If hideous aliens attacked Earth!!........

[snutes1]

So the world leaders choose YOU to appease these aliens with their demands to hear the best music that the world has to offer. You decide, with the Earth hanging in the balance, that you will give the aliens the TOP 5 U2 songs, which in your book represents the essence of U2 (plus you think the songs rock).

You have only a few hours to save the Earth from these aliens who happen to be huge Henry Rollins fans.

My pics

1. In gods Country
2. New years day
3. Sunday bloody Sunday
4. The fly
5. Until the end of the world


Note: This is a stupid thread, but lets have some fun with it.

1. Mofo
2. Discotheque
3. The Fly

1- MIracle drug
2- with or without you
2. stay

5- kite.

 

[Axver]

1. 11 O'clock Tick Tock, 5 June 1983
2. City Of Blinding Lights
3. Heartland
4. Where The Streets Have No Name, 26 or 30 December 1989
And the best for last
5. One Tree Hill, 26 December 1989

 

[Axver]

Or if I were in a bad mood and wanted the aliens to blow the crap out of George Bush or whoever else I pointed them towards, I'd play this:

1. Red Light
2. Babyface
3. Staring At The Sun, 25 April 1997
4. Trash, Trampoline, And The Party Girl
5. A Room At The Heartbreak Hotel

I doubt they'd need to listen past the first one anyway ...

But they're aliens from outter space! They wouldn't want U2, they'd want space rock!

 

[Axver]

But they're aliens from outter space! They wouldn't want U2, they'd want space rock!

They wouldn't even want Zooropa, described as 'U2 in outer space'?

 

[ZeroDude]

They wouldn't even want Zooropa, described as 'U2 in outer space'?

Either do that or let them try to figure out Edge's effects setup that actually is hell
