B-sides

[Lilly]

I just got the Best of 1980-1990 the 2-disc set withthe b-sides. They're great. Everybody should have them.

Where did you get it? I heard Best Buy was going to re-release the 2 disc set. I didn't buy the on with the b-sides because I didn't think I liked U2 back then.
If i had only known.

Best Buy does indeed have plenty of copies of the 2-CD "Best Of" set.

Then why did you buy their "Best Of"?

 

[SkeeK]

Is this being rereleased anywhere other than Best Buy?

 

[Lilly]

A good place to check would be...Bestbuy.com. They have a ton of rare CDs, and I don't believe it is any more expensive than going to Best Buy itself.

Good luck

I love this CD - mainly because I listen to Dancing Barefoot incessantly.

Last I checked, the double set was available at Amazon.com

God has got his phone off the hook, babe...Would he even pick up if he could?

Great, now people don't think I like U2...I knew the songs on the best of, but I didn't know any on the B sides, that's why I didn't buy the copy with the b sides.

Same with me - The Best of 1980-1990 was one of my first U2 purchases. I had the choice between getting the one with the B-sides or the one without...I opted for the one without because I didn't recognize any of the songs. (Well, except 'The Sweetest Thing', but I thought naively "Hey, it already coems on the first CD, why do they have it twice?")

If only I had known how much I would grow to love U2...if only I had known...

The 80-90's B-sides are pretty cool.
If only they'd done the same with 90-00....

Hey! Lady With The Spinning Head Extended Dance Mix is friggin' off the charts cool.

Don't you go dissin' Lady With The Spinning Head Extended Dance Mix.

I pity the fool who hates on Lady With The Spinning Head Extended Dance Mix.

You can also buy the b-sides on iTunes. Unfortunately, you have to purchase them track by track, which comes out to $15.

And you can't get the cover songs on iTunes.
