Passengers deserves a lot more respect for being an experiment and paying off.
Songs on that album like United Colours, Slug, Your Blue Room, Miss Sarajevo, Corpse, Always Forever Now, Kind Of Blue, Plot 180, Let's Go Native - and the two B-sides - are all incredible and textured. I love it.

The 90s were a great period, not just for U2 but so many others. Once the 80s finished, the music only got better up until 1996 - 1998 and then something happened. The radio was even good in those times - and I remember it. Metal and rock, especially.
And a lot of those songs will be in my top 100. Speaking of the 90s (and you may or may not laugh), but Madonna's last 90s album is fucking immense. Even if you don't like Madonna, you absolutely have to hear the instrumental arrangements, by none other than William Orbit, who you may or may not recognise.
But are you 3 guys up for making a top 50 or top 100 or even a top 10 songs of all time?? Not now but if there are a lot of people who want to make a list, I probably make a U2Start top 100 of all time....
Well thats the fun part about it, if a lot of people make a list and I will come up with some kind of ''point counting way'''we will get a big U2 Start list..
