  • Nm I would in a little while number 2 and make with or without you 4 and one 3

  • Pretty good list. I would switch #1 and #2 and throw in in a little while as number three

  • there's no way you would make the same list as I would, nor anyone else. The cool thing is, you might happen to introduce a newbie to great songs like Zooropa, Hawkmoon 269, Bad, and All I Want is You, so thanks for taking the time to make a list! Now if only we could introduce people to u2's awesome live recordings/bootlegs...

  • Wow what a collection, possibly the most talented band ever

  • and... where is with or without you and One?! because I love them! U2= very good group!!!

  • With or without you will always be number 1.

  • Since it is yout personal taste I will not say you are wrong. But I strongly disagree with your list> At least you took the time to do a list. So, good for you. Good job.

  • Where the streets have no name and #1 should switch...

    Elevation?

    Miracle Drug?

    In a little while?

    Sometimes you can't make it on your own?

    Otherwise, perfect.

  • Hummm ok... but I still haven't found should be higher

  • great choice :D cheers!

  • mom got me into u2. LUV THEM!!!!

  • ...thanks for posting...

  • Im dissapointed they only showed one side of u2's music though using albums like the unforgettable fire. I think joshua tree and walk on were great. Im only 14. My dad got me into u2. Im glad he did.

  • The 360 tour is the tour of a lifetime. Also there are a few great songs in the no line on the horizon album. It doesnt get enough attention. Anyway my 5 favorite in no particular order are sunday bloody sunday, kite, magnificent, love and peace or else, and original of the species.

  • i think the top 3 are the most accurate but good list!!

  • bello molto bello

  • they all look the same...

  • i still havent found what im looking for should be much higher in my opinion

  • that phont is annoying!

  • Running to stand still over "mothers". Even Better Than the Real Thing over Original of the Species. Please is too high up.

  • elevation?

  • my top 5 5.vertigo 4.with or without you. 3.still havent found what im looking for 2. beautiful day 1. Sunday bloody sunday

  • whats number 19?

  • @xxleandraxx1 Hawkmoon 269, from Rattle And Hum ;)

  • "I still havent found what ive been looking for" <3 this band is amazing every song is powerful! Makes me proud to be part irish!

    Socal girl~

  • no arguments with your top 3...well compiled

  • spanish eyes, miss sarajevo, i will follow, vertigo, elevation, desire, city of blinding lights.

  • beautiful day should have been number one. whats wrong with you guys.

  • U2, i can't live "with or without you", if you the "one" or not, "please", while i still have my "pride", don't feel "bad", because it's "Sunday bloody Sunday", and it's "a beautiful day". i "desire" your music. even if "i still haven't found what I'm looking for", you guys make me smile in "mysterious ways", if it wasn't for you i would go "numb", because your "magnificent". LOVE YA!!

  • @DylanZeNinja  Very clever!

  • @devans6507 i just went to the Miami, 360 tour, concert a while ago. most amazing thing i had ever seen!

  • @DylanZeNinja  I've seen them 4 times in Phoenix. Most recently with The Black Eyed Peas at (Arizona) Cardinal Stadium

  • i still havent found what im looking for should be at least at the top 10

  • All U2 songs are No 1

  • Where are Vertigo and Biutiful day man??

  • an interesting list but i can't believe you have i still haven't found what I've been looking for at only 24th place! for me, that's a clear #1!

    1. I Still Haven't Found ......

    2. Pride (In the Name of Love)

    3. I Will Follow

    4. All I Want is You

    5. Mysterious Ways

  • THE THREE IN THE TOP WITH OR WITHOUT YOU, WHERE THE STREETS HAVE NO NAME, PRIDE(IN THE NAME OF LOVE) IF YOU SAY THAT ONE IS BETTER THAN OTHER YOU ARE WRONG !!

  • @JordiRock94 RAWR. the alt-rock t rex has spoken.

  • THE THREE IN THE TOP WITH OR WITHOUT YOU, WHERE THE STREETS HAVE NO NAME, PRIDE(IN THE NAME OF LOVE) IF YOU SAY THAT ONE IS BETTER THAN OTHER YOU ARE WRONG !!

