    For decades, U2 has treated arenas as havens of community through shared songs. This time, the singalongs are mixed with warnings and pleas to save an endangered American dream.https://nyti.ms/2rk33Xo

        Bono's ego aside and ignoring complaints about how many years ago was the last "good" #U2 album, it WAS the Irish who gave us the American Dream (and other folks from #shithole countries).

        Their recent album is great and got to #1 and they’ve sold out this world tour. It’s my 3rd fav U2 album and probably their best since achtung baby

        While I credit you for mentioning Achtung Baby, you clearly have never listened to The Joshua Tree, The Unforgettable Fire, War, October or Boy if you believe trash like SOE is anywhere *close* to their top three. Hewson & Evans are now sell-out activists, not prolific artists.

        Joshua tree is my fav album of all time, followed by achtung. SOE is my third fav. My fav song by them is Bad

        Bad is the best song they’ve ever written & Joshua Tree is one of the top 10 albums of our lifetime. So 👍🏻. I just don’t get SOE. I saw U2 in 2017 & Bono did more politics than singing. It felt like $200 blown - especially after seeing 5 life-changing Elevation shows 18 yrs ago

        Bad is really one of their greatest songs. The Joshua Tree album is amazing. Of course, I discovered Achtung Baby in high school - I think the first album of any bands you discover will always have a special place though.

        Achtung Baby = completely underrated. It’s nearly perfect. I must say though.. the live acoustic performance of Stay during the Elevation tour (Bono/Edge, single mic, tip of the heart) moved mountains. They really need to get that live mojo back. This tour falls far short of that

        U2's multimillionaire tax exiles perform "singalongs...mixed with warnings and pleas to save an endangered American dream"? The arrogance of extreme wealth and narcissism knows no limits, it would seem.

        So U2 has totally abandoned any notion that it directly copies Springsteen on almost every front? Obviously U2’s lyrics after 1987 are sophomoric. And it cannot wrote songs like the Boss. But its efforts to copy are laughable.

        Bono's fundraising for Africa didn't do much for Africa but made Bono a rich man.

        Bono's into SJWism for two reasons; publicity for himself and the band and to line his own pockets. Sorry to burst your bubble.http://metro.co.uk/2010/09/21/bono-under-fire-over-one-charity-donations-totalling-9-6m-519721/ …

        People are forgetting the one charity is to raise awareness and then a certain percentage goes to the cause. They pay for marketing etc with the donations
