Very funny.

I stop listening to this album whenever Bad finishes, the next 3 songs just aren't worth it

 

[Irishteen]

My favourite album, 4 classic U2 songs, gfirst up bad.

 

[the tourist]

The Unforgettable Fire.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

I would've voted for Promenade. It IS probably my fave from the album. But I botched my vote!!!!

all you have to do is say "oh darling khan, the mod god, can you please change my vote from fourth of july to promenade?

i fixed it for you.

 

[Adam'sbaby]

The Unforgettable Fire

 

[Needle_Chill]

Why doesn't anyone like 4th of July? It's eerie and visceral, I love it!

BTW, I voted Pride.

I think the worst song on the album is Elvis Presley and America.

A Sort of Homecoming


I am sure Bad will win this round and it has become, over the years, a stronger song than A Sort of Homecoming, but it is my sentimental favourite of this album.

I always remember the first time I put this new album on the "turntable" after racing out to get it on its release and being blown away by this opening song.

It was like nothing else that was being done at the time and so different from earlier U2 albums. Epic, poetic, heartfelt, image-laden genius.
