By drafts of songs, I mean songs that the band would look at late in the recording process when deciding what to continue to work on or put on the album. Stuff like Rise Up and Be There that didn't make the album or early versions of songs like Desert of Our Love (Still Haven't Found), Native Son (Vertigo) and Always (Beautiful Day).
Rank the albums in order of which you'd love to hear these songs from and why. I'd love to hear the different reasonings.
1. The Joshua Tree
It is really those 30 second clips that has most intrigued me especially after hearing the Rise Up clip and then not be disappointed by the rest of the song. I'd love to see if there were any early drafts of Bullet, Red Hill Mining Town or With Or Without You.
2. Zooropa
Early HMTMKMKM, Wake Up Dead Man and others would be great to hear. The list in Until The End of The World has so many wonderfully interesting titles. Plus I'd love to hear Sinatra (early Stay).
3. The Unforgettable Fire
I'm not sure there would be much but there must be some unreleased songs that came out of Eno experiments. Plus I'd love to hear more lyrics from that time.
4. Pop
More than anything I'd love to hear the versions of 2000's songs that began in the Pop sessions.
5. Achtung Baby
I'd love to hear what happened to Heaven and Hell and She's Gonna Blow Your House Down. I'd love to see early versions of songs take a leap into an actual song and less of a jam. Achtung Baby is like a story that is missing its climax.
6. ATYCLB
How could you resist hearing the transition from Pop to pop.
7. Bomb
I'd love to hear these songs before they were destroyed in production. I'd also like to see if they did anything else in the vein of Mercy.
8. War
I wouldn't expect much in terms of number of songs but Be There and The Drowning Man make me wonder what we never heard.
The rest of the albums probably have little to nothing in terms of songs.
