The Thursday Canon: U2

[katstevens.livejournal.com]

It's nearly Easter! As most of our poptimists will be supping fine beverages at the Union Tavern tomorrow, the Good Friday Canon has been shifted forward to Maundy Thursday Canon. And who better to feature than everyone's favourite Cafflick* boys, U2. What a rubbish name for a band! It hasn't stopped Bono and the boys being really rather successful though, 39 hits = 13 ticks for you lot to dish out...

*NB This may be untrue but whatevs I needed a tenuous link.

Yes actually. Both total shit from start to finish but:

"Rattle and Hum" - joke on them.
"Achtung Baby" - joke on us.

Wack beats

Also there has never been a band who took less benefit their discovery of programmed rhythms than U2. Yes, including the Soup Dragons.
