    Bono, no comparison
    I've faced it, a life wasted, and I'm never going back again.

    Some die just to live.

    I agree that Bono is, as a person, something of an unscratchable itch, however in terms of performance he has quite an ability. I don't like saying it anymore than you like hearing it but I'm just being honest.

    funny cause i was asking people today who would win in a fight, anyways I like R.E.M. better then U2 large part because of stipe.

  • I went to my dad's this weekend. He wanted to have a 'guy's night in' which was going to be cool. But then he stuck in a U2 live DVD. I'm sorry, I love the amount Bono does for charity, but his band and music is just boring, bland and lifeless.

    So I'll vote Ed Vedder. Oh, I mean Micheal Stipe.

  • I think U2 have more timeless songs although Stipe has that quite strange but very effective way of singing that draws me in more. Although seeing cocnert footage of Bono makes me think he is the better frontman....although he doesn't seem THAT likable as a person.

    Have we lost our way tonight?
    Have we lost our hope to sorrow?

    Feels like were all alone
    Running further from what’s right
    And there are no more heroes to follow

    So what are we becoming?
    Where did we go wrong?

    i like stipe more because i'm more attracted to him than i am to bono.
    but thank goodness the music's great, otherwise i could be accused of being shallow ;)

  • well i am as straight as they come so it has nothing to do with attraction in my case....LOL its just bono's messiah complex that irks me a bit. i do however respect his charitable efforts.
