I have a friend that doesnt like U2.

I own 1 album,Despite not owning much of their work I still think they are fabulous, theyhave spanned the music world since the late 70's producing top quality singles which very few bands have done.I think they have earned a place in music history.

Do you either love them or hate them or is there an inbetween?

I liked some of their earlier stuff . . . but now it has gotten to the point where it all just sounds the same to me . . .

If you like listening to commercials, they're fine. I'm with Setanta, they were good in the 80s.

I think U2 is the Metallica of euro-pop. They were mind-blowing and totally original early-on, but their popularity and sense of "we've done it all already" has hindered their creative spirit.

Having said that, my answer is "in between."

Love them, but I do have to agree that many of their current songs sound so similar to past songs, that they have lost some their previous edge (pun intended).

Even so, I still love their music. I even bought scalped tickets in England from some one who could have been selling me fakes for all I knew - luckily I got in - nearly was trampled as the tickets were for general admission on a soccer field in Leeds. Did not go to the bathroom all day and night as my friend and I would have lost our prime spot and each other - and had a most fantastic time ever! I will never do it again though. That was in the mid-eighties - so I am I long standing fan.
