American Songwriter's Best U2 Songs Ever. What's On Your List?

[Anu]

Friends,

American Songwriter is honoring the re-boot of 360 by putting on its own boots & counting down The 20 Greatest U2 Songs Ever, so far according to writer Matt Popkin.

Only the last two are in with Sweetest Thing and Gloria taking 20 and 19 respectively.

The 20 Greatest U2 Songs Ever: #20, “Sweetest Thing” | American Songwriter

The 20 Greatest U2 Songs Ever: #19, “Gloria” | American Songwriter

Gently borrowing from this idea, the Interference webzine wants to know your take on the Top 20 U2 songs ever. Even more, I would love to see "themed" Top 20 lists like "Top 20 U2 songs to workout to," "Top 20 U2 songs to make love to," "Top 20 U2 songs to play in church," or whatever else you can think of!

Please respond to the American Songwriter list as it happens, post your own lists here, or send them to me: Andy@interference.com

Have fun!

He's still got it, but some of the old links died.

Here's a new URL that keeps the list going after each add:
The Top 20 U2 Songs: #16, “40″ | American Songwriter

Any takers on sharing their top 20s?

I would definitely love to share if you give me a day or so. I had a couple top ten lists of this sort, but I can easily stretch them out to 20.

I'd love to see your lists Acrobat!

Sounds like fun . I'll compile a couple lists and share them in the next couple days. Thanks for alerting us to the idea.
