Does it seem like U2 picks certain types of songs for certain track numbers? To me, it seems like track 5 almost invariably gets an emotional/ballad-type song. Staring at the Sun is jarringly off-key in that arrangement, but going back through Joshua Tree, you have Running to Stand Still, Wild Horses, Stay and Kite. All of them are excellent songs (in my view, anyway), and they all have a similar kind of essence to them.
The closing track (whichever number it happens to be) would seem to be the most obvious number, getting Mothers of the Disappeared, Love is Blindness, Wake Up Dead Man and Grace. The Wanderer is a similarly off-key song amongst those, but that's okay.
Any thoughts on that?
