120 Questions

Why did U2 get terrible?

This is a very subjective question. I know a lot of people who love U2 and still like everything they put out. My parents and several people I know went to their last concert and it was packed filling an entire stadium.

Personally, I haven't really liked U2 since their early days and I haven't liked any of their newer albums starting w/ Zooropa. They started inserting too much pop into their rock for my tastes.

Where did the name black sabbath come from?

There's a lot of speculation about this. The band themselves tend to indirectly cite a 1963 horror film of that name by Boris Karloff. Others have speculated that the US Acid Rock band Coven, and their 1969 album, Witchcraft Destroys Minds and Reaps Souls is where it was pulled from, citing the first track of that album (which was titled "Black Sabbath") and that Coven had a bassist who had taken on the name of Oz Osbourne (at the time of the release of the Coven album, Ozzy Osbourne was playing bass for a band called Magic Lanterns as John Osbourne). While the second makes for a more fantastic story, personally, I find the first one more likely.
