    Your videos are always fun and instructive for all of us “musician” types. The mouths on the photographs of the singers are always a most awesome device. Great sound!
    Favorite U2 track... that’s a tough one because U2 has had many eras and sounds. But here are a few:
    1- I will follow
    2- two hearts beat as one
    3- In God’s Country
    4-until the end of the world
    5- Lemon
    6- Discotheque
    7- in a little while
    I’ll leave it there, I haven’t really followed U2 ‘s work since after the “everything that you can’t leave behind “ album.

    My favorite U2 song is Red Hill Town. I like their early stuff a lot, despite the haters and the damage they've done to their own reputations with later cash-in albums.
    You really nailed this and I enjoyed this deconstruction/reconstruction greatly. Step one for me though, would be "learn how to play the guitar".

    What is everybodys favorite album?
    Seventeen Seconds for me!
    Disintegration too, but that's a different vibe

      100% agree. The dark Goth threads in the Three Imaginary Boys LP were unambiguously woven into goth cloth in 17 Seconds.

      Can’t decide between Faith and The Head On The Door.
