About a week ago I started a thread called the Ultimate U2 Song Showdown in which I asked people to rank their top 10 favorite U2 songs in order. I gave each #1 pick 10 points, each #2 pick 9 points and so on until each song had a point total. Here are the top 20 songs according to the responses with their point totals:
1. Bad - 228
2. Where the Streets Have No Name - 207
3. The Fly - 138
4. With or Without You - 96
5. Stay - 94
6. One - 91
7. Until the End of the World - 75
8. Running to Standstill - 66
9. Beautiful Day - 51
10. Acrobat - 50
11. City of Blinding Lights - 48
11. The Unforgettable Fire - 48
12. Walk On - 47
13. I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For - 44
14. Gone - 43
15. Please - 41
16. New Year's Day - 38
17. Pride - 34
18. A Sort of Homecomming -32
18. Lemon - 32
18. Sunday Bloody Sunday - 32
19. Zoo Station - 31
20. Mofo - 30
20. One Tree Hill - 30
20. Vertigo - 30
A couple things I noticed -
I didn't expect Stay, Running to Standstill, Until the End of the World, or Acrobat to be in the top 10
I expected Mysterious Ways to make the top 20 but it only got 6 points
I expected Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own to make the top 20 but it only got 7 points
There were over 100 songs that recieved points. If a song wasn't in the top 20 and you want to know it's point total, ask because I have it all written down.
