ordinary love would be a solid closer
Better than One or ISHFWILF, that's for sure.

Yes, always good to end on a song half the audience won't know.
I mean, I liked MOS as a closer on 360, but I know a lot of the "casuals" (yeah, yeah, I know, just go with it) had no idea what that song was, and overall it makes it feel anticlimactic if only a quarter of the crowd is singing along or into it.
I really love the set as it is, but there's room for improvement.
Arena dark, no lightbulb.
Bono enters from the e-stage singing the intro alone, walking down the ramp to the i-stage, the rest of the band is behind him.
Bono turns on the lightbulb, Edge starts on the piano....

I'm keeping this realistic, sticking largely to what the band have already rehearsed and generally following the themes established by the current setlist. And yes I've gone slightly longer, because if you're not going to have an opener you really should try to push past the 25 song barrier.
