A problem I often bring up as to why U2s songs may be better known then U2 themselves is because when you listen to the radio it takes about 7-10 seconds to say "I Still Havent Found What Im Looking For" or any other song ever played on the radio. But how long does it take to say "U2".....about 1-4 seconds. So if you arent listening for even 1-4 seconds you'll miss who did the song. And I dont know about your radio stations, but most of the time they only tell you who each song is by in a list of 5 other songs 20 mins before they play them.

You know what I mean? They say blah blababah blah blahba u2 blahaba blah and blahaabaaba are coming up next. And then they go to commercial. They play two of the songs in a diff order from what they said they would be, then they go to commercial, play three songs in diff order from what was said, then finally after coming back from another commercial, they play the three more songs one which is U2, and how many people are really going to remember that the song was by U2. Half of them wont even hear that it was by U2.

Very unfortunate. It upsets me ALOT!
