UK only versions of U2 albums?

[U2girl91289]

My dad is going to be in London next week and I want him to buy me a version of a CD (preferably U2) that isn't in the US. Last time I was there, I got Boy with the original cover b/c I couldn't find it in the US. Are there any other U2 albums that are sold in England/Ireland that are different than the versions sold in the US and are relatively easy to find? Thanks!

Some copies of ATYCLB, I believe, were sold in the UK with an alternate track list that includes The Ground Beneath Her Feet. Get it!

I guess this is directed at me, so Sorry- it's just I know that some versions of CDs sold in the UK are different than those sold in the States and I just thought it would be cool to have one since my dad's going to be there. And believe me- I completely agree with Imagine- i wish there wasn't this international division

Hmm, yes, why did we in Australia get The Ground beneath her Feet on ATYCLB (which I am very pleased about!) like the UK did, but we didn't get The Fly on the Best of 1990-2000? And, did anyone else get the limited edition of the Best of with the B-sides and the DVD? I was a bit annoyed as my DVD didn't work ...

I got it, and my DVD worked fine...yours might be a US import or something though in which case the dvd may have the wrong region coding or something...
