Not in my book. Dreadful bollocks more like. I really began to loathe U2 when I saw Bono, at a festival, poncing about on stage and pontificating to a crowd; mostly made up of non-english speakers who understood very little of what he was saying. Lucky buggers!<br />Anyhow, I have that very same REM cassette -( http://www.flickr.com/photos/japaneseforms/5665625928/ ). A highpoint in their career; probably their best album. Was all downhill from there on as far as I'm concerned. And yes, 'Orange Crush' might bemy fave REM tune as well. I have the 3"cd and the 12" vinyl versions ( http://www.flickr.com/photos/japaneseforms/2674979464/ ). Got a couple of other REM cassettes too.<br /><br />P.S. Found a very nice cassette copy of U2's 'War' at a streetmarket this very morning. Paid the princely sum of 0,40€ for it. <br />japanese formshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05673959546447411673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2260733704738520084.post-58356421596278012912013-05-12T14:01:35.683+01:002013-05-12T14:01:35.683+01:00LGM

That TOTP performance - Sandie in a leather skirt - still makes my heart race, all these years later.

I didn't have anything to play it on (I had just started work & was saving hard for a stereo stack system) and I didn't realise the track was on an OMD album - no Google in them days. <br />.... now I just need to see if there is a CD version on Ebay....
