WaHAY! "One" voted best.song.evar!

http://www.breakingnews.ie/2003/11/18/story121917.html

Okay, so a few other songs in the top 10 are, for lack of a better term, crap - but U2 got #1! Wahay! Just thought I'd let some of you schmucks know


I wonder what their other 7 songs are? I'm guessing "Beautiful Day," "With or Without You," "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For," "Where the Streets Have No Name," "Pride (In the Name of Love)," "Mysterious Ways," and "Sunday Bloody Sunday"

ONE voted the gretest single ever by Q

This is no mean feat believe me. All i can say is, it took the journos at Q 12 years to figure out what we already knew. Great news.

 

[what a bomb!]

too right!

 

[BrownEyedBoy]

what about "Bohemian Rhapsody"??? oh well...no use in arguing in a u2 forum
Cheers

 

[bayernfc]

It's my favourite song.... deserves to be there!

YAY!!

I've always thought "One" was the kind of song that people will be listening to 1,000 years from now. But what's with people playing it at their wedding? That just doesn't seem like the right occassion for it. Sure, there's a sense of hope at the end, but there's a lot of sadness and bitterness in it too.

I also can't believe they included a song by Destiny's Child but left out John Lennon's "Imagine" or Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On?"

i merged the two threads since they were about the same subject.

 

[rafmed]

Well deserved

pah

the greatest song ever is 'a design for life' by the manic street preachers

and boy do you know it

just kidding, i haven't bought a q in months, i think it's all very subjective though

 

[Axver]

I can see why One would've earned such an accolade ... but personally, I don't think it's the best U2 song. There's at least thirty better than it in my opinion.

 

[beegee]

the greatest song EVER? what a strange list.

 

[what a bomb!]

just sing the song at karaoke and hear how many people sing along to it...thats how popular it is! especially with us guys!

It may not be the best U2 song, but it is the 'best' U2 song. Or whatever.

It is sort of the song which has something extra, it isn't just a song.
