Does U2 have a cd out with their 90's singles/B-Sides?

Rather than buying all the singles, do they have a collection of all these songs on a cd/box-set....90's U2 was my fav...hope they bust it out during 360.

Not really...

The Best Of 1900-2000 limited 2 disc edition had a couple of singles but mostly remixes, I'm afraid you are pretty much stuck having to find the singles so far.

That's too bad, they had so many great 90's singles missing from thr greatest hits double disc - what ever happened to 'pop music'??? They need to play that!

Well that was a cover and they never really did play it live...

U2 didn't play it live, but the song was featured in concert right before U2 took the stage during the PopMart tour. So it was kinda live.

Unfortunately, the b-side disc on the 90's "Best Of" is terrible. I love the main disc on the 90's "Best Of" - I even like the alternate versions of songs. And I felt the remixing on a few tracks really worked well (especially on "Numb"). However, the b-sides was mostly remixes. U2 even left out legit b-side tracks, like "Holy Joe". It's one thing to exclude covers (as they did with their 80's "Best Of" b-side disc), but to exclude their own b-side songs was odd.

So one is left to finding the singles.
