Ever since I bought the best of 1980-1990 I've always thought that Pride was a great opener, and i think it would have been a great way to say "look at us, we're back, and we're different!" It's the song that started the second chapter in U2's career. (UF, JT, R&H)

Promenade --> 4th Of July --> Bad probably is the best three-song trilogy in terms of cohesiveness of any U2 album ever, just ask Axver :wink:. So I think those three need to stay together.

Wire needs to be #4 to shake things up between ASOH/UF, and Prom/4th/Bad. I think it fits well after UF because it's high tempo riff at the beginning is a stark contrast to UF's relaxed ending.

MLK is also the perfect way to close the album. Listen to the end of it, and then to the beginning of Streets on JT. It's almost like they're linked.

Are you paying attention to my posts, before you comment ??
EVERY TIME ... I post ... and I mean "EVERY TIME" ...
You obviously misunderstand me !!! :confused: :scratch:

I know War has already been done ... that is why I said
"I've been WAITING for this one ( UF ) ...... NEXT to War" .....

( meaning I was waiting for this one .."next in line" .. after the War thread started ... )

DO YOU UNDERSTAND NOW !!!! :shrug:

Excuse me ... I need some aspirin ... you actually gave me a headache !! :banghead:

That makes two of us :D

Bad (Of course, the live version is MUCH superior, but it's still my favorite U2 song)
The Unforgettable Fire
A Sort Of Homecoming
Wire
Promenade
Pride (In The Name Of Love)
Indian Summer Sky
MLK
Elvis Presley And America (Fun, but that's all)
4th Of July (I just don't consider it much of a song)
 
Oooh, this is tough.

1. Bad - the perfection of minimalism. My second favourite song ever.
2. The Unforgettable Fire - a beautiful landscape painted with music. My third favourite song ever.
3. A Sort Of Homecoming - if it weren't for Streets, this would be the best album opener ever. Stunningly beautiful.
4. Promenade - this song has such wonderful subtle beauty, it's amazing.
5. Pride (In The Name Of Love) - anthemic rock at its best.
6. Wire - maybe U2's bleakest track. Haunting, dark, and excellent.
7. Indian Summer Sky - grossly under-rated brilliant song with some great lyrics that help to provoke and conjure mental images.
8. MLK - a tender and soft closer.
9. Elvis Presley And America - this really does show off Bono's great improvisational abilities. Another horrifically under-rated song.
10. 4th Of July - atmosphere, atmosphere, atmosphere. I hate to put this song so low, but it's naked without Promenade and Bad.
