2. Miami
3. Some Days..... "Some days you're in the Army and Some Days it's the Navy..... Lyrical Craptacular
4. New York
5. Babyface

[kkaider]

There are really only two songs that make me cringe when I hear them:

1) Babyface
2) Unchained Melody - sorry if I offend anyone, but I'm not a fan of any version of this song, and U2's version is easily the worst ever

 

[waynetravis]

A Man and a Woman
Wild Honey
Elvis Ate America
Xanax and Wine

 

[JulioArca]

The last 5 songs on War gets my vote.

 

[RademR]

dirty day does suck on record, but it's hard for me to vote something that is sooo good live. so i wouldn't put it on my list, as well as b-sides.

 

[Bonochick]

3. Some Days..... "Some days you're in the Army and Some Days it's the Navy..... Lyrical Craptacular

Not that I'm going to try to defend that song as some great lyrical masterpiece...but the lines actually are "Some days you wake up in the army / And some days it's the enemy".

 

[GibsonGirl]

I will never understand the hate for Red Light.

Three words: "Da da da!"

 

[U2Man]

discotheque
miami
daddy's gonna pay
sweetest thing
new york

 

[Party Boy]

I know i am going to get shot here.. its all about opinions right?

Still havent found what i am looking for - have never liked it
Elevation - utter garbage
Stuck in a moment - more utter garbage

Love Rescue Me/When love comes to town (tie)

[Zoots]

miami

Very nice words from a moderator, huh?
Congratulations, keep on working like that.

 

[U2democrat]

1. Stuck in a Moment (only exception being the acoustic version)
2. Red Light
3. Surrender
4. Elvis Ate America
5. Hands that built America

It's amazing how the first half of War totally trumps the second half.

 

[OnFire]

I can take even the cheesiest of U2 songs but only one stimulates my Creedflex, a pavlovian condition in which the moment the song is recognized on the radio, any other button on the radio dial gets immediately selected.

That song is SYCMIOYO.

 

[Justin24]

99% of the Pop Album sucks (Mofo any one??)
99% of Zooropa sucks

A Man and a Woman
Fast Cars
Yahwe.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

we're leaving B-sides and Covers off because that's just not fair... paint it black cover?

but anyways... for actuall album tracks.

1. babyface
2. grace
3. red light
4. wild honey
5. miami

 

[Yahweh_OMG]

So many Yahweh haters.... I don't get why.... lyrics? Music?
I love that song!

My 5 worst are:

1. Wild Honey
2. Peace on Earth
3. When love comes to town
4. Love rescue me
5. Window in the skies

 

[Zoots]

99% of the Pop Album sucks (Mofo any one??)
99% of Zooropa sucks

HAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!


Anyway, all you Miami haters that have posted here... have you actually tried listening to this song while driving in your car at night on a high speed highway. Try doing that and turning up the volume just before the "here comes car chase.." line and see if it changes your opinion of the song at all. Please try it for the love of Miami.

you mean the car noise would hide some of the painful noise that miami constitutes?

 

[Justin24]

For Pop

"Discotheque" and "If God Would Send His Angels" "Wake up Dead Man is ok.

for Zooropa

"Zooropa" (yes I said it sucked back then but it grew on me. )

Stay (see Zooropa)

The Wanderer

and Lemon are ok.

Well I guess it's 98% suck for both albums then.

 

[xaviMF22]

I thought so....

 

[Zoots]

So you're dismissing the coolest, most badass song in U2's discography as just painful noise?

:bitchslaps some sense into U2Man:

"Discotheque" and "If God Would Send His Angels" "Wake up Dead Man is ok.

Well I guess it's 98% suck for both albums then.

So 3 out of 12 songs and 4 out of 10 songs constitute 2%?

 

[Justin24]

My math sucks so sue me.

 

[IanIinTheSky]

I forgot how horrible Grace was. It has the most annoying lyrics of any U2 song since the October record.


Studio version of Trash, Trampoline, and the Party Girl makes Bono sound like he has a disease.

 

[Zoots]

My math sucks so sue me.

:sues Justin:

 

[Zoots]

Studio version of Trash, Trampoline, and the Party Girl

OMG!!! I forgot about that one! Bono's worst vocal performance by far!!!
