Favorite Version of Streets Live??

[U2Fan101]

Streets is the one song when I hear live, I get teary eyed and it's really hard to not cry. Something about it.

So I want to know what your favorite version of Streets is?

 

[Jack In The Box]

Please to Streets because is the most emotional version

 

[A Maaaaaaan]

I voted for Bad - Horses - 40/Streets.

I saw that live!

 

[martha]

I can't decide!

 

[Popmartijn]

The Popheart version is magical. I know because I was there. I also liked the beefed up sequencer line and the extended ending.

Then there will be no time for sorrow

C ya!

[Elvis Presley]

I voted for the Popmart tour version, especially the one from Rotterdam on the Please EP.

I love that electronic sounding bassline....

I love that song

it just makes me happy and fills me up

and live, it's just incredible

 

[nbcrusader]

All the listed versions of Streets hit me hard too.

My current favorite is the ZooTV RTSS-Streets combo.

 

[tiny dancer]

Hard decision, but I went for Elevation Tour-Bad-Horses-40/Streets.

I voted for the Popmart tour version, especially the one from Rotterdam on the Please EP.

I love that electronic sounding bassline....

As always, Ep has the answer

 

[Ms. I-Lo]

ZooTV version!!!!!!

 

[bono_man2002]

i also voted for zoo tv version...

that combo of dirty day (or bad)/bullet/running/strees/pride
is one of the best!

 

[Flaming Friar Sr]

popmart.

i think the please/streets combination during popmart is probably the best thing they've ever done live.

 

[DAITHI69]

ZooTV. The lights, the cameras, the music, the stage, the atmosphere. Live performances don't get better than that. From the load and bright setting for BTBS to the enchanting RTSS and then to a locg and nerve-tingling start to Streets. How can anybody not agree that it is the best. P.S. I've seen them from all the different eras...

 

[brettig]

You're all insane. Streets will always be the definitive U2 opener! I don't care what anyone says. The reinventions are all lovely but come on...the song's dynamics just scream opener. I'd sooner remember it as an opener anyway rather than a midset bit of nostalgia.

Zoo TV TOUR!

 

[kariatari]

Elevation Tour - Bad-Horses-40/Streets

I'm pretty sure this will always be my favorite since that was how I experienced it for the first time live.

 

[popsadie]

oh man..rtss into streets was awesome...but so was elevation streets...both just transported me to somewhere else...

 

[Jack In The Box]

in an Elevation Tour date they played Please and then Streets... and Bono forgot the lyric of Please (it was in Baltimore)

[I Move in Mysterious Ways]

popmart.

i think the please/streets combination during popmart is probably the best thing they've ever done live.

I think that's one of the better U2 one-two punches I've heard. Though Bad and RTSS are far better songs (in my opinion) than Please, the combination at Popmart was perfect.

I know they played Please before Streets once during the elevation tour -- Baltimore I think. Was this done in a Popmart-ish fashion? (i.e. full blown Please, not an acoustic version, with Bono howling "Pleeeeeeeeeease" as the Streets intro began)
