U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

There is a bit of a running debate going on at the moment,in the "What music are you listening to..." thread,about U2's best song.So im posting this new thread then we can all join in.I'll cast my vote later when iv'e finished listening to The Faces.:)

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

I like most of U2's, fell out with them a little when they were breaking America, the music was crap! My all time fav is Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses :)

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

With or without you - love that song




Beautiful day - reminds me of my late DAD!!!! :)

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

they have so many good ones though stink, where the streets have no name has to be one of my favourites

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

I know lol! We were having this conversation about U2 the other night weren't we ;)

Absolute top band, hard to find fault with any of their songs. Wild Horses will always be my fav though. To choose a top ten favourites of their songs I'd find really difficult and would probably have to change my choices daily :)

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

they all take me back to when we where younger, lol 14 and hanging round with men with facial hair pmsfl :D

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

Tinks,you've just told us in another thread:rolleyes: I think U2 have had a great many good songs throughout their career.Two of my favourites are Still Have'nt Found What Im Looking For & Zoo Station,the latter because it opened the album Achtung Baby which marked a new direction for the band after their american odyssey,which a lot of fans never expected to happen.

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

achtung baby is a great album BUT the joshua tree was better

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

Oh well I'm extremely sorry, I thought this was a chat about U2 that was seperate from the other thread :rolleyes:

Here I found something just for you ....... :thefinger

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

OMG lmfao.....ever the diplomatic :)

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

waits for the person who's watching the thread

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

Very difficult to choose just one,think With Or Without You would have to win,closely followed by One and All I Want Is You.

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

[quote=Tinkerbelle]Oh well I'm extremely sorry, I thought this was a chat about U2 that was seperate from the other thread :rolleyes: [quote]Indeed it is,and i'm sorry if isomehow infered otherwise:o I thought it would be a good idea to start this as there seemed to be a few U2 fans on the other thread talking U2,but maybe not neccassarily listening to them at the time(and it seemed inappropiate to tell folk iwas listening to something else when the topic was U2).So what did you think of the last album?Thought it was quite good myself,but the title was all wrong.Should either have been How To Disarm An Atomic Bomb or simply Atomic Bomb:cool:

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

One, With or Without You, I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For, Where The Streets Have No Name, Pride, Sunday Bloody Sunday, I Will Follow - some of the greatest songs ever written by anybody.
Amazing band.

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

desire........... not a bad song either .........

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

can,t argue with ANY of those, Sunday Bloody Sunday is my personal fav though.

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

Mine too. Didnt like them when they became political tho.

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

Got to say it was "New Years Day" that got me into U2 to start with.Two albums to late,but better late than never:)

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

Come on Nell,Sunday,Bloody Sunday is one of the most political songs they've done.

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

Early stuff is still the best, "I Will Follow" sheer class.

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

Yes ALL VERY WELL....:D ......buty which song woulld you like him to sing to you most(bearing in mind the rest of the band will there ):D

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

Well the No 1 in the U2 top twenty was With Or Without You, I'd be a happy little bunny if Bono singing that to me ;) :D oeeerrr !!

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

Who says With or Without You was No. 1 ? I thought it was ****e.Thats only my 2p worth .

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

:eek: NO WAY IS THAT SONG S***E!!! Then again I'm a girly so it tugs at the heart strings a little ;)

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

OMG with or without you is the ONE I would want him to sing to me most!!! Agree with Tinks......it's a heart wrenching song.


Got to say though------ONE LOVE u2 vs Mary J Blige is brill too.......not to everyones taste but it's deffo one of mine.

Vertigo - another favorite of mine!!!

OHHHH all of them!! Just all of them! I can't decide.....:rolleyes:

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

It's not thier best is it though? Imean it may have personal connotations(?) for you but if you had to get in a bath with the band,would it still have the same meaning?W O F i'm abvit pished ,give me a tune with more bo***cks any time..LOL:) :) :)

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

OHHHHHHH - sugar!! I love where the streets have no names too...............and she moves in mysterious ways.................



OMG soooooo many..............the pressure of a name!!! :rolleyes::o

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

Did anyone see Channel 4 today between 12pm and 1pm??



OH yeah come on!!! well chuffed ....... I was un fortunate enough to be working, but.......hehehe snook off to watch the T.V whenever possible :D

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

Beautiful Day is the best u2 song! Makes me think of football for some reason maybe because its on the championship where stnley are on now wahooo :D:D:D However the new u2 song with greenday is brilliant!

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

The video for the new U2 single, 'Window in the Skies' is genius ..... one of the best music videos I've seen in a very long time.

It includes footage of just about every legend in rock: Jimi Hendrix, Thom Yorke, Robert Plant, Karen O, Elton John, Marvin Gaye, Ray Charles, Nat King Cole, David Bowie, Frank Zappa, Elvis, Sinatra, Kanye West, George Harrison, Kurt Cobain and many, many more.

Thanks to brilliant editing, they've all been made to look as if they are singing the U2 song. See how many legends you can spot (and look carefully and you'll glimpse the members of U2 in crowd shots.)

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

That is very very clever.

I don't quite know what to make of it though.
Is it homage to their idols or are they being pretentious to think that these greats would want to sing this song?
I'm not sure on that one.

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

always look on the bright side dont ya

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

Shut it you slag.

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

child shut it :D

great clip yee :D

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

very clever that vid and great song i love it

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

Thanks for proving my little test there.
There's no reasoning with utter stupidity, you can only use their own moronic language to get something out of them....and it's still ****e at that.

Back to thread, yes U2 are a great band but I find them quite pompous these days to say the least, but the older songs speak for themselves. If that makes me negative then so be it.

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

*yawns* your boring me now

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

haha see :D

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

Sorry flashy but I'm in total agreement, the old songs are the best, to me they have passed their sell by date.

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
 

no need to apologise chick, i like them all, each to there own :D

Re: U2...the Very Very Best Of
