Title is self-explanatory. What songs, more than anything, do you wanna see live? I'd prefer you don't select songs that are never leaving the current setlist, because obviously you will see those (i'm talking Streets, One, BD, Vertigo, WOWY, etc.)

Here's Mine:

1-Bad/All I Want Is You [I honestly couldn't decide; I'd be so happy with either]
2-New York
3-One Tree Hill
 
I'm going with songs they have played in recent memory and are more likely to play than something that I can't even suggest with a straight face, like Mofo.

I'd love to see Bad again - I saw it in Chicago in '09, and it's more than past time for it to return.

New Year's Day. I always love hearing it.

One Tree Hill. Although maybe it is laughable to think they'll ever play this in the States again. :wink:
 
this is a better setlist thread!

Running to Stand Still. I love me some Miss Sarajevo, but I can't say I wasn't hoping against hope that the opening piano would lead into Bono's paean to seeing the world through different eyes.

A Sort of Homecoming. In the lead up to the concerts I sometimes pretended I was Bono and said "we love come to Australia. We're from Dublin, sure, but this is a sort of homecoming for us."

No Line on the Horizon. WOULD HAVE KILLED!!

Also, Gone. I stopped following setlists before my shows, and as HMTHMKMKM began at Melbourne I, I heard sirens, and I thought Gone was back.
 
I laughed to see you list NLOTH, because of course! They totally should add it back in.

Then I just got a little sad.

:wink:
 
Oh damn, I forgot NLOTH. I saw that one in Vegas '09 and it was one of the highlights of the show for me. That would be great to have return back to the setlist.

Also, if they don't switch up the set more for the next NA leg, I sincerely hope they do the HMTMKMKM > UV encore opener again. I'd really love to see that.
 
^^

And a shame that they haven't played it in the past four shows. Many people actually know the song though - I'm surprised my dad and my uncle knew the song when watching the 360 DVD. :lol:

Count me in for the return of a HMTMKMKM / UV encore, Bad and NLOTH please. We need more songs to take out IALW of the show for once. I don't mind Miss Sarajevo though, great song and transition to COBL.
 
Ultraviolet is soooooo good live too. Such a shame that only three people in the stadium know what it is.

And, in Melbourne's case, one of them was me, resenting its very presence in the set.

If I were seeing another show (which at this point, even if I got the opportunity I'd decline), I'd want to hear more than anything:

11 O'clock Tick Tock
A Sort Of Homecoming
One Tree Hill, even if they butcher it with some random chick
 
Adding Running To Stand Still and Trying To Throw Your Arms Around The World to my list.

I think that RTSS would be a great replacement for the IALW>MS segment.
 
Bad. It is the one song that I absolutely must hear live, because I know it is a possibility and really only a matter of time and luck. It just pops up sometimes and I need it to pop up when I'm there.

One Tree Hill. As far as I know it's been a long time since U2 have played it outside of NZ/Australia, and they did yesterday...so it got me thinking maybe there is a chance. It's in my top 10-ish favorites , and to me is a beautiful representative of lesser-known JT songs.

Out of Control. My second favorite from Boy, and I consider this to be unlikely but definitely not impossible.


Really, Exit and Hawkmoon 269 are the two songs I would most absolutely die to hear, but neither will ever ever happen.
 
Songs that were played on 360 that I would like you see (that I didn't see at my 2 shows):

Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me
One Tree Hill (sans Francisco Venezuela - as Bono calls her - if possible)
Bad
(honorable mentions go to Your Blue Room and Electrical Storm)

Songs that I would generally wish to experience live:

Acrobat
Love is Blindness
MOFO!
 
One Tree Hill. As far as I know it's been a long time since U2 have played it outside of NZ/Australia, and they did yesterday...

In 2006, after they played One Tree Hill at the two Kiwi gigs, they also played it at two Japanese shows.

It hasn't been played in Australia since 1989.
 
One Tree Hill, Bad and Exit :applaud: Acrobat would be awesome but unlikely :( Like a song from POP these days lol :)
 
no line on the horizon (yeah guys, ditch one of the new songs that people know)
last night on earth (jesus christ, they're pretending they're on a spaceship anyway)
zooropa (something in parenthesis just so my post looks even)
