It's Less Than A Month

5 Jun 2009339
Last time out they floored everyone when they brought back tracks like Electric Co and An Cat Dubh from Boy - and they sounded good as new. Did it get you thinking about other tracks from the back-catalogue you'd love to see in the set?

With less than a month to go until opening night, there's lots of chat online about set lists. So let's say you had the chance to put one song into the show. An overlooked classic from the eighties? An underrated gem from the nineties? Something from Boy, or something from 'Bomb'.

Name that tune.... and tell us why ?

The need to play Acrobat. They never have played it live and it is just a great lost song.

I'd love to hear "MOFO" or "LEMON" because they get the crowd movin'. "11 O'CLOCK TICK TOCK" because it brings back my teenage days.

Two songs that I love, please, U2 boys : Party Girl and A Sort of Homecoming. And, once again, come to Brazil!

I really wish I could hear them play Miss Sarajevo. This is my first U2 concert. I haven't been a fan long, but have tickets for Chicago 1 and 2. Miss Sarajevo is the song that won my heart for U2. I've read Bill Carter's book and am hoping for the film rumored to be shot soon. PLEASE sing it Bono! Thanks, Beth aka Birdlover

Ultraviolet is a great song live and I'm sure this time Prez. Obama will be happy to get on the phone with Bono.

That album was totally underrated - even U2 is too critical of it. Songs like Gone, Please, Discotheque were awesome tracks. When I saw the Vertigo tour, they didn't even touch Pop. Time to revive that album...

Would love to hear Twillight, Unforgetable Fire, Acrobat and Ultra Violet. I know they're classics but don't want to hear Streets, Pride &Bloody Sunday - they're played at every U2 gig. I hope they play the whole new album live it's so good!

PLEASE play either "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me" or "Lemon" in September at the Rogers Centre! This will be my first U2 concert and these are two of my favorite songs!

I'll be in Milan the 8 of July and i'd really love to listen to The Fly, Two hearts beat as one, even better than the real thing, the unforgettable fire or The electric co. I think it'd be really great cause they sound very well!! Anyway if i had to choose just one, i'd say The Fly!

Wave of sorrow because it was remasterised and added to the Joshua tree just 2years ago and in this way has never been played during a live. It is such a wonderful song.Let's see if they will play it.

One Tree Hill or Exit would be amazing, otherwise I would loveto hear Stay. All three are just amazing songs that deserve to get played.

It would have to be Please, the only tour that this was played on was Pop and I missed that tour regrettably. How about another classic 11 o'clock tick tock don't thinkI have heard this one live since 1983.

I'll be very happy if they do "Party Girl" again in accoustic version as they did during the ZooTV Tour. "October" is also a great song, but I never get the chance to ear it live! If Bono feels like doing a cover, I'll be more than happy if he sings "Help" a capella again... I had aversion of that song sang a capellaby Bono and it sounded so beautiful... Please, do it again!
