This is so much better than Red Flag Day

I like pop songs - but when it's so horribly sticky and sweet, you think come on. These are 50-something men singing this. Not 19 or 26 year olds singing, and even then I'd wonder. Kind of like Madonna having a constant life crisis.
And if I heard them play Boots in place of this, I'd be happy because at least that has life, some soul, some experimental sound, something different, heavy, groovy, funky etc. This sounds like something that they thought WE MUST GET THIS ON THE RADIO. They should realise people who listen to the top whatever it is now, top 15, 40, whatever, don't care for U2. They didn't care for Best Thing, Song For Someone (and slow music is now the trend at 12bpm), American Soul (was that even a single?), Red Light, The Miracle whatever else came off SoE, SoI etcetera.
What even was U2's last 'hit' or 'radio attempt that went somewhere'? Was it Vertigo?

Ordinary Love had a lot of airplay in Holland and is still a regular
