We Want Acrobat Live, but what about Heartland?

Between Acrobat or Heartland live for the first time, I would prefer to hear Acrobat...But What about Heartland?

It has never been played live and It's a great song....But I guess that Bono cannot sing this song live....

I couldn't care less about hearing Heartland live. I would, however, love to hear A Celebration, or another early single of theirs appear on this tour.

My U2 top ten:

1. 11 O'clock Tick Tock
2. Where The Streets Have No Name
3. Bad
4. The Unforgettable Fire
5. One Tree Hill
6. City Of Blinding Lights
7. Heartland
8. New Year's Day
9. Gone
10. Acrobat

I think you know which one I want to hear.

heartland is not by any means weaker song than Acrobat!! i love it, it just sooths the situation, it calms down the momento...

I would rather see Heartland live than any other U2 song (except Bullet The Blue Sky).

Hey Axver, which version of Tick tock do u like the most then, just out of interest. Cos the studio version seems to get slagged by ppl a lot, but I love that almost as much as the live performences....almost

I'm one of the ones who slags the studio version too - it sounds like U2 were simply trying too hard. But live? It's my personal favourite. 4 November 1981 and 5 June 1983 are absolutely incredible! The former features THREE solos while the latter is the incredible version on the UABRS video.
