Bono has said this is their first album. Now, chances are, they will not play the whole thing live, but this is the first album where I have been able to pick each song as good live songs. I was not able to do that when ATYCLB came out. Each song has the potential and possibility of being played live because of the creation of the tune.
This being said, since Bono has said this is their first album, what if they play every track from their first album? Not too sure if every track from Boy was played live on the Boy Tour (Axver will have to help me out on this), but still.
So this is the tracklisting I have come up for every song from the album.
1. All Because Of You
2. Vertigo
3. The Fly
4. Gone
5. Until the End of the World
6. Electrical Storm
7. I Will Follow
8. Beautiful Day
9. Miracle Drug
B-STAGE
10. Desire
11. A Man and a Woman
ACOUSTIC
12. Original of the Species
13. Hands That Built America ---> One Step Closer*
MAIN STAGE
14. Love and Peace or Else**
15. Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own ---> All I Want Is You/Bad/Please***
16. Where The Streets Have No Name
17. Crumbs From Your Table
18. New Year's Day
ENCORE 1
19. City of Blinding Lights
20. Pride (In the Name of Love)
21. One
ENCORE 2
22. Yahweh
23. 40
*The tempos of these two songs are close enough where the seque could be seamless, and One Step Closer could be sung in the key of THTBA. Either the first verse/chorus can be song, or the whole thing.
** This would replace Bullet or any other main stage blasting song. The long intro would come out from the ending of One Step Closer.
*** I've found that the guitar lick throughout is reminiscent of that of Bad. Now, to include both Bad and All I Want is You, at 4:41, when the song ends, Edge could do SYCMIOYO riff for a few bars and then cut into the opening of Bad. People will think Bad is going to be played and then you hear Bono sing, "You say, you want, diamonds on a ring of gold" and does one full verse and chorus. Try it, it actually works! Bono then begins to sing "I'm wide awake, I'm wide awake, I'm not sleeping." He then switches over to "If I could, you know I would, if I could, I would let it go. This desperation, dislocation, (etc etc) "while The Edge begins to drop out, and the opening chords, COMPLETE intro from Streets begins to come in. Once Edge is silent, Bono's tempo changes to the chord changes in Streets. He then adds a few "Please....please....get up off your knees....Please....Please...." Finally he shuts up at 1:10 in the song when Adam comes in. House lights go up and Bono does his screaming thing and that's the long version of SYCMIOYO which clocks in around 7-8 minutes.
