It's difficult.
1. Unknown Caller: one their best ever, the intro is just amazing and the solo too of course!
2. Fez-Being Born: it's just a soaring song!

3. Breathe: great rocksong with very good solo!
4. Moment of Surrender: just an epic song, love the vocals!
5. Magnificent: classical U2!
6. No Line on the Horizon: also great vocals, great opener!
7. Cedars of Lebanon: one of their best closers ever!

8. Get on Your Boots: fun song and better than Vertigo.
9. White As Snow: beautiful song with great lyrics.

10. Crazy: just a fun pop song, the 'baby baby baby' part is the best.
11. Stand up Comedy: just good, not very special but I certainly don't hate it.
 
Magnificent is slowly fading for me.
WAS on the day of release:

1. Magnificent
2. Breathe
3. No Line On The Horizon
4. FEZ/Being Born
5. Unknown Caller
6. White As Snow
7. Get On Your Boots
8. Cedars of Lebanon
9. Moment of Surrender
10. I'll Go Crazy If I Don't Go Crazy Tonight
11. Stand Up Comedy

IS now:

1. No Line On The Horizon
2. Unknown Caller
3. Moment of Surrender
4. Magnificent

6. Breathe
7. Get On Your Boots
8. Cedars of Lebanon
9. I'll Go Crazy If I Don't Go Crazy Tonight
10. White As Snow
11. Stand Up Comedy

I'm starting to think that Unknown Caller features the greatest Edge solo ever.

Crazy Tonight still going strong for me, the normal lenght-single version made it even better. Magnificent is falling a bit, I think that song could have used a bit faster bpm.
NLOTH2 was fun for a bit, but I prefer lady with the spinning head over it.
I wish Fez was 3 mins long, Being born is :heart: aswell.

At release:

1) I'll go Crazy If I Don't Go Crazy Tonight
(2) NLOTH2
2) Magnificent
3) Moment Of Surrender
4) Unknown Caller
5) No Line on the Horizon
6) Get On Your Boots

1) I'll go Crazy If I Don't Go Crazy Tonight +0
2) Fez - Being Born +7
3) Moment Of Surrender +0
4) Magnificent -2
5) Stand Up Comedy +3
6) Unknown Caller -2
7) Get On Your Boots -1
8) No Line on the Horizon -3
(9) NLOTH2 -7
9) Breathe +1
10) Cedars of Lebanon -3
11) White As Snow +0 I think this song will forever be my least favourite u2 song
 
1) Moment of Surrender
2) Unknown Caller
3) No Line On The Horizon
4) Crazy Tonight
5) Breathe
6) Magnificent
7) White As Snow
8) Boots
9) Fez-Being Born
10) Cedars
11) Stand Up Comedy

Now, I absolutely adore every song on this album, so SUC getting eleventh place doesn't make it the worst song on NLOTH so much as the eleventh-best song on NLOTH for me. It was incredibly difficult to rank all of these songs - I think every one of them would be in my U2 top fifty.
 
Mine is now:

1:Magnificent
2:FEZ Being Born
3.Get On Your Boots
4.No Line On The Horizon
5.Moment Of Surrender
6.Cedars Of Lebanon
7.IGCIIDGCT
8.Breathe
9.White As Snow

10.......Unknown Caller



11........................................Stand Up Comedy

I can't see this order changing too much. The songs I loved from day 1, I still love. The songs I wasn't that keen on, I now really don't like and that's UC and SUC. There's still some for UC as it seemed greatly improved live and it's opening minute is great, but I will never ever like SUC.
