  2. i don't understand how you can love Pop but hate Zooropa, that seems somewhat paradoxical seeing as Zooropa is closer to Pop than any of their other albums.

    She probably just doesn't like Zooropa's songs very much, regardless of the style.

    Many people love Joshua Tree but hate Rattle and Hum I suppose.


  4. How is Pop better than No Line? But yeah. i agree on this. (maybe swap zooropa with achtung but recently ive been listening to The First Time Stay, and the AMAZING ZOOROPA)

  7. 1. Achtung Baby - easily my all-time favorite album by any band.
    2. Boy - this is the _real_ U2.
    3. War - this is also the real U2.
    4. Zooropa - I don't like it, I love it! It just feels too short to me.
    5. The Joshua Tree - Would be higher but I've simply listened to it too many times.
    6. Unforgettable Fire - Like Zooropa, it leaves me wishing there was more of it.
    7. Pop - Good, but It would have been better if it were mixed differently and a few songs were left off.
    8. October - Always a good listen, but I think of it as a lesser Boy.
    9. Rattle N Hum. - I'd rather listen to Joshua Tree.
    10. All that You Can't - Also wish certain songs had been left off this album.
    11. No Line - It's not that I dislike it, but I don't feel compelled to listen to it. Not enough juice.
    12. Atomic Bomb - Some good and some disappointing songs.


  8. This is just an impossible task........ sigh:

    1. Pop
    2. The Joshua tree
    3. Achtung baby
    4. No line on the horizon
    5. The unforgettable fire
    6. Zooropa

    8. October
    9. Boy
    10. Rattle and Hum

    12.How to dismantle an atomic bomb (except for the brilliant "Crumbs" offcourse...)
    13. All that you can't leave behind (except for "Walk On" offcourse....)

  9. time to re-do my list, I reckon.

    Achtung Baby
    The Joshua Tree
    Pop
    All That You Can't Leave Behind
    Zooropa
    How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb
    No Line On The Horizon

    Atomic Bomb has grown on me over the past few months, and I'm not counting UABRS 'coz it's only a live album, and you have to draw the line somewhere.

  12. yeah, this is the worst U2 song for me, I hate everything about the song - the high-pitched Bonos voice, weird drum pattern, edges irritating riff, changes of volume... At one part it almost seems its ending and then it starts again....only good thing about the song is Adams bass line
