I've got no idea, Shine Like Stars and Hear Us Coming are not snippets of other songs, there extra sections those songs. And when they play those extra sections of the song, it's always the full verse - not a snippet.

yeah that's right, so i was wondering why one is listed and the other not? it's quite odd really..

why do they sing these versions of With or Without You and One for a whole tour or two, and then only play these extras as nearly once-offs on later tours?

Because they are sick of playing the extended versions of those songs, it's not all that unusual really.

although i'm pretty sure most people like the extended versions...

This is true for U2 and other artists. But we have it better than some of those other artists. Prince for example hasn't ever played the full versions of Let's Go Crazy and Little Red Corvette since 1985. That's the biggest extreme I can think of.

Imagine if U2 stopped playing the full version of Where The Streets Have No Name in 1989! There would be riots going on!
