VOTE FOR YOUR LEAST FAVORITE SONG

Polls will remain open for 24 hours for the non-album track rounds.

Songs in this round:

- Levitate
- Love You Like Mad
- Flower Child
- Smile
- Native Son
- Xanax And Wine
- Beautiful Ghost/Introduction to Songs of Experience
- Wave Of Sorrow (Birdland)
- Desert Of Our Love
- Rise Up

Criteria for song selection (at least for the albums): anything on the regular pressings of the Best Of 1980-1990, Best Of 1990-2000, and U2:18 is excluded.

This last round is a bit of a mish-mash. Unreleased tracks from HTDAAB and the previously unreleased JT era tracks. While they did obviously get an official release in 2007, we put them here anyway.
 
Yup, Desert of Our Love for me too.

It's weird, I find most of the J. Tree era songs to be more boring than the ones from the recent eras. It seems like it shouldn't be that way, but it is. I guess there's a reason they kept a lid on some of those J. Tree songs.
 
I'm voting for Beautiful Ghost until it's gone. I don't want Bono muttering poetry over some dull music. DO NOT WANT.
 
Beautiful Ghost.

Can't decide what I want to win.
Its a 3 way tie between Levitate, Smile and Xanax.

P.s. Thankyou so much for sending Native Son, Bonocomet. Much appreciated.
 
Who the hell's voting for Rise Up? It's easily the best of the "unreleased" JT tracks, better than most of the b-sides, and even superior to one or two album tracks (especially TTYW).

Yeah....Rise Up`s pretty cool.
I also thought it was the best of the unreleased songs from the JT remaster.

Cheers ,

How can you say that? It is one of the most beautiful and atmospheric things the band has ever done. I can't believe so many people can't appreciate its creativity.

Because it's not a song, it's Bono reciting poetry over a string section.

Haven't decided on my vote, but Beautiful Ghost has never impressed me.
 
How can I say that? Because I don't like it. I appreciate that it's different, but I don't like it.

I'm going to close this thing early tonight, because I gots me a Duran Duran concert to go.
 
I actually mildly enjoyed it till the poetry. I thought that more than ruined it. Still, I think it's more self indulgent than anything on Passengers.
