Bad for TUF, definitely. It would be a sin to forget it.
I'd put in I Threw A Brick Through A Window for October, too.

 

[annie_vox]

I'd put Bad too for TUF and A Sort Of Homecoming.

For Boy I'd put Twilight, and Drowning Man for War.

I Will Follow
An Cat Dubh
Into The Heart
Out of Control
The Electric Co.
Gloria
Rejoice
Tomorrow
October
Sunday Bloody Sunday

(don't mind about the others as all the albums are brilliant over all)

[cleazer]

Wire, Tomorrow, and Surrender would all be excellent choices!

Out of Control

Electric Co (you HAVE to pick this track - I'd put it on my best of)
An Cat Dubh
Into the Heart

From October:
Fire
Gloria
October (cos I really like it)

Stranger In A Strange Land
Tomorrow
Scarlet


From War:
Sunday Bloody Sunday
Two Hearts
New Year's Day
40 (cos I really like it)

Seconds


From Unforgettable fire:
Pride
Unforgettable Fire

Bad
A Sort of Homecoming
Wire
MLK
