Alright, I have this settled.
U2 is a great band, I don't care how much you deny it, but they've been around for a long time, and have had a wide variety of music. Their newer stuff is not too good (Pop, Zooropa, All that you can't leave, How to Dismantle), or mediocre for U2, but people act as if they are new because of their song Vertigo.
Overall, I'm tired of people saying "OMGA HE SEZ CATOARCE DAT MEENS FORTEN NET FOR", I have news for you, fuckwads. He says fourteen because it's their fourteenth album, so quit bitching. You really think that over many many times of listening and executives overviewing it before it being released, no one would have noticed?
Goddamn, don't listen to everything your precious, reliable, VH1 says.

An awesome band. You don't have too like them but there is not bad about them to say the suck so don't.

The most overrated band in the world, ever. They had a classic album called the Joshua Tree, which actually was outstanding (but it wasn't even the best album of '87, as that honor goes to Appetite For Destruction), and All I Want Is You was great and had an emotion-stirring video. They had some good singles, too, but no other completely great album. Everybody sucks their asses by calling them the greatest, and the media hypes them up, but they've made a career of making the same mundane, boring song. The Edge has played the same guitar line for years. Bono always tries to act like he is so cool, like when he was mugging for the camera in his sunglasses in that iPod commercial, for one example. He makes me sick with his self-righteousness. Their attempt to rock on the song "Vertigo" sounds like a sterilized and soul-less garage-rock production, as if to say "we want to rock hard, but not too hard that it will drive our fanbase away".

A scientific experiment designed to see how many times people would buy the same song with a different title.
also, the crappiest band ever. I'm sure they have a loyal fan base of gay people. they follow me everywhere, ipod commercials, coke commercials, and they're even played on classic rock radio stations, ? , I wish they would just shut up.

U2's the best rock group in the world of their music type, period. There's Led Zep in phychadelic rock, ColdPlay in alternative, and U2 in "heroic" rock (as their fans call it).
Formed in the late 70s, U2 have slowly but steadily risen to the very top of rock fame. Starting early with classics like "I Will Follow" and "New Year's Day", they have skyrocketed to global success and stardom. Although, many believe their "U2 Pop" album to be their biggest - only - flop. U2 just isn't cut out for pop, and they realized it soon enough. Thank God.
Other than their wonderful passion for their songs and music, they also - Bono in particular - have a large interest in humanitarian rights. Bono strives to eliminate third world debt and extreme poverty. U2 were also some of the most noticable groups in events like Live Aid (80s) and '05s Live 8. They reportedly stole the show in Live Aid, actually.
U2 are:
Paul David Hewson (Bono) - Lead vocals, rythm guitar, harmonica, stage beast
David Evans (The Edge) - Lead guitar, keyboards & piano, backing vocals, data master
Adam Clayton - Bass, posh incarnate
Larry Mullan Jr. - Drums & percussions, (rarely) backing vocals, humble rebel

'U2 sucks, man. They don't know shit about music.' - Jerk
'U2 doesn't suck, you do. Apparently, they know a little more than you do about music, my dumbass rap-and-punk loving friend.' - Me
