U2 and Bruce Springsteen are crap and Freddie Mercury's voice kills "Under Pressure" for me. On any other song he's amazing, but on this one I can't stand him. It should have been all Bowie.

I wouldn't call them crap but I will say I never understood all the hype.
I just can't get into either of them.

By no means an unpopular opinion.

Most things should be all Bowie.

It took me a long time to get into Springsteen. Its still all piecemeal to me but I can honestly say I love "Atlantic City" from Live in Dublin

(the Nebraska version is awful)

U2 on the otherhand seems passionless to a large degree when I go back and listen to them. Save for Bullet in the Blue Sky which was a divergence from the rest of their catalouge, I think their not working towards much of an adventure if you catch my drift.

They've definitely got a formula, though they break from it slightly sometimes (How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb, Zooropa). Overall, the point is that they're meticulous and phenominal at what they do, though most of their music doesn't work for me, it does for millions. I think their music stands as a sonic definition of area rock, and at least they're not as dumb as most arena rock bands.

i think I'd agree to that. You know what you're getting with U2, and while you're not getting anything new, you really ought to know that.
