I dunno about universally popular since we all went to catholic schools and U2 was very very popular. Joshua tree is one of my favorite albums- basically everything they did through Achtung baby is great but like I said- it hits different if your are steeped in Irish catholic culture and I grew up in Montgomery county MD.
