u2 = better than trance.

Sorry folks but it's true.

Although I still love my electronic music I still think U2 are far better tan any other brand of music. Sheer genius.

I dont like them, I never have, I just find their songs flat and unappealing.

agreed. and New Years day, damn, that's a tune and half. the Ferry Corsten and Hybrid Mixes of it are just AWESOME too.

Their music is good.. but its uncomparable to trance music since they have little in common...

I like live bands playing but i prefer the spinning of vinyl from my fave trance dJ'z!

Posted by DJ Mikey Mike on Mar-18-2003 21:42:

dont care for them or there music. just not my style. Beautiful Day was average. Find the rest a load of guff.

Posted by BonGWateR on Mar-18-2003 23:18:

U2 is the most overrated band of all time...Old stuff is OK, but newer stuff is udder shit, just my opinion.

Posted by mr. poopyhead on Mar-18-2003 23:37:

i heard an awesome remix of "even better than the real thing" the other day... who remixed it??? i want it now..

Posted by fr0st on Mar-19-2003 00:17:

I think everything after zooropa was shit also.....their best album is the joshua tree, i think it was also one of the first "Cd's" to go platinum.........With or without you is one of my favorite songs of all time.

I like u2 but better than trance..no way.

Best U2 song I've heard:

U2 - Staring At The Sun (Brothers In Rythem Remix)

It's great, appeared in Paul Oakenfold - Live @ Creamfields 2002

U2 is an excellent band, i love their songs, but they seem too political sometimes.

Posted by Sugarbean on Mar-19-2003 03:51:

i dont like them. yuck lol i had to be exposed to them for three years back in highschool...my bf at the time liked metal and rock and stuff like that...so ive heard a lot so my opinion isnt trance bias lol

Posted by trancEyes22 on Mar-19-2003 03:55:

yeah i can't really compare the 2...it's like, opera and country- 2 totally different genres. but of course if i had to pick, trance hands down!!!!!

Posted by tranceman78 on Mar-19-2003 04:14:

I don't mind U2, but they are about as close to Pop as I'll get. Some of there stuff is downright awesome though. But trance will always have my heart.

Posted by beema on Mar-19-2003 04:19:

I'll admit I like a lot of their older songs, I will sing along to them
but their recent stuff sucks
plus now they are just another one of those massive pop groups who charges $150 for nosebleed seats....anyone who does that is just a prick, I dont care who they are

Posted by kevM on Mar-19-2003 08:23:

U2 are awsome ... they were my main source of music through High School ... and there are lots of good remixes.

For more experimental electoric stuff from them check out Passengers - Origial Soundtracks 1 ... (their collaberation with Brian Eno)

Bullshit. The prices on thier latest tour were excellent, being an arena tour none of the seats where far from the stage and the "nosebleed seats" were only $45 ... infact the standing room floor tickes were only $45. So for $45 canadian I was close enough to shake Bono's hand after the show. Compare that to acts like Madonna or the Rolling Stones.

U2 is a great band, no questions asked. But it's really a matter of opinion to say that they are better than trance.

Posted by biznology on Mar-19-2003 13:11:

no.

Posted by Porky on Mar-19-2003 13:17:
