1. What no Surrender? The best. least exposed song in the catalogue?
  2. I don't have a clue. I would be surprised if they are in order, but if it has to be 40 songs I think it'll be these ones. I'd be glad to be proven wrong though.

    I think your list is right on the money except that City of Blinding Lights will 100% be on there.
  4. Are we going to get the SOI mini-suite in the book during the pre-BOY timeline?
  5. you missed original of the species, city of blinding lights and every breaking wave
  6. Not sure what I would delete but I say The Unforgettable Fire and Stuck in a Moment are 2 of the 40. Especially Stuck because of Bono's friendship with Michael Hutchence and the song being about him. I also add that The Fly is one of the chapters / tracks from Achtung Baby....this whole thread is a timely reminder of how awesome and vast U2's catalogue really is.. Breathe could be a chapter too. This whole exercise has the makings of the most robust U2Start poll ever!
  7. I would not be surprised if the the initial release is a greatest hits done acoustically designed for the commercial market, it is a music business requirement nowadays, resell the hits but in a different format. Where the forty songs might come in will be on deluxe / collectors releases for the die hards
  8. Me thinks Walk On is guaranteed for the next tour - rewritten.
  9. I agree. That should have just been in the Instagram video. End of story
