Especially a lot of HTDAAB was better live...

I'm surprised that it took 3/4 of the thread for someone to mention Exit. It's practicaly pointless on the album. Besides the fact that the volume's halfway down on most copies of the CD, the only good thing about the album version is that the end of OTH is stuck on the beginning. Exit didn't really explode until it was done live.

Bono's gonna hold up the microphone, so 20,000 people can scream the "Oh can't you see what love has done" bit.

How about songs that just didn't work live?
All Because Of You - Without that second guitar, this song is bland.
The Fly - Bono's guitar always seems to ruin it for me; and Edge typically plays it too slow; it was improved on the Vertigo Tour, but really hasn't sounded good live to me since the opening dates of ZooTV Outside Broadcast.
Gone - I mean, it sounds good, but Edge basically playing kareoke guitar with the other parts piped in seems lame to me.
