| 17. ok, I voted for unforgettable fire, but my heart is with "One Tree Hill" |
|
And in our world a heart of darkness, a firezone Where poets speak their hearts, then bleed for it Jara sang, his song a weapon, in the hands of love You know his blood still cries from the ground It runs like a river to the sea Like a river to the sea
I don’t believe in painted roses or bleeding hearts While bullets rape the night of the merciful I’ll see you again when the stars fall from the sky And the moon has turned red over one tree hill We run like a river to the sea Like a river to the sea
Where the Streets Have No Name comes third.

| 22. Wow, it's hard to choose |
|
But I think it's hard to beat "With Or Without You." I think it's the ultimate break-up song.

ALL time (that includes everybody). The passion in that song is tangible. Joshua Tree totally does it for me: Running to Stand Still, Red Hill Mining Town...U2..what can you say....

is one of the best song openings ever.
I like a lot of U2 up through Rattle and Hum, although I read an interview with the Edge once that sort of dissed Jeff beck in one place and also said something about U2 trying to make the perfect album and if they did they would be done.
Frankly, they should have quit after The Joshua Tree, that is a flawless album.
But FUCK the Edge for his pretensious stance that he could even ever carry Jeff's speakers, let alone guitar case, let alone hold anything near to his own on a stage with JB.

| 26. Someone informed me of an error I was already aware of |
|
The title is supposed to be Bullet The Blue Sky not Bullet To The Blue Sky or any other preposition.It was too late for me to edit the title thread, because I posted the poll and walked away for a while. I hope all of you can respect me after this heinous error:eyes: If anyone wants to have a U2 knowledge pissing contest, by all means: "Bring It On!":evilgrin:
