There are ABBA songs, and then there's...

I don't particularly like U2, nor to be honest was I ever a great fan of Johnny Cash but goddamn he nails this one big time. Effing bloody brilliant, beats the keerap out of the original.

I've never heard a U2 that I didn't want to turn off?

Hell...I don't know , but they dressed up as Revolutionary soldiers...Paul Revere and the Raiders....get it...?   and often did this dorky stage act while they played, but as I said they wrote some nice rock for the day.

People used to make fun of their outfits, etc,  but these guys wrote some ass kicking rock and roll for their time.....

not my cup of tea, but this song is special :
Music is the refuge of souls ulcerated by happiness.

Don't know about genius but yes.


Liliental is the least interesting kraut-band I've encountered but Nachsaison grooves nicely



The rest of Lyn Christopher's only album is pretty useless (helped by Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley pre-Kiss)



The Three Degrees do not always suck but has one psychsoul-pop standout 



Bill Cosby sucks at everything including being a human being but Martin's Funeral is still great

Never cared for Disturbed, but "Prayer" and their cover of "Land Of Confusion" were stunningly good.
