It's nearly Easter! As most of our [livejournal.com profile] poptimists will be supping fine beverages at the Union Tavern tomorrow, the Good Friday Canon has been shifted forward to Maundy Thursday Canon. And who better to feature than everyone's favourite Cafflick* boys, U2. What a rubbish name for a band! It hasn't stopped Bono and the boys being really rather successful though, 39 hits = 13 ticks for you lot to dish out...

*NB This may be untrue but whatevs I needed a tenuous link.

'Lemon' had a (good) video and some (not bad) remixes (inc the Oakenfold mix that turned into Grace's 'Skin On Skin') but was never a single - odd.

Other U2 songs I like:

I Will Follow
Sunday Bloody Sunday (cor, i know the feeling boys!)
Bullet The Blue Sky (live Zoo TV version at least)
Numb
Daddy's Gonna Pay... (just for the intro and drums)
Mofo!/Pop Muzik (Live @ Popmart)

i can't really defend any of them very well tho

it was deemed quite controversial at the time i believe - too politically sensitive for a proper single release probably
