You too boy (or girl).
Where were these guys in 1980? On a Tuesday night while working in an independently owned record store, I opened one of two copies of an album entitled Boy by an unknown band from Ireland named U2. I’ll never forget the feeling that went through my body as I was left speechless by the first track, "I Will Follow". I later turned-on my roomate who was from just outside NYC and my entire dorm onto this little known band. It is hard to believe it has been nearly 25 years. The folks at Christianity Today would not have reviewed U2/Boy 25 years ago. I wonder why I am bothered by their covering them now?

Yeah, I don't think they would have reviewed them back then, either. But it's exciting to see them doing it now. U2 is the best Christian-but-not-in-your-face-Christian band in the world. And this is exactly what 'Christian' bands should be, in my humble opinion ;)
