What is the longest...

[theFly51]

Just being a curious cat but I was just wondering what is the longest U2 song you have in your collection? Live, remixes, etc.

For me, I have:

Live: Bad (live from East Rutherford, NJ) 18:19
Remixes: I have that fan-made mix "U2 MegaMix" 32:54

What's yours?

Remixes: I have that fan-made mix "U2 MegaMix" 32:54

Ditto

Street Mission, live from RTE Studios - "Youngline Street Mission" 19:14

EDIT: no it isn't - iTunes reporting the file wrongly! Mine is also the mega mix followed by Bad East Ruth.

Bad live maryland 8-5-85 13:23

on a sidenote, the longest live track in all of my music collection is Deep Purple "Wring that Neck" from scandinavian nights 34:34

Can someone upload the 18 minute version of Bad from NJ?

 

[mrex]

Yeah...I'd like to hear that long long Bad. In fact, I saw many of the NJ shows, and might have seen that.

The Monday Night Football Performance with Green Day. The whole thing, which includes a bit of talking, Wake Me Up When September Ends, The Saints Are Coming, and a little Beautiful Day lasts 11:48.

I seconded that

It wasn't 18 minutes. It was 16:16. The longest U2 song ever was 40 on 31 January 1985, Cologne, which clocks in at about 16:45.

How the hell did they drag out Bad for so long?? Did Bono embark on a snippet marathon or something?

I've heard it. He snippets Bad during Bad.

It's an amazing version. What I don't know is how did they drag "40" to last almost 17 minutes.

Longest U2 track: Daddy's Gonna Pay For Your Crashed Car (Live in Sydney 11/27/93 - it has the Macphisto bit tagged onto the end. I also have that "19 minute" version of Street Mission that's only actually about four min) (9:20)
Longest U2 studio track: Moment of Surrender (7:24)
Longest single file on iTunes: Pink Floyd - The Man and the Journey Suite (Live in Amsterdam 09/17/69) (47:17)
Longest single studio file on iTunes: Pink Floyd - Obscured by Clouds (full album) (40:36)
Longest single track: The Grateful Dead - Dark Star (Live in Oslo) (25:47)
Longest single studio track: Pink Floyd - Dogs (17:09)

Cool thread, I never looked at these categories before.

The East Ruth version of Bad is boring. I'd much rather have Live Aid, which is "only" twelve minutes long, or, better yet, something like ZooTV Dublin or Vertigo Saitama where they pack a passive punch into six-seven minutes without dragging the same instrumental section out, playing it over... and over... and over... and over... and over... again... and then Bono sings 2349823094 snippets... yawn. And this is coming from someone who considers Bad U2's greatest song.

You mean to say you don't have Echoes (23:31)????

What a fantastic song that is. Be sure to check out Marooned by them as well, beautiful guitar in that one.

What about "Atom Heart Mother"(23:44)?

 

[Liesje]

Mine would be Ronald Kuipers Mega Mix (the updated one with the HTDAAB tracks) 35:58.

 

[beegee]

I've heard it. He snippets Bad during Bad.

 

[alanah]

I think the longest songs I currently have in my collection are:

U2 Megamix (Ronald Kuipers) 35:57
Bad (live) 16:17
Wave Medley 13:44
DMC Megamix 13:11

 

[Addicted To Bad]

It wasn't 18 minutes. It was 16:16.

16:16 of Bad ?? Where can I find it, Axver?

I thought I had already seen all versions of Bad in my life ..

 

[Carek1230]

Longest U2 Song

The Longest U2 studio song in my collection I think is New Years Day [Ferry Corsten Extended Vocal Mix] which is about 9:41 minutes long, which is on the Bonus CD of the remastered War album.
