COBL for me. Everything about it is average. Which pretty much set the tone for the coming years

City of Blinding Lights.

The piano intro makes me cringe. The slide guitar is godawful.

How that song is still in U2’s setlist after all this time is beyond me. I can’t remember the last time I haven’t skipped it.
A dangerous idea that almost makes sense...

It was either nothing or COBL so I voted COBL.

I can listen to the song without vomiting, but it’s not very good.

We live in a very strange world where SYCMIOYO is voted worse than COBL. I can’t think of a single thing to recommend about the latter.

Original of the Species.

It starts out well but then become cringe. Also it was Steve Jobs favorite.

Bono once chased Steve Jobs all the way out to the carpark, hauling his (Jobs', that is) IV drip with him, to tell him an extra time to go fuck himself.  The guy had real moxxie for his size.

You're doing it, Gal.  Yes Grosvenor, yes Roundtree, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!

"Bono was so loud - it was incredible. For such a small man.   "

I read someplace that Bono has hobnobbed with a lot of big knobs in his time.

I voted Vertigo just because I think Native Son is a little better, but yeah now that I think about it, I probably like Vertigo a little more than I like COBL. So add one to the COBL total.

Bono's name spelt backwards is Oh Nob, which if you change the first word is Small Knob. Which is interesting.
