Are You Gonna Wait Forever is the best since AB certainly.
Do U2 decide the B-sides or the record company? They do seem a bit shit recently. But JuJuman is right, other bands don't bother either. Is it because of mp3 do we think?
I liked (not loved) some of the HTDAAB b-sides like Smile, Fast Cars, Are You Gonna Wait Forever (I think there's others I can't remember too).
Are You Gonna Wait Forever had some fantastic guitar and a soaring chorus, but the verses and lyrics could use some work.
But they are still way off the AB/JT B-side renaissance.
Perhaps we'll see a resurgence with NLOTH considering they have a lot of material leftover from the sessions and the fact that NLOTH2 was a remix that was arguably better than the original track.