  • i love sunday bloody sunday

  • with or without you and where the streets have no names would have to be number 1 and 2 on most people's lists. two of the greatest songs of all time right there

  • My top songs

    1) Who´s Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses 2) One 3) Drowning Man 4) The Unforgettable Fire 5) Exit 6) Mofo 7) 11 O´Clock Tick Tock 8) Ultraviolet 9) New Year´s Day 10) The Ground Beneath Her Feet 11) Acrobat 12) Surrender 13) Original of the Species 14) With or Without You 15) Do you Feel Love

  • @utsa200410 That's a pretty different list! Props for having Exit and Mofo on there.

  • I like U2 2!!!

  • I couldn't do a top 10 nevermind a top 25. For example I couldn't in all honestly separate The Fly from Until the End of the World. I could just never sanction saying one of those is better than the other. And on and on I'd go, being unable to decide.

    But here's a few unusuals that would be around if I had to do a list. Three Sunrises, Drowning Man, Lady with the Spinning Head, Elvis Presley and America, A sort of Homecoming. Which means some absolute world classics wouldn't be included

  • For me is all u2 songs the best songs!!!

  • Love Heartland. Bad and Unforgettable fire superb. 

  • 1 must be number 1

  • Walk on is awesome

  • Where's "Stuck in a Moment You Can't Get Out of"?

  • this list made me a beautiful day

  • I cannot believe 'Sweetest Thing' is not even on the list.......that's sad

  • U2 is the best Irish band and probably the world

  • Miracle Drug...

  • wow.

  • New Years Day should be in the top 5, Pride in the name of love should be in top 10

    also Vertigo wasnt in it should be on the top 10, Elavation top 15, I still havent found what Im looking for top 10

  • Desire, Angel of Harlem, City of Blinding Lights, Elavation, even Vertigo??

    And Walk On shud b higher. It's an epic song!!!

  • stay should be 6th imo

  • i love u2!!! the soundstrack of the world!

  • Probably the worst ordered u2 top 25 ever. how do you people agree with this?

  • The quality of songs that have been left out reflect just how great U2 are.

    The funny thing is I would have at lease 10 different songs in my list, but which 10 would I leave out?????????????

  • All I Want is U2.

  • All I Want is U2.

  • Vetigo, Angel of Harlem, desire, City of blinding lights, Elevation ?

    but is a good list

  • i miss elevation and vertigo... ???city of blinding lights??? ;) no no, nice done dude

  • vertigo?

  • u 2 suck dick. psy trance for the win!

  • @Kamenos4ever And you comment that on a video made for U2 fans, why?

  • @Kamenos4ever psy trance? no.just no.

  • The POP album has been ignored on this clip....so it doesent count.

  • the only one is good is the first in the top 25, the others suck!

  • i like it... but, for me, KITE, PEACE ON EARTH and ONE TREE HILL are missing...

    lol

    anyway.. it's U2!!!

    the best band!

    cannot wait ton may the 14th...

    lol

  • vertigo??

    

  • #1 BAD

  • Sorry meant with or without you

  • Without or without you is where it should be :-)

  • No Desire? Larry Mullin would be pissed!

  • It is true , every one have different U2's top list becuase of what a song can make u remember... my fav u2's song is one :D

    very good list

  • i cant prefer in u2 songs

    because this band is the best band of all times

    and all the u2 music are great

  • original of the species meglio di sbs, pride, unforgettable fire?????? 6 pazzo?!

  • @qgbjwbgoihv: translation: original of the species better than sbs, pride, unforgett fire ecc... you're crazy!?!?!!?

  • Com certeza With Or Without You tem que se a primeira \o

  • still havent found what im looking for needs to be in the top 5 and kite should be in here too but other than that, its good

  • Nice list. I would have to add One Tree Hill. That's the song that made me a U2 fan.

  • No city of blinding lights?

  • I disagree with quite a few of them however your list shows a couple of songs that only huge fans remember such as myself which i respect

  • how can you miss all of those songs! those songs you named r all in the top 25 and you missed everyone of them!

  • great to see heartland in there !

