In reply to My review of the new U2 cd...well a bit..anyone???, posted by Jay_Bravest_Face on February 25, 2009, at 0:04:25
I'm a big U2 fan. I own nearly all of their CDs (never could bring myself to buy Pop) and have seen them several times over the years going back to 1983. (Yeah, I'm that old...lol.)
Having provided that background info, I've listened to the new CD once. I'll have to give my review later, as you're right about it taking multiple listenings before it sinks in. I will say that I *think* I'll like it based on the first listen. And I'll add that I'm apparently one of the few who likes "Get On Your Boots", based on other opinions I've heard and read.
BTW for anyone who wants a free (and legal) way to check it out, it's streaming at their myspace page (www.myspace.com/u2). If I remember correctly, it's also streaming at u2.com as well.
