- Like a Song: Gone February 8, 2012[Ed. note: This is the 64th in a series of personal essays by the @U2 staff about songs and/or albums that have had great meaning or impact in our lives.] I like the Pop album. There, I said it. I know I’m in the minority, but I think it’s a solid record that has been underrated ever since its release 15 years ago. It’s not a perfect album, […]

The kid from Silverchair claims that he smoked pot with Bono, Peter Garrett, and his wife Natalie Imbruglia and people believe him?!
I mean, the pot thing with Bono and the bald guy from Midnight Oil (that’s him, right?), no bother… but Kurt Cobain Jr. married Natalie Imbruglia?!
Give us a break!

Oh my god! Bono listened to a Silverchair album? What a wanker! I’ve lost total respect for Bono. At least he smoked a joint to block out Silverchair and erase it from his memory, he gets respect for that.

Yeah right. So what’s next, Bono making a statement that he did smoke a joint, but didn’t inhale? Pahlease! ‘U2 are very anti-drugs’, yes, however, they are Irish, so alcohol, one of the most devastating harddrugs in the world, is consumed in large quantities. Stick to the grass, it’s probably healthier! Then again, I’m from Amsterdam…

I think the hoopla is mostly about Garrett’s involvement, as a politician.

How could Bono, Peter Garrett, Daniel Johns and Natalie Imbruglia sleep while the bed was burning?

As the lead singer of Anthrax once said about Silverchair: Just because they’re fifteen doesn’t give them the right to suck.

Daniel Johns made such a big mistake! He was wishing he was there smoking a joint with Bono, but come september, he’s gonna wanna take back that day.

Has anyone here actually listened to Silverchairs “Young Modern” Its an absolute classic, better that anything U2 has done since zoorapa.
For a 27 year olds, they have a good back catelegue and have about 13 years of quality left in them.

“Zoorapa”? Is that the hiphop album Bono was going on about in the late 1990s?
Better than Pop/ATYCLB/HTDAAB combined? That’s a matter of opinion, mate. By the way, you’re not Nick Launay are you?
