Achtung Baby has long been my favourite ever album. And I've just realised why:
Zoo Station - Awesome riff, as good as ever on the new tour
EBTTRT - Insatiably catchy, sounded great on Popmart
One - Probably the fans favourite all-time U2 song, constantly in top 10 songs of all time and similar awards, an absolute MASTERPIECE
UTEOTW - What needs to be said about this one, an absolute rocker. Brilliant lyrics, the bullfight on the Elevation Tour was stunning
Wild Horses - Has recently become one of my favourite songs. Wonderfully moving lyrics
So Cruel - A heartwrenching ballad
The Fly - Another corker, brilliant chorus and riff, always gets a crowd insane
MW - Another one of my all-time favourite songs, makes you wanna dance and yell out the chorus. Enormous on Popmart
Tryin' - Wonderful on ZooTV, climaxes brilliantly with the "won't you lift me up, lift me up" part
UV - Stunning multi-vocal chorus and epic buildup
Acrobat - Angry, passionate, wonderful lyrically
Love is Blindness - The perfect closer, raw, from the heart, unadultrated
Anyways I just thought I'd share this realisation with you. Going through it track by track like that made me realise that there isn't a single weak track on there, which is an absolute rarity. There is no other album anywhere as consistantly good as AB.
Adam, Bono, Larry and the Edge, for this... I salute you
