Thinking only of official studio-versions here... "The Fly", for example, is an absolutely brilliant record and recording, but as a song it wouldn't make the top ten or twenty. And as live song, "Please" would certainly make the top ten, but in its variant studio versions, it doesn't quite:

Top Ten:
Bad
Pride
Where The Streets Have No Name
With Or Without YouThe Fly
I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
All I Want Is You
The Fly
One
Stay (Faraway So Close!)
Beautiful Day


And, just as good as those ten...:
A Sort of Homecoming
Please
City of Blinding Lights


Honorable Mention:
New Year's Day
Running To Stand Still
One Tree Hill
Until The End of The World
Mysterious Ways
Vertigo
 
In no order except the top one
