Little hand says it's time to rock and roll.
Ok Mods, don’t shut this down or move it. This has nothing to do with Tour Setlists.

So lately I have been setting up some pretty cool play lists on my ipod and listening to them as “concerts” to help my day go a little bitter (oops I mean “better). But, I am running out of ideas.

What I am looking for is for people to set up their ultimate U2 concert and post the play list so we can all enjoy it.

Here are a few ground rules:

1. 25 song max
2. Try to make the list have a flow. Obviously some songs don’t go well together. Keep that in mind. (Of course we will all have different opinions of what don’t go together….. that’s part of the fun)
3. Indicate where you are getting the song if it is important (Hasta La Vista “One”)


I think that is it. This will be fun for you and really help me out at work listening to your crazy creations.


Thanks all!
 
I've been playing this one a lot.

1. Stay (Faraway, So Close!)
2. Dirty Day
3. Please
4. The First Time
5. Grace
6. One Step Closer
7. Dancin' Shoes (from the Million Dollar Hotel soundtrack, it's not U2 but Bono actually, anyway it fits)
8. If You Wear That Velvet Dress
9. Your Blue Room

One might put Miss Sarajevo in there, but I've learned that Pavarotti just doesn't fit.
 
COME ON PEOPLE! Help a brother (a Dalton Brother :wink: ) out.


Here is a sample of what I am talking about:

Except for Love and Peace all of these are live tracks

1. 11 O'Clock
2. I will Follow
3. Beautiful Day
4. The Fly
5. City of Blinding Lights
6. SYCMIOYO
7. Mysterious Ways
8. New Years Day
9. Pride
10. I Still Haven't Found
11. Stay
12. Desire
13. Until the End of the World
14. Last Night on Earth
15. Love and Peace or Else
16. Exit
17. Trying to Throw Your Arms Around the World
18. Miracle Drug
19. Bad/40/Streets (brilliant From the Electrical Storm Single)
20. Discotheque
21. Vertigo
22. WOWY
23. Out of Control
24. One
25. 40


I call this the Ultimate U2 Concert (of course if it were a show just for me it would have a lot of different songs, but hey ....)


So put yer heads together and come up with a cool track listing for this poor office grunt.....

Haha I made up a new U2 playlist just the other day that I believe fits your criteria. And of course, it begins with .....

1. Streets
2. Stuck in a Moment
3. Until The End of the World
4. With Or Without You
5. City of Blinding Lights
6. One
7. Pride
8. ISHFWILF
9. Walk On
10. Do You Feel Loved
11. Stay
12. New Years Day
13. HMTMKMKM
14. Running To Stand Still
15. Ultraviolet
16. Beautiful Day
17. Sweetest Thing
18. Mysterious Ways
19. Sometimes ....
20. Elevation
21. Bad
22. I Will Follow
23. All I Want Is You

OK so I came up short but that's what it is
 
Starting with Streets is always a good thing. The Joshua Tree version, not the best of version. Or a live Joshua Tree Tour version.

Yeah, I pretty much always stick with album versions, although I would replace the studio Sunday Bloody Sunday with a good live performance.

Come on people. Do you mean to tell me there are only two people hear willing to contribute an opinion?


Unlikely.

Three, thank you.

I like to have my Top 25 U2 playlist.
It's 25 songs, simply the best.
It changes a lot though, so I kept the original; it's fun comparing where you were four months ago and where you are now.
