I’m not necessarily talking about your favorite U2 songs (Although they could be).
I’m not necessarily talking about the ones you listen to the most (Although they could be).
These are the greatest U2 songs of your life. The ones today that – without them, you would be nowhere near the fan you are now. These are the songs that really got you into the band.
I’m interested to see what songs made everyone get into U2.
Here are mine:
1. I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For (Studio)
When I was about 6 or 7, my dad got a huge sound system for our house. I turned on the radio and heard ISHFWILF. It was the very first U2 song I can ever remember consciously hearing. The Edge's guitar tab was absolutely amazing and I thought it was one of the coolest songs and sounds I ever heard in my life.
2. Where the Streets Have No Name (Super Bowl XXXVI)
I was in NYC when 9/11 happened and when I saw these guys on TV play Streets during the Super Bowl, the feeling was indescribable.
3. Miracle Drug/City of Blinding Lights (Studio)
First time I went home for college in Thanksgiving of 2004, it was the greatest vacation I ever took and this song came to define one of the highest moments in my life. Friend of mine had a copy of Bomb for me, and I instantly fell in love with MD and COBL.
4. Bad (Rattle and Hum VHS)
Was over a friend's house when I watched this song played. I immediately went out and bought The Unforgettable Fire. To this day, I still think UF is not only U2's greatest masterpiece, but one of the greatest rock and roll albums of all time.
5. The Electric Co. (Studio)
