Wow, I'm starting to suspect you and WMG are smoking from the same bong.
Your second-to-last post about U2's last good song being Sweetest Thing seems a clear sign that you don't know them well enough. Then again, maybe you hated Walk On, Beautiful Day and Vertigo. (Opinions, opinions...)
Overall versatility: Anybody who truly pays attention to rock music, whether devoted fans or critics, speaks of U2's range and ambition. The Joshua Tree sounds nothing like War; Achtung Baby is like nothing they've done; Rattle & Hum was their homage to American legends; Pop was experimental as well (but their least-successful, no coincidence); How to Dismantle An Atomic Bomb was a solid shakeup after the mellow All That You Can't Leave Behind.
Hey, I love your Chili Peppers -- but they simply can't match that diversity. Where's their artistic growth after all these years? Better yet, it's your turn to explain how in the hell RHCP is more important than U2's music. This ought to be interesting...
