U2 new single Get On Your Boots

Get On Your Boots.

Yea I know there's another thread containing this info but this is specific to the new single.
Think Discotheque meets Vertigo by way of The Fly. Add a bit of Fast Cars and you get the idea.
I think most U2 fans will dig it. Those who don't, prolly still won't.
And that's cool but for those on the fence, form your own opinions. cool
Came out last week. After many listens still dig it.
For those who've heard, you know.
For those who haven't here you go (again):

It doesn't matter how bland the song is, it's U2. People are going to act like it's the best single of 2009, however I am completely underwhelmed.

People seem to have a love/hate with U2 around here. I dunno.

I like some of their 80's stuff, especially the stuff that did not get on the radio. "Bad" comes to mind.

U2 is probably the best live-act around, Bono is probably one of the best singers, The Edge is up there.....

Get On Your Boots is probably their worst single..... neutral

Personally, I think All Because of You is their worse single in recent history.

Bad was a single

How do I love this song? Let me count the ways.
Actually, The Unforgetable Fire may be my fave U2 album. cool
