1. I've been wondering what songs U2 might put on their next "Best Of" package, assuming that they can release it on Universal even though ATYCLB and HTDAAB were on Island. Since "Walk On" and "Elevation" were not on the 1990-2000 Best Of collection, I am assuming those will be included, along with tracks from HTDAAB and NLOTH. Since U2 don't define their "Best Of" in terms of only singles, it seems like there are many candidates from the latest album. Here is what I would include (edited to reflect latest news about the upcoming album, Songs of Ascent):

    Walk On (ATYCLB)
    Elevation (ATYCLB)
    Kite (ATYCLB)
    Vertigo (HTDAAB)
    Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own (HTDAAB)
    City of Blinding Lights (HTDAAB)
    Original of the Species (HTDAAB)
    Mercy (unreleased, could be used as a new single)
    Window In The Skies (maybe a live or alternate mix)
    Wave of Sorrow (Birdland) (JT 20th anniversary edition)
    Get On Your Boots (NLOTH)
    Magnificent (NLOTH)
    Breathe (NLOTH)
    Moment of Surrender (NLOTH)
    Every Breaking Wave (Songs of Ascent)
    1 or 2 more from Songs of Ascent


  2. Way too early to tell. There'll always be a single release too.

    Doubt Wave of Sorrow will be on there.

    Dont think BD and Stuck in a Moment would be on the next one since they were on the last one. At least I hope so..
  8. Who cares this is the first album in in 16 years that i can listen to a U2 album without]
    skipping a song so just get our boots on


  9. Oh, didn't know that(I haven't heard best of 1990-2000)
  10. Definitely Vertigo and City Of Blinding Lights.


  11. Best of 2000 - 2010 - two of their biggest hits? I reckon so.
