Mark from Austin, TxFirst off, U2 is not necessarily a "Christian band." They are a band with mostly Christians in it (at least one of them is not, I think) and Christianity informs their music a lot of the time.you do know that bono did claim to be christ though dont you ? Brad from Knoxville, Tnthis song will give you sort of a bad sinister feeling,and for not being a christian they sure do have alot of christian background in thier music ,but the song is actually talking about the bombing in el' salvador,so you are sort of right.not all of the songs are neccesarily christian.El Salvador is a haunted place.that's the way it feels. But after visiting El Salvador myself in 1997 the song became clearer.and the harsh sound fit. Heather from Los Angeles, CaActually at first I didn't like this song.I think it's one of their best ever! From the greatest album ever! "Bullet" is a dark song.because it's a dark message. People who aren't Christians, seem to have a hard time admitting there fans of U2, when they know very well that the boys of U2 believe in Christ and the teachings of the Bible. Adam was always the one who didn't believe as the others, although in later years, I think, even Adam has come to develop some sort of spiritual belief. They don't like to put themselves into any particular denomination, but they believe in the Bible and as young men, believed in the Bible so much, that they struggled about whether to keep the band together. They almost didn't survive as a band because they DID and DO consider themselves Christians. Doris from Wilmington, DeActually, so many of you are wrong about U2.That's like comparing The Beatles with Oasis (a sad, pathetic attempt at greatness.) And please, let's not confuse U2 with Christian Rock. I just bought Rattle and Hum for the second time, still gets me. That is what makes U2 one of The Great Bands, they can inspire passion, sadness, anger, and, sadly, confusion, for those of the human race who have no idea that the world is not a great wonderful rosy place. So many of the songs in every generation are nothing but fluff, random or cheesy lyrics, they mean nothing.
Mel from Riverbank, CaWhether or not you agree with their message, at least U2 has a message.I would love to know what the band has ever had to say about this topic. the similarities are blatant and disappointing. who is this stealing a U2 classic?' Then the DJ came on and gave the name of the song and the year it was released now I've read the reviews here and I have to say, BTBS doesn't just sound 'something' like the Nugent song. But as I listenened, I realized the lyrics were different and then thought, 'Oh!.
Because U2 is one of my favourite bands, my first thought was 'Oh, who's this covering Bullet The Blue Sky?'.
