Edge time! what's your favorite U2 song, if you only consider the guitar
with or without the solo, in chronological order.
__________________with solo: 1) Pride 2) The fly 3) UTEOTW 4) Kite 5) WILATW without the solo: 1) Bad 2) WOWY 3) Heartland 4) Light my way 5) Always honorable mentions: 1) Promenade 2) Streets 3) One (along with pretty much all of AB) 4) Some days are better than others (because it's so different) and Babyface 4) solo in If you wear that velvet dress/Gone 5) New York/Walk on/In a little while best riffs: the ones on AB can all share Top 5, i think. with BD and Zooropa. ------------------ "be uncool, yes be awkward" - Always [This message has been edited by U2girl (edited 10-14-2001).] |

Always hard to choose favourite anythings for me U2girl, but just the other day I put on a U2 album. I was outside working in the garden and an intro to a song started and it brought out the most powerful memories/emotion in me. I said at the time, as I dashed inside to turn it up, that is THE U2 song for me.I had so much hope back then when I first heard it..I see it topped your list
__________________![]() As me tomorow and I'd have a different answer. Isn't that another amazing thing about U2, the breadth of their talent, just how many great songs they have created? |

All I want is You - just bloody unbelievable and not just at the end - Edge builds up slowly throughout the song and then just lets it rip - God I love it !!
also Bullet the Blue sky( visually breathtaking on R&H video)and The fly of course must go - will be late for wrk Pamela |

Actually a good question I think.
My picks would be: "Heartland" "Until the End of the World" "Please" and of course ... "The Fly" ~Zoo~ ------------------ " They had the Vision, but we had the Television " - The Edge " The greatest lesson you'll ever learn - is to love, and be loved in return" - David Bowie "Hey John Lennon ! We don't need your help." - Bono |
