I was worried someone would say this. At first listen I didn't like this song but man oh man has it grown on me.

I see Wild Honey as their Dead Flowers

Hmmmm....Is that a good thing? I always thought Dead Flowers (you're referring to the one by The Stones, right?) was a decent track.

For me Wild Honey isn't great but it's far from their worst.

Off topic but Dead Flowers is great ! Again a slice of jaunty country rock/americana with a very dark subject matter and lyrics. '...sitting in my basement room with a needle& a spoon ' Written in 1971, edgy.

I was never crazy about "Cedars of Lebanon".

Ouch, right in my heart

It is a pretty weird song for U2 though, I can understand that it might not appeal all around.

As i was reading you, there's one song i'm not fond of (since my early years, before becoming a fan) is Pride.
I know the meaning and everything (don't get me wrong it's a good subject), but maybe it's because i heard it too much on radio and everywhere in the 80's, even now after all these years (please don't hate me )
So now i can listen to it once, but not as much as every other u2 songs.

And my least listened album (beside October, i don't have it) is ATYCLB. A too soft album (except 2 or 3 songs i love)

I would have said Pride - until they played it in Glasgow and it was epic.

Anything on NLOTH with the exception of Magnificent and Unknown caller would get my vote.
