Instead of cracking and listening to the *ahem* full download of No Line that's come into my possession recently, I've been diverting my fannish energies to another U2 CD that I got last weekend and had been saving for such an occasion. Hello, Zooropa, and where have you been all my life? I mean, I had most of the songs already, but there's ( Read more... )

Zooropa is ten kinds of awesome. NLOTH I am sure will be great, but Zooropa... man, I just love it so much. Good call! It's so underrated, too.

Have you heard/seen the U2-only version of The Wanderer? It's around on YouTube - they performed it as tribute to Johnny Cash and Edge does amazing high backing vocal things. You probably have seen it, lol. I just like to go on and on about this stuff. I'm sure you don't mind, as a fellow fan. ;)

ALSO do you have any 90s b-sides? Because they are also amazing. Me + U2 90s = having a long-term serious relationship.

I can't believe how great Zooropa is. I'm a relatively new U2 fan -- have been for about a year and a half, when my writing mentor flung a Slane Castle recommendation at me -- and therefore haven't gotten around to getting all the albums yet. I'm catching up, though! I have not gotten to the B-sides yet, though. Any recommendations?

Zooropa has solidly convinced me that 90's!U2 is far and away the best U2 there is. God, I love them when they're being experimental and underrated and weird.

I need to look up that version of The Wanderer. It's a pretty incredible song.

The song grows on you. I didn't like it at first, but then I paid attention to the lyrics and was like, "Wow, okay, this works."

(Hee. I'm like a U2 dealer these days. They are my very favorite drug.)
