[Canadiens1131]

Hawkmoon 269: beautiful, romantic, builds, climaxes
Van Diemens Land: Edge is just awesome
All I Want Is You: cute, pseudo-epic, pretty and honest
Heartland: let's gush about this song! er, let's not
Angel Of Harlem: good, should've been version from movie
Desire: catchy, should've been movie version
God Part II: Bono + Lennon = Achtung Baby(?) Not quite....
When Love Comes To Town: akward, creepy, sexy?
ISHFWILF: the way it was meant to sound (choir)
Bullet The Blue Sky: not too bad
Freedom For My People: street band snippet!
Pride: average, beaten by Harlem street performers
Helter Skelter: band stumbles through a cover
Love Rescue Me: what the fuck is this?
Silver And Gold: heavy and overwrought
All Along The Sucktower: the overdubbing Keptin!

[Axver]

I haven't listened to the live songs for ages, so I'll just do the studio songs.

1. Heartland
2. All I Want Is You
3. God Part II
4. Hawkmoon 269
5. When Love Comes To Town
6. Van Diemen's Land
7. Angel Of Harlem
8. Desire (so much better on Lovetown with the shredding solo)
9. Love Rescue Me

I just do not understand the bashing that When Love Comes To Town gets on this board. It's one of the earliest U2 songs I would say I properly 'knew' and I loved it - when I was about eight or so, I thought Edge was the "guy with the deep voice" rather than BB King. And come on, U2 + BB King = genius.

I really songs 1-6. 7-16 are somewhere between okay and overplayed/overheard. Overall, to me this album varies between unbelievably gorgeous and mediocre or boring.

The weakest U2 album, but it does have some great ones in there. I'm gonna exclude the live tracks(apart from Silver and Gold - majority of the people know this song from this album):

3. All I Want Is You
4. Hawkmoon 269
5. God Part II
6. Angel of Harlem
7. Desire
8. Van Diemen's Land

...that atrocity called Love Rescue Me does not deserve a ranking.

[honeychild]

well I really like when love comes to town, love rescue me, and the gospel version of I still haven´t found....but I guess I´m in a minority!
i don´t know that I could rank the album but my fave songs are probably Heartland and Hawkmoon - and the three songs mentioned above would rank pretty near the top
