Ok, do you consider U2 to be judgemental? Cause if not then you are
being quite two-faced here...Being of course that you have confidently
transposed YOUR morals and values on these musicians to reflect your
own.

You must not forget to think less of other artists who have changed
the artistic/social world; Freud, Hunter S. Thomson, Byron, Bob Dylan,
David Bowie, the Beatles, the Stones, Dylan Thomas, Jim Morrison, J.
Hendrix, David Wojnarowicz, the Dead, Clapton etc

 yea I guess their work means less because they used drugs and did not
personify your moral character. But then again maybe you aren't as
judgmental about them as you seem to be about U2.

That may be because you don't look to them to show you how to live
your life---only Bono/U2 can show you that right? Just making a point.

Take Care
