Just wondering what people's favourite U2 song is.Of the many many I'd have to say If God Will Send His Angels is probably the best thing they've ever done.It's incredible.

    I am sorry but that just has to be..........One.

    You’re on the outside, never bound by such a spell.
    Together in the darkness, alone in the light.
    I took it upon me to be yours, Timmy,
    I’ll lead your angels and demons at play tonight......»

    2 hearts beat as one

    long version/ remix
    with edge on the piano lead in
    For the ones who had a notion, a notion deep inside
    That it ain't no sin to be glad you're alive

    hands down with or without you
    And I'm not living this life without you, I'm selfish and clear
    And you're not leaving here without me, I don't wanna be without
    My best... friend. Wake up, to see you could have it all

    That song has one of the best verses ever....

    Jesus never let me down
    You know, Jesus used to show me the score
    Then they put Jesus in show business
    Now its hard to get in the door.


    Even though I've been a U2 fan since I was 9 (1987), I actually think my 2 favorite U2 songs are on the new album. I can't get enough of "Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own," and "City of Blinding Lights."
    I love my female wife...

    Glad to see love for "A Sort of Homecoming." I am praying it becomes a regular on their next tour

    i love that song as well. absolutely phenomenal.

    since u2 is a very close second to pj for me, it's pretty tough to pick one favorite... here's a few in the running:

    bad
    all i want is you
    so cruel
    trip through your wires
    walk on

    Unforgettable Fire: Unforgettable Fire

    Achtung Baby: Acrobat
    Zooropa: Zooropa
    Pop: Mofo
    80-90 B-Sides: Spanish Eyes/Endless Deep (tie)
    ATYCLB: Kite
    90-00 B-Sides: Electrical Storm
    HTDAAB: Crumbs From Your Table
