I think the songs are fine as they are. It's just the album as a whole lacks any sort of cohesion. I rarely listen to it from A-Z, just pick out songs etc.
The problemn for me is they sound too pissed off. There a little to old to sound that mad.
Bono did say Edge was showing a lot of spleen on the album, slightly overstated I think, I think the anger is justified, ala Love and Peace or Else, I love it!
for me, musically it was great album, as good as any before it. but theres something missing. i dont no what it is. but when you listen 2 any 1 song off that album on its own its sounds fantastic! listen to the whole album, and theres something not quite right. Larry admitted that the songs 'lacked emotion'. i mean apart from SYCMIOYO and LOPOE the songs do lack passion. the mood of songs like One stop closer might be emotional, but the songs arnt really delivered that way.

somehow, its an average album of great songs.
am i making any sense?
Yes, you are. I think that its their best album, easily. I don't think that it lacked anything. But all artists will always deny that their music is good. Imagine if Bono or anyone else from the band looked at this forum! I wonder what they would say...

I get you - I don't think there's a genuine continuity in the feel of the album. I mean, like you say, some great songs on there, but I think it's the result of having so many different producers working on the album. Whereas you look at something like JT or AB, there's a feel all the way through that really captures something defining, whereas with HTAAB it just doesn't flow...

lo sabias? The song 'I Will Follow' is about Bono's undying love and devotion to his mother, who died while Bono was still a very young boy. This song pays homage to the fact that death cannot sever love.

"In the shower, which is a natural echo chamber, I sing like I never have sung on a record. But the way I always try to sing on records. Completely bollocks naked!"
