U2 opened the Grammys tonight, even if they aren't up for any awards until next year.
Nearly five years ago, I blogged by favorite U2 songs.
Now here's another try, probably much the same. Let's see how things change (or stay the same). In no particular order:
Until the End of the World
Beautiful Day
40
I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
Please
North and South of the River (favorite non-album track by far)
I Will Follow
Sunday Bloody Sunday
With or Without You
Desire
All I Want is You
Yahweh
City of Blinding Lights
U2 single most likely to skip: Stuck in a Moment
Other songs I can't quite put on my list but I would like to: The Fly, Mysterious Ways, One, Elevation, Vertigo, Walk On, Lemon, Stay, Pride.
Song I hope U2 closes their last ever show with: 40. No question about that one.
Lesser known songs I really like: Lady with the Spinning Head, Gone, When Love Comes to Town, Mofo, Dirty Day (Junk Day mix), Acrobat, Lemon
I do like the new single, Get On Your Boots. It's growing on me. I've been especially feeling the bass line. I think I was so caught up by the lyrics / delivery and guitar part to think about the bass part, but I like it more on each passing listen.
