Anything from Pop.

Agreed.

 

I also love "Lady With The Spinning Head" and "Salome," both B-sides from the Achtung Baby era.

The most underrated U2 song EVER is "PARTY GIRL" on "Under A Blood Red Sky."

I truly love that song, although when I heard the studio version I thought it totally SUCKED.

Signed,


"A boy called Trampoline" 

Do you know what I mean?

Oh dude I agree 100%. I heard it for the first time on Under a Blood Red Sky and was blown away. Then about 5 years after that I heard it again on that "Best of" CD they put out and almost puked. The studio version is downright TERRIBLE. How could they be so different??

I fixed it for you, Earl!

 

Seriously, Pop shouldn't be as maligned as it is. Some awesome stuff.

 

And if you have seats for Muse, you go. Even if you're not feeling it on the night before the show, you still go. As soon as Uprising kicks in, you'll be glad you didn't miss it.

"The Unforgettable Fire" is a fantastic song.

I love the entire record too!

Excellent choices, and I would add:

Red Hill Mining Town
One Tree Hill
Zooropa
Staring At The Sun

 

 

Definitely these. My favorite moment of TJT album might be the very end of One Tree Hill with Bono just wailing away (coincidentally, the cd version got messed up and tacked it at the intro of Exit)

The Boy and October albums helped get me though high school in one piece. I only listen to them occasionally now because the albums stir up a lot of emotions from way back when...

Seconds, Like a Song..., The Unforgettable Fire, Until the End of the World, Acrobat (probably my #1 favorite), and a bunch of stuff from Zooropa, and Pop as well.

 

Acrobat is definitely one of their most overlooked great songs.

I was going to say *An Cat Dubh* now I'll say the entire album

Boy is still my favorite U2 album, and "An Cat Dubh" is definitely one of its best songs! I like the whole "suite" of songs, if you will, with "An Cat Dubh," "Into the Heart," and "Out of Control" running into one another. I also love another deep cut on this album: "A Day Without Me."

 

BTW, I love the attention "Like a Song" (from War) is getting here. I gravitated to that song early, and I couldn't talk about it with other people at the time, because they didn't know it!
