obscured reflections of my love

why do people like u2 i don’t understand

smiglo:

*le unpopular opinion here*

I like them a lot.

Because my first big gig I attended was U2 gig. Because of The Ground Beneath Her Feet and Million Dollar Hotel soundtrack. Because of the City Of Blinding Lights live. Because of New Year’s Day and the night when I cried like a child in my friend’s arms because I realized the man I loved for five years is not mine anymore. Because of The Joshua Tree and because of Anton Corbijn. Because of The Edge and singing Sto Lat to him on a gig. Because of Numb. Because of Sweetest Thing video. Because of Slane Castle. Because of Staring At The Sun. Because of The Story Of The Flag.

I’m posting this because I know my dear tumblarians are not some narrow-minded pricks and accept me even if they do not share every obsession with me.

Touching, smiglo. :) I like U2, too, but the only reason I have is that they’ve done some great songs.
