The Ground Beneath Her Feet

[Shawn Bonneau]

If it me or did I miss something.... Why wasn't this song on the Best of CD? Non of the Million Dollar Hotel songs were.

Yeah, I was wondering the same thing too, Stateless is a great song as well

On the Best of 90-2k dvd, GBHF is a bonus track/video

 

[korczykp]

might have something to do with U2 not writing it?

 

[LMP]

and was Stateless and Falling at Your Feet snubbed because it was only Bono and Lanois?

 

[the tourist]

Umm, U2 DID write it.

 

[miss becky]

might have something to do with U2 not writing it?

U2 wrote the music. Salman Rushdie wrote the lyrics.

U2 wrote the music. Salman Rushdie wrote the lyrics.

exactly... which a big reason they might not have wanted it on their best of

 

[isabelle_guns]

there were a lot of songs that should've been on the best of but weren't

 

[LMP]

Lemon, If God Will Send His Angels, Last Night on Earth, Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses, Please...

 

[LeafsNation]

GBHF, should have been on a well as WGRYWH...but the biggest ommissions was Walk On. I could have done without The First Time and the Hands that Built America.

 

[trevgreg]

Could've been on the Best Of, just because it's that good. But yeah, Salmon Rushdie is the lyric writer, so that might've been a reason. And there were a lot to choose from song-wise for the album.

If it weren't for the remixes on the second disc, I could've easily pictured some other b-sides and Million Dollar tracks to make that disc.

 

[D'oh!]

...but the biggest ommissions was Walk On.

i think Bono was quoted as saying both Elevation and Walk On would be on the next best-of.......he said something like 'Walk on needs a home'....(other than ATYCLB) ...

also i think they included only two songs from ATYCLB because it had come out just 2 years before best of 90-00 was released..
