Originally posted by Juandi08:You got a great point, U2 has so many different eras that sometimes you could feel to be listening to another band depending on the eras. But, I do think that when I say 'u2 sound' I am referring to Streets, One, Pride, Ultraviolet, Every Breaking Wave, NYD style. Perhaps the distinction of U2 comes when all 4 members shine together. But it has to be the four of them, it can't be one standing out and the rest laid back. For instance, Little Things has the crescendo part on the "sometimes" where every element of U2 shines together. Book of Your Heart has the chorus and the ending crescendo. Every Breaking Wave has the 4 elements from the very beginning, One has the infinite crescendo, Streets as well, Mercy too....
