U2 Sporcle Quizzes

[Oregoropa]

Not sure how many of you are familiar with Sporcle, but its a fantastic quiz website where users can generate their own quizzes. Once you log-in you can browse any and every subject including our favorite band from Dublin. Many of the U2 quizzes are easy, some a bit more challenging. You can search U2 quizzes by typing "U2" in the search bar. I created my first U2 quiz of Album Tracks Never Performed Live. Here's the link if you want to try your luck.

U2 album tracks never played live Quiz

Special thanks to Axver and U2 gigs for the data. I think I included a link to the site when you play the quiz

There was a guy who did a similar quiz to mine that included every b-side and cover up to 2011. I just took it and scored in the 92% percentile.

 

[Mack_Again]

i got 100% but had to look up the track lists. sorry......

 

[domo-kun]

Without actually cheating, I got 50 % right. LOL, The most one's I had right where the songs in the right column.

Figures because I tossed a lot of the left column songs out of my playlist.

Thanks ! what a fun quiz.

Man I don't think I can name more than three songs off October so this isn't gonna help.

Cool quiz tho, I love those Sporcle quizzes!

Been working on this one for a couple hours but its ready.

U2 Song Titles that are also Movie Titles

Had to go through Wikipedia's list of all U2 songs and check them in IMDB. Some are easy others are very obscure, and may have never made it to theaters. I had to come up with a criteria for inclusion Full length movie in English. No Docs, TV Movies. And it has to match the Exact title of the U2 song so "Faraway, So Close" didn't make the cut. I figure interferencers will fare well by process of elimination based on song hints. Good luck !

Side note: There are a bunch of softcore porn movies titled 'Surrender'

Yes. I've played that multiple times. The trick is to remember that Boy and October songs were played heavily early because it's all they had

Do you have any other hints? I'm up to 91 out of 100 songs and I have combed through the 13 albums and live albums. I even tried most of the b sides. I randomly put in the cry, seeing if the crystal ballroom worked (it didn't played twice) and the cry worked. I have never heard of that song. Can someone tell me about that one?
