  1. Picking up from there ↑ here's another confession (borderline Misheard lyrics or quotes thread): for many years I thought Bono sings "in the name of love, one more in the name of love" instead of "in the name of love, what more in the name of love", and I actually confronted someone who corrected me

  7. Haha just kidding I just find it surprising that you, a fan I respect and have in high regard, haven't heard 9 of the 30 most amazing songs U2 have ever written. To me it's like being a devoted cinephile without having watched Casablanca, Gone with the Wind, Citizen Kane or The Godfather.

  8. I'm with you on Exit.
    I'm partially with you on Bad.

    I would expose myself even more but I'm afraid of the mob..

Originally posted by LikeASong:I'll kick this off: I harshly criticise the Rose Bowl release but I haven't even watched it in full - I don't even own a physical copy I only watched the live Youtube stream 11 years ago and that's all, I base all my disdain in that (plus a couple of scarce views to specific songs on Youtube)


    You know the cut is different, right? It gets a lot of flack but it's not entirely awful.
  11. This is the "confess your secrets" thread, not the "let's fix them" one I prefer to have that ace up my sleeve in the future, but thanks!
  12. Okay here are some of my own:

    While I don't regularly listen to it, I don't really mind Get On Your Boots and I quite like some parts of it. Especially live when they drop the "sexy boots" line.

    Elevation is a good song.
    Live, Elevation is a great song.

    The production on Achtung Baby is a little too murky and muddled. U2 perfected that sound on Zooropa.
