Every Billboard Modern Rock Chart #1 through 2005, listed in order of preference.  

228. U2, "Staring At The Sun"

April 12 - May 2, 1997



In which U2 beats Oasis at their own game, said game being the reduction of "Beatle-esque" to the most sluggish, dippy hippie-trisms. Bono sings about about insects scratching his ear (and Jesus) while the Edge's guitar gently rapes yours (and Jesus's). I know Ireland ain't England, but neither is Seattle, and Chris fucking Cornell does this kind of thing better. Inexplicable, excruciating ass.

In the shade of a willow tree
Creeps a crawling over me
Over me and over you
Stuck together with God`s glue
It`s going to get stickier too
