What the Vertigo single SHOULD have been. (check it out)

[Lancemc]

The Vertigo single's were good, they could have been better. Just today I burned a mini-cd with what I think the Vertigo single SHOULD have been. You could try this in your computer's media player if you want. It sounds pretty cool.

Vertigo (CD single):
1. Vertigo
2. Are you gonna Wait Forever
3. Fast Cars
4. Mercy


It reminds me of the old Achtung Baby singles with the A-side, then 3 kick-ass original b-sides, like One and Even Better than The Real Thing. I consider these to be two of U2's best singles, and if Vertigo had been released this way, I think it might have even been better than them.

why not save mercy (and maybe even fast cars) for the second and third singles?

There were more bsides with the 80's singles by the way, i think the joshua tree had about 6 or 7 songs that were bsides

although achtung bsides were brilliant, lady with the spinning head, where did it all go wrong, salome
