We camped out overnite for tickets behind the music store.
The concert was great. The camping out with friends was even better.......

Awful middle of the road over-worthy fake rock, perfect for the shallow consumerist western cultures that feed the bloated corporations Bono and his like suckle at the teat of.
He is an utter prick. Nothing pisses some people off more than the success of others. |
