On Tuesday, March 2nd, U2 will release their 12th studio album No Line On the Horizon here in the United States. In honor of this forthcoming event, I got to thinking about what my personal favorite U2 mix would be. Not sure how many U2 fans we have on the boards but I figure most folks have enough knowledge of their music that they should be able to complete a mix list. But there are RULES! Oh yes, there are always rules! Here they are:

 

  • You must create a 14 song mix, no more, no less.

  • You must choose at least one song from each of U2

    Great choices from DOM, Acres, and Kberto. I am especially interested to see the variety of choices from "Achtung Baby." That was a hard one for me. I went with "One" because it is so iconic. But I also really really like "The Fly." When that song came out I was all "***...this is U2."

     

    DOM, I agree with you on Rattle and Hum. U2 was at their self-indulgent best (or worst) on that record.

     

    "Joshua Tree" and "Unforgettable Fire" has a lot of variance as well.
