A lot of people talk about leaving on a high but I just love it when U2 send you home in a deep dark pit haha. Those karaoke endings were disappointing.

Haha, 40 is exempt. It transcends all closers.
Originally posted by SJKamal:Just a random thought. When they tour, U2 normally open and close with a song from the album they're touring. Did they ever close with an SOI song on IE?

Closing songs
- One (36)
- I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For (19)
- 40 (17)
- People Have The Power (3)
- Stand By Me (1)
Stand By Me was Toronto 1 apparently, following Still Haven’t Found...it doesn’t ring a bell as to why it’s not a snippet.
All in all, IE had some of the weakest closers which is a shame.
