This is a cool thread, and I wouldn't dare to hazard a guess at what
might go on it, and I definitely wouldn't try and choose what songs I
would like to see...that would just be too hard! However, one thing i
just have to say is that I think people who get involved in this thread
forget about 2 things. First, I am sure that there will be some tunes
from the new album on the next best of. after all, the completion date
is set for around fall next year, or so they say now ;) The second
thing is that everyone seems to forget PASSENGERS! Now, that may not be
the best U2 album, and it may not even be considered a U2 album, but
Slug and Your Blue Room are 2 of the bands finest songs from this
decade. I am not trying to flame anyone, its just that every list I see
only includes Achtung baby, Zooropa, and POP. These 3 albums alone do
not provide enough material to generate a true best of. This is not to
say that I don't think that they have enough great songs, it's just that
3 albums cannot truly define the decade. Anyway, this is just my
opinion. As usual, comments are always welcome.

Achtung.
John.
