    Sorry in advance to whoever put up AC/DC in the Final. Great song, an absolute classic, but it's not about weather... sorry. :54:

    Rattle and Hum was good album also after Joshua Tree, and then it went...

    I agree with you guys, it went a bit pear shaped for me after that and I found I would like certain songs but couldn't listen to whole albums, then I really loved All That You Can't Leave Behind Album but lost interest in most other stuff....my youngest brother is a big U2 fan and apart from most of the mega hits, we have totally different likes and dislikes.

    One of old members in here, a big U2 fan said that he would end up slitting his wrists listening to their songs that I liked, as I prefer the slower mellow ones and he prefers the faster upbeat ones.

    My love for U2 is mostly nostalgic, haven't been to a gig for a good few years and probably wouldn't go again.

    I've only seen them twice, when they did the Love Comes to Town tour with BB King, and then the Zoo TV tour in the early 90's. Although it had only been like 3 or 4 years, there were times when I wondered if I was watching the same band when was at that Zoo show. They were so good in 1988, and now they were completely over the top act, that was almost a satire of itself. I guess no great shock that the last album of theirs that I bought was Achtung Baby, and admittedly liked the album far more than the stage show. However, it was very clearly the beginning of a new direction, the turning point.

    I get that artists like anyone, and not just talking about U2 here, should seek to evolve, lest they stagnate, and just as artists can choose their own directions and choices, so do we as fans have shifting tastes and have that same choice of whether we connect with the new material as much as appreciate what they did, back when. There is no right or wrong in it; it's just the way it is.

    The song didn’t have to be specifically about weather it just needed to have a weather condition in the title mate :50:
