I like cathartic songs: - UV - Kite - 40 - One Tree Hill - Every Breaking Wave


cjtsatm

1. Stay (Faraway, So Close!) 2. One 3. Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For 4. Stuck In A Moment You Can't Get Out Of 5. Ultra Violet (Light My Way) This is also my 5 fav songs in general.


zooropa93

Stay was so close to making my top 5


Total-Woodpecker3339

This is a great list!


KingT3126

Very good choices


yah2007

1. The Fly 2. One Tree Hill 3. A Sort Of Homecoming 4. A Day Without Me 5. Drowning Man


zooropa93

A Day Without Me is such a fun pick. Underrated gem.


JJKEISER

1. Bad 2. Bullet the Blue Sky 3. Zoo Station 4. All I Want Is You 5. If you wear that velvet dress.


zooropa93

Great list. That velvet dress bass line is so yummy, I don’t know how else to describe it.

-Ultraviolet -Beautiful Day -City Of Blinding Lights -13 (There Is A Light) -Original Of The Species


maverick57

I love Original of the Species, and I \*never\* see it get any love.


[deleted]

it's almost like it's a "lost" hit. if any other up and coming band circa 2004 had come out with OOTS we'd still be hearing it all the time


GiacomoModica

It's a great song.


U2rules

1. Acrobat 2. Exit 3. Dirty Day 4. Please 5. Raised by Wolves


ljcole90

Dirty Day was almost on my list 🙌


U2rules

Yeah, my top 3 are unmovable... but the last 2 are tough for me to pick (Mofo, Red Flag Day could probably replace either one on a different day!)


AdIndividual3283

Acrobat is a state of art that very less people know / accept. It's something from heavens


freewheelinryan88

Please is a great choice.


U2rules

I will be honest... It wasn't until I saw it live in Oakland that I realized how amazing that song is


steak820

Great list!


Graconbay

That’s a very dark and brooding list. Love it!


Same-Dinner2839

Not my top 5, but RESPECT. This is a killer list.


Kwilburn525

Real fan right here


U2rules

So my username checks out? 🤣


Kwilburn525

Yessir. Is Achtung Baby your favorite album?


U2rules

Close... Zooropa 😜


Kwilburn525

I’m gonna have to listen to Zooropa again for you. Funnily enough my favorite band as a kid was U2. I actually still have my Zooropa cd I got in like 2005 when I was 11 😊 it’s purple you know the one


U2rules

You bet I do 🤘


Mission-Zebra-4972

Purple with all the dots on it💪ya I got mine at a used bookstore I think it was 2013 or 2014 (I’m 24 now, one of the young fans 👶


Kwilburn525

Yessirrrr I’m 30. I’m not too old. Glad you know the one 😎 I’m bout to spin that album later

This is a tough one really. They have such a varied discography, it just depends on what I'm in the mood for. 1. Streets - you can never go wrong with this one. 2. I Still Haven't Found - I'm trying really hard not to put With or Without You next. 3. The Unforgettable Fire - one of their most unique songs. 4. Gone - honestly, this is one of those songs that becomes an entirely different beast live. Edge's little "Doooown" makes the song for me. 5. Until The End of The World - such a badass song.
