    ok, I just saw it on youtube, it's a good one


    in many ways I prefer it to Modena. More guitar, it's in Croke Park, still has the orchestra, it's full band. But Modena has Bono's voice. And what a voice he had that night

    Agree, this and Miss Sarajevo were really great this night. But I don't know, I don't very like Passengers album, except for this song, Your Blue Room and Beach Sequence, three beautiful songs

    And Bono did the falsetto after "here she comes", he fucked up that part the Sarajevo night + the tape recorder was out of time
  3. I'm just gonna say all of HTDAAB

    Did you ever notice that the guitar in "Is that all" sounds a lot like the guitar in "The Electric Co"?
    They seem to have similiar riffs.
  8. WOW, tough topic... "weakest song" per album.

    There are only a handful of U2 tunes that I don't care for, in fact I could probably count them on just one hand.

    Boy - Shadows and Tall Trees (tough competition on this album)

    October - Scarlett (Again, tough competition on this album)

    War - Red Light (This is really getting tough)

    The Unforgettable Fire - (4th of July - not really a song, but I'll take it)

    The Joshua Tree - Exit (Nearly impossible to pick)

    Rattle and Hum - Love Rescue Me (Just don't care for the song)

    Achtung Baby - Even better than the real thing (Nearly impossible to pick)

    Zooropa - The Wanderer or Dirty Day (never understood these)

    Pop - MOFO (Just not for me)

    ATYCLB - Grace (just not as sexy as the other songs)

    HTDAAB - Fast Cars (Reminds me of a song that Elvis would sing in one of his movies - Again its the competition on the album)

    The guitar riff to Is That All is the same riff as The Cry, which is a mini-song often played as a lead-in to The Electric Co. It's a great riff.
