  • He hasn´t changed at all. He just has completely lost fear to popular success.

    They don´t write or play music to be in magazines. The fact they are is a random thing.

  • It's interesting seeing the guy ask them what was next after Rattle And Hum, knowing that in 3 years, they were going to chop down the Joshua Tree with Achtung Baby.

  • The press was nice to them back then...whereas the press is totally shitty to them now and has been since I remember

  • lol, ''name 3 bands who are crap and sold more records than you'' classic!

  • @troubleontheline66 Yep. Should have given them two words- Zoo TV.

  • wow adam's answers are very good articulated, he is smart

  • LOL! At 1:55 "we're not going to do anymore of these big world tours"! Ahh, the modest days of U2.

  • That Woman at 7:25 - 7:35 who asked the question about '25 Years Time', I wonder if shes still around now, but its 22 Years now since this Interview took place and her question has been very nearly answered.. they're still in the business and as big as ever!

  • And it's to the point where they could record an album of power tool noises in a garage, and win 8 Grammys for it.

    They're lost all the magic for me a long time ago. Now it seems that U2 is just a brand name. More of a corporation than a band.

    It takes more than over-the-top space ship stage productions to keep my interest. But that's the only thing that's going to save that piece of crap NLOTH.

  • They're not going to do long tours anymore?

    Kinda' backfired.

  • could you tell me what that guy says at 6:26?

    I really don't understand him D:

    thank you for another great interview!!

  • 'Cause they care more about selling records nowadays than creating great music. Right now, they've gone off the original mission of writing more original non-mainstream music because NLOTH didn't hit the charts enough. U2 is not as it was.
