They might be the most successful band in history that\u2019s also the most misunderstood. I try to get past the hype, the personality, and the mischaracterizations, and go straight for the music.\nI also go through their entire discography, and end with a few big takeaways, some of which might surprise you.\nAre you a U2 fan? If so, have you been able to follow them through all their changes and despite any media backlash? If you\u2019re not a fan, did you used to be & aren\u2019t anymore, or did you never like them? What do you think most defines them as a band? Discuss dammit!\n~~~\n*intro music credit: REC - "Wake Up High"\nLearn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
