Your least favorite track on Achtung Baby

[Pero]

So Cruel sucks, but The Fly corrects that mistake by beeing after it

 

[nbcrusader]

Acrobat

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

Trying To Throw Your Arms Around The World.

I used to play it nonstop when I first got it, but now I cannot stand the damn thing.

 

[BEVERLY56]

There are no bad songs on AB! This was my 1st U2 experience, I stole it from my daughter & started listening while I went for my walk. It will always have a special place in my heart! P.S. Wild Horses - Bono sounds so sexy in it! I'd like to ride that wild horse! (LOL)

 

[xtihn]

for me, it' a tie between so cruel and love is blindness.

 

[Numbology]

The only good thing in Trying To Throw Your Arms Around The World is that the song ends.

 

[ultraviolet7]

Tryin' to Throw Your Arms Around The World.
Not bad - it isn't in my skippables list, but not up to standard compared to the rest of the album.

 

[lesallimc]

This is the only CD I listen to all the way through. I love So Cruel. There is something about Bono's voice and the rhythm that drives me crazy. I know it is about a love gone wrong, but I think it is so sexy!

 

[Yahweh]

Dont have a least favourite on that album...I guess thats why its my favourite.

 

[theedge111]

EBTTRT is my least fav

 

[Earnie Shavers]

I love them all.

I'm guessing Trying to Throw... is winning the poll in here though.
Clue to understanding the song - it's straight after Mysterious Ways. And the story told in Mysterious Ways wouldn't be complete without the guilt of the morning after. It's certainly not a filler, it's just the second half of the same story.

 

[jacobus]

all tracks are outstanding. perfect tracklisting. perfect album.

 

[vivaSA]

So Cruel!

 

[STERKERNOG]

It's a really great album, but I think it could have been even better if they did the hard rockin version of Acrobat (like on the outtakes, man that guitar and Bono going nuts!)

 

[BONO'ppetit]

Trying to throw... and ...wild horses.

 

[The Disciple]

So Cruel... even though I like it! That shows how damn well that album STILL stands on its own! Their best!

 

[Bono's shades]

I'd have to say Trying to Throw Your Arms Around the World. Nice enough tune, very important to the album thematically, but not something would I go out of the way to listen to outside the context of AB as a whole. In other words, I would never put it on a mix CD.

 

[*Viviana*]

I love Who's gonnna ride..., so cruel and Trying to trow...

My least favorite song on AB is EBTTRT and I also don't find MW as great as some people say it is.

 

[nickypiemcg]

tryin to throw your arms around the world is one of my favourite songs on the album! My least favourite is "even better than the real thing". I really don't think it's a good song at all. I like mysterious ways but i wish they'd do a different song live (like ultraviolet that would be quality)

 

[U2matthew]

The album still stands up as the best album of the last 20 years. Even Moby agreed with me. I could be wrong on that. They have set such high standards for themselves and every other band that we all should step back a minute and enjoy them a little more.

 

[hcbiggs2002]

It's difficult to chose, it all depends on what mood I'm in, I don't actually dislike any of the songs on the album but it's has to be, looong pause to think.....Acrobat.

 

[grbounds]

the ONLY song I can't really get into is Even Better than the Real Thing. and even that's good for running on the treadmill to!
