[QUOTE]Originally posted by Tahna Los: [QB] Okay, my girlfriend and I have just had a "heated" discussion on whether Backstreet Boys are better than U2, and vice versa. So, I've decided to settle the matter here once and for all. Perhaps you guys can help me out here. [IMG]http://flare.solareclipse.net/smile.gif[/IMG] My arguments (U2 is better than Backstreet Boys) - They've been here for 20 years plus, and they're still making music. - They've actually won Grammys. - The Joshua Tree and Achtung Baby. Enough said. - Backstreet Boys only concentrate on sappy and very repetitive, meaningless songs. U2's songs have more variety (though they're quite political) - Backstreet boys are basically a teenybopper group, focusing only on an audience full of screaming girls. - U2's lyrics are considered to be great poetry ("I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" is standard reading at my high school, believe it or not) GF's arguments (Backstreet Boys are better than U2) - U2 is nothing more than a Guy group (I dispute this 100%) - Since when was the last time that U2 was nominated for the Grammys? And who just got nominated for the Grammys this year? - The Joshua Tree and Achtung Baby came out WHEN? - The Backstreet Boys have best selling albums right now. Does U2 have any at this very moment? - GF loves romantic songs. U2 probably has only 5 of them. Backstreet Boys? Well......... - Backstreet Boys are considered to be part of today's generation of music (Dance, R&B, etc). U2 is nothing more than a mere fossil (get with the times, guys.......) - U2 is old (the members are in their FORTIES now!! Too old!!). Backstreet boys are young. And they look cuter too. - U2's concert in Toronto sold out within 2 hours. Backstreet Boys concert sold out within 20 minutes. So, does anyone want to dispute the above facts? Of course GF maintains that the Backstreet Boys have sold more albums than all of U2 combined. I say she's wrong, that U2 sell alot of albums, and some of their best albums are being sold to this very day. But of course, she asks the question "Did they sell a million copies last year?" Help Here? Thanks. [IMG]http://flare.solareclipse.net/smile.gif[/IMG] [/QB][/QUOTE]
