Recommended Posts

I have started getting into U2 ever since I bought u218 Singles. Anyway I was wondering what are the essential U2 albums and/or songs for a cash strapped American teen? I was thinking about getting 80-90, 90-2000, and Achtung Baby.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I currently have:

 

 

 

The Joshua Tree

 

 

 

The Best of 1980-1990

 

 

 

U218 Singles

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So far here is my list of what I am thinking about buying (by order of release date):

 

 

 

albums:

 

 

 

Achtung Baby

 

 

 

Best of 1990-2000

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Songs:

 

 

 

Stories for Boys

 

 

 

A Day Without Me

 

 

 

A Celebration

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Recommendations so Far-

Wow you are right-- there are only three good songs on How to Dismantle... - Vertigo, All Because of You, and Fast Cars. Thanks for warning me (and thank you Youtube for having songs for free viewing). I'm going to go have a "talk" with my friend. :twisted:

Achtung Baby. Skip that song that starts with an O and ends with an E. There's only one letter inbetween and it has been recentely covered by Mary J. Blidge. Huuu. I hate it.

I hate that song too. The best version is Automatic Baby's cover. Automatic Baby was a supergroup of Michael Stipe, Mike Mills (R.E.M.'s vocalist and bassist, respectively), Adam Clayton, and Larry Mullen Jr. (U2's bassist and drummer, respectively) Watch this video of their only live performance-

In fact if anyone knows where to buy this, I will be very grateful.
