Being Boring VS One

Ok, so some people may think this a stretch but hear me out.

Being boring to m e is on the same level as U2 One.. it's a haunting song dealing with the past, present & future and also has talks of the A.I.D.S deaths that where rising at the time. While ''ONE'' Mearly hinted at that, Being Boring is a lot more open in nature about it's meanings.

I find Being Boring to be one of the best singles of the 90's and i find it on the same level as One, it just didn't have the same type of success sadly.

But that is just my viewing, what do you orgers think?

The full song without the video

Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener

lol

Maybe the title is a bit misleading!

I'm not totally saying say which is better... i'm asking if people think Being Boring is on the same level musically as One wink I may sound crazy.

But giving the right amount of expose it could have had the same impact...
