Please. Just amazing. I even like the album version more, because of its rawness: its message comes across as more pure.

Please by a mile. One of their heaviest songs in recent times, and the video is so simple, yet with a brilliant message in it.

Agree completely.

I thought and thought about it and went with Please. This song is deep, it's such a great plea. While SBS is a good rallying cry, please really gets down to it and tears your heart out. Lyrically it's just outstanding, and that guitar solo is something else..along with Bono wailing in the live versions

Please has like 47% of the vote so far. WTF? At the risk of being shot down in flames, it's not only the worst song in this batch it's one of the worst songs they've ever recorded.

Certainly the worst lead in to Streets, but that's another topic.

Hhahahahaah you convinced me, Jeremy Thanks

PS. Where is New Year's Day? I think it's one of theirm most political songs, even more than LaPoE, which is more religious/spiritual than political...

PS II. I went for Please eventually

Hahahaha, classic.

I'm sure there's a song I adore which you can't stand though.
