new U2 tune (2 Viewers)

[magicbastarder]

hints of subterranean homesick blues in it.

Beautiful Day is a deadly song... although it's got the same chorus as The Sun Always Shines On TV. The new one sounds awful. It might be good but I can't get past him saying 'Sexy Boots'. Anytime he's ever said the word sexy it's made me feel ill.

 

[Lili Marlene]

Verse is pump it up by Elvis Costello, chorus is QOTSA lite

ha! very accurate. I'd rather listen to it than QOTSA but more likely i'll listen to neither.

 

[flashback]

the first 15 seconds are alright.

 

[Denny Oubidoux]

they often put out shite first singles and then it turns out the that the album has a few half decent tunes - discotheque, the fly, numb

 

[Lili Marlene]

discotheque is a great song

[Skrankio-X]

Meh. Bono's not as unintentionally funny as he used to be.

I bought my bro a copy of Boy on cassette for Christmas.

Had a listen to it to see was it as great as I remembered.

It was not.

 

[Kid Lovebeach]

just listened to it a second ago, can't for the life of me remember how it goes.

 

[ann post]

just because its a recession doesn't mean we have to listen to u2.

 

[shitepipe]

sounds like thom fucking yorke

 

[Moods For Mallards]

What an honour for four boys from the northside of Dublin to play for you, Mr. President!

Boy's not bad. All that early stuff is decent I reckon.

I lost interest after the Joshua Tree though will admit they've had their moments since. Just not any on their last 2 albums.

I'm not gonna listen to this song. In about a months time we'll be inundated with the usual U2 hype shite and this song will be eating into all our brains. I'll wait til then.

And that first single theory isn't right, whoever mentioned it. Almost all their first singles from whatever album were strong, the last 2 albums being the exception.

Desire was a great song too, as well as those others mentioned.
