Thinking about how there must be bands who have far fewer fans* than U2 ever had but who still manage to have a greater number (absolute number not just proportion) of fans who say that band is one of their favorites ever.
I don’t know anyone who has never heard of U2.
I don’t know anyone who hates them.
But I also don’t know anyone who loves them.
*here “a fan” is someone who likes at least 3 of their songs and knows some of the lyrics and recognizes the band’s name
