LAST NIGHT ON EARTH
GONE
MIAMI

I'm not trying to be controversial here, really. I think LNOE is one of the best rockers, period. Even without the extended live jam. Even without the single version.

Gone really needs no justification but this is one of their very personal, very emotional, soaring songs.

Miami captures the spontaneity of the band and their ability to try new things.

These songs are all totally different yet they flow perfectly from one to the other. And each has BLISTERING guitar work from Edge.

Ultra Violet-Acrobat-Love is Blindness

Bad-Indian Summer Sky-Elvis Presley

Rejoice-Fire-Tomorrow

not sure if this one qualifies because of Star Spangled Banner, but also: Heartland-God Part II-Bullet the Blue Sky

Promenade/4th Of July/Bad

YES, THANK YOU. I am glad someone else posted this!

Look, folks, there's no competition. Promenade --> 4th Of July --> Bad wins by a country mile. It might as well be one track.

Can't figure out why people are saying Ultra Violet --> Acrobat --> Love Is Blindness. I cannot imagine the diabolical tripe that is Ultra Violet being linked with the two best songs on Achtung Baby.

How could you possibly post An Cat Dubh without Into The Heart?

Ultraviolet is great and is the complete opposite of diabolical tripe.....

Or you could let people have their opinions without getting pompous about it.

In an alternate dimension, perhaps.

Pompous? Where?

Seems it's alright to claim your opinion is absolutely correct only if you are praising Achtung Baby or anything else from the nineties. I see people making all kinds of wild claims about nineties U2 and presenting it as fact, and no-one ever argues with them or levels any allegations of arrogance, but the second I say that nineties U2 was but a shadow of eighties U2, I receive all kinds of baseless accusations.

Typical.

I don't think Promenade works well without The Unforgettable Fire preceding it , therefore, I'd have to leave Bad off of this list....

But it's quite alright for Achtung Baby lovers to present their opinion as fact and bash ATYCLB in every single thread?

Nice hypocrisy.
