One without a single first place vote! Also surprised With or Without You won by such a landslide.

Great poll as always Holden!

Thanks! Never quite understood that as the #1 choice. Definitely top ten U2, but for me it always seemed like a blueprint, that they built off of in other songs.

Thanks for the presentation, Holden. The album results are logical, although I would put their 2000 album a bit higher. There seems to be a consensus about their five to seven top songs, but it remains hard to put those in order.
