    HTDAAB: Crumbs From Your Table

    GREAT fucking tune! :) I think I was at its live premier in Minneapolis last fall.
    No longer overwhelmed it seems so simple now.

    There's too many to pick, but one of their new tunes that I love and can't get enough of is "City of Blinding Lights"

    being that U2 is a close second to Pearl Jam on my favorite bands list, I cant choose one song....

    some current faves though:

    zooropa
    new york

    just discovered those songs recently and loved em

    some constant faves:

    running to stand still
    kite
    one
    until the end of the world
    bad
    mysterious ways
    bullet the blue sky(especially live)
    I've faced it, a life wasted, and I'm never going back again.

    Some die just to live.

    It would have to be BAD. (I nearly lost it when EV strummed the intro chords in Toronto!)

    . . . also, Who's gonna ride, So Cruel (really any of the darker songs on Achtung Baby) and All I want is you.

    im noticing this is a lot like pearl jam... such a huge variety of "standout" songs for most of the fans.

    They've made so many great songs and although i don't think the new album measure up to Achtung or Zooropa Some times you can't ..... & Crumbs from Your Table are awesome.

    Although if your looking for my favourite and the time when I Think you can't beat it for lyrics and music, the chemistry between the band, the emotion and the sheer power then it's gotta be One no doubt.

    I just love the song it never fails to make the hairs on the back of my neck come up, although the most recent version with Mary J Blige is sacriliige, nothing but utter disgust was felt when I first heard it, it so pointles and almost soils my feelings about the original, I think U2 seem to be off somewhere at the moment and I hope they take a grip and make this rock album they've been promising us cause HTDAAB and All you can't leave behind arn't it.

    I will say their one of my fav bands, I just wish they'd excite ,me again like Achtung & Zooropa.

    Tough call, but I would have to say Until the End of the World
  • funkymonkfunkymonk Posts: 279
    I usually like loud agressive music for the most part but I have to say that Sunday Bloody Sunday, One and With or Without You almost make me cry.

    U2 is obviously my favorite band....and I could never come up with my favorite song. I would say that With or Without You was the 1st one I really loved....and Numb off of Zooropa is the only song I haven't cared for.
