#14 - The Joshua Tree by U2

Album Sales: 11,800,000
Release Date: March 1987

Number Ones =*

Track listing:

1) Where the Streets have no name
2) I still haven't found what I'm looking for*
3) With Or Without You*
4) Bullet in the Blue Sky
5) Running To Stand Still
6) Red Hill Mining Town
7) In God's Country
8) Trip through your Wires
9) One Tree Hill
10) Exit
11) Mothers of the Disappeared

Great, just what I didn't want to do, abuse this album. Many people LOVE U2, I love few songs, and like few songs. I HATE a lot of them. I own this album, and maybe it was the fact that Desire was a much much better song, that made me feel that this album wasn't as great as everyone else made it. Did I used to like these songs? Yes. But over the long haul, unless "With or Without You" is your song with someone, this album is repetitive and the songs are long and boring. Yes, I said it. LONG AND BORING. I'll go one further, the video's aside from "Where the Streets have no name" were channel changers. The only songs that I like off this album are Bullet in the Blue Sky and In God's Country.

U2 would strike it rich with me with Achtung Baby, which won't appear on this list. After that they went totally down hill.

Album rating: 7 only because anything lower would start a riot.

Need to own: Oddly, I think people should own this album because of the lackluster greatest hits made years ago.
