Favorite U2 song (current and all-time)?
I like "Miracle Drug" from the current album.

Favorite all-time? It's hard to choose, but I guess "Sunday Bloody Sunday" (or "Kite").

4. Hmmmm.
Four pics--Seconds (from War), Hallalujah Here She Comes (B-side of Desire), Dirty Day (Zooropa), and Please (Pop). Off of the new one I really like Vertigo and Crumbs from your Table, and Love and Peace or Else.

5. You reminded me
about "Dirty Day." I love that song, particularly the even extra-rocked up live performance on videotape from Australia (I think).

15. Joshua Tree has so many that just blow me away....
"Running to Stand Still," "With or Without you", "Red Mill Town." I swear this album was channeled.

18. "Van Diemen's Land" from Rattle & Hum?
Edited on Fri Dec-17-04 10:05 PM by gatorboy
Maybe not my all time favorite, but I didn't know The Edge could sing and it's a pretty good song!

21. All I Want Is You
I like so many of their songs, but there's something about Bono's delivery of that one...

29. "Vertigo" and "Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For"
But most anything they've ever done I like.

I really like their new album, "How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb."
