I never thought I would ever vote for Green Day but out of the two choices, Green Day is my vote.

Oh my. Calm down peeps!
If I recall correctly we shouldn't be veeeering into a mini-debate about a certain word.

What we should be doing is talking about which band is favorable!
And I wouldn't know. But that's not why I'm posting. *nod*

Now why would you vote for a drone spy plane?

... Oh, wait, that's U-2. My bad.

Anyways uh, this is a tough one. I don't really like a lot of U2's songs, buut before American Idiot I didn't like Green Day. :P

So I shall choose... U2!

the nice thing about green day is that in 2007, nobody will remember them

U2 on the other hand is awesome in every time :)

Ooh! Hard one this week.

After much throught, I've decided to vote for U2, basically because they both rock, but U2 has got more great songs than Green Day.

Same here (I think). Musically, Green Day isn't that bad (except many people allege the music for Boulevard of Broken Dreams was stolen from another song. You can find them lpayed over each other on the internet.) However, I cannot support a band that is as flamboyantly anti-American as them. I like U2 because they have good music, and Bono does good work without randomly accusing world leaders of wrongdoing.

If we're going by music only, I still go with U2.

Basically, it comes down to this:

Quality of music:

U2: 4/5
Green Day: 3/5

Lyrics:

U2: 4/5
Green Day: 1/5

Longevity:

U2: 5/5
Green Day: 3/5

Visual appeal:

U2: 4/5 (they're getting pretty old)
Green Day: 2/5 (guys shouldn't wear eyeshadow, even if they do look like Elijah Wood)

Non-band work:

U2: 5/5
Green Day: 2/5

Total:

U2: 22/25
Green Day: 11/25

By the way, I think you need to include some older bands in this. Journey is a must, and the Eagles would be good, too.
