    Sweetest Thing
    Vertigo (red one)
    Electrical Storm (with remixes)

    Miss Sarajevo, If God Will Send His Angels and Please are underway


    That Please single is fantastic. Didn't like the Discotheque single too much but so far the hardest for me to find is The Sweetest Thing.

    How did you get your singles?

    Yeah, the Unforgettable Fire ones are way too overpriced. Unless you get them on cassette which you can do pretty cheap.

    Nice set of singles! For me I think I've got from memory:

    Get On Your Boots (CD)
    The Saints Are Coming (sealed)
    Window In The Skies (CD1, CD2, DVD)
    Vertigo (CD1, DVD)
    Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own (CD)
    All Because of You (CD)
    City of Blinding Lights (CD)
    Beautiful Day (Video single)
    The Best of 1990 - 2000 (DVD single)
    If God Will Send His Angels (CD)
    Please (CD)
    Last Night On Earth (CD)
    Staring At The Sun (CD)
    Mofo Remixes (CD)
    Discotheque (CD)
    Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses (CD)
    The Fly (CD)

    It seems the Pop / Achtung Baby ones are the easiest to come across. I'm looking for a DJ acetate with Supercity Mania on it - from about late 1996 but I'm not sure whether it was just a vinyl, proper pressed CD or just a burnt one. Those I haven't seen anywhere, but it'd be great to know if the record company actually did have them and did send them out or just destroy them.

    I would say it would be more collectible than the Three EP.

    And maybe I'll get the Magnificent 7'' vinyl tomorrow afternoon. Maybe...unless I see a CD single before then.
  4. Busy with some HTDAAB singles right now. Love the COBL cover from the promo, but can't find it anywhere.

    Curious to that Supercity mania too... If you get it, I would like a Mp3 rip or so
  5. Oh and by the way. The Lemon Promo with the Lemonade mix is awesome. I have the audio in lossless and that mix is probably even better than the album version.

    I liked that City of Blinding Lights cover as well, but if I get Supercity Mania it will be here, first.
  7. The COBL promo is easy to come by on ebay. Very cheap to. I'm lucky to have aquired every CD single from Joshua Tree onwards as well as radio promos for 75% of them. Absolute favorite is easily Stay. Thee best physical release they have ever put out.
