We've done http://www.u2interference.com/forums/f189/lets-discuss-early-80s-u2-206297.html, http://www.u2interference.com/forums/f189/lets-discuss-late-80s-u2-208510.html, and http://www.u2interference.com/forums/f189/lets-discuss-90s-u2-210329.html, the first being created by 65980 and the latter two being created by me, and I thought we might as well finish it. Same questions as before(omitting the remix question I added for the 90s, because it's not appropriate for this decade the way it was for the 90s):
[size=+2]Regarding everything from 2000 to 2009:[/size]
1) What is the best A-side single in this period?
2) What is the best B-side(you may consider tracks from 2004's "Unreleased and Rare" that don't appear elsewhere to be b-sides)?
3) What is the best non-single track from this period?
NOTE: This had previously been "best non-single album track", but there are enough non-single, non-album tracks in this era that I decided to rephrase the question.
4) What is the best overall album (from three studio LPs) and why?
5) For those in the know, what is the best bootleg available from this period?
NOTE: Even though I said "between 2000 and 2009", you may use performances from 2010 and 2011 if you want to.
6) What are your overall thoughts and impressions of this period of U2? How does it compare to other periods? How well/badly has this material aged?
