Originally posted by LikeASong:Not in their studio incarnations. Sure Bad has been a definitory moment in a lot of U2 shows since 1984 specially with all the usual snipettry, etc... But Streets is THE song, both in studio (which was the version contending) and live forms. Even Bono once recognised that any show can be good, average or so-so until Streets arrives, then the show becomes epic.

I'd say both Bad and Streets have really poor studio versions compared to live. I don't think any of them wins if we're talking studio versions.

That Streets intro doesn't get you every time?

Only live, the intro on the studio version is weak compared to what it is live.
