Zooropa by U2 » One Minute Album Review » Lemon, Some Days Are Better Than Others, The First Time
Музыка
Though often treated and thought of like a lesser companion to Achtung Baby, it's the subtle differences in sound, concept, and pace that make Zooropa work in its own unique way.
On U2's 8th album, there's a palpable sense that anything is possible, so long as we "get our head out of the mud". Can technology save us? I'd hope we'd all say NO by this point, and that seems to be U2's point as well.
Though not every track is a winner on the level of Achtung Baby or The Joshua Tree, there are several classics: the title track, "Stay", "Some Days" and "The First Time" are all great, but it's the absurdly glorious and transcendent 4th track, "Lemon", that is the biggest masterpiece here.
By learning how to laugh at themselves, U2 took their art to the next level with Zooropa. It may be the biggest enigma in their catalog, one giant question mark, but maybe that's the point! To get lost, without a compass or a map, with no reason to get back.

The composition and arrangement of Zooropa is at another level, heck Achtung Baby, Zooropa and POP, is the Theedge creating master pieces of guitar arrangements and music production during the 90s, your so right And I have no compass And I have no map And I have no reasons No reasons to get back And I have no religion And I don't know what's what And I don't know the limit The limit of what we've got
