U2 - Stories For Boys

[DogbiteOW]

Excellent. Just excellent.

[MichaelD8393]

U2 are the pioneers of alternative rock.

[SuperMegaUberGenius]

it happened today, the dismantling.



[MultiGeorge6]

wowwww excelent .......

[rediryou]

This in hind sight is so wonderful to hear. U2 had no idea where they were headed and had no cares about it. They were doing what it was that they were doing for what ever reason and it took the world by storm. I remember this one, I loved it. This song took this young boy away into a rich stream of imagination that I will never forget.

[potsnacher]

They never fail to impress !

[MishuTaste]

@mikailmari I agree. Sometimes success kills the raw spirit of good bands.

[TheLibrarian2000]

Post-punk puro y auténtico :D

[die2no]

@mikailmari hell yeah sad they became gay,i think the real u2 got got abducted in 1985 and aliens has replace them everyone since

[thelargge]

The guitars are just freakin great all over this album, real serious top shit post-punky superb ART

[TheMetalpocalypse]

I like old and new U2. It's like 2 great bands in one.

[U2girl88]

@TheMetalpocalypse well said my friend

[kgrsx]

love this song!! 

[vfreddy95]

U2 is the best! Just listen to this and their now song Glastonbury! How much they've changed! and do we still love them? YES! HELL YES!

[MuckeyMagic]

AND THEY'RE IRISH!!!!!! HAHA Come on the Pad's.....

[coolbluezzzz]

i wish u2 continued making music like this

[TheNonola]

U2 justified the 80s!

[MagicHetero]

@TheNonola and 90s man hehe achtung baby zooropa all that zoo tv was there for 3 years and then pop it was an even better thing than 80s u2 and something new-er than ever multimedia event with chaos of information i would kill for that zoo tv concert

my favourite is daddy is gonna pay for your crashed car live because it so funky

only thing funkier is Blood Sugar Sex Magik album

[jamrock33179]

U2 will Rock on forever...Blessed Souls!

[Burncourtable]

We have never had a band last as long or been as relevant as U2. That's why they come in for a lot of criticism because people simply have nothing to compare them to. i expect that our children's children will play u2 records.

[MagicHetero]

@Burncourtable well u2 and zz top are the most lasting band zz top lasted circa 10 years more u2 are from 76

[RaZoRsHaRpScReW]

this album is wonderful.......

from the beggining to the end...

[househeadericmd]

BEST LOST track by U@ no doubt!

[ChuckyTheGoat]

@househeadericmd Yep, awesome song from Boy.

[karenferg28]

@mikailmari one of my alltime fave albums

[karenferg28]

one of my most fave albums

[shtstirrer]

i laugh at everyone who tries to make this song to be more than what it is. it doesn't suck, but it's hardly a classic either.

it's par for the course as far as an 80s pop/punk/rock/whatever song goes - nothing more , nothing less.

get a grip you fanboys.

[alleghenyman]

@shtstirrer Oh ok thanks for straightening that out

[extreme67]

U2 wrote "Miami"

[gpf429]

What an awesome flashback.....absolutely brilliant......

[mailbox827]

When I was in Dublin in April I went to see the "U2 wall" in Windmill Street where all their early stuff was recorded. Of course it was just a graffiti-strewn backstreet, deserted with it being a Sunday. It was only afterwards I realised I had been on a pilgrimage .....

[OhHonestlyDear]

how many bands make music for 30 years without running a bit wayward every now and again? None!! they've got an extrordinary catalogue.

[walrys11]

@OhHonestlyDear The Beatles

[YouWontChangeMe]

U2 were a band only during the eighties, all their albums were amazing back then from boy to rattle and hum, too bad bono forgot their purpose was to make good music, i would suggest to irish people to ressurect phil lynot, your only hope :D

[colonia8]

@Youwontchangeme

I agree 100%

[Killarapp]

Go ask anyother band to write a later u2 song. Not even R.E.M managed to keep the hits per album ratio up as high as U2, and I love those guys.

[johanesjuanes]

@YouWontChangeMe what ? The best u2 for me is with achtung baby............ and how to dismantle an atomic bomb is a great album too.........

[r1skate]

.. only emotions...

[coolbluezzz]

Its amazing how much bullshit your ears can hear because u2 dont make music anything like this anymore -- its always changing but not for the better

[r1skate]

True!

[jon3m2007]

best bet is to watch vids ur into?

[DieSchwartzmann]

It's amazing how U2 have managed to keep the same sound throughout their entire 30 year career. Of course, they got melodic later on, but they still have no problem writing songs like this. I'd say amazing, but they were on top of their game when they started- no juvenile punk songs for them.

[HarmonicsExplorer]

U2 had their share of juvenile, but refined, 'punkish' and non punk songs in the late '70's and 1980, e.g.  Trevor, Inside Out, The Fool, Boy/Girl, False Prophet, The Dream Is Over, Jack in the Box, Learning to Live My Life, ...

[DrMattDestruction]

COWBELL!

[shadowspork]

Awesome song from such an awesome album!

Even though Vertigo does sound like Stories For Boys, they work well together if you mix the two songs together right.

[keegantom]

U2 ! irish ! pure eire blood. love yeah keegantom X X X up the Dubs.

[pdhbv]

" Sometimes a hero takes me

Sometimes I don't let go

Hello Hello

(...)

Hello Hello 'ola'

Im at a place called Vertigo "

[celestialcity9]

I can't wait for the new U2 album- No Line On The Horizon

[AdyPole]

getcha boots on U2!

[isuse33]

The best ever! Nobody touches my boys U2! They rock 4ever!

[chrissybowser]

[JIF882]

Actually, Joshua Tree was remastered last year. Now, Boy, October, and War July21

[bongotromen]

[redjaguar2]

I can't wait until the remaster of Boy comes out in July. I fell in love with U2 because of this song.

[JIF882]

I was going to get it the other day @ BestBuy, but got October and War instead. I will get Boy in a week or so. Finally, Bow w/ it's original cover

[skinnyirishman]
