The Recommend a Tracklisting Thread

[cjboog]

This thread is for anyone to recommend a track listing for any U2 album. Past threads like this that I have seen have been limited to one album, but feel free to post your custom lists for any album you want. I was listening to HTDAAB in this order today and think I will always listen to it this way now:

1. Somtimes You Can't Make It On Your Own
2. City of Blinding Lights
3. Crumbs From Your Table
4. Miracle Drug
5. One Step Closer
6. Original of the Species (single mix)
7. All Because of You
8. Vertigo
9. Love and Peace or Else
10. A Man and a Woman
11. Yahweh

 

[Axver]

I've posted this a few times before, but here it is again: my expanded Unforgettable Fire with Promenade twice (because it flows perfectly well in both positions):

1. A Sort Of Homecoming
2. Pride (In The Name Of Love)
3. Wire
4. Indian Summer Sky
5. Boomerang I
6. Boomerang II
7. Love Comes Tumbling
8. Sixty Seconds In Kingdom Come
9. Elvis Presley And America
10. Bass Trap
11. Promenade
12. The Unforgettable Fire
13. Promenade
14. 4th Of July
15. Bad
16. MLK
17. The Three Sunrises

The Three Sunrises is last because it flows nicely out of MLK and creates a great loop back to the start.

give either a try, they don't fail in my opinion. Joshua Tree [above] is great early summer listening in my opinion, partly because I don't let myself listen to the album [in it's original form or otherwise] any other time!

 

[cjboog]

anyone else like starting bomb with Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own?

 

[typhoon]

I've posted this A BILLION TIMES before, and we all know it better than the actual Unforgettable Fire tracklist (however that goes) by now.

I'm just kidding, I love you.

Anyway, here's how I listen to HTDAAB:

• "Love and Peace or Else"
• "City of Blinding Lights"
• "All Because of You"
• "Are You Gonna Wait Forever?"
• "Vertigo"
• "Miracle Drug"
• "Fast Cars"
• "One Step Closer"
• "Original of the Species"

Cuts out all the boring songs.

 

[scottyT]

i like to start How to Dismantle an Atomic bomb with All Because of you.

i wish they'd done more concerts that way, starting with that amazing (and those amazing) note (s).


incredible.


congrats on the award U2 band boys!
