Who's ready to kneel down, accept U2 as one of the 2-3 best bands of all time?

It's real. You know it feels so right. Kneel down and take their greatness inside. Let it wash over you and make you whole again. Embrace Bono. Experience your baptism. Be resurrected from the flame. Be lifted to eternity by his words and edge's heavenly riffs. Let go. Let them wash your sins away and carry you--breathless--to Vallhalla.

I really like U2 except when people say they're one of the top 2-3 greatest bands ever, which is at least every other day.

Top 2-3 bands ever? No not even close. They are a good band, but they're not an all time band.

Their horrible version of "North and South" turned me off the entire band. There's a reason that everybody who covers that song uses the Christy Moore version (Christy Moore wrote the song with Bono).

They aren't even in my top 3 from Ireland. I'd rate Van Morrison, Rory Gallagher and Thin Lizzy ahead of them.

Um no. Not after Rattle and Hum and definitely not after Achtung Baby.

U2 fricking blows. They are worst than Phish and that's a hard feat to accomplish.

Their persistence alone puts them in the Top 100. The fact that they've made some competent albums over 4 different decades is unheard of. Top 2-3 though... Na. Top 50 probably. Top 25...maybe.
