love this thread!

check out my name-- i've always claimed this little wisp of poetry as my fave U2 song --the imagery is so beautiful. it just grabbed me in my more bohemian, romantic college days and it still gets me everytime. it's also been sort of a talisman for me--i listened to it as i was getting ready for my wedding and sweating thru contractions giving birth to my sons. (my husband learned to make room for bono long ago!)

"All I Want Is You" does not get enough attention. For example, I think it's the only U2 song that has a sequel. ("The First Time" from Zooropa.) It is probably the ultimate U2 love song (okay, matter of opinion). And it has that awesome long guitar solo from Edge at the end and it has Bono practically weeping "You...all I want is you...all I want is you..." and it has that awesome bass part and..and...

Okay, everyone knows it is my favorite U2 song of all time, I will shut up and go hide in IAMJ again now.

I love "All I want is you," especially now that I can play it on my guitar!

Stories for boys, with a shout and Acrobat are always playing on my 11 year old (soon to be 12!

) son's boom box.
He seems to enjoy the old U2 music a bit more than the newer one, I think he identifies with it because of the age thing, you know the idealistic/thinking phase.
Mothers of the Disappeared makes me cry to, the story is too close to home for me.

Wild Honey makes me dance and sing at the top of my lungs, it's just a happy, sweet tune.
