That ratio is tough, I mean there are plenty of really good songs with terrible, terrible videos.

U2 - Numb, for example.

I’m sorry, but did you just say a U2 song is really good?

I’m sorry, but U2 had a run of really good music.

Do not deny that Joshua Tree is up there in the top albums of rock music. Zooropa was an eclectic offering, but at least it was interesting.

Everything thing that U2 has ever done is the exact same horrible song.

false. Post-Zooropa, sure, but pre- they had a few solid albums.

I hope Mahk got a chance to listen to the song.

Wait, one of the best Cake songs of all time has a video? I thought they quit after The Distance, which was awesome.

I didn’t know anyone was capable of hating U2. I thought they were either tolerated or loved by everyone. I’m between.

I’m kind of confounded by the conversation actually. It’s pretty generally accepted in the circles I run that The Joshua Tree was ridiculously good as an album.

I love Cake, I mean I have plenty of their shirts and every one of their albums, so we all see eye to eye there. I guess they just aren’t open-minded enough to go back to 1991 and listen to a complete album. Their loss.

I’ve never seen this video. Thanks for sharing!

I think the video is beautiful, actually. So many people, so different. I thought it was well done.

Yeah, weird. I also feel that was objectively one of the best and most timeless rock albums ever.

I have always liked that song, but I have never seen the video. I think I’ll keep it that way.

1:45 of guitar and then “I wanna run” come on...great intro.

Okay, I watched the video. I thought the video was good, too.

I, too, would like to tour the facility. Is that a metaphor?

Anybody who says that U2 sucks was probably not born when they hit the scene. Whether or not you like their music now, U2 is a very important band in the history of music.

As I said to PotbellyJoe, I think that anybody who unreservedly hates U2 was not born when they hit the scene.

As a long time listener and first time watcher, I would have to agree.

I’ve never been a fan of CAKE.

This upsets me because every time I saw that, it sounds like I’m saying I’m not a fan of cake, but I like cake, just not CAKE.
