There ya go.

The best of U2 done propper. You can all stop whining now. It's been solved by an expert.

Rumors are this thing was released ages ago.

And it's brilliant.

Fucking brilliant.

 

[The Slow Loris]

It's almost brilliant, but it contains 'All Because Of You'....perhaps U2's least brilliant song to date.

 

[Axver]

In A Little While?

Plus, the order's dreadful.

 

[MrBrau1]

you're not an expert.

I am.

Sweaty rock seems to be what everyone wants from U2.

Until they get it.

Then they bitch.

And bitch.

and bitch.

and bitch.

and bitch.

But I'm much, much better than them.

So it stays.

 

[MrBrau1]

In A Little While?

Plus, the order's dreadful.

yeah, you hate anything with soul.

So you don't count.

next.

 

[BigMacPhisto]

In A Little While rocks the house down. Axver only likes the tracks nobody listens to because it makes him fill outside of the mainstream..........as if you could be such a thing when listening to U2.

I'll try my own hand at this later. 26 tracks, ordered. Major props for not including "One" though. Was hardly a Top 20 U2 song, and it only loses more steam after viewing far-too-many tired live vocal performances from Bono.

 

[u2trinity]

What about Stateless & So Cruel , just to name a couple you left out .

 

[Axver]

yeah, you hate anything with soul.

So you don't count.

next.

In A Little While has soul?!

Where you wrote 'soul', you meant 'shit' (you got one letter right, I'll give you that). In A Little While sounds like a frog dying, which is not exactly my definition of soulful.

In A Little While rocks the house down. Axver only likes the tracks nobody listens to because it makes him fill outside of the mainstream..........as if you could be such a thing when listening to U2.

Yeah, that totally explains why One Tree Hill, Bad, Where The Streets Have No Name, and The Unforgettable Fire are my four favourite songs. Because they were NEVER on U2's best-selling album or a Best Of compilation.

And how on earth does In A Little While "rock the house down"? Even if you think it's a great song, it doesn't exactly rock; if anything's going to "rock the house down", it would be something like The Fly or The Electric Co.

 

[Axver]

I don't submit boring lists like this, but I love reading them and watching the shit fly. Axver, I loved your top 11 album list. Not actually the list mind you, which was shite, but the fact that you left "All That You Can't Leave Behind" completely off it and ended the list with "Fuck ATYCLB". Well said--I didn't know you had that kind of vitriol for anything U2. By the way, does Pero still come on here and give you any crap in unintelligble English? Those were the days.

 

[jinn77]

You missed out "Lemon" ya Lemon.

 

[04072511]

Why 26 tracks only??? You could fit a lot more onto 2 cd's.

according to corianderstem (a worldwide authority on these matters), I've been the arbiter of taste in music since 1987.

Was corianderstem on drugs when he said that?
