It makes me feel like such a sap, but, I really do like both Coldplay and The Killers way more now that they're both trying to sound like U2. Like it's insanely obvious to me, the guitar parts are SO Edge, and even *I* do double-takes when Killers or Coldplay come on the radio and I get all excited and my brain says "YAY U2--- oh wait no it's not is it??? no wait this is--- oh yeah."

But I still freaking love what they've been doing lately, it's so big and vast and gorgeous and passionate and wonderful all over.
