11. your lack of insight into a band who is obviously in the same league of U2
shows that your opinion on "popular" music cannot be taken seriously in this poll.

17. "Popular" huh?
U2 vs Aqua. Want to quantify the vast, vast difference in "popularity" there?

Um, U2 is still great no matter who the hell Aqua is.

24. Aqua is/was a horrible
techno band from the mid 90s. I was stationed in Europe in 97 and you could not go five feet in the club district without hearing "Barbie Girl" coming from every club.

Uggggghhhhhh.....

14. That's a tough call
With the one band, you have vocals that are shrill, vapid, and annoying. And then don't get me started on Aqua...

18. I have a weakness for bad techno...
And I have to say Aqua fulfills my cravings like no other band.
Yes, I still play "Aquarium" usually once a week.

25. Aqua...barely
Only because U2 did manage to write about 2.5 songs that I like. I suppose they could be considered statistical anomalies. Gaussian noise.
