I think a Man and Woman is a little underrated. I find it to be the most unique song on the record. To each his own i guess. Overall, great record.

10 One step closer
11 City of blinding lights (judging from other posts i'm the only person who dislikes this song, MAybe it'll grow on me)
 
Hmm ... this is really hard. Let's see where I get to.

1. City Of Blinding Lights
2. Crumbs From Your Table
3. Yahweh
4. Miracle Drug
5. One Step Closer
6. Original Of The Species
7. Love And Peace Or Else
8. Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own
9. All Because Of You
10. Vertigo
11. A Man And A Woman

I think 1 and 11 are pretty fixed, but the rest could seriously move. SYCMIOYO, for example, could easily swap with Yahweh.

3. SYCMIOYO
4. LAPOE
5. COBL
6. Vertigo
7. MD
8. CFYT

2. City Of Blinding Lights
3. Vertigo
4. All Because Of You
5. Crumbs From Your Table
6. Original Of The Species
7. Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own
8. Miracle Drug
9. One Step Closer
10. Yahweh
11. A Man And A Woman

I've been listening to Crumbs, All Because Of You and One Step Closer a lot lately and still can't stop listening to Vertigo. :ohmy: I think in the end LAPOE is my favorite song but I can't tell anymore. :)
 
Original Of The Species 10
Love And Peace Or Else 10
All Because Of You 10

Sometimes You Can't make It on your own 10
Vertigo 10

One Step Closer 9.5
Crumbs From Your Table 9

11. Crumbs... 8

Mercy 9.5
Are You...? 7.5
 
Im surprised how low AMAAW and OSC are.... I don't know but for OSC I find that Bono's father not having faith when he died and then Bono writing a song about it very intriguing, that his father is "one step closer to knowing" whether or not there really is a God

If Mercy was on the album it would be in the log-jam for second place. I honestly cannot decide between all these songs. No way. The difference between how much I like Sometimes.. and Crumbs are almost non-existent. Love and Peace is last because I'm not feeling this song yet. But I love this album :)

I'm kind of surprised about One Step Closer, too. I think it is a fantastic song. Honestly, I find One Step Closer to evoke many more powerful emotions in me than Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own. As for A Man and A Woman, I think it is a good song, but just a little too Euro-popish for it to be great. But it still fits in well with the other songs in the set.

AMAW Is the only one I can't really get into. I just keep hearing Sting. and I have decided that is not a good thing

I think MD is over rated by a lot of people. It's good, it's soli, but it just hasn't got an X factor for me which screams classic.

The top 3 have switched places in the last week. First it was OOTS then SYCMIOYO and now LAPOE. But they're all brilliant and for me the the stand out tracks on the album.

One Step Closer is just starting to hit, always reminds me of the ocean when it starts out.
 
1 City of blinding lights
2 Crumbs from your table
3 Original of the species
4 SYCMIOYO
5 A man and a woman
6 Miracle drug
7 Vertigo
8 All because of you
9 Love and peace or else
10 Yahweh
11 One step closer

first six are subject to change as the favourite song keeps changing the more i listen to these songs.
i wish i could get into LAPOE cos i keep hearing gary glitter glam rock on it....and no idea why AMAAW is ranking so low with folks...its a lovely tune with a perfect radio friendly structure.
OSC is just pants as a tune IMO. i dont like yahwehs chorus...it gets annoying after a while.
 
1) Miracle Drug
2) City Of Blinding Lights

I currently have 11 favorite songs on this album. I know that's a cop out but it's too hard to rank them! :wink:
