    Who would have thought

    I would have waited a few more days to publish this, though... Maybe until the anniversary itself!
    I can always update later on it but I would request that people please don't number their lists & please do put the "The" on songs like The Electric co. & The unforgettable fire to save me hours of boring work !!

    can you provide us with those? the 3 favorites of each bandmember I mean?

  7. Like others have said, this was tough to do. But fun, as well...

    My list sort of lined up with what I thought it would be according to my favorite decade of U2 - 19 from the 90s, 15 from the 80s, and 6 from 2000s/2010s. I also included two songs that are technically just Bono and Edge, if I am correct (She's a Mystery and Two Shots), and a Passengers song (YBR). Those count, right?
