    Wow, reminds me of how awesome the buildings were :)

    They weren't that awesome. Architecturally speaking they were quite ugly and went no small way to ruining what had once been a beautiful art deco skyline.

    They were designed and built in the late 60's early 70's, they were not ugly... they became a symbol of New York... source please if you have one? Or is this your opinion?

    Obviously it is my opinion. But it's an opinion shared by others in the know also.

    The World Trade Center design brought criticism of its aesthetics from the American Institute of Architects and other groups.Lewis Mumford, author of The City in History and other works on urban planning, criticized the project and described it and other new skyscrapers as "just glass-and-metal filing cabinets".The twin towers' narrow office windows, only 18 inches (46 cm) wide, were disliked by many for impairing the view from the buildings.

    If you ever got to stand up on the sky deck of the South Tower, realise how high you were and then look across and see the North Tower next to you - then you would realise how awesome they were!

    I was up there a few times, and last time was just a few months before 9/11.

    For 10 months I used to walk past them on way to work and probably every day I had to stop for a look up.

    Very sad they're not there any more, and not forgetting all the people who died too!

    Personal Jesus is definately better live these days. I love the crunchy guitar bits the tired studio version doesn't have. It's still genius but I have just heard it so many times.

    Anyway my DM top 5 is probably :

    1. Home
    2. Insight
    3. Walking In My Shoes
    4. Shake The Disease
    5. World Full Of Nothing
