Please vote for your LEAST FAVOURITE song.

Welcome to the first round for How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb in Best Song Survivor! The object of this game is to find Interference's favourite U2 song. To do so, songs will be eliminated album-by-album in 24 hour long rounds to leave the favourites to contest a final that will determine the very favourite. The top two songs from this album will proceed to the 2000s semi-final. Only original U2 songs with official studio releases will compete. Due to dominating past tournaments and the inevitable likelihood that they will do the same this time, Where The Streets Have No Name and One are not in the tournament and can be assumed default equal #1 over and above the ultimate winner.

In the last round, A Man And A Woman became the first song eliminated from HTDAAB.

11. A Man And A Woman

Yahweh again. It's one of my three least favourites with SYCMIOYO and OOTS, and it looks like the best option of the three to protect One Step Closer.
 
How the HELL was Yahweh not eliminated in the first round? :crack: Am very disappointed in the elimination of AMAAW, one of the only quality songs on the album.
 
One Step Closer to absolute fucking boredom. Shitty lyrics about traffic. So much potential with its atmospheric sounds, just completely wasted.
 
All Because of You... the only good part about it is Adam's tiny little bass 'solo'.

Yahweh's okay... and who's with me in saying it was great live, especially when performed a la U23D?
 
Remarkable support for One Step Closer, it really shows how well the song has aged compared with the other tracks on the album.....credit where it's due, what a lovely tune it is.
 
yeah save Yahweh, we've already had one decent song kicked out and it looks like another's about to leave to save a rather bland track :huh:
 
Yeah the album version's not great... but it's still better than a few numbers here.

Where's the rest of the Hutdab haters? xavi, zoots, rjhnjetcetcetcbox...
 
Yahweh's okay... and who's with me in saying it was great live, especially when performed a la U23D?

I think I'm the only one here that disliked Yahweh live, but loved ABOY. The live version was so boring and it killed the momentum of the encore for me. ABOY picked up the tempo and was a fun rocker live.
