The Overlooked Songs

[amerrydeath]

Wire, A Day Without Me, I Threw a Brick, Tomorrow, mostly songs from Boy/October/War/UF that just don't get played anymore. I was listening to Wire live today and I can't believe they didn't play it after the UF tour!

 

[Cute Irish Bono]

Last Night on Earth

Amen! I love the title and the sound!

 

[YBORCITY]

Promanade
Wire
UltraViolet
Last Night on Earth
Dirty Day
HMTMKMKM
Original of the Species
Shadows and Tall Trees
Numb

 

[labell]

Do You Feel Love, IMO is defo underrated.

I don't think there are any more I could think of that are not already listed

 

[I'm Ready]

like a song
in gods country
wire
love is blindness
the wanderer
indian summer sky
sort of homecoming

I've always thought outside of some of the October/Boy obscurities.... The First Time would have to be the least talked about track in these parts. Even though it is on Best Of 1990-2000.

Lyrically that song is.... wow. Bono starting to hit is lyrical peak at that point.

I totally agree with you there....that song is beautiful!!!

Babyface
If God will send his angels
Do you feel loved?
Hold me thrill me kiss me kill me
Daddy's gonna pay for your crashed car
Electrical Storm

Agree with all of those.

Id also add to my list:
A sort of homecoming
Wire
Indian summer sky
Ultraviolet
Numb
Last night on earth
Wake up dead man
The ground beneath her feet
A man and a woman
Fast cars

Do You Feel Love, IMO is defo underrated.

I don't think there are any more I could think of that are not already listed

Do You Feel Loved is the most played song on my iPod 32 times... I heard they tried it a couple times on Popmart and it wasn't very good live. That's unfortunate, I wish they could try it again... though I'd be happy with ANYTHING from Pop this tour.

Does anyone happen to have a live version of this song?

oh, and I agree with most everyone's choices, then again I like basically every U2 song
