Good choices Jick. Atta boy. Keep up the positive posts.

 

[Matthew_Page2000]

Not blown away after the first lister and NOT a hard-rocking record.

Neither was Unforgettable Fire. Or Joshua Tree. Or Zooropa.
Three great albums. What is with this contingent of U2 fans who only want the rockers?? Weird.

 

[tkramer]

U2 has never done a hard rocking album from start to finish. That's why they are so great, they mix it up so much...

 

[Tyagu_Anaykus]

I must say that from this day, Crumbs from your table will always be one of my favorites if not my favorite song of all time.
Something really special happened today while I was listening to this song, so...

Ohh and the ending of the song...

 

[learn2kneel]

1. Miracle Drug!!! (Best song since... ever)
2. City of Blinding Lights
3. Original of the Species
4. Vertigo
5. All Because of You
6. Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own
7. Yahweh
8. Crumbs From Your Table
9. Love and Peace
10. Man and Woman
11. One Step Closer

Probly will change after a few listens. they are all fantastic, i love this album

 

[shart1780]

Dignity passes byyyYYYYYYYYYYY...

That's awesome I tell ya.

 

[AtomicBono]

OK, I've revised my calculations.

1. Vertigo
1. Miracle Drug
1. Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own
1. Love And Peace Or Else
1. City Of Blinding Lights
1. All Because Of You
1. A Man And A Woman
1. Crumbs From Your Table
1. One Step Closer
1. Original Of The Species
1. Yahweh

I think that's the most accurate ranking anyone has posted!

w0rd.

Okay, I'm going to TRY to rank them...

1. Original of the Species (whoever said it's U2 doing The Beatles better than The Beatles did is damn right)
2. Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own
3. Miracle Drug
4. All Because Of You
5. City of Blinding Lights
6. A Man and a Woman
7. Love and Peace or Else
8. Vertigo
9. Crumbs From Your Table
10. Yahweh
11. One Step Closer

Like eveyone else's this list will change in like 5 minutes. I think Axver's ranking is the only truly accurate representation of HTDAAB.

 

[starsgoblue]

Anyone else here try plugging in Electrical Storm into the mix for shits and giggles? It's goes nicely...

 

[mofo82]

good idea may as well add 'neon lights and 'are you gonna wait forever' to the equation

 

[-Macphisto-UK]

Ok here it goes.

Original of the Species is awesome and at number 1.

To rank the rest is impossible, They will constantly change, because they are all great. The stand outs for me tho are SYCMIOYO, LaPOE, COBL, ABOY and Yaweh.

And the rest aren't far off.

 

[sundown]

I think people are seeing Miracle drug for the meaning behind the song and the emotion Bono talked about it with. A great song, but I don't think it's U2's best ever.

I prefer City Of Blinding Lights, Love And Peace, Crumbs and All Because of You at the moment.

 

[coach]

Crumbs rules!!!!!!

I totally underestimated this track!!! It's awesome!

 

[Needle_Chill]

1) Vertigo
2) Love And Peace Or Else
3) Original Of The Species
4) All Because Of You
5) Crumbs From Your Table
6) COBL
7) Miracle Drug
8) SYCMIOYO
9) Yahweh
10) One Step Closer
11) A Man And A Woman

 

[Michael Griffiths]

This is difficult, but after only 1 day, here it goes (this will change, I know it will):

1. One Step Closer
2. City of Blinding Lights
3. Love and Peace...
4. Original of the Species
5. Sometimes You Can't Make It...
6. All Because of You
7. Miracle Drug
8. Crumbs For Your Table
9. Vertigo
10. A Man And A Woman
11. Yahweh

The first 4 songs are classic....the rest are near classic minus the last two, which are very good in their own right.

 

[2861U2]

1) Crumbs From Your Table
2) Original Of The Species
3) Vertigo
4) City Of Blinding Lights
5) Sometimes You Cant Make It On Your Own
6) Miracle Drug
7) All Because Of You
8) Love And Peace Or Else
9) Yahweh
10) A Man And A Woman
11) One Step Closer

 

[TCUFrog]

Crumbs rules!!!!!!

I totally underestimated this track!!! It's awesome!

i agree with that. the song was unexpectedly awesome! my second fav next to lapoe.

 

[j0eiseph]

I still have yet to see ANY brilliance in Miracle Drug. It's just...a song.

I dunno...I'll see.

And those who thought that A Man And A Women was a bad song are idiots.

There, I said it.

Agreed

 

[j0eiseph]

goddamn that falsetto in SYCMIOYO is effn gorgeous!

Its funny that you say that cuz I was just thinking it sounded odd there. Normally I love Bono's (could be edges here, hard to tell) falsetto but I thought it sounded out of place in the song. It would sound perfect if he went into a half-falsetto there like in lemon when he sing "and I feel, like I'm holding onto nothing." Hopefully this will be done live like that because this song is really amazing.

So here is my tentative ranking

1. Crumbs
2. tie -SYCMIOYO, COBL, Original of the Species
5. Yahweh- highly underated
6. Vertigo
7. A man and A Woman (I wish I could rank it higher because its so good)
8. Love and Peace or Else (Great intro, and first minute, but it gets a little repetative. Still very cool though)
9. Miracle Drug
10. All Because of You
11. One Step Closer to Knowing (I just dont like it)

 

[AussieU2fanman]

Ok I thought I might give my take on my favourite songs, never done this before. As you should all know, Miracle Drug is the best song I've heard since 1984's 'Bad,' so that's a Number one.

1 - Miracle Drug
2 - SYCMIOYO
3 - Crumbs From Your Table
4 - City Of Blinding Lights
5 - Original of the Species
6 - All Because of You
7 - LAPOE
8 - A Man and a Woman
9 - Vertigo
10 - Yahweh
11 - One Step Closer

There is a percentage of 0.01% seperating the awsomeness of top track to the bottom.

 

[akhan01]

A Man & A Woman is Brilliant

A man and a woman.. people.. take another look.. It;s infectuous.

I couldn't agree more! I've heard it a dozen times in 24 hours. I simply love this album, but this track in particular soothes me every time I listen to it. Ali Hewson must be melting after listening to this...

 

[Shaizari]

crumbs no.1 blew me away and surprised me, better than walk on as a "rock with a cause and conscience" rocker

 

[Shaizari]

darn man and a woman is slowly working on me....must resist lovey dovey songs hehe

 

[starsgoblue]

A Man & A Woman is a very powerful song! Men, use it responsibly on the ladies....or you'll be in trouble!

 

[djerdap]

I think people are seeing Miracle drug for the meaning behind the song and the emotion Bono talked about it with. A great song, but I don't think it's U2's best ever.

I prefer City Of Blinding Lights, Love And Peace, Crumbs and All Because of You at the moment.

WRONG! We were praising MD long before we knew what was it about. From that legendary spanish shitty clip... And in the end, it is the music that matters.
