Silly question, U2's One is obviously more famous.

Both bands are equally ****.

Ok, Lemon was pretty ****ing cool, I thought Prince made that bitch when I first heard it, but that was 1993... The past 15 years... There is no way these are the same people that made 'Sunday Bloody Sunday' and 'Angel of Harlem'.

Even I know Metallica has a song called "One." You must be a special kind of stupid.

Fair enough


ETA: But check out this video for Stuck in a Moment You Can't Get Out of. It's pretty good imo.

i think it's tough to say metallica's one is more famous, though i guess it's possible that all those additional U2 fans don't know about their "one" but know metallica's. pretty unlikely.

I have vivid childhood memories of clicking MTV every 5 minutes hoping this video would come on,

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fBj2wsimvQ

and being ecstatic when it did. Some early U2 songs are still some of my favorite ever (the 3 I mentioned, 'new years day', few others) from any genre, it's probably why i'm disappointed they made all this drivel the past decade.

I love the Hobo U2 era. It's my favorite era.

And Justice For All was their first BIG album. This isn't really up for discussion. One was all over MTV at the time. That should say a lot right there.

Without looking it up, i would be willing to bet Achtung Baby sold 8x more copies worldwide than AJFA
