Best song on HTDAAB?

[WithOrWithoutYo]

Just bought the album today - had downloaded it about a week ago, but only allowed myself to listen to the songs they played at the Top of the Pops gig. However, having listened to it once top to bottom, I think it's clear that City Of Blinding Lights is the creme de la creme of a group of fine songs.

[God Part III]

Crumbs From Your Table!

 

[Sleep Over Jack]

SYCMIOYO closely followed by Original Of The Species.

 

[dandy]

i have fallen completely in love with 'original of the species', but there are easily 6 other contenders for best song.

 

[beau2ifulday]

Original Of The Species.
It's the 'Kite' of the album.

 

[jendzi]

COBL is great, followed by SYCMIOYO, followed by OOTS, followed by AMAAW, followed by YAHWEH

 

[lovennpeace]

Love and Peace, with Original very close.

 

[Joshua_Tree_Hugger]

Original Of The Species.
It's the 'Kite' of the album.

IMO, SYCMIOYO is the Kite!!

Best song is either OOTS, SYCMIOYO or Fast Cars at the mo but bet that it will change!

 

[watsons]

I LOVE OOTS!!! Especially after the line that goes something like...
Sugar, Come on. Show your soul.

That part is brilliant.

 

[annatheduck]

Right now, Miracle drug. But there are 9 others I wanna mention too, so...

 

[bedouin fire]

For different reasons, Miracle Drug, Love+Peace or Else and A Man and A Woman are the outstanding songs of the album.

 

[FullonEdge2]

I agree. COBL is the meat and potatoes of this album.

 

[TheFlyOnTheWall]

Miracle Drug.

 

[aardvark]

Just listened to it for the first time - haven't picked a fave yet but as a whole I LOVE IT!!!! I think it sounds so much more like the first 4 albums but mixed with enough newer U2 sounds to keep everyone happy.

LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!

 

[djerdap]

Miracle Drug, without contest. 5 songs are on my 2nd spot

[I think the triade of Love and peace or else+COL+ABoY is really powerfull and always leaves me with my mouth open while getting thorough HTDAAB, but The best song is definintely Original of the species...

 

[iacrobat]

Right now, Love and Peace.

Original of the Species is not doing it for me at all, one of the weaker tracks in my mind.

 

[Aardvark747]

AMAAW

 

[Sleep Over Jack]

Theres a few songs that I can't decide whether I like or not..one of them is Miracle Drug which is very average in parts, but the latter half of the song is U2 at their very best, sooo...

 

[Aardvark747]

AMAAW - yes ive already said it, but it's sooo good i'll say it again!

 

[Dr_Macphisto]

SYCMIOYO

 

[Jttsa]

City Of Blinding Lights
Miracle Drug
Sometimes U Can't Make It On UR Own
Vertigo
All Because Of You

In that order..

 

[Puddleglum]

I really think ABOY is the strongest song on the album, and I thought everyone else would agree with me! I'm an idiot...

 

[super fly guy]

Love and peace or else!
