St. Patrick’s Day is upon us and while there are no shortage of good drunken Irish pub songs and no shortage of mediocre Irish and Irish-posing punk (and dozens of sub-genre punks) songs, there’s only one playlist of U2 songs, which is a vaguely offensive way to commemorate the holiday by highlighting with almost zero methodology two tracks from their impressive catalogue of albums (except the awfully disappointing Songs of Surrender but definitely including their delightfully awful live album Rattle & Hum). Me mum’s mum’s maiden name is Groghan this is my holiday, too.
Stream the playlist at Apple Music here, or, check out the tracklist and stream it where ever you stream your music.
