There are a few U2 songs that (even) I will cop to liking quite a bit.Still Havent' Found what I'm Looking ForHeck, there's even a R.E.M. song or two that I could probably tolerate hearing again, now that 30-plus years have passed since being inundated by their music in the lab at work.

Could never really cotton to their music, but my biggest problem with them is "The Mouth" Bono.

I was actually a big U2 fan, but Bono got a little too political for my liking. I’ve got a concert DVD (don’t remember which one), but he was doing so much talking I finally turned it off and I’ve never played it again.Things work out best for those who make the best of the way things work out.-John Wooden -
I like how Bono collected millions for charity and almost gave those millions to charity Overhead, doncha know. 🤫Sal Palooza

Hopefully those R.E.M. songs are pre-1988.
They jumped the shark once they signed the big record deal with Warner Bros. The older IRS records were good, except for the Fables album.

I sorta like em...
Love U2. Not all of their stuff, but there are some all time greats in there IMO.
Never noticed whatever the political stuff was that apparently might have alienated some. As with most artists, I listen to their music, not their speeches or interviews.
Alea jacta est! -
To add to my previous comments, I still listen to U2 and think they have a ton of great songs. Regarding the political stuff, it’s not even stuff that I necessarily disagreed with (sometimes it was about Ireland’s politics), but I just don’t want to hear that stuff if I go to a concert or if I’m watching a concert DVD. I’m paying to hear your musical talent, not your political opinion.Things work out best for those who make the best of the way things work out.-John Wooden -
The U2 fan base is 54.7% female, 45.3% male.

For the record, my response about U2 was just for fun. I pay no attention to any bands political affiliation or stance. I just saw an opportunity for a funny response and took it. Yeah, I agree that if you go to a concert? You go to see them and listen to their music, not get lectured on what they think about on a political level.
I actually haven't listened to U2 in a while. They do have some good tunes but there is SO much great music out there, getting rotation in is hard to do sometimes.
