Best U2 track of the 2000's ?

[cobl04]

OK, without testing the segues, I'll take a crack at this:

1. Beautiful Day
2. Breathe
3. Magnificent
4. Kite
5. When I Look At The World
6. City Of Blinding Lights
7. Electrical Storm
8. No Line On The Horizon
9. The Ground Beneath Her Feet
10. Moment Of Surrender
11. Cedars Of Lebanon

Replace Breathe, Magnificent and Electrical Storm with Walk On, Fez-Being Born and *Mercy*, and you've got mine.

 

[AtomicBono]

Oh, The Ground Beneath Her Feet is 00's, isn't it? That's actually my favourite. The end is possibly the greatest thing recorded by anyone ever.

Beautiful Day will be remembered as the best of the decade though, and rightfully so.

Mercy is my third favourite. yes, really. To me it sums up what U2 is all about.

[Axver]

Fez-Being Born.

Not even a contest.

 

[Addicted To Bad]

Magnificent

 

[Galeongirl]

OH and if we can include Live stuff...


Crazy Tonight (Remix).

 

[Vlaco]

The Ground Beneath Her Feet, Magnificent, Electrical Storm, Fez-Being Born, Beautiful Day. This is my top 5 in random order.

 

[Toshman]

I'd say Fez-Being Born then The Ground Beneath Her Feet. Quite a lot of votes for Moment of Surrender, but to me it just goes on a tad to long and really doesnt go anywhere

Oh, The Ground Beneath Her Feet... The end is possibly the greatest thing recorded by anyone ever.

C´mon people, I know it can be tough in terms of U2 BUT the question is:

Simple Q: If you have to pick only 1, what's the best track U2 has recorded/released from 2000 to 2009?


is that it 65980, only 1 ? -


So ?

 

[alanah]

OH and if we can include Live stuff...


Crazy Tonight (Remix).

 

[herci]

moment of surrender,
I made someone listen to it, who doesn't know U2 at all and he is totally in love with this song and has been listening to it several times everyday for about 3 weeks.
How about that? He's a classic musician who sings opera!
I think it's totally awesome!

Love it when that happens!

I made my mom listen to MOS and she liked it.

 

[alanah]

Yeah, MOS is definitely great..I can't stop listening to this song since it came out and now I'm enjoying the live versions, too!..

I actually think the only ‘disappointing’ (if you can call it that, although it’s not at all really) part of MoS for me is that it kind of does go somewhere, that the song wraps itself up at the end. I’d love it to finish the way it begins, just sort of have that train effect trundle off down the tracks and fade away. Certainly not a complaint though, I absolutely adore the song.

 

[astepcloser24]

Just one? Hm. I'd say Walk On, especially in light of what's going on right now in Burma.

 

[LyricalDrug]

Moment of Surrender, followed closely by Beautiful Day.

 

[Sergiodino]

Electrical Storm

or Beautiful Day

 

[cobl04]

interesting... two months ago and every post that didn't say magnificent would have been ground into the ground.

 

[Bonoa]

Hard to choose.....'Sometimes you can't make it on your own', 'Magnificent', 'Elevation'.

 

[Bluer White]

Walk On

(maybe the Brazil version?)

 

[gherman]

Beautiful Day

One of the greatest songs ever made

 

[Addicted To Bad]

Walk On

(maybe the Brazil version?)

Sure !

 

[hatrickpatrick]

Either CoBL or Beautiful Day

 

[burningedge101]

Beautiful Day is the best song they recorded in this period. I think people often won't pick a song like this since it is played out, but they need to get past that.

 

[SamuelSmeloc]

Fez-Being Born, Unknown Caller or The Ground Beneath Her Feet.

 

[trinx]

Beautiful Day, followed by Walk On/Moment of Surrender/Elevation/City of Blinding Lights.

Actually MoS.

Or CoBL.

And Magnificent...

Damn...

I can't do it.

You want the truth?
You want the truth?
DO YOU want the truth??

You can´t handle the truth!!

The Ground Beneath Her Feet

“Play it again, Sam" says Humphrey Bogart

 

[Joey788]

Magnificent
