Simple Q: If you have to pick only 1, what's the best track U2 has recorded/released from 2000 to 2009?

[intedomine]

Beautiful Day

 

[bigjohn2441]

404

 

[digitize]

Unknown Caller, followed by MOS, Magnificent, Cobble, Electrical Storm, Kite, Beautiful Day, and TGBHF. Not necessarily in that order, although UC is my favorite.

EDIT: Actually, really, NLOTH in its entirety falls under this category.

 

[2861U2]

Beautiful Day by far, followed by Breathe, In A Little While, Electrical Storm.

 

[Saracene]

Kite

Followed by In A Little While, Magnificent, Beautiful Day and White As Snow.

 

[65980]

I dunno, 'Moment of Surrender' is nice in a drone, rainy day kind of way, but isn't it kind of (a) overlong, and (b) lacking in melody to be the best song of the decade??

(Pauses to remember that this is the forum that thinks 'Winter' is better than 'With or Without You'.)

 

[AtomicBono]

Beautiful Day

 

[No spoken words]

When I Look at the World

 

[SeattleVertigo]

Beautiful Day.

Followed by NLOTH, Magnificent and COBL.

 

[No spoken words]

When I Look at the World

Honorable mention to Fez-Being Born, City of Blinding Lights and No Line on the Horizon.

 

[SethVincent]

This is not easy but considering for the first time ever last night I sang Karaoke & I sang this song I will say this one

Beautiful Day

 

[Spoutnik]

"White as snow" is their most beautiful song of this decade.

 

[Cask]

I have several favorites....City of Blinding Lights, The Ground Beneath Her Feet or Kite.

 

[An Cat Gav]

Magnificent, Stateless or TGBHF.

 

[adypole]

(Pauses to remember that this is the forum that thinks 'Winter' is better than 'With or Without You'.)

Music is subjective. It's no fact that with or without is better than winter. If someone prefers winter, then that's that.

 

[The_acrobat]

Kite for me, followed by City of Blinding Lights.

 

[rastacruz]

Window In The Skies

 

[Salome]

I dunno, 'Moment of Surrender' is nice in a drone, rainy day kind of way, but isn't it kind of (a) overlong, and (b) lacking in melody to be the best song of the decade??

a) no
b) no

the rest if my top 5 would be in no order Beautiful Day, Stuck in a moment, Magnificent and Peace on Earth

 

[alanah]

I dunno..it's too tough for me..but I'm almost 100% sure that's not anything from the HTDAAB era.

Edit: and please, don't get me wrong..I like 'HTDAAB' album.

 

[God Part III]

NO LINE ON THE HORIZON, NO NO LINE

followed by Moment of Surrender and Unknown Caller.

 

[65980]

Objectivity

Music is subjective. It's no fact that with or without is better than winter. If someone prefers winter, then that's that.

Well, actually the records themselves are set in stone (or set in mp3), so they're not subjective, objectively speaking. People's opinions of them are subjective, though, I will admit.

Well, 'Moment of Surrender' is certainly good for insomniacs... but, er... I do like it... more or less. Seriously, I would edit about half of that song off.

 

[U2girl]

Moment of surrender.

 

[Yahweh]

Magnificent
