I'll wait n see what happens. I'd sacrifice quite a few here to try and save Velvet Dress....

What's people's issue with Velvet Dress? Of what's here at least SATS, Angels and Miami are much worse.

Yeah I don't know! What a great song, and a little bit unique in U2's catalog.

I'm holding my vote to see what's happen, I don't want to see "Velvet Dress" out this early.

Just because someone casts a vote on the internet in some stupid song poll doesn't necessarily mean that they hate the song they voted for or that they even have any real issue with it.
This is one of my ten favorite albums of all time, by anybody ever, and I voted for Velvet Dress because I enjoy it slightly less than some of the others. I still love it, and don't have a problem with it. It's just the rules of the game.

I can't vote for Miami or Velvet Dress. May have to vote for Staring at the Sun or Wake Up Dead Man, but I really wish Gone was on the chopping block. I've never understood why it is so embraced in these parts. Great song indeed, but better than the excellent songs on this cracking album? Certainly not in my mind.

WUDM again. At least Miami is fun.
It doesn't do anything for me.
It's probably down in my bottom 5 U2 songs with stuff like Babyface.

You're the fucking scum of the earth and don't deserve to breathe, really.
You have some strange, strange opinions my friend.

Pop is such a tough round. So many awful songs, so difficult to pick which is worst.
Since Pop sounds less like a U2 record than Passengers does, perhaps it should have gotten the express dismissal that Passengers clearly didn't deserve.

Although I like it more than I did (it was my least favourite U2 song for years), IGWSHA is still fairly boring, and deserves to go now. How was it chosen as a single ahead of Mofo, Do you Feel Loved or Gone is beyond me.

I still like Pop but it was the first U2 album I was disappointed by upon 1st listen, to be honest I knew I was in for a let down when I saw the album cover.

As do I.
Staring at the Sun is bland and Miami was a bad idea. Otherwise, I adore this album.

It's fascinating to hear all the different opinions of these songs. It really is a strong album. Miami for me, WUDM is next. IGWSHA and Velvet Dress are both great songs, and don't deserve to go yet.

The lyrics of If God ... are atrocious (while the superb quality of the lyrics is the saving grace of POP), but musically it annoys me even more.
At least Miami has some interesting bits & pieces.
I hope MOFO, Wake Up Dead Man and Discothèque will go through.
Most of the rest is just bland.

This is ... incorrect.

No, it's not.
I would rather memorize all the lyrics to Bomb (probably their weakest album lyrically) than being forced to read the lyrics of If God ... once.
They are embarrassing, even compared to other (relative) Bono clunkers.

Come on man, how can you dislike the lyrics to this song? I believe it was the first hints of Bono's "phone call from God" thing...
God has got his phone off the hook
Babe would he even pick up if he could?
That's brilliant man. The stuff of country songs.
