Last night on earth Appreciation Thread

[Mullen4Prez]

One of my all time favourites, I hope they play it on the tour.

 

[1stepcloser]

yep, it sounds great on Popmart

 

[djerdap]

Live versions absolutely kicked ass!

 

[gareth brown]

Popmart Mexico City version = The Best by FAR!

 

[Pero]

Best bass intro and riff

 

[MacPhistoPT]

Cool song but not all that great

Not so good as Please or Gone but much better than Miami, The Playboy Mansion, Do You feel loved...

"in the middle"

 

[Irishteen]

Only heard it as a live recording and it is good.

 

[WinnieThePoo]

it is good , sharp , unfinished , straight in your face

 

[starvinmarvin]

Second best song on Pop

 

[BANZAI]

One of the worst U2 songs...almost as cheap as Elevation

 

[timothius]

Love it, love it, love it!

Top 5 in the nineties.

If it weren't for Walk On it would be the best song since Achtung Baby. At least in my humble opinion.

 

[Aardvark747]

Single mix is the best. First Night In Hell Mix is quite possibly the biggest pile of turd ever.

 

[miss becky]

Very good song. I love the lines, "She hasn't been to bed in a week/She'll be dead soon, then she'll sleep." But I can't seem to ever listen to it by itself. I always have to let it flow into Gone.

Last Night on Earth --> Gone =

 

[MsMofoGone]

Yes, this is an AWESOME SONG !! ...
But the video ?? ...
I won't discuss the video ... it makes absolutely no sense !!

 

[prisz25]

I know the video is HORRIBLE!!!
The song is absolutely amazing especially the Mexico City one with the lines in the beginning "I went looking for spirit and I found alcohol, I went looking for soul and bought some style, I wanted to meet God but you sold me religion" GENIUS!!!

 

[intedomine]

The Video is great, better than the Mysterious Ways video.

But it is an amazing song....Love it to pieces.....

My Official Rankings for POP

1. Discotheque
2. Please
3. LAST NIGHT ON EARTH
4. Do you feel loved
5. Mofo

 

[Aardvark747]

"you gotta give it a-WWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY"!!

 

[the soul waits]

I get chills listening to the bassline in Do you feel loved and Bono's squealing voice (do you 'feel' loved)

 

[gareth brown]

Wasn't the 'Last Night on Earth' originally intended to be used for 'Staring at the Sun'?? That MAY explain why it makes no sense judging by what goes on in that...I've only seen it once on that Best of 90-00 DVD, which is a DVD I just can't get into!

 

[Lil'Bono]

I loooooove this song soooooo much!!
