Lights of Home and Landlady

I didn't really rate either to begin with. I really, really like them both now though.

Love is bigger than anything in it's way.

I reckon this could be the concert closer on the next tour.

Summer of Love and Red Flag Day. From meh to these are really great tunes.
The Edge: “[Eno] would love to see us making albums a bit more like [Zooropa]. Where we go, ‘You know what? We’re not going to second-guess any of this. Let’s just go for it.’”

U2 Fans: We'd all love to see that, Edge.

Love is All we Have Left

First few times I heard it I liked it. Thought it was a cool little hymn. Gave it a 7/10 on my review. Now I love it. It's the moody, experimental music that they do so well. It's sitting at an 8/10 now and may continue to rise.

Nothing's going to take off like Willy Wonka's elevator, but you really need to thoroughly absorb an album to truly appreciate it.

Almost The Showman - absolutely dismissed it at first listen as saccarine filler but it has been growing on me after recent listens.  But my vote would have to go to Landlady.  Beautiful musically and lyrically.

YTBTAM. Bottom 5 U2 song at first. Still in my bottom 3 on the album, but I can listen to it without my ears bleeding now.
