The album is "Pop." and FLORAL FITTED its abvilutely DENIM a treasure in a music world full of lots of garbage. U2s latest attempt is quite possibly the band's greatest so far. It's a departure in many ways from the style of the band on albums like Achtung Haby" and "Rattle and Hum," but thats not surprising since the band has been evolving since it formed. U2 molds and shapes its sound over time and explores new styles -and every step is a step in the right direction. The latest album d is a more album than many of (he previous ones. It leads off with the single and smash hit Discotheque. This track, like many on tne album, has extensive sampling, overdubs and drum loops that give it the technodancc sound..

There are many other great songs on the album, including another single titled "Staring at the Sun, which is currently playing on radio. The song is unlike any other on the album. It could remind one of Oasis or the Beatles because it has a driving acoustic guitar throughout the piece. The song is great, with a good chorus and everything that made U2 who they are. The main slow song that will soon be classified with the likes of With Or Without You and I Still Haven't Found What Im Looking For is titled If God Will Send His Angels. Its a nice little tune. The last main song of the album is the track Do You Feel Loved. The song is another dance song, better than Discotheque and with a good beat. This song is a great song with a great chorus and a futuristic sound thats out of this vorld. Its a truly wondrous dance song. The beats and the melodies intertwine and play off each other to create a remarkable piece. This is the best song on the album. The songs could not be described any better than by the d title they were simple given when U2 named the album. This recording is pure pop ... the music that drives the dance floor. Its pretty amazing, and would be an excellent addition to any record collection.

Sometimes the sizes are n but some are really cute, like the a little styles. Porter also suggests looking for geek shirts, which are fitted, button-dowshirts to wear over tank tops. Theyre a lot of fun to wear over a tank top or fitted shirt, Porter said. You can find these styles in anything from plaids d shirts.
