1. As U2's official albums are usually composed of 12 songs, then I have made a best of 12 songs album based on my impression at the moment ( which may change after subsequent listening ). In no particular order ----------

    1) Lights of Home
    2) The Miracle ( of Joey Ramone)
    3) Two Hearts Beat as One
    4) Electrical Storm
    5) Desire
    6) Invisible
    7) Song for Someone
    8) The Fly
    9) All I Want is You
    10) Dirty Day
    11) I Still Haven't Found What I am Looking For
    12) 40

    I think the above collection is a very respectable looking effort by U2 if they would decide to release a usual 12 songs album from those 40 songs unusually lengthy album.
  2. 1) Vertigo
    2) Pride
    3) With or Without You
    4) I Will Follow
    5) Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses
    6) Red Hill Mining Town
    7) 11 O'Clock Tick Tock
    8) Sunday Bloody Sunday
    9) Bad
    10) The Little Things That Give You Away
    11) Lights of Home
    12) All I Want is You
  3. 1. Bad
    2. Sometimes you can’t make it on your own
    3. The Miracle (of Joey Ramone)
    4. If God will send his angels
    5. Stay (Faraway so close)
    6. Lights of home
    7. City of blinding lights
    8. Miracle drug
    9. Invisible
    10. One
    11. Vertigo
    12. The little things that give it away

  9. I don't particularly have a top list right now. It's the kind of collection that I could just put on and play. I do still have some favorites, but I don't really dislike any of the tracks at this point- even the Miracle with its odd chorus gets played if it comes on 🤣
  10. Yes, this is true..... Every song has some redeeming quality. But I just made this thread in the light of U2's past albums' usual number of songs which was usually 12.
  11. Stories For Boys
    11 O’Clock Tick Tock
    Beautiful Day
    Every Breaking Wave
    Ordinary Love
    Electrical Storm
    The Fly

    Two Hearts Beat As One
  12. I’ll chip in with my current 12:

    Invisible
    Lights of Home
    Bad
    Sometimes you can’t make it…
    If God will send….
