I've not really read back at all, but just giving my own opinion: Wild Honey. There are some poor songs on many U2 albums (as I'm sure has been pointed out, October is more bad than good), but none are quite as bland as Wild Honey. Listening to Wild Honey is like spoon feeding yourself a bag of flour.

Including everything, even all their collaborations:
Haiti mon amour
Maybe the only song that I hate that I know they were involved in any form.

Including no collaborations but Passengers:
I don't dislike none of it, but if I want to listen to Eno music, I'd rather play a Brian Eno album than this one, so even if I don't dislike them, pick almost any of the acoustic ones.

Including b-sides and rarities but no collaborations at all:
Two Shots of Happy, One Shot of Sad.
Similar to last one, if I ever wanted to listen Sinatra music (which I don't), I'd rather listen to him. I need to be in a very special mood to get into this one.

Including only the 13 albums:
4th of july, maybe.
And I like it, but if there was the need to sacrifice one song in order for U2 to exist, that would be the one I could live without.

Some comments on other songs:

Boots: Nice song, terrible lead single.
Stand Up: Nice b-side, very weak album track
Stranger in a Strange Land: Nice demo
The Refugee: Interesting b-side, weak album track

Miami: awesome
Grace: awesome
Scarlet: awesome
Numb: awesome
