What are your favourite U2 music videos?

Cactus Annie was born on this very day, 2999 years ago, birthed from a gigantic, gelatinous purple/dark pink creature similar to a slug in shape. It is well known around these parts that one does not ever question Cactus Annie, as she might overheat and explode spectacularly, thus wrecking this forum.

I must just hate Window In The Skies so much that I hadn't realized that they actually made a video for it.

U2 made this video just remind everyone of their legendary status and the company they keep....

Agree with you Mikal, it's not one of my loved U2 songs by any stretch.

FYI to the OP- the One "bar" video wasn't Anton, it was Phil Joanou (director of Rattle and Hum). Anton's video was the cross-dressing one.

And yea, the One bar video is my favorite.

All 3 videos for one were pretty great, I'm not sure if the Anton or the Joanou one is the best.

I like Discotheque the best. At the time it had great shock value

I like Lemon. It shocked my little 12 year old mind and made me a U2 fan for life. I'd never seen anything like it before; I didn't know a rock band could be like that. Then a couple years later I discovered Bowie...

Ditto.

Top 5

Top 5 fav videos:

1) Lemon
2) Crazy Tonight (animated version)
3) Stay, Faraway So Close
4) Numb (Emergency Broadcast Network version)
5) Love is Blindness (from Numb VHS single)

The IGWSHA video is solid.
WOWY is a perfect video for the mood of the song.
I have fond memories of growing up with the videos to Streets and Still Haven't Found too.

I like this video and also I like this version of Whos gonna ride your wild horses better then the album version. This is one time when the accoustic version was better in my opinion.

I agree. It should have had it's place on the best of 1990-2000 set too, like a lot of songs...
