Come to think of it ... I shouldn't have numbered these songs
because they're all .. No.1 .. in my book. The fact that there's not
many hit songs listed here ... only means that their music goes beyond their hit songs for me ... and I love the hits too ...
they're just not my all-time faves ...

What an interesting top 5! I was also very surprised to see With a Shout (a good song) in someone's top 10. It kind of made me chuckle. I don't think I could ever bash someone's top 10, it's a matter of personal taste. I first came up with my top 10 before ATYCLB, and it stayed the same for a long time:

1. Pride
2. Ultraviolet
3. Sunday Bloody Sunday
4. With or Without You
5. One
6. Lemon
7. Where the Streets Have No Name (it's great, but I still like Lemon even better!)
8. New Year's Day
9. Zooropa
10 a. Bad
b. A Sort of Homecoming

Since then, 2 albums have came out , I have heard many more rarities, and I have learned much more about the meanings of songs. All of that has shaken my top 10 up quite a bit. This is just off the top of my head, but I'll give it a go:

1. Miracle Drug
2. Bad
3. One
4. I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
5. Sunday Bloody Sunday
6. Lemon
7. Zooropa
8. Gloria
9. Discotheque
10 a. Beautiful Day (the bridge of BD is to die for :drool: )
b. New York

It's kind of strange that my previous top 2 dropped completely out of my new top 10. I just noticed that!
