I'm not the biggest fan of Vertigo, but AIWIY is a bit similar to WOWY. Perhaps Stay if we want to take a risk. But Vertigo is a safe bet, maybe SYCMIOYO how did that do in the UK?
I don't even know want album Out of Control is from

What about SBS, lots of energy, and another signature song.
We have no Americans on the list, put Springsteen on
And might I suggest replacing Sgt Peppers with something that no one can dislike like Imagine.
. He does have some good stuff though
Originally posted by vanquish:And if Stay doesn't work (which I agree with), the Fly is definitely not going to work, most of my friends laugh at how weird it is, and the band left it off the best of 1990-2000 because it dated badly, and we're going by studio versions not live, which is important in this case.
Replace it with SBS and Kite/Vertigo?

Well, I haven't heard many people mentioning SBS, and it's also not in our top ten fan favorites. It's great, but I guess not great enough...
I don't really got the feeling Springsteen is that popular in England
U2 played Sgt. Peppers themselves, so that would make it a great song for this U2-list... But I'm not really into the Beatles...

I think we need a contemplative/soft Beatles song, not a rocker, something like Hey Jude, but thats too long (7 mins) so I suggest Imagine, RS 3rd greatest song of all time.
And Springsteen isn't really popular in UK, but some of his euro sounding suff would work.
Like Dancing in the Dark, I didn't even think it was sung by Springsteen until recently, with all the synth. It's a great song that will get people dancing guaranteed. It's also the most successfull single from Born in the USA, which has the record number of hit singles from an album (7).
UTEOTW has the same problems as the Fly, I think WGRYWH sounds more modern if we're choosing from AB.

lol...WGRYWH is exactly the song I dislike most of that album...
We'll put SBS there, it covers U2 begin period
And the rest of the list should stay like this IMO
