Pink it´s my new obsession
Pink it´s not even a question
Pink on the lips of your lover, ´cause
Pink is the love you discover
Pink as the bing on your cherry
Pink ´cause you are so very
Pink it´s the color of passion
`Cause today it just goes with the fashion
Pink it was love at first sight, yea
Pink when I turn out the light, and
Pink gets me high as a kite
And I think everything is going to be all right
No matter what we do tonight
You could be my flamingo
´Coz pink is the new kinda lingo
Pink like a deco umbrella
It´s kink - but you don´t ever tell her
Pink it was love at first sight
Pink when I turn out the light
Pink gets me high as a kite
And I think everything is going to be all right
No matter what we do tonight
I want to be your lover
I wanna wrap you in rubber
As pink as the sheets that we lay on
Pink is my favorite crayon, yeah
Pink it was love at first sight
Pink when I turn out the light
Pink it´s like red but not quite
And I think everything is going to be all right
No matter what we do tonight

This is why U2 got my vote
and they didn't get mine because Bono thinks being in a rockband makes him an instant politician.

and what is wrong with using personal fame to get a point across about poverty stricten africa? Need more people like him reviving interest into politicians regarding this issue, if you think that's a bad thing (with the fan base that listens to him) then you're a very warped individual.

Bono's political statements did not start with live 8.

Don't tell me you don't like Woody Guthrie, Bob Dylan, Pink Floyd, Rage Against The Machine, or about any rock band from the late 60s/early 70s?
 
U2 found a certain style - the slow, drawn-out, synthesized pop-song - and made song after song in that mold. Catchy, but cookie-cutter. My vote is for Aerosmith, even though perhaps you could make similar arguments against them.
 
It's fun to watch the kids vote for todays crap pop. 🙂 U2 came out when I was a teenager. They were OK then, not great. Now they are not even a shadow of their own past glory.

Aerosmith FTW.

Well, Aerosmith has only been putting out crap for fifteen years or so, whereas pretty much everything U2 has done has been crap, that makes this an easy vote.

And there you have it.
 
U2 used to be cool. Until they became wealthy and fat. Then all the songs about Northern Ireland ended.
Fvck them. I can't stand Bono any more.

Aerosmith for teh win. These guys are real rockers. Drugs, sex, rock'n'roll.
 
Two great bands from different genres aka this poll blows. Your other polls were at least 'genre relative', but this is where you lose me. I like both bands, for different songs and reasons,. but if it's one or the other, I gotta have the U2, as they have more variety and better songs, imho.
