U2 - Greatest Hits

The dvd part of the 1990-2000 videos. I love this because it has all of the videos from Achtung Baby to All That You Can't Leave Behind, along with some b-side videos, too which is so nice. One of the videos of Staring At The Sun is a video directed by Moreligh Steinberg (Edge's future wife at the time) and that version I like better actually. This does have extras, too. Such as the Trabant for ZooTV tour, and a special interview about Sarajevo.






What above is the cd version of the greatest hits (1990-2000). I like how they compiled these when Bono's voice wasn't feeling right. The cd version is a 2-disc with the singles on one, and the b-sides plus remixes on disc-2. My favorite version of Electrical Storm is on the second disc. The one thing I don't like about the cd version: there is no The Fly, but it's on the dvd. That's what I don't get, but that's okay. I can live with it.







The 18-single cd. I kind of don't understand the meaning of greatest hits for any band in that matter, but ok. This does have one new song called Window In The Sky which was recorded at Abbey Roads studio in London, also a song they collaborated with Green Day called The Saints Are Coming. That is also recorded at Abbey Roads studio. It says it in the booklet so I know. I like this minus there is no Gloria from October which is sad. Also no Unforgettable Fire, but on cd's you can't even put much on them.




The dvd portion of the cd above. This dvd has more videos, again minus the ones that I wanted to be on it: I Will Follow, Gloria, Unforgettable Fire, The Fly, and the list goes, but I can live with it. I like the One story which is an extra as well as other versions of their videos they made. There is a story of Vertigo on how they made that video, too. This dvd has the live video of The Saints Are Coming from the reopening of Superdome in NOLA. That was really nice that it got added into a video. All of these U2 posts I've done you can enjoy. If you want to add them to your collection.
