there are these software programs that give you a general idea. They're like audio spies. :yes:

I'm sure you already knew that :p

so youve been using one of these audio programs since you first started listening to u2? annnnnd the only time youve listened to u2 songs has been through one of these programs?

well then i guess i stand corrected :wink:

notice my choice of words, smarty pants :madspit:


:wink:

to be fair, i dont think it gives you even close to a general idea

when i frist started listening to u2 it was on cassette tapes, they got worn out, then for years, it was cds..

only in the past year or two have we had programs that count number of times a song is played

ive played u2 songs thousands and thousands of times without them being counted, so i dont think the count of 6 of pride on my itunes is even close to an accurate reflection of times ive played it :wink:

When I first posed the question I meant what are your five most played u2 songs on iTunes or lastFM or your iPod. I thought that was understood. Clearly it's impossible otherwise.
 
Trying to throw your arms around the world
Another Time, Another Place
Electrical Storm
The Ground Beneath Her Feet
Ultraviolet

These are from my ipod...I was surprised, they are kind of random and definitely not the ones I expected
 
According to my last.fm:

1. Where The Streets Have No Name
2. With Or Without You
3. Mysterious Ways
4. Bullet The Blue Sky
5. One

So it's Joshua Tree/Achtung Baby all over the place, definitely not expected Bullet so high on my list.
 
itunes

Original of the Species
Be There
Angel of Harlem
Miracle Drug
Sweetest Thing


last fm

Sweetest Thing
I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
In God's Country
Stuck In A Moment You Can't Get Out Of
Mysterious Ways
 
yep according to my itunes..
angel of harlem (334 plays)
spanish eyes (321 plays)
instant karma (live in buffalo) (245 plays)
sunday bloody sunday (235 plays)

:laugh: So True Chizip. I rarely use my ipod for U2 listening. I use it mostly in the gym and I dont' often listen to U2 in the gym so my ipod count is completely inaccurate as to what U2 song I listen ot the most. If I were to guess what I've listend to most in the last year it might look like this......

1. Streets
2. Vertigo
3. Ultra Violet
4. UTEOTW
5. Stay / Beautiful Day
 
And what about the U2 songs you've heard the most in your whole life? I guess the older the song, the more I've listened to it. I think it will be something like this (in random order):

1. Where the streets have no name
2. With or without you
3. Pride (not at all my favorite song)
4. Sunday Bloody Sunday (first u2 song I ever heard)
5. Bad
 
Here's my guess. I'm too lazy to get out the iPod.

1. Stay Faraway So Close
2. Kite
3. Walk On
4. When I Look At The World
5. Miracle Drug


That's just a guess.
 
According to iTunes:

1. Running to Stand Still
2. Bad
3. With or Without You
4. One
5. Walk On

That seems about right, although Walk On's my favorite so I thought that one would come out on top. However, I listen to my UF, AB, and Pop CD's alot and have been listening to UTEOTW live versions quite often, so this may be a little off.
 
According to my I-Tunes....

1. In a little while
2. Mofo (Live at Foro Autodromo, Mexico City, 3 Dec '97)
3. Fire (Live in Werchter, Belgium, July 82)
4. Street Missions (1st Demo Version)
5. Mercy (From How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb Sessions)
 
iTunes:

1. One Tree Hill
2. With or Without You
3. Elvis Presley and America
4. MLK
5. A Sort Of Homecoming
 
Heres my top 5

1. Beautiful Day 119 Plays!
2. Vertigo- 56 Plays
3.Stuck in a moment you cant get out of 53 plays
4.Beautiful Day (Live8) 44 plays
5. Walk On 38 plays

guess my fave song!
 
1>. UltraViolet
2>. One Tree Hill
3>. Until The End of the World
4>. Bad
5>. Tie - Promenade and Heartland
 
iTunes says:

Fast Cars (70 - didn't even expect that)
Indian Summer Sky (60)
Stuck In A Moment You Can't Get Out Of (Acoustic) (57)
Zoo Station (36)
Mofo (31)
 
According to iTunes:

1. Bono & Sinatra (not really U2 but what the hell) - I've Got You Under My Skin
2. The Fly - Live, Vertigo Tour
3. SYCMIOYO (Alternate Version)
4. Flower Child
5. Ultraviolet (Light My Way) - Live from Washington

I'm kinda surprised that they're my top five, I thought Walk On would be there somewhere.....
