    What you said in that second quote. Seriously thinking NLOTH is as good as Achtung Baby? That's a crime against humanity. You do not, under any circumstances, diss out the brilliance that is Achtung Baby - otherwise you're clearly devoid of any musical knowledge.

    Not everyone thought Achtung was their shining moment and the best album ever made. Me for one. Zooropa is a much better album overall.


    Stop nitpicking, if you read through the NLOTH pre-release discussion you'd see that comparisions were being drawn to AB not Zooropa or October or something


  2. Yes, which idiot thought it was a good idea to take out that gorgeous twinkling guitar and string arrangement and replace it with a boring piano part.

    It would've fit the soundtrack fine too, if the theme song was to sound like it was part of the score they wouldn't have asked U2 to write it.

    I don't think it the linear version would have fit the film, or at least the way the song appears in the film. I saw it, ans the piano cutting in at the end and hearing Bono's voice was so powerful.
  7. I bet that when the jury just heard the first "...the haaaaannd" they said "ohw no..."

    Bono or Edge presumably. Why you here again?
