U2 would NEVER follow that mantra. For them it would feel like giving up the struggle of being the best they can be....
I actually find it really interesting that Chris said that, Mylo to me is their weakest album IMO OF COURSE. But for them it feels like their best!?!? WTF? I think this comes from that one quote directly, they've stopped "fighting" for a new audience and are playing for their fanbase already. And probably the fanbase from Viva they picked up as well.I mean not a problem but the reason I bring it up is because I DON'T want U2 to be playing for "us" I want them to keep the genre changes, the fighting, the struggling, I really don't want them to surrender to the mainstream, THEY NEED TO FUCK UP THE MAINSTREAM AGAIN XD (or at least try)
