FYC and Lemon

This one's not a reach. For all of you kids of from the 80's, you were familiar with Fine Young Cannibals' "She Drives Me Crazy.":
My first thought on U2's ill-fated album release was that Bono has decided retro really IS in by channeling Roland Gift while singing "Lemon."
A bit of quick googling reveals I'm not alone in this assessment, or in my turning up my nose to this song. Sounds kinda old. Kudos, perhaps for one thing: The David-Bowie-esque vibe of the song. That would work if emulating David Bowie was still a thing. Confession time: Neither song is on my iPod. Bono, you so crazy.

    Why it's confused

    -Cannot decide on a genre
    -Love rap, hate modern gangsta
    -WTF IS HURRICANE SCHWARTZ?
    -Is that a banjo?
    -Beastie boys YES. Vanilla ice NO.
    -Yeah, Zeppelin is okay, kinda.
    -Seriously, are you bipolar?
    -Hate country, love bluegrass
    -Hate old bluegrass, love new
    -THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS NEW BLUEGRASS.
    -Oh what, you'll probably try classical music or some crap next.
