    This wasn't my idea. I just posted it for someone :)

    Again, thanks to Rogue_Starbuck for this poll :)

    Thanks for posting my idea, RMCOY! :D

    I voted for The Joshua Tree. It's an amazing album, IMO. And I could listen to "With or Without You" for hours. :)

    The Joshua Tree, seeing as it's the only one I own. :)

    Sure, if you want to. I had to leave the Best Ofs, Rattle And Hum, and a couple of EPs out. However I left the 10th choice free if anyone wanted to pick one I hadn't listed. :)

    I can't believe I didn't post this myself.

    Achtung Baby, without a doubt. Brilliant work. Every song is very good, and several are classic.

    I'd love to see new posters in the U2 discussion thread :).

    Oh! :eek: Why didn't I think of this? :p

    I mean, I started the U2 Discussion thread and all... :D ;)

    This is a really tough call. I'm sure I will love all the songs on the Joshua Tree, but I don't own it, so I don't know them. From what is listed and what I have, it's a close call between Achtung Baby and All That You Can't Leave Behind. I love both albums *so* much. In the end though, I went with AB as I love each and every song, where as with ATYCLB the last few songs aren't as great (IMHO) as the rest of the album.

    I had to go with Other since my favorite U2 album changes daily. Today it's October. I could list what it was day to day, but I'm sure you would all grow tired of that very quickly. ;)

    Surely there must be other U2 fans out there.

    *Runs in the door

    Of course there's more U2 fans out there KW! :p I voted for the Joshua Tree, because the quality of the songs is incredible and I could listen to "Where the streets have no name" and "With or Without you" for hours. Plus, it has a great sound to it that makes it uniquely U2. :)

    KW: "Do not assume anything KW. Clear your mind must be if you wish to find more U2 fans" :D

    Achtung Baby shouldn't be trailing anything.

    The Joshua Tree is a fantastic album, but Achtung Baby! is better...

    Wow. I agree TJT is great, but I think AB is U2 at it's very best.
