    Same goes for COBL by the way, I rather hear a song less than this awful song. Too cheesy I guess

  2. Originally posted by cesar_garza01:Beautiful Day is great, no denying that. But given that U2 are now into nostalgia acts and that they will continue doing that (the horror!) for Achtung Baby and quite possibly ATYCLB, maybe they can give it a rest for now? After all, we will hear all the classics at the SOE tour again and again.

    Nostalgia tour for ATYLB? God, that almost made me choke
  3. Some filth in this topic.
  4. As much as I love ATYCLB, I think there is no chance of an anniversary tour for it. It's not as atmospheric as the Achtung baby and Joshua Tree songs are live. I still think it gets more than an unfair hard time on here but there's only two albums that can justify an anniversary tour and I think we'll get them.

    It's true.

    I'd actually argue that there IS a certain atmosphere/vibe to the latter half of the album, but it's not as tangible. There's something about the collection of songs AFTER Wild Honey that bring me somewhere specific. I think it's because I remember listening to it while being on a plane slowly descending into a rainy Toronto day. I don't know, it's very melancholy but very hopeful, and I dig it.

    Love love love New York.
