With Or Without You/U2

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EzeDqRhM09w

This song is powerful on so many fronts. Mullen's purposeful 8-beat rhythm. The steady chugging of Clayton's bass guitar. The Edge's entry at 1:51. Bono's fantastic vocal pitching. This song was one of the first songs ever to incorporate the "4 chord" pattern which has become the staple of emo/pop-rock musicians today. An aural treat.
