Tater Totts Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Its pretty split I would say. Maybe more hate and indifference then like really. Seems for after 3 people that like them 5 dislike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AbominableHoman Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Not really a fan of U2, at all, and I hate Bono. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UYIlies Posted July 22, 2009 Author Share Posted July 22, 2009 yeah Bono is really what makes me hate them he has one good song the beatles cover I am the walrus from Across The Universe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tater Totts Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 This isn't a big at everyone that dislikes U2 but a few of my friends seem to dislike them only because of Bono and not the music and I wondered if anyone here had the same view. That they didnt dislike the music but dont like the band as they cant stand Bono Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scaramouche Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 I don't hate them. But I'll NOT concider myself as a fan at all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpUd_Jr Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Excellent band.Bono has done more good for the world than you could ever dream of doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sabbath Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 If you don't like them, why waste time posting about them?Because that's what a forum is for - to present your view on a subject, whether your view on the subject is positive or negative.That's one thing, but to create a whole thread for not liking a band? That's just dumb, in my opinion.Maybe I'll make one later for Nirvana or some shit... I don't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LightningBolt Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 I don't hate them. But I'll NOT concider myself as a fan at all!This.I like a few of their songs, but nothing has made me mildly interesting in checking out anything else than what plays on the radio.

Black Sabbath Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Also, I really don't understand all of the hate for Bono. Really, what has he done to deserve it? Try to help with extreme poverty and AIDS? Yeah, I don't like Bono now either! yeah Bono is really what makes me hate them he has one good song the beatles cover I am the walrus from Across The UniverseAnd this... Have you ever heard The Fly, Mysterious Ways, In God's Country, Original of the Species, etc? I'm assuming you haven't, and if you have then you most likely didn't really pay attention. U2 fan or not, there are songs people enjoy from them regardless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake Eyes Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 ^^ Good call on Original Of The Species, that tune doesn't get enough recognition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SunnyDRE Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 (edited) Best band since the Beatles.They have never made a bad album.The reason so many people hate U2 is, because they, like Micheal Jackson....belong to the world.

SofaKingWhat Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Bono is a pretentious cock and their music, to me, is bland.I guess it's because most of the music I listen to has killer guitar solos and U2 just don't really cut it.I do like Hold me, thrill me, kiss me, kill me though and Bono did write GoldenEye for Tina Turner, which both likings are influenced by my love of the films in question.

Black Sabbath Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 As I've said plenty of times, the dislike for their music is one thing, but I honestly don't see what all the hate for Bono is. Really... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sabbath Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I like U2.Yeah, did you ever get out to picking up Achtung Baby yet? If so, what do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sabbath Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Until The End Of The World is one of my favorite U2 songs. Ultra Violet has really been growing on my lately as well.Next your should go for Pop or Zooropa. I've been listen to Pop a lot lately and it's just a really cool album. Discotheque is awesome.

I feel like I'm listening to the same album no matter how many times I switch between the two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lithium Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I think their earlier music is really interesting, in particular their first three albums. Their last three have been bland and monotone, however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