  • definitly i agree with number 1 With or without you

  • 1.Zooropa 2.Walk On 3.The Fly 4.New Year's Day 5.The unforgettable fire 6.Where the streets are untitled:))) 7.Get on your boots 8.Beautiful day 9.One 10.With or Without you
  • This reminded me how much I love their older stuff (Unforgettable fire, war etc)

  • @kungfudancin Also, I love that U2 HAS 25 great songs and more for people to be arguing about putting in. Obviously a great band

  • man, great rank. your favorite era is definitely 87-93, which is mine to, but i have to ask you then where is exit? and where's bullet the blue sky? and well, call it a easy choise, but one is best song ever. there will never be a better song than one. i mean, even the title says it 1One 2All I Want Is You 3With Or Without You 4Exit 5Bullet The Blue Sky 6Stay (Faraway, So Close!) 7An Cat Dubh/Into The Heart 8Zoo Station 9Where The Streets Have No Name 10Lady With The Spinning Head
  • zooropa is in? and surrender not? strang top25 isnt it? and lemon? you act like you wont never had love and you want me to go out! Wire also not there? even not talking about seconds or mothers of the dissarered how you can make a top 25 from a band where lemon is in and not those kind of songs i recommend the refugee to you on the war album

  • Would be interesting to do this list every year to see how it changes. I would have to find room for Acrobat and Like a song. Seem to have a soft spot or longing for the songs that dont get played live at all of only very rarely. Thanks for the list though. Glad to see ultraviolet up there as its stood the test of time for nearly 20 years now. See my animation to Original of the species

  • WEIRDDDDDD...!!!!!

  • My top ten: 1. Where The Streets Have No Name 2. Pride 3. With Or Without You 4. New Year's Day 5. City of Blinding Lights 6. I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For 7. Heartland 8. Lemon 9. MLK 10. Bad
  • You did a very good job especially with your second pick great. Just to share my opinion, #8 is my favorite song ever.

  • beautiful day will always be my favoruite!!! U2 4evah!!

  • I love Lemon! Im glad it made this list. There are some other ones that Id rather see on here but its still good

  • good songs. but someone still needs to inform mr bono that his record had been broken.

  • I hate U2, but I love beautiful day! great song to sleep to i think. or cruisin with the window down!

  • Yeah, this hit list is almost like my own...I miss only one song..."so cruel"...

    greetings from poland - przemek

  • Where was Elevation and Vertigo!?!

  • love IS blindness

  • brillllliant. very well presented. impossible to name top 25 as their are way to many top songs. top 50 and id still struggle. good stuff.

  • New Years Day is the number one song.

  • my top 10 1. Where the streets have no name 2. Desire 3. City of blinding lights 4. Elevation 5. Bad 6. One 7. Bullet the blue sky 8. Beautiful day 9. Sunday bloody sunday 10. I still haven't found what i've been looking for
  • @irishninja822 man, where is "new years day" ???

  • Comment removed

  • @merin600 prbly like number 12 or 14 it just missed the cut

  • @irishninja822 10 should be 2

  • @irishninja822  good the 1 is the top

  • Bad is actually better live. :)

    Like the list.

    U2 ROCKS!!!

  • i love u2!;)

  • Thank for making this rating ;) Though there are some personal here, and of course Sunday bloody sunday,Beauteful day, should be placed higher, but what to other songs it looks like true. At least with or without you - the greatest song ever - and where the streets have no name are on the right place.

  • amazing pics with the songs.

    great job ^^

  • That's a good list. I always thought "Red Hill Mining Town" was in their top 5. Only U2 can pull off a song like that.

  • all these songs are AWESOME! i love them all!

    U2 IS AMAZING...=D

  • "Sometimes you can't makeit on your own" did win a Grammy

  • i love u2 they are my fav band and im only a tween!

  • Comment removed

  • What about vertigo and desire????

  • for me the rank is perfect! great job!

  • my dad named me after the `Joshua Tree` and im glad he did bcos i love u2 aswell so kl...my dads fav music

  • u2 is awesome!!!

  • I like your list. I have never seen anybody posting ZOOROPA as one of their best. In fact, people hardly know this song exists... and Please is an angry song... I love it....

  • This video is Awesome!!

    U2!!! :D

  • I honestly couldn't name favourites.I have very special emotionally attached songs,but they create feelings and they are stronger than thoughts.....which you have to use to choose I guess???

