1. I once wrote a papper on why The Joshua Tree was my personel favirote album of all time, and another comparing U2s earlier material to there later stuff.
  2. Haha! I've written concert reviews, DVD reviews, the inevitable album reviews and I've even managed to work quotes, references and lyrics into almost any essay
    My English teacher LOVES me :L

    I was clearly not paying attention in English the other day, and my teacher was talking about some poem we were supposed to have read, where one of the lines was "melodies are sweet, but the ones not heard are sweeter", and she wanted someone to talk about it, and nobody was volunteering, so she said, "Matt. Take the line from the poem. I assume you're going to U2 again this summer. Relate it."

    And she got a 5 minute rant on how even though I desperately wanted U2 to play "Bad" when I saw them the first time, I was sort of glad they didn't by the end of the night, because it's somewhat sweeter to imagine the perfection of the moment in my head than have a set, defined, textbook definition of what that moment WAS for the rest of my life. She goes...

    "Exactly."

    To which I added, "Just a heads up, great minds think alike; "the sweetest melodies are the ones we haven't heard" is in another U2 song from the newest album. Great minds think alike"

    To which she rolled her eyes.
  4. Nice story, Matt. I think Bono's line sounds better anyway. Actually some people used to borrow someoneelse's thoughts
