I wish I could get behind Native Son, it's better than Vertigo at least but Bono singing those lyrics makes me cringe outta my skull lmao



Crumbs is so good, carries the back half of the original album single handedly

Album Rating: 3.0

lol thats more than fair for sure i mostly just like that payoff that they bafflingly cut to make vertigo proper

Album Rating: 3.0

happiness and origin are two of my least favs from these sessions but if you swap them with are you gonna wait forever and smile we're cookin

Album Rating: 2.3

don't mind that at all apart from Happiness (I don't even remember what Original sounds like lol)



I guess I'm one of the few Pictures truthers here, I love that dirty guitar tone and I think the Xanax and wine hook is so much stronger. "I know these fast cars will do me no good" is such a nothing line to hang a song on

I can’t be the only one who loves Vertigo? Absolute tune.

Album Rating: 3.0

its mostly that bono sounds fuckin awful during the outro lol kinda tanks it for me. otherwise theyre about on par

Album Rating: 3.0

aw i really vibe with origin! feels like an experiment that actually worked out for them (but might also be due to its context within this album)

vertigo has aged absolutely horribly. certified banger when i was 8 and spoke neither english nor spanish nor french tho

Album Rating: 2.3
