I'm a complete U2 Freak! I bought this item becuase I needed it to complete my collection. This is the 3rd version of "How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb" I've purchased. It's one of their greatest albums since the late 80's. I highly enjoyed the DVD documentary that comes with this special edition. Also, the book that comes with this album is very interesting to look through too. A great purchase. A great price. And it's auction's proceeds went to Warchild charity.
As advertised and arrived on time
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
Fantastic Product, thank you and well worth buying I love U2 and had my copy stolen. And so I was very happy to find it and also find it included a DVD of the songs which my copy did not have. Thank you well pleased.
I owned a copy of this CD when it was first released but I somehow managed to loose it recently between car and house.I was looking at other things on Ebay and just by chance thought I would see if my treasured CD was for sale. When I found this copy I put in my bid and won. I am a HUGE U2 fan and have followed Bono and the lads since they first emerged from Ireland. This CD encompasses what I call quintessential U2. The haunting guitar echo, skillfully plucked by The Edge, resonates in Crumbs From Your Table, Larry's thunderous drumming in Love And Peace while Adam's bass like a melodical heart beat ties the instruments into a musical bouquet. Then theres Bono. This CD was an emotional one for him, dealing with his Fathers death he reflects on the relationship between them on Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own-a song that we can all relate to at some stage in our lives. He writes as he sings and sings as he writes. Poetic and heartfelt but able to kick it when he has a message to get across. I love him. Did I dislike anything about this Cd at all? Well yeah, I did actually-I disliked when it ended!Read full review
I must admit that I'm the kind of person who tends to buy a CD, almost on impulse, often having only heard one of the songs from the album, and sometimes not even fully sure if I like it. Well, U2's "how to dismantle an atomic bomb" is possibly the best example of this currently in my CD collection. I purchased this album a while ago, based on my liking on the immensely popular hit single "Vertigo," only to find that a while after, I was utterly sick of its tendency to be over played on the radio, to the point where I no longer found any enjoyment in listening to it. Luckily for me, the rest of the album was to be nothing like the first single, and every track, much slower, and more enjoyable to listen to. So, despite the manner in which this album was originally purchased, it remains one of the favourite albums in my collection, with the second single "Sometimes you can't make it on your own," with a firm place in my pile of all time favourites, with many other tracks on the album, also coming very close.Read full review
