Loving Johnny Comes Marching Home in Bullet this tour, as well as Stories for boys in Vertigo.

I couldnt really give a ranking.

I think we need a definition of a "snippet". Added verses made by the band are not a snippet in my opinion. Snippet is a part of ANOTHER song(could be by U2 or somebody else). So, "Hear me coming" in One and "Shine Like Stars" in With or Without You are not snippets - they're added verses.

My favorite ones:
Break on Through(The Doors) in The Electric Co.
Two Tribes(Frankie Goes To Hollywood) in Until the End of the World
Gloria(Van Morrison) in Exit
Love Will Tear Us Apart(Joy Division) in With or Without You
Three Little Birds(Bob Marley) in Tryin' to Throw Your Arms Around the World

Off the top of my head:

Running To Stand Still, Dirty Old Town is awesome.
I've always liked "I Love The Crowd" on Electric Co.
Ruby Tuesday on Bad. Molly Malone too. Yeah, every Bad snippet.
Shine Like Stars, of course.

Worst - Current tours 'Bullet the Blue Sky' - Hands That Built America.....

Really? I thought you would have liked that. I think it's a wonderful, solemn, sombre snippet that works well, especially with When Johnny Comes Marching Home.

 

[Aardvark747]

I dont mind the 'Johnny comes marching home' bit too much, but i'd just so much rather here THTBA in full!
And for me, Bullet just isnt sounding the same without it's usual..."100, 200"..part.


(I'll still love it when i'm there live tho!)
