The Fly
According to some posts I've read on this forum, Boots was not a successful single, and the album is not selling as well as expected.
Boots was a logical choice because it followed in the steps of Vertigo, but that is the problem, it uses the same formula as Vertigo, and Vertigo was already expanding on the formula used on Elevation.
I would have personally chosen White as snow. It's different kind of U2, not alternative music but has more of a universal appeal. It has calm Bono vocals which is always pleasing.
SEcond choice for 1st single would have been magnificent, because musically it's the best on the album, although it could have been better in terms of production.
Third choice, the song NLOTH, because it has an edge and a catchy chorus, similar to The Fly as first single from Achtung, as an album opener it reminds me for some reason of Come Together from Abbey Road which is the 1st song on the ablum.
