It's time. We've bitched. We've moaned. We've whinged.
"It's good, but it's missing ____"
"It's a poor representation and..."
"I can't believe it's missing these four songs...."
Interferencers will now reconstruct The Best Of 1980-1990. Sure, we've had threads before saying what could've been, but without (to the best of my knowledge) a cumulative result.
Here's the rules:
1) Your list of tracks can only come from the 80's. I know that "1990" is part of the title, but we all know about the sonic sound-shift that U2 went through by the time 90 rolled around ("Night and Day", anyone?).
2) You can only list whatever would fit on a CD. Make a playlist or add together the runtimes if you have to. If your ballot is obviously over 78 minutes, it won't be counted.
3) A song has to be on at least 65% of the ballots to warrant inclusion. In other words, our definitive U2 compilation of their first decade might not necessarily entail a full compact disc's worth of material.
4) List your preferred mixes if necessary. If the final tally gets to the point where we can squeeze an extra track on if we make one a single mix, then we'll have a runoff vote for such a determination (which song should be shortened, if any, etc...)
You may now begin.
My choices for Interference's Best Of 1980-1990:
1. A Day Without Me - 3:12
2. I Will Follow - 3:37
3. 11 O'Clock Tick Tock - 3:44
4. Fire - 3:51
5. Gloria - 4:12
6. New Year's Day (Single Edit) - 3:53
7. Sunday Bloody Sunday - 4:34
8. Pride (Album Version) - 3:49
9. The Unforgettable Fire - 4:36
10. Bad - 6:09
11. A Sort Of Homecoming (Live From Wembley) - 4:06
12. With Or Without You - 4:56
13. I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For - 4:37
14. Where The Streets Have No Name (Single Mix) - 4:46
15. One Tree Hill - 5:23
16. Desire - 2:59
17. Angel Of Harlem - 3:47
18. All I Want Is You (Single Edit) - 4:14
Time: est. 76.5 minutes
