Admittedly, U218 Videos was a mess. (!)

[Scorpionac]

So what 18 videos would you pay for? No one needs lame one-afternoon-home-video versions of Beautiful Day or Pride. Or three versions of One and Vertigo and the ridiculously insightful documentaries about shooting them. Yeah, we get it: Anton thinks music videos should just be a big series of photographs. Didn't need that one confirmed. =P

Here's mine:

1. I Will Follow
2. A Celebration
3. All I Want is You
4. One (Berlin version)
5. Numb
6. Lemon
7. Stay
8. Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me
9. Staring at the Sun
10. Please
11. Sweetest Thing
12. Beautiful Day
13. Walk On (International Version)
14. Stuck in a Moment You Can't Get Out of (International Version)
15. Vertigo
16. Sometimes You Can't Make it on Your Own
17. Original of the Species
18. Window in the Skies (Modernista Version) - musician mashup one

I can't stand to sit through things like Desire or I Still Haven't Found, so notice the lack of 80s crap. 'Please' may be there just for the single mix of the song and surprisingly I really enjoy every video on my list from this decade.
How about you, what do you think?

1. i will follow (the version that got played on mtv here, not the cheesy one wif the backdrop of the album cover)

3. a celebration
4. two hearts beat as one
5. the fly
6. who's gonna ride your wild horses
7. miss sarajevo
8. walk on (both versions)
10. elevation
11. vertigo
12. all because of you
13. sometimes you can't make it on your own
14. city of blinding lights
15. the saints are coming
16. get on your boots
17. magnificent
18. i'll go crazy if i don't go crazy tonight

Ok so I cheat!

 

[Muldfeld]

I'd just have every single video the band ever did. It's nice to have it all.

Admittedly?

Are you Fake Paul?

 

[Scorpionac]

Exactly. I have a feeling U218 Videos might've actually lost money! Who'd want them, and especially such a hodge-podge. And I've rarely had an urge to watch a U2 video more than once.

Boots presumably could be on there too, but I skipped it to make sure I didn't rip the fourth dimension a new a-hole.
Oh, and Elevation is always fun just because it's so lame...Shame it's not included on the version I'd buy

Admittedly?

Are you Fake Paul?

Was he a little like Fake Edge? (Of whom I've only heard stories.) I assume he'd be more offensive to the general fanbase than Fake Edge ever was.

yeah, this. basically, anything unreleased on dvd.

 

[The Sad Punk]

All officially released videos (including non-U2 i.e In A Lifetime, Awful Sinatra Duet etc.), some fun stuff unreleased on DVD and... commentaries.

Pretty much yes, I want EVERYTHING in one DVD set, I don't understand why that's such a hard thing for them to do.

I still say that, even though it only focuses on one decade, Best of 1990-2000 is the best music video DVD I own. I was finding bonus features and shit on that DVD for almost a whole week before I watched it all.
