[Poorboy]

Where streets have no name -
Unitil the end of the world - rock and roll
The electric co -
Out of control - a good bop
Sunday Bloody Sunday -

 

[Poorboy]

Starting to think about this

I really hated the fly ( studio ) but that live version in Boston 2001 (?) was just amazing. That version is incrediable I really love it!!!!!

It was fantastic on ZooTV.

Here are my favourites for what they are worth.

- Streets(it's almost primal!!!)
- Bad (most tours)
- 11 O' Clock Tick Tock(God please bring this back!!!!)
- Love is Blindness (ZooTV)
- Mysterious Ways (ZooTV)
- Running to Standstill (ZooTV)
- A Sort of Homecoming
- Please (Popmart)
- I Will Follow (still gives me chills)
- Miss Sarajevo (Vertigo)
- Electric Co (funnily enough Vertigo and War Tour)
- Sunday Bloody Sunday (War, Joshua Tree)
- Exit (Only played Joshua Tree unfortunately!!!)
- Surrender (War Tour)
- Twilight (October Tour)
- Walk On
- Vertigo
- Bullet the Blue Sky (Joshua only!)
- Until the End of the World(Any)

This is a great list from some one who knows U2. Very much how i think. He has even got the tours right. Well done.

 

[lauramullen]

That is a great list and I agree with everything on it

 

[Axver]

- Exit (Only played Joshua Tree unfortunately!!!)

Hope to see it live again...

Oh yes!

Don't believe me?

YouTube - Miami

YouTube - Miami (live from Popmart Las Vegas)

The sheer flamboyancy, the funky attitude, and this feeling of psychedelia you get from the song is not only very unique but indeed is absolutely sublime - the live version turns a very good song into one of the very best.

Electric Co rocked on the Vertigo Tour.

If only the song was actually appreciated a whole lot more.

The choruses are absolutely much more rocking than in studio.
