    This isn't a U2 song people. For God sakes. If you think this is SOE you must be nuts. That said, I liked it.
  4. He might be being sarcastic. People keep Tweeting these things like when Kanye worked with Paul McCartney. Or he is an idiot which is also very likely.


  6. This is incorrect. U2 shouldn't give a damn about their fanbase. They should be doing whatever they think is enjoyable. People misunderstand how being a fan works. Being a fan means you get to enjoy something the artist enjoys doing, it does not mean you get to dictate what the artist gets to do. If that bothers you, don't let the door hit you on your way out.

    That's just your opinion. I do not agree with your opinion. It is never possible for a fan to dictate what the artist gets to do. You misunderstand how being a fan works. Can you maybe explain when people outside of the U2 fanbase say good things about U2, that's a good thing? Why is this important for you? If this lazy xxx song will be the standard for SOE, I'm sure their will be fans on the way out. This xxx song is lazy, that's what bothers me.
  9. But XXX isn't for the U2 fanbase.
  10. Imo, the song is for both fanbases. U2 fans are curious to hear a new song.

  12. Don't generalize.
    I've never been keen on listening to every song the band has been invited to play.
    But when I listen for such songs (Herbert Gronemeyer's Mensch, for example) I for one know that they are usually artists with a different vision, different genre. And I come to understand that U2 are just merging into that vision. They are not doing a U2 song, they are just part of a song for the other artist
