Right now, I have "City of Blinding Lights" by U2, and I honestly thought they'd brought themselves to a point where I could no longer listen to anything new they put out (didn't care for the last two albums, and Vertigo just grates on me) but this song is the same kind of powerful romantic (if not a bit cliche at moments) rock that I love from U2.
Quote:
The more you see the less you know
The less you find out as you go
I knew much more then than I do now
Neon heart, day-glow eyes
The city lit by fireflies
They're advertising in the skies
For people like us
And I miss you when you're not around
I'm getting ready to leave the ground
Oh you look so beautiful tonight
In the city of blinding lights

Aside from the refrains, the rest of the song is only OK, but the first minute of it is enough to make me totally love it. Until I hear it a squillion times!