  • @U2ATOMIC

    i agree !!

  • Beautiful day is definitely one of the best songs of the decade

  • With or without you is a great song, i kinda skipped through it, my top would be,(not in order) With or without you, beautiful day, sometimes you cant make it on your own, walk on, where the streets have no name, bad, i still havnt found what im looking for, new years day,

  • the only ones i felt you missed were "running to stand still" and "bullet in the blue sky"

    but other than that great job :)

    most of my favs are in there: ultraviolet, bad, stay, streets, all i want is you, etc.

    AND i definately agree with you that "with or without you" is number one, it's my absolute favourite song of ALL TIME!!!!

  • ' BAD ' is soooooooooo GOOD !!!!

  • absolutely! that's my second favourite :D

  • Great stuff !!

    Well done . :)

  • boo your missing bullet the blue sky thats like number 2.

  • "Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

    Baby's got blue skies up ahead

    But in this I'm a rain cloud"

    This list seems empty without "The Sweetest thing"

  • in my opinion the best song by them is One.

  • Only disagree with No. 1. Where the Streets Have No Name is the greatest song of all-time. Bar none.

  • I have to basically agree with your list. I've been a fan for 20 years & most people like the popular songs. You've chosen my favs which are obscure songs. Until the End of the World, Love is Blindless, Please, Heartland, Original of the Species, Ultra Violet(Light My Way).

  • i say best songs are:

    vertigo, one, pride, yahweh, window in the skies, sunday bloody sunday, beautiful day

  • some people disagree with me, but my fave i think is 'miracle drug'. used to be 'new year's day' for the longest time.

  • where's if go will send his angels?! come on! COME on!

  • with or without u was repeated want it ?

  • Thanks so much for your wonderful comp. Some of these songs I haven't played in God knows when.

    So many of the Greats are gone, and I'm still not over Michael Jackson.

    God Bless U2.

    When I was a teenager, my faves were The Police, Michael Jackson and U2.

    U ask me to enter, and then U make me crawl, but I can't keep holdin' on, when all U got, when all U got is hurt!

  • Respect for this compilation mate.

  • ohhh wat bout the saints r comin? lol

  • 1. stay 2 . acrobat 3. ultraviolet 4. the fly 5. one............ without discussions, best 5. i can argue with you if you want, but i can vindicate this five anytime

  • the very best u2 is

    of all time

  • nice vid ;) but i gess "tomorow" should be on the list

  • AHH bloody sunday???

  • what?

    In my oppinion sunday bloody sunday is top 5....

  • yeah thats what i meant! would be my number 1-3

  • lol my bad then xD

  • Great selection ;) But there's more good songs <3

  • what about put on your boots?!?

  • "Tomorrow" should be on that list.

  • and what about "Bad" and "Electrical storm" ?

  • #3: magnificent #2: vertigo #1:pride

  • Until!

  • where is kite...???

  • One of the best song of u2 is kite, I was surprised when i didnt see it :)

    But pretty list :D

  • Great list. Just saw them in dublin there ont he 360 tour - awesome and so sorry I haven't booked tickets for another leg of their tour. The set list this time was a source of grumbles with a lot of people because they have so many damn amazing tunes.. even before the new album. If I were to critique your list I'd put bad as number 1 and add running to stand still somewhere in the top 10. And kite HAS to be in there. It's getting to the stage where a top 50 songlist will be needed.

  • ehhh...falto SO CRUEL entre las 10 primeras

  • the best u2 song is i still haven't found what i'm looking for

  • U2 is the greatest band ever!!!!! im going to see them in October for there new album. my first U2 concert. my favorite songs of theirs are kite, wild honey, whos gonna ride your wild horses, and crumbs from your table. but great list you have here.

  • ..........

  • people like different U2 songs for their own reasons. maybe it reminds them of something. so what if sunday bloody sunday is #18, that is the choice of the person who made this video, not you.

  • Thank you! :) And I also think that musical taste and relations to special songs are changing. At the moment I have a very intense relation to "So Cruel" - and I had not this relation when I made this video.

    I also think that I should do a "Top-30-video" by adding "Zoo Station", "So Cruel", "Acrobat", "No Line On The Horizon" and "Magnificent".
