[Mauwer]

tough one!

Both are ok on the album but live they are

I go with Please. ( just by an inch. though )

Cheers ,

Mauwer

Dirty Day

 

[An Cat Gav]

Live, Dirty Day wins hands down.
Studio....hmmmm, I'll go with Please.

 

[alanah]

Please for me.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

Dirty Day wins because of the live version...

 

[The Disciple]

PLEASE.

 

[cdisantis83]

In my opinion, Please is one of their top 10 songs, if not top 5. Definitely Please.

 

[mandrake]

Dirty Day live, but Please in studio (the single version) is better.

 

[Screwtape2]

Dirty Day.

Please only worked live on Popmart because of Streets. I think the studio version sounds flat.

 

[*browneyedgirl*]

I can't pick one

I thought Chizip would be the first one to vote for Dirty Day

 

[corianderstem]

I think I have to go with Dirty Day.

Please never really rang my bell.

 

[cobl04]

Dirty Day..... but not easily. Both studio versions, in my opinion, leave something to be desired.

 

[randhail]

I hadn't listened to Please in a long while until today and it really is a great song, have to give it the nod.

 

[U2Man]

hey, this is much easier than the choice in my thread.

album versions:

please = one of u2's best songs ever.
dirty day = meh.

 

[xaviMF22]

Please FTW

EXACTLY!!!

 

[Canadiens1131]

You gotta be kidding me.

 

[LemonMelon]

Dirty Day

 

[Blue Room]

Dirty Day studio > than Please Studio
Please Live > than Dirty Day live (although its excellent live also)

Dirty Day is the best thing on the Zooropa album for me, one of only a few great things on that album.

 

[U2Man]

bono's singing on dirty day studio version is one of the biggest embarrassments of u2's career.

its not that bad

Zooropa > U2Man

 

[U2Man]

in less than an hour someone is gonna come in here and make the psycho remark about zooropa being u2's best album of all time.

but it is

here is my ranking...

1. Zooropa
2. Achtung Baby
3. The Joshua Tree

 

[U2Man]

i was right.



edit: and btw. zooropa cannot even touch achtung baby's left buttock. because if it could...it would have done it.

Zooropa is U2's best album of all time.

Oh, wait, it's been an hour and six minutes.

 

[Aygo]

Forgetting that the album version of Please exists (and focusing on the other versions of both songs), I'll go with Please. A much better and emotive song.

 

[intedomine]

In my opinion, Please is one of their top 10 songs, if not top 5. Definitely Please.

Yep, Top 10 definitely.

I wouldn't put Dirty Day in the top 75 U2 songs.

 

[ahittle]

Any rocker from the Zooropa sessions is bound to sound compressed. Dirty Day deserves more life than that record and tour.

But altogether I think Please is a stronger song.

Both killers.

 

[MrBrau1]

It's a unfair fight.

Please is a classic U2 epic.

Dirty Day is a turd. That album performance nearly ruins Zooropa. It's as unispired as the band have ever sounded. Bono all nasal. The band going through the motions, no drive in that performance. Terrible recording. Worst thing they've ever put to tape.

 

[Chizip]

dirty day is the greatest thing u2 has ever done
