I know that by confessing that I like U2, I am pretty much admitting I've reached middle age. Yet, I do like their music. Even more so, I appreciate their focus. People. Rock bands often call people "fans." But you get the sense that U2 likes their people. It's one of the reasons that they have been so successful, I think. 'Cause whatever you do, it's about people. Real, live people.
