  3. I'm sure they will debut Reach Me Now in NYC
  5. Was trying to find it somewhere, but have they ever played even a snippet of Love Comes Tumbling?
  6. To my knowledge, Love Comes Tumbling has never been played in any format live.

    It's so funny that you mention that, because I was just speaking with a friend in NY the other day about this song and Luminous Times...
  7. Both brilliant in their own ways, but I thought Love Comes Tumbling could actually be a legit single, especially in the in-between years from UF->JT

    Slower ballad-y types were all the rage. The fact that its never even been played live is astonishing to me
  8. Larry probably would say the drum cadence was too hard. Or something. Similar to 'Red Hill Mining Town'.

    Possibly true. Could be any number of reasons. Its one of my faves and I just wish I could get even a snippet tied to something else.
  11. Here is an album to album list of what has never been played live:

    U2 has played most of their officially released album tracks in concert at one point or another in their career. The following is a list of songs, organized by album, that have never been played during a live performance.


    Boy: all have been played
    October: Stranger In a Strange Land, Is That All?
    War: Drowning Man, The Refugee, Red Light
    The Unforgettable Fire: Promenade, 4th of July, Elvis Presley & America
    Wide Awake in America: The Three Sunrises, Love Comes Tumbling
    The Joshua Tree: Red Hill Mining Town
    Rattle and Hum: Heartland
    Achtung Baby: Acrobat (was performed only in soundchecks and rehearsals for Zoo TV, but never in an actual concert)
    Zooropa: Some Days Are Better Than Others
    Pop: The Playboy Mansion (snippets were sung after "Streets" at some PopMart shows, but never the full song)
    Best of 1980-1990: all have been played
    All That You Can't Leave Behind: Peace On Earth (never the full song), When I Look at the World (never the full song), Grace
    Best of 1980-1990: Electrical Storm
    How To Dismantle an Atomic Bomb: A Man and a Woman, One Step Closer

    Although never performed live, "4th of July" was used as intro music before several Unforgettable Fire Tour concerts. It was played over the PA system as the band were taking the stage.
