The Ultimate U2 Song Showdown

[cjboog]

I know MacPhisto did an album contest a couple months ago and I think it's time for a song contest! Rank your top 10 U2 songs in order and your first choice will receive 10 pts, your second choice 9 pts and so on until in a couple weeks I will count up all the points and declare a winner!

Here are mine:

1. Vertigo
2. City of Blinding Lights
3. Beautiful Day
4. Electrical Storm
5. Pride
6. All Because of You
7. Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own
8. Walk On
9. Mysterious Ways

Good Luck!

since this is the "ultimate" u2 song showdown i guess this means this is the last one

 

[impy13]

That's a pretty shite list you got there, cj.

 

[Nisse]

1. I Will Follow
2. A Sort Of Homecoming
3. Bad
4. One Tree Hill
5. Out Of Control
6. 11 O'Clock Tick Tock
7. The Unforgettable Fire
8. Do You Feel Loved?
9. Shadows And Tall Trees
10. Gone

 

[U2girl]

Top 10 (not necessarily my favourites but what I think are their best songs), not necessarily in this order:

1. One
2. Until the end of the world
3. WOWY
4. Running to stand still
5. Bad
6. The first time
7. Kite
8. 40
9. Original of the species
10. Gone

 

[Achtung_Bebe]

9. Shadows And Tall Trees

I wouldn't necessarily include it in my top 10, but I do like to see SATT get some appreciation.

City of Blinding Lights has been included on 3 of the 7 lists posted so far--I find that surprising.

I don't actually have a list prepared to share, just those observations.
