    Vertigo was a huge tune for the band and is a live favourite and will be for some time


    I love opinions, although I don't agree


  2. They got a lot of publicity for giving the album 5 stars though.

    I'm starting work on my own list. (A top 20 I think). My guess is All That You Can't Leave Behind will take the top spot.
  4. The guys have been nominated for a Golden Globe for "Winter". Bring on the Oscar!


  5. Their competition in the category includes songs by Paul McCartney; Maury Yeston; James Horner, Simon Franglen and Kuk Harrell and Ryan Bingham and T Bone Burnett.
  6. they should win an oscar just for vindication or revenge, but Hands deserves an oscar probably more than Winter does


  7. no Winter is a better song. Did Hands win anything?


  8. It won the Golden Globe, but it lost the Oscar to Eminem's "Lose Yourself"


  9. Lose yourself is a great song. It deserved the statue. Hands are actualy one the most boring U2 songs. The whole movie wasnt really good anyway. Im so excited to see Brothers thou. Winter is a very good song. I hope it gets the Oscar.

    I disagree entirely.
