From Achtung Baby:
The Fly Until The End of The World Mysterious Ways
Zooropa: Dirty Day (awsome zootv performance!!!) Numb
Pop: the Discotheque/Velvet Dress combo and Last Night on Earth ("you got a give it away"! i liked how the screens project bono's and edge's face when they sing that part.)
Close seconds:
AB: The Fly, of course, and the ZooTV version of Mysterious Ways
Zooropa: always gotta love Lemon...Bono belting out that "Midnight...is where the day begins!!!" I think Zooropa live was good too, although only played twice, neither of which were full, I think it would have kicked off the Macphisto encore georgeously. Just picture the Mac in his dressing room mumbling something about "Vorspung dur tecnik" and then walking out to the screaming masses as the song kicks into that outstanding second act...
Pop: Discoteque. Boomcha.
Other: The current version of Miss Serajevo is lovely, but the one in Serajevo sort of sucked (but due to the situation, was amazing). Definately the winner in this category goes to Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me Kill Me...soooo good live, love to see them break that one out again.
Achtung Baby - Until the end of the world
POP - Please
Zooropa is my favourite album out of the three but (or maybe it's because of that) I don't think any of the live versions is as good as the album version
AB: One, UTEOTW, Wild Horses, The Fly, MW, Love is Blindness. These are all awesome!
Zooropa: Lemon, Dirty Day, Daddy's Gonna Pay (not enough mention of this aweseome live performance)
Pop: Please, Discotheque, Miami (unexpectedly awesome!) I love the guitar solo at the end of Last Night On Earth, but the rest I dont love quite as much.
I agree drt! I appreciated the song more after seeing the live performance.
Aha sha la!!
I'm a sucker for any Macphisto performance. Somewhere youtube I saw a video of Macphisto performing Desire. He was singing in character, it was brilliant!!!
Achtung - Until The End Of The World, Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses, Love Is Blindness, One
Zooropa - Lemon, Dirty Day, Stay
Pop - Mofo, Last Night on Earth
