One: Boston, 4 December 2005 (obviously! :wink: )
Bullet The Blue Sky: Dublin, 28 August 1993
Mysterious Ways: this is a toughie, I always liked the performances of Miami, 1 March 1992 and Rotterdam, 15 June 1992 and the one in New York, 5 December 2000 is pretty good too.

Re: Re: Best live versions of these songs?

All of them - Zoo TV Dublin 1993.
Second favourites, Bullet from Rattle and Hum. Not sure if that's the BEST 'One' though, I've never really liked the sound of it live, especially not nowadays.
 
i love bullett fromt he zoo tv tour. the edge's solo is amazing.

one- this changes a lot. its my favorite song of all-time, but right now i find myself listening to the slane castle dvd version the most.

mysterious ways- i love the zoo tv versions of the song.
 
One from Slane Castle.

Bullet The Blue Sky from Slane Castle.

Mysterious Ways from Dublin 1993.

I hate One, and the only version I can stand to listen to is 23 September 1997, Sarajevo. That version is actually good, and probably the most emotional one ever, given the location.

Bullet The Blue Sky - 5 March 1992, Atlanta, and 11 August 1993, London are both highly recommended as Bono goes nuts at the end of both.

Mysterious Ways - 10 November 1997, Tampa, just for the fact Bono snippets It's Raining Men! :lol:
 
One: hasta la vista baby

bullet: zootv dublin 8/28/93

mysterious ways: slane castle
 
One - Live from Modena, September 12, 1995 (the one thats on the miss sarajevo version..really haunting with the violins!)
bullet the blue sky - rattle and hum version (i love the star spangled banner before it)
mysterious ways - slane castle with little eve!
 
One from the Top of the Pops performance in '92 is amazing.

Bullet from Sao Paolo is one of my favorites.

Mysterious Ways, hands down, 1992-10-14 Houston.

here it is. get rid of the spaces where appropiate, and for some reason the files are in alphabetical order and not the setlist order, but just go to u2tours.com for the actual order. Also, zoo confessions is after pride and before desire since that won't show up in u2tours

also i messed up with the date in a couple of places, but the date of the show is 8/28/93 to clarify any confusion i might have caused

Interesting Question, here.

One - Dublin, Slane 2001 (DVD)
Bullet The Blue Sky - Yankee Stadium, NY, summer 1992
Mysterious Ways - never really liked this song live.
 
MW is better when the piano plays in the intro, and Bono could hit the high notes. IMO, MW nowadays is just... subpar.
 
Bullet, Zoo Europa, Dublin 1993 - found on Stay single

Myst Ways and One's best were from Houston, 1992 - Outside Broadcast bootleg.
